look, i’ve never even seen the mixtape scene™️ in context and yet. whenever a fic mentions it i go absolutely fucking feral. and when the author makes up a very specific tracklist?? chooses songs with destiel-specific lyrical significance?? maybe even uses them as chapter titles?? like houses of the holy??? “there’s an angel on my shoulder / in my hand a sword of gold / let me wander in your garden / and the seeds of love i’ll sow” ?? I eat it up every time!! And then they listen to it and it’s like. the lyrics perfectly articulate the shit dean thinks he can’t say to cas with his own voice so he talks to him through plant’s voice?? Also if they sprinkle a little something in there like dean going “yea actually robert plant’s voice is really fucking hot, maybe listening to him moan on dazed and confused was my queer awakening” idk man, it’s like crack to me
