An Headcanon

One read you could technically take away from Supernatural is that Cas’s true final form will be as a literal fish swimming out to sea. There’s so much fish imagery around him, it’s a legit interpretation of canon. I can almost hear echoes of Dean...

*insert harp cascade and rippling dream sequence effect here*

“I WANT HIM TO JUST KEEP SWIMMING! I’M NOT GONNA APOLOGIZE FOR LOVING THAT FISH! NOT TO YOU, NOT TO ANYONE!”

Great. Now I can’t stop thinking about fish!Cas swimming off into the sunset with salmon!Dean.

It was a long time ago, but I can’t forget your post that contained fish!Cas. The post was awesome, but I’ve already done two fanarts with fish!Cas(that I’ll never show to anyone) and can’t help but think about such fic.

OH MY GOD.

YOU DREW FISH!CAS?!

oh dear me… I want to hang your artwork up in the gallery wing in my head I’ve already got devoted to Salmon!Dean.

Why can’t you show us?! I would legit cry. ohmygosh! :’)

Because salmon!dean is back, now that Jared apparently caught a salmon and named it Dean

[brainheartpizza]

The stunning conclusion to the epic adventures of salmon!dean.  

Castiel saves the day, because he is a BAMF.

This nonsense ended up being ~3K words, and what’s frightening, really frightening, is that it EASILY could have been more than that.

The Adventures of Salmon Dean (pt. 1)

[I don't know how to art, so I did this instead. WHY? It is a little bit the fault of @seperis but they shouldn't take the blame I really should own up to it myself.] Dean is in a bad fight with a witch. A very bad fight, a very powerful witch. Pretty much the usual for him, right? Right, except that this time, the witch doesn't find him as charming as most of the witches usually do, and she turns him into a salmon. Why a salmon? Why not a frog, that's a pretty standard witchy thing, isn't it? Who knows, maybe she has some kind of deal with fish-kind, maybe she used to be (or still is) a mermaid, maybe salmon is the last thing she ate and that's just how the spell works. "Works" we have to say loosely here, because even after the spell is complete, Dean finds himself still (1) able to breathe air, (2) wearing shrunken down fish-shaped versions of his plaid and leather jacket, and (3) standing on two tiny fish-proportioned bowlegs. Or maybe this was all intentional, this witch was pretty inscrutable (see previous re: not finding Dean charming and the idea to turn him into a salmon in the first place). It's a good thing about the legs though, because even though he can breathe the air, he doesn't really like it, and he feels all dry and itchy. His newly acquired fish-sense is giving him a pretty good idea of where to find water (from tiny, human-transparent traces of humidity in the air, maybe?), but he wouldn't be able to flop that far from his present location in the now-empty spell circle in the woods without his tiny legs. And he's glad he doesn't have to, that would be undignified. He starts to run towards the water as fast as his little legs will carry him. But, uh-oh, new complication. He passes by the entrance to a cave that is currently occupied by a mama bear and her two cubs. Here's what we need to know about bears for the present purposes: (1) they like to eat salmon and (2) millions of years of evolution have shaped their perceptual system such that it orients automatically when something moves quickly in their peripheral vision. What these two facts combine to mean, then, is that there is almost literally nothing on the planet that would capture the attention of a bear more completely than a salmon, moonlight flashing off its scales, scampering by the entrance to their cave in the middle of the night. The bears give chase. "Fuck," salmon Dean says, "I am being chased by bears." Actually, he doesn't say this, his mouth just kind of gapes open and shut a few times, the way the mouths of fish do when they are out of the water. Right, fish don't have vocal chords (even when they can breathe gaseous oxygen, apparently). He pumps his tiny bowlegs faster. Fortunately for salmon Dean, these bears have been living in close proximity to this inscrutable witch's circle for long enough that they are a bit wary about just chasing full tilt after any weird creature that appears in front of their cave. So they follow salmon Dean, but they follow him at a distance that says "we have been burned by seemingly edible half-fish creatures exploding in balls of eldritch fire before." They follow him right to the water's edge, and when he scampers in (in a very dignified manner, the most dignified ever entrance into a water feature by a bowlegged fish being chased by three bears in the history of bears, in fact) they all sit down on their furry bear haunches and start grooming their paws. Their reasoning (such as it is), is that if salmon Dean doesn't explode in a ball of eldritch flame by morning, he will probably be safe to eat. Then they will eat him, obviously. Salmon Dean doesn't know this, he thinks he has escaped into the river, erroneously believing that bears aren't willing to follow their prey into the water. He settles down behind a rock, where the current doesn't pull so hard, eyes just peeping out so he can keep an eye on the bears, just in case, while he takes a rest, lets his scales get wet again (ah, it feels so good), and thinks of a plan. [TO BE CONTINUED. WHERE IS SAM? WILL SALMON DEAN EXPLODE IN A BALL OF ELDTRICH FLAME? WHAT WILL BE HIS PLAN? WE WILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND FIND OUT!]

I’m expecting fanart of a salmon with a leather jacket and bowlegs now, fandom.
