#Dean's angel

[drulalovescas]

You gotta appreciate Supernatural for going above and beyond to let the audience know that Cas was Dean's

[damnikindadontcare]

Peak unintentional comedy in Supernatural was the angels forcing Cas to pick between them and Dean with full confidence that he’d pick them and Cas picking Dean not even 2 seconds later.

i was thinking the other day how we tend to draw cas and dean (correctly tbh) like

but in doing so we are betraying another fundamental dynamic of theirs which is more like,

"iT wAs UnReQUitEd LoVe"

Literally dean:

[deancasforcutie]

"your angel" with such little context is another way of saying "your sweetheart" romantically and well. they're not wrong

i love destiel so much but i also need castiel to sock dean winchester in the jaw every other episode

Obsessed with the sudden shift in Cas' willingness to say insane romantic shit to dean in season 8. A couple of seasons ago, he would tell dean that they had a profound bond to his face. That everything he did, he did for Dean. Now? He's hesitating. He clenches his fists to avoid hugging Dean back in purgatory. He stutters and looks away before saying he stayed away from Dean to protect him. When asked what broke through heaven's brainwashing, he looks away and says he doesn't know. It's so interesting to me

Hello Dean

[phrysic]

ghostfacer episode if it was better

[drulalovescas]

the funniest thing about castiel gotta be how he always touched Dean when healing him while never touching anyone else.

Never anyone that wasn't Dean.

it's season 16. destiel is fully reciprocated canon. dean and cas are swapping spit when cas pulls back to say in a very low and serious tone, "the fact that you are biologically male is of No Consequence. i will impregnate you, dean winchester." dean's eyes widen, he's confused and lowkey scared but also weirdly flattered and pathetically turned on

We know Castiel is based on Cassiel the archangel but my favorite little headcanon is that he was the archangel Cassiel.

He was created as the angel of Saturday, patron of the vulernable and the overlooked, the angel of tears, angel of temperance.

But that was it, wasn't it? Castiel lacked temperance -- He could never be like the other angels, God hadn't created him to be a warrior like his brothers; Cassiel was a gift to humans, the angel of strife and duality, something so fundamental to humanity. The only angel who could really understand them. The angel who sat and watched, waiting to be called upon to deliver peace. Cassiel was God's love for humanity. How could God not know Cassiel would get too close, too involved with humankind? Maybe he did, but he could never know his own love would ever defy him. Maybe he could never know that whatever he burned with his divine love was also scorched with his divine wrath, enough of it to break ranks when he finally tired of watching Heaven play with the Earth.

So God punished him, bent him into the shape of a solider and named him the shield of God as a reminder of what his role had always been. But Cassiel was special, he would always be special, so he disguised Cas, protecting him from the persecution of the other angels. Maybe he even wipes it all from Cas' mind, gets rid of the memory of rebellion before Cas can hurt himself with it again.

And Castiel does it right this time. He stays just as detached as he needs to be, he protects only who he needs to protect, he does only what he is told to do. So God gives him another chance, another opportunity to prove himself with something big, the perfect task for his angel of the vulnerable.

Go fetch Dean Winchester.

What could go wrong?

It's 2025, you're watching a spn episode where dean and castiel have to steal the bow from a cupid who has made a gay couple fall in love for a spell whose remaining ingredients also have to do with angel-human love, and you laugh.

You laugh histerycally.
