A Memory or Me (Pt 3/3)

Sam Winchester x Reader
You and Sam finally talk
You and the boys were in a motel in Corpus Christi Texas. You'd helped Garth wrap up a hunt in New Mexico a few days before and was actually without an active case. 
Sam had wanted two adjoining rooms but when the receptionist told you there was one room left you took it. At least it had two beds. 
“Sure you don't want Sam to share with you?” You asked Dean from where you sat cross legged in the center of one of the beds. You and him both had already showered and was just waiting for Sam to get out.
He'd been laying down but sat up at your words “Did something happen?” You shook your head and he didn't seem convinced “You've been acting off since we were at Bobby's. Now are you gonna tell me while it's just us or should I keep pushing until Sam joins us too?”
You shouldn't admit it to Dean, you knew that yet once he asked the truth spilled out of you “I love him Dean and I heard the two of you talking at Bobby's. He doesn't love me because I'm not soft and gentle. I can't compete with a ghost Dean. I won't” you tried not to let tears escape but when the first few fell Dean was on his feet pulling you up into a hug “Come on now Y/N. It's not like that I swear”
After a moment you pulled back to look up at him “He told her he loved her five months in. We're now at thirteen months. I never should've thought I could compete with a memory. I've tried to tone myself down, not be as much but it's not working. I can't keep doing this”
____________
About that time the bathroom door opened. You looked back to see Sam standing there looking between you and his brother “What's going on?” You could see a flash of possible jealousy in his she's until Dean dropped his arms from around you and said“She's upset. I was checking on her” 
Sam nodded and looked at you “Baby, why are you upset” “It's stupid” you tried but Dean cut his eyes at you “No its not”
You begged him with your eyes to let it go but instead he blurted out “She thinks you don't love her” Sam's eyes flicked from Dean to you so fast it was damn near comical “What?” 
“You two are gonna talk. I'm gonna go sleep in baby” Dean announced. “That's not fair to you” you told him trying to avoid the hurt you saw in Sam's eyes but he shook his head “No, you and Sam are the most important people to me. Figure it out I'll see you come morning”
You watched him walk out then turned back towards Sam. He motioned at the door “So are you gonna talk to me or just my older brother?” You took a deep breath “I know you don't love me because I'm not housewife material. I'm not Jess” “Is that what you think?”
You nodded feeling tears spring to your eyes. Damn you never cried like this. Sam was quickly in front of you pulling you into his arms “Don’t cry baby please”
You buried your face into his chest. You loved him so damn much it hurt “I love you Sam but I know I won't ever compare to Jess” he gently pulled you back from his chest and leaned down just enough to look you in the eyes “You're right. You're nothing like Jess” 
A few more tears slipped free of your eyes and he quickly brushed them away “But I don't want you to be like Jess. Yeah I loved her but not the way I love you and by the way I do love you Y/N. You make me so damn happy. After her, I thought I was done. That I'd never let anyone in ever again. But you...you walked right in without even knocking. And I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Yes you're a hurricane but I don't mean that badly. I mean you're strong, you're unpredictable, you're beautiful and deadly when pushed but you're gentle in your own way. How you help the vics after hunts, the way you make sure Bobby's house is clean and he has meals in the freezer any time we go through. The way you make sure me and Dean eat regularly and drink actual water sometimes. You're the perfect balance in this insane life of mine and you make it so much better. I love you please don't ever doubt that”
You knew he was being genuine from the look in his eyes. He was panicked that you wouldn't believe him and hurting that you'd thought that to begin with “Will you just kiss me Sam?” The smile that slipped onto his face was nothing short of gorgeous “Never think you have to ask me just tell me to kiss you” then he pulled you into a kiss. 
Tumblr media
The next morning Sam was half asleep when he heard the door of the motel open and quickly pulled the blanket up over your bare body before glaring at Dean who stood in the doorway with a broad grin “I see you two made up” “Get out Dean” he warned but Dean simply laughed “I'm gonna go pick up breakfast”
The door shut behind Dean and Sam looked down to see you looking up at him “He's an ass but means well” he nodded “He's forgiven because once again he pushed us to where we need to be” you laughed lightly “One day He's gonna cash in on us owing him” Sam laughed and pulled you into a kiss “That's for another day. I love you” you smiled “I love you too. Now let's go grab a quick shower before he gets back with food”

Okay so, I wrote another one @g-on-ef @pink-mask-06 @spotsandclawsthings
PLEASE DO NOT COPY
⚠️MENTIONS OF SA⚠️
Maya- age 15
OH MY GOD!!!!! I'm so excited right now, I'm going on a datecwith this really cute guy at school. He got that James Dean daydream look in his eyes. Dad and Niko were not agreeingto this, but mom convinced them like a queen
"I can't believe that you're going on a date, I'm so happy for you!!!"
Mia signs. A deep feeling of guilt settled in me, its because of me, I know it. Mia sees my sad expression and signs
"What happened?Why are you sad?"
"It's....Nothing. Its just nervousness"
"Why is my confident diva bitch is nervous?"
"Oh please don't act like Anikka"
We both laughed and I hugged Mia and said
"I love you Mia, you are my hero"
"Aww, I love you too"
Mia left me alone in my room so that I could get ready. While doing my makeup, I got a call. Without checking the caller ID, I picked up the call
"Why the fuck are you going on a date when I told you not to?!"
I froze as I heard the poisonous voice of Pratt. But I won't let her control me, she is controlling me enough to make my life hell.
"You can't tell me what to do!!" I said angrily
"What did you just say to me?!"
She is angry, she usually gets angry like this when she is about to punish me. I hesitated a bit but I was determined.
"I said you can't control me anymore, are you fucking deaf!!"
"HOW DARE YOU TALKING TO ME LIKE THAT, I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU!!"
I pulled my phone away from my ear, she's so fucking loud!
"Stop barking like a dog. Oh wait, calling you a dog is an insult to the species of dogs, you are much worse than that. You know what you can't control me. Show me your worst bitch!"
"You-"
Before she can say anything I cut the call. Do I feel good? HELL YES!!. I won't let her control me. Just then Mia barged into my room
"Hurry up, he's here"
"What???It's too early"
"No dummy, its already 7 pm"
I flipped her off, took my belongings and went outside. There he was standing with a bouquet.
"Hey, are you ready?" he asked me.
"Yeah, let's go" I was blushing like crazy. The date went well and he also asked me out for a movie date!!!! When I reached home, my dad asked
"How are you? Do I need to kill somebody?" . I was annoyed, like I get it that dad is overprotective of Mia and me, but this is too much
"Dad no, come on, not all the boys are bad"
"I'm not sure about it" he said
Just then mom came in and said
"Kyle stop, leave that poor boy alone"
"Are you on my side or that guy's side"
"The guy's side, now come to the dinner table"
WOW, that was personal. My mom always kept my dad in check
"Honey do you want to eat dinner?" mom asked me
"Sure mom"
Even though I already ate dinner, I wanted to spend time with my family. I want to make many happy moments with them. before everything goes downhill, well I'm nit so sure about that. In next life, I don't want to live in guilt, I want to be free, I don't wabpnt to get abused. Suddenly, I got a text, it was from Pratt which said
"You're going to pay for this in the worst way"
I ignored the text and focused on my food. She's only going to beat me with a stick or worse with a belt.
After the dinner was over, I went to my room, did my skincare routine and went to sleep
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My eyes snap open as I had a nightmare in which everyone found out about the truth of Mia's kidnapping and my family disowned me. I was covered in sweat and was thirsty. I tried to take my water bottle from the nightstand. I was not able to, I realized that my hands are tied to the bedpost. I tried to call for help but I realized that my mouth is taped. I was scared, I tried to loosen the ropes but failed.
"Stop struggling my rosie, its of no use" OH NO, it was Pratt.
I didn't listened to her and started trashing on the bed. But then she punched me hard on my stomach. Hard enough to make me scream. SLAP
"Stop making fucking noise!"
What she did next traumatized me for life. She started undressing me
"I'm so angry right now Maya, you shouldn't have disobeyed me"
I was struggling against the ropes but it was of not use. She started hitting my breasts with her stick. I let out a muffled cry, begging her to stop but she didn't. But then she spread my legs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After 2 painful hours she finally stopped. I was raped and I was not able to defend myself. I started crying again even though my eyes were puffy
"Shh....rosie don't cry, this was for your good only, you know I love you"
NO YOU FUCKING DONT!!! She then untied me and said
"Now, if you tell anyone, I'll kill your family in front of you in the most painful way" After saying this she disappeared from my window. I went to the bathroom and turned on the shower to the highest temperature and stood there until my body was burning. How can I let this happen to me!!! I just want to die.

Somehow Supernatural
Chapter 5: Witch Women Run The World
Summary: Casey meets Rowena.
Tags: oc!character, teen!oc, superpowered!oc, gn!oc, pretty witch, mother/son relationship (between Crowley and Rowena)
Tumblr media
A/N: This chapter is pretty short cause I can't drag things out for the life of me. I'm working on it, I swear.
Crowley wasn’t lying. He didn’t drive here, someone else drove him. I mean, if I was the ruler of Hell, I wouldn’t drive myself around either… but as the ruler of a badass realm, couldn’t he have gotten something cooler than a car? 
I would usually just ask, but I decided against it. He may have been nice to me so far, but I don’t wanna piss him off. He’s still a demon and could most definitely beat my ass. I am not up for that smoke.
“So… where are we going?” I was sat in the left-side seat in the back of Crowley’s car. Crowley was sitting right next to me.
“I don’t know if you can handle Hell yet,” I sat up straighter in my seat, “So we’re going somewhere that I own, but it’s on Earth.”
I was kinda disappointed that he thought I couldn’t handle Hell. I had seen his throne room plenty of times while watching the show. I had even seen the dungeons. Being there in real life couldn’t be that different. Plus, I wanted to see Rowena. She hung out in Hell by the time Sam and Dean lived in the bunker, right?
“Um…” I started. I wanted to ask the King of Hell about his mother, but I wasn’t sure how he’d react. I mean, they didn’t have the best track record.
“Spit it out, child,” Crowley commented nonchalantly.
“I - um… am I gonna get to meet Rowena?”
Crowley’s head snapped to mine, “How do you know my mother?” He asked suspiciously.
“Well,” Again, I didn’t feel like it was the safest option to tell people about how they were in a show that I binged so, I responded with, “I’m just a big fan of hers.”
Crowley didn’t look fully convinced, but he let it drop. I was glad. I’m not all that good with confrontation, so I probably would have let the truth spill if he kept pestering me.
We didn’t talk for the rest of the ride. I just stared out of the window and sometimes took a look in the rearview mirror to see whoever was driving. Obviously, it was a demon. I’m assuming he was low-ranked. Every time we locked eyes, he would make his eyes turn black. I don’t know if he thought he was scary or what. It was kind of embarrassing on his part.
It had been about an hour car ride before we finally came to a stop. I was itching to get out. The excitement of riding in the same car as the ruler of Hell had worn off by the 25-minute mark. I never liked riding in cars much because, in my original body, I was pretty tall so it was always uncomfortable. In the body I had now, I could stretch out and stuff but, my ass was so fucking boney. I couldn’t feel it and it was starting to be really uncomfy.
So, yeah, I’m glad we finally made it to our destination.
Which was a… warehouse? Really, Crowley? So original. It was pretty big and it didn't look that run down. There were a few people - sorry demons - walking around. Not sure what they were doing, but they looked busy.
“Child,” Crowley called back to me. I was looking around like a kid in a candy store, so I didn’t notice that Crowley had walked halfway to the warehouse doors.
I ran to keep up.
Running hurt my knees which hurt my heart. How could this body not allow me to run without any pain? I loved running. Running was my thing. The only sport my parents put me in that I actually liked. I was good at it. 
Welp, at least I had magic or some shit.
Two demons opened the door for Crowley and me. I felt like I was the King of Hell. 
I looked around the expansive interior of the building. It didn’t look like a warehouse at all. It looked like a crappy ballroom… which was a compliment. The floors were splintery wood, the walls were a tan color, the windows were draped with red floor-to-ceiling curtains, and there was a throne. The throne sat a couple of steps up from the rest of the room, and it looked like it was already occupied.
I turned to see Crowley’s face. He looked mildly annoyed.
“Mother, get out of my chair,” he huffed.
At his words, a short redhead stood from the throne. She was wearing a flowing emerald green dress that had intricate patterns sewn in made of jewels. Her fire-red hair was in a half-up-half-down hairstyle which did wonders for her jawline. She looked magical, and she was.
“Holy fucking shit on a brick,” I mouthed breathlessly. 
“Such a foul mouth for such a small little thing,” Rowena chuckled at me.
Not being able to stop myself I said, “Says you.”
I clamped my mouth shut thinking I messed up big time and that I was gonna die from a painful hex, but the witch just smiled. 
“Such a fierce soul,” She placed her hand on her hip, “I like it.”
Oh my god. Oh my god! Oh my god! Rowena, the most beautiful and most powerful witch in existence, just said she liked me. Me! I am most definitely moving up in the world.
“Mother, this child has powers,” Crowley gestured to me like I was on display, “They have the potential to be as strong as you. They just need a teacher.”
Crowley wants his mother to teach me? 
“I’m assuming you want me to teach them?” Rowena asks with a raised eyebrow.
It didn’t seem like she was too on board with the idea. I know in the show she usually does things only if they benefit her, and making another person who is just as strong as her doesn’t really seem like a benefit. I mean, I know that I would never ever ever try to attack someone like Rowena, but she just met me. She’ll probably say no.
“Hmm, I don’t see why not.”
I started jumping around like I was on an invisible pogo stick. Or like a frog. I wasn’t really trying to imitate anything; I was just excited. I can’t believe I would be getting trained by Rowena to hone my magic skills. Magic skills. I never thought I would have magic, but here I am. Having magic. Jumping around in one of Crowley’s hideouts. 
…embarrassing myself in front of the most powerful witch in the world.
I stopped jumping, “Thank you for the opportunity, ma’am.”
“Ma’am?” Rowena put a hand to her chest, “I’m not that old-”
“Yes, you are,” mumbled Crowley.
“Shut your mouth, boy.” From the glare that Rowena was giving him, Crowley shut up quick, “As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, you can just call me Rowena.”
I gave the witch a smile, “Okay, Rowena.”
With that, Rowena turned to her son, “Are we heading to Hell now?”
“That’s not a good idea Mother-”
“They can handle it just fine. Right?”
I wasn’t sure what I could handle. I didn’t know if I was gonna die from shock or melt to ash, but one thing is for sure: I was gonna take the risk. Who doesn’t want to get a trailer of the place they’re going to go when they die?
“Yeah, I’ll be fine,” I announced. I started to steel myself for what was to come.
“...alright,” Crowley finally conceded.
With a snap of his fingers, we were off.
A/N: TO HELL! Nothing bad will happen... right??

I know this is not a serious question, but the critic (as in analyst) in me has been turning it over.
First - the show has that heteronormative, "if a man and a woman interact that's romance" thing going on, but on steroids. I remember when I watched that episode where Frankie confesses to Nina that he saw an ufo and she gets him a telescope, and I thought "hey, I could dig this". It was a pretty casual thought and they never interacted that deeply again so I forgot about it, but, apparently, the showrunners were convinced that they were telling some love story in the sidelines. Like, them getting together, even after I acknowledged their potential, came out of nowhere to me. Because it did.
Second - for some reason, the show acts like it was made in the 90's/early 2000's, before netflix/available streaming became the default. It's very episodic, where episodes are very self-contained and disconnected to reflect the past reality that you probably wouldn't be able to watch them in order or from the start, either of the season or of the episode, so the audience had to immediately 1) understand and 2) be interested in what they were seeing in order to stop channel surfing. This would very much NOT be the case for a 2011 tv show. Sure, it still wouldn't have the currently universal "netflix structure", much more serialized (aka the episodes are more connected, there's more emphasis on season arcs and it's all overall more cohesive). For comparison, look at The Mentalist - it's based on a "case of the week" structure, like R&I, but there's also very clear season and even show arcs. R&I didn't even bother with season arcs until s6. But okay, that's not a bad thing, despite how I might make it sound lmao, it's just odd. Except for how it tended to bite them in the butt when it came to love interests, because one would be introduced in one episode, not mentioned for a few more, maybe, like with Casey and Agent Dean, they'd come back eventually for another one, and by the next time the showrunners just kinda relied on exposition on who they were and why you were meant to care about them, but you just... didn't. Because they'd appeared for like 5 minutes all put together. And, mixed with the first point about how they just tended to rely on heteronormativity and the presence of two (supposedly - sorry, but it's the truth!) attractive people to create the assumption of romance and chemistry, it just didn't tend to go well.
I mean, look at Casey. He gets introduced in the first ep of season 2, right? I don't even remember how much he and Jane interact. Then, a few episodes later, he's supposed to go to Jane's high school reunion with her, bu he can't. We're supposed to be sorry for her, because she was really excited about meeting with him, but it feels a bit... flat. I don't know the guy! They interact a bit more throughout the episode through Skype, Jane is conveniently almost-naked for some of it and it's just fine. Then he comes back from (wherever, war), doesn't tell Jane, in fact, he insists they can't be together and she makes this sweeping declaration of love that, once again, falls flat. I'm over here like "who even is this guy?!" - and I, unlike any theoretical new viewers, do in fact know who this guy is. New viewers just get told he's this guy Jane likes a lot, they're some kind of high school star-crossed sweethearts and now she's really sad. It's all very sad, isn't it? And you're like. I guess. Not really. And it doesn't really get better as he keeps appearing because the writers keep sending him away and creating a lot more drama than they've built the relationship to sustain emotionally for the viewers. At most, you want them to get together so they'll stop whining about it, and maybe out of the vague awareness that they've been in this push and pull for long enough that it can kinda constitute an actual relationship, which they kinda skipped on building before the drama started.
Third - it's the part I don't really like saying, because it's mean, but it's the truth. Angie Harmon struggles to establish chemistry with other characters. Even with Sasha Alexander, it took her a bit to find a good balance between mean and jokey when Jane mocked Maura. Or maybe we can look at it in a kinder way - she's too good at playing uncomfortable, because that's all I see when Jane interacts with men she's supposed to be attracted to. She's a lot more comfortable playing smitten, once she's reached a more stable place in the relationship (when she's past the guessing stage with Casey, when Martinez comes back the second time), than crushing, where she just looks like she'd rather be anywhere but with these people. The last few episodes? where she's supposed to be falling in love with Davies? When he invites her to dinner? It's just painful to watch. (To be clear, she does great with the case victims.) I keep going back to Martinez, where she looks so uncomfortable that I was half-convinced he was supposed to be harassing her. If Maura wasn't there to inform me that they were having crazy sexual tension, I would've had serious doubts. I did buy it when he came back that last time.
So, taking all of this into account, why are Jane and Maura so much more attractive as a couple? Because they actually interact, for starters. Talk about topics that aren't how much they're attracted to each other or what their relationship is/will be/should be like (although they do that enough to make you go "👀 oh??👀👀👀👀 you're making shared bucket lists????👀👀👀 do tell"). Because, when you put on Rizzoli & Isles, you expect to see Rizzoli and Isles, and that, along with the murders, because this is a detective show, is what the show has to sell you on. So, again, they interact, in a way that, by necessity, is there, not in flashbacks, or expositions, or retellings. That relationship has to carry the show. If that falls apart, anything else that they do right falls apart, too. Third, Harmon was given time to get used to Alexander and develop Jane's dynamic with Maura.
Why do Rizzoli and Isles have more chemistry with one another than with any of the men they date?!
I started a re-watch of the show Friday night(April 7th), and my niece started watching it with me, and within four episodes, she asked me, "Do you they ever get together? Because they should. They're adorable together." She also asked who I thought was the bottom and who was the top....I feel like I should worry about that since she's 12!
Anyways, my lesbian heart can barely take it.

Never - Winchester Brothers Imagine (Supernatural)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Title: Never
Pairing: Winchester Brothers X Platonic!Reader
Requested: by @shinestuart
Word Count: 1,084 words
Warning(s): torture, injury, cussing
Summary: (Season 11) It was stupid of the boys to believe that Amara was unaware of the one thing that could've killed her. Now, they had to face the consequences of dragging (Y/n) into the hunting world.
Author's Note: I kinda worked with my imagine "Milkshakes" more than anything else. I think it was where I most explicitly noted the reader as a weapon.
Hey! I did a rewrite of the ending of Supernatural. It took a really long time to complete, so it would mean a lot to me if you check it out. Here’s a link! (it’s on my personal account)
------------------------------------
I gasped as I woke up.
I looked around. It was a warehouse or an old factory. It was dark and empty. The windows were too high for me to see out of. I didn't see any light coming through them. It was nighttime.
There were candles surrounding the whole building. I wasn't pegging Amara for the "pay the electrical bill" type. She was definitely more of the, "make sure to set the mood" type.
I was tied to a metal cross. My arms spread out, wrists tied to either end. My legs tied together and to the pole behind me. There was another rope around my waist to hold me still.
Amara stood before me. Grace and power. The two elements that could perfectly instill fear. I pulled on the restraints on my arms.
"Hello," she greeted. "I believe you know my brother."
"Not personally," I bit back. I had only known them for a matter of months, but Sam and Dean had already impacted how I acted.
She chuckled.
I tugged on my restraints again.
"I know about you," she explained. "God's perfect weapon. Probably that only thing that could defeat me."
"You should be scared of me then."
"Oh, no," Amara held and hand out and I felt my throat closing. "I don't need to. First of all, the- admittedly complex- sigil carved into that pole will stop your powers. Second of all... I have an offer. You have two choices, you can die or... you work with me."
She stopped choking me. I coughed as I tried to catch my breath.
I looked her in the eye, "Go to hell."
Suddenly, she was right in front of me, grabbing my jaw so I couldn't move my head.
"What was that," she sneered.
"I said, 'go to hell,'" I replied. She let go of my chin. "I will not help you destroy the world."
"Why because it's so great?"
"Because the people I love are here."
"The people the Winchesters dragged you away from?"
I fell silent, clenching my jaw.
Suddenly, I was choking again.
"You have nothing keeping you here. Join me and I can give you a purpose. Teach you to use your gift."
She released her grip again. I spit in her face.
"No," I said with a shaky voice.
It felt like I took a phantom punch to the gut.
"Oh sweetie," she teased. "You are in for a long night."
--time skip--
She was right.
It felt like days of the same cycle. Hitting, choking, and then negotiating for me to join her.
I always said no.
I held onto my free will and was ready to face death for it.
My body was weaker now. Arms barely holding up, legs weak, my head hanging down.
I yelped when there was a sudden jerk on my hair.
"You could make this all stop," she taunted.
"Go. To. Hell," I repeated like I always had.
She growled at me and used her powers to grab my throat, "You ungrateful, cowardly, selfish little-"
Amara didn't finish her speech before she was thrown into the far wall behind me.
I could barely even process what was happening before Sam was in front of me, untying the ropes.
"Sam," I muttered, voice weak and head spinning.
"We're here, we've got you," he promised.
I reached out and grabbed his shoulders as he worked on the ropes by my legs.
"What's going on," I asked.
"I'll explain in a minute," he said.
Sam was then thrown across the room. I almost collapsed as disappeared.
I was frantic.
I pulled at the ropes around my legs, convinced that I was going to die in a minute. My legs were weak and probably had some blood flow cut off earlier.
"Hey, hey," Dean was at the side of the platform, helping me down carefully. "There you go."
"I got them," Sam promised, running over from wherever he had been thrown. "Go help Cas and Chuck."
Who the hell was Chuck?
He helped me into the backseat, "Are you okay?"
"I feel like one massive bruise," I muttered. He sat next to me, letting me rest on his shoulder. "You should go help them."
Sam shook his head, "No, I was told to protect you."
I nodded against his shoulder. I was getting tired after all that had happened.
"I'm sorry," he mumbled. "It was my idea to drag you into this world. I knew the risk but I was just so desperate to stop Amara that I... I didn't care."
"I'm okay," I moved so my chin was on his shoulder. "I just need to work more."
"You shouldn't have to carry this weight-"
"I wouldn't have agreed to go with you guys if I thought that," I cut him off. "I'm alright now, Sam. Don't blame yourself for this."
Sam didn't speak. I knew that he didn't believe me. But he didn't speak against me either. He just wrapped his arm around me and held me close to his side.
It was only a minute longer before the others came running out. Dean, Cas, and... that must've been Chuck.
"Who is that," I mumbled to Sam.
"You alright, kid," Dean asked as he got into the driver's seat. Sam didn't have time to answer my question.
"I'm alive," I replied. "Is Amara-"
"She vanished on us," he said. Cas got into the passenger seat and Chuck sat in the back with Sam and me.
"Here, let me," Chuck reached over a touched my forehead.
I took a deep breath as I felt myself healing.
"Better," he asked. I nodded, still tired and not getting off of Sam's shoulder. "I should introduce myself. I'm Chuck... or God."
"What," I asked, now overwhelmed. "You're... You're God?"
"He's telling the truth," Dean promised as he pulled out onto the road quickly.
"Woah," I muttered. "Some of your angels are dicks."
Chuck let out a laugh at my blunt comment. I saw the rest of the car tense up.
"Yeah... that's my fault."
"Oh, I know," I nodded. "Thank you... for helping them save me."
"You're welcome," he grinned at me.
I closed my eyes, relaxing against Sam's shoulder again, wrapping my arms around one of his. I slowly let myself fall asleep.
I knew this life was going to be hard when I first met the boys and I was ready for that. I'd rather it be me suffering than the rest of the world.

The Fire of the Innocent Sun Jasper Hale x Fleur Swan: Chapter 2
Tumblr media
Authors note: Honestly not sure how I feel about this chapter... after writing it I feel iffy about it.
Hotel room Holy Bible Hotel room free love revival Baby it's a never-ending spiral 'Looks a little bit like Paris
Everything You've Come to Except by, The Last Shadow Puppets.
"Fleur, come with me," Carlisle said to me, as calm as he tried to be I could tell he worried.
I slowly rose, following him into his office. I sat down on one of the chairs in his office a few seconds later a book was plopped down in front of me Carlisle began to explain to me what they were.
"The immortal Children were very beautiful. So enchanting. To be near them was to love them. But their development was frozen at the age they were turned. They couldn't be taught or restrained. A single tantrum could destroy an entire village. Humans heard about the devastation. Stories spread. The Volturi were forced to intervene. Since the Children couldn't protect our secret, they had to be destroyed."
"Wow... I guess the creators would grow an attachment to them." I replied, Jasper and Esme had come into the room, listening to our conversation.
"Yes, their creators grew very attached and fought to protect them. Long-established covens were torn apart. Countless humans were slaughtered. Traditions, friends, even families. Lost." Carlisle said.
"I'm going to guess that's why Irina freaked out... she must've created one." I guessed.
"You're close, the Denalis had another member of their coven, Sasha. They considered Sasha their mother... but she wanted another member... and she ended up paying the price."
"But Ezra is nothing like those kids... he grows every day!" I said getting angry.
"Are we sure Irina told them?" Jasper finally spoke.
"You're not alluding to..." Esme started.
"Bella and Edward, yes I am."
"I'd make sense, they never saw Ezra so they must've run into Irina and convinced her to be a witness," I added.
"But she called saying she wanted to apologize," Esme said sadly.
"It's the perfect cover story... Aro sees everything you've ever thought and witness. If they were to show up to Volterra without seeing Ezra he would've thought they were lying... They"
"Would've killed them." Carlisle finished.
I heard a soft knock on the door Seth, Bree, and Leah stood in the doorway, I gestured for them to come in. I noticed Alice and Dean were nowhere to be seen.
"I couldn't help but overhear what you guys were saying... couldn't you guys just convince them that he was born and not bitten?" Bree asked sheepishly.
"With what Irina saw he has enough evidence to convict us," Jasper replied.
"So we'll fight," I stated, Jasper turned his head toward me, his eyes widened.
"Their offensive weapons are too powerful. No one can stand against Jane... and Alec's even worse."
"My powers might be able to hinder her for a bit... I could make anyone hallucinate long enough for them to become vulnerable." I said hopelessly.
"We can't fight them... we'll convince them." Carlisle suggested.
"They're coming to kill us, not to talk," I replied.
"Fleur..." Carlisle started.
"No, she's right. They won't listen to us. But maybe others can convince them. Carlisle, you have friends all around the world." Jasper pointed out.
"You do?" I asked Carlisle.
"I won't ask them to fight." He said, ignoring me.
"Not fight. Witness." Jasper started. I caught on to what he was saying and continued his thought.
"If enough people knew the truth, maybe we could convince the Volturi to listen." I continued, maybe this could go over peacefully.
"We can ask this of our friends," Esme added, smiling at Carlisle. I knew Esme would be able to convince him of Jasper's idea.
Timeskip: 2 hours later
We scrambled, booking flights and packing bags hoping this would result in a heavy list of witnesses.
"At least we get to go to London again. We haven't been there in a long time. " Esme said, smiling comfortingly to a worried Carlisle.
"All right. Let's get this show on the road." I said eager to begin our search.
"Seth is always running around with Bree isn't he?" Leah asked a playful annoyance was in her voice.
"He's a lovesick puppy, Leah..." I joked.
Leah nudged my shoulder and I pointed toward the window. Sam was standing at the doorway looking extremely uncomfortable. I ran down to the front door and let him in.
Esme saw Sam and smiled, welcoming him into the house and gesturing for him to sit down. Before he sits down Sam hands me a note, my face dropped as my eyes scanned the letter on the page.
"They've left us, Alice and Dean are gone," I stated.
Esme's face dropped and venom poured from her eyes and she dropped down to the ground sobbing. I ran over to her and pulled her in for a hug. As evil as Edward had become he was still her son... and now she lost 2 more of her children.
"Why?" Rosalie asked curtly, she hated seeing Esme in pain.
"She didn't say," Carlisle replied, trying to comfort Esme.
I read the letter again, seeing if I missed anything.
"Gather as many witnesses as you can before the snow sticks to the ground. That's when they'll come."
Merchant of Venice was written on the other side of the page.
I didn't know fully if the back of the page meant anything or not... it was something I would have to decode on my own.
"Come on Jasper, we have to get going... we need to give the Denali coven an update on what their darling little sister is doing," I said sarcastically.
I saw Rosalie, her head shot up, and walked toward us.
"I want to come with you two." She stated.
Jasper and I looked at each other in confusion.
"Not that I mind you going but why?" I asked.
"With the Volturi hanging over our heads... I don't know how they'll react if they started a fight you might need an extra pair of hands." Rosalie explained, Emmett joined her, a protective flare was in his eyes.
"If a fight is going to break I'm coming with you... I won't let any of you get hurt." Emmett said stubbornly.
"Okay, I'm glad I got some backup," Jasper said, I could tell he was a bit more at ease.
The ride to Denali was going to be a tense ride...
What was going to happen next?

🌅Found Peace In Your Violence 🌅
Dean Winchester x Castiel
..... ..... ......... ....... ............ ....... .......
Moving to a new place for a new start was always hard for Castiel . He wasn't really a people person , not because he didn't like them . It was just that his " people skills " are " rusty " as he likes to say .
His mother and Father liked to adopt & foster until they divorced .
Father had gotten custody of everyone and got remarried to Becky , my mother used to call her the annoying , crazy ,bitch etc , etc . He wonders how she's doing , she wasn't quite the best mother but he still  remembers everyone that comes and goes from his life .
His family was weird , they weren't like other family's.  It always seemed to be a competition among each other . It even caused almost half his siblings to leave and never look back . Anna is probably living the craziest life with no rules . 
Balthazer is probably running a fashion line . Or maybe there all with Lucifer breaking the rules and rebelling to everything. Although he thinks Balthazar would have gone far away from those three . He was the one he miss the most .
Father doesn't like talking about them , maybe he doesn't cares . We were after all kids he took in his home to create a batallion of soldiers that's what Gabriel says all the time . It was now 9 members of the family that was left  .  His Father , Becky , their son Alfie , Michael the oldest , Gabriel the trickster,   Eileen Leahy his favorite sister , she was the last child to be recruited from the foster house . I was the youngest one from the rest of the herd .
..... ..... .....
His Mother was the first to go , should he still call her that . Once the divorce papers was filed , Naomi packed her stuff and slammed the door shut . Castiel waited for her to come back that night . Hours went by but she never came back .
Anna soon left after , She had left in there middle of the night .
Father wasn't upset he just announced that we should move soon .
3 week before moving , dad and Raphael had a fight . Father faced him and gave him ultimatum,  it had seemed for a while everything was alright . But Lucifer had other plans ,he had managed to convince raph that he shouldn't listen to father .
The move was cancelled , and when Gabriel had started prank wars against everyone Father wasn't even there to ground him . Balthazar told his siblings that he would soon move out he was 18 after all . He talked about his dreams , plans and adventures . Michael and lucifer didn't sticked around to listen  only Gabriel,  Eileen,  and him .
He promised that every time he would go visit a different place he would bring back souvenirs . And once he was stabled they would take a family trip together .
In their last hug castiel didn't want to let go , something told him that he wasn't gonna see him anymore .
When he was  15 , standing near  the porch in front the house waiting for Balthazar to appear until father shouted his name . They had to get on the road to head to their new home . All he could do was hold Eileen and Gabriel's hand .
..... ... .....
 Everything was calm , other than the fear of not knowing if you were the next victim of Gabriel's prank list .
Eileen was teaching him to get better at sign language . Michael was going to college while Lucifer was only 17 but seemed no to be interested in school . Becky had Alfie.  Silence didn't exist in the household .
. And for once he had a friend , He was kinda surprised she stucked around.
Her name was Kelly Kline , she was in the debate team and a Straight A student . He met her through Eileen . He understood why they both got along . Both were strong minded girls and didn't let anybody tell them shit .
Kelly wanted to make a change and she wanted both Eileen and him to help her . And to this day he doesn't understand why the world took her away soon .
She was pretty , she had raven hair and had a kind smile . She taught him good things can come out of the bad things . She made him want to do things he normally wouldn't do .
So he honestly didn't understand what she saw in Lucifer. They would constantly bicker but yet  they were together . Eileen would just let him rant about bees because she preferred that instead of seeing him wallow .
Gabriel would often give him advice that would make her  be interested but it usually involve some porno Gabe once watched . And Castiel usually didn't know If he was kidding or not .
But then suddenly His brother and best friend broke up . Kelly wanted to go out and forget she ever dated an asshole . Lucky for her They were invited to a party .
He doesn't quite remember that much of that night .
" Are you sure you want to do this . I think we are extremely intoxicated and not in our right minds . And we might doing a mistake that we will regret , I'm not saying I regret making out with you cause your an amazing girl I have ever meet besides Eileen but that's different cause she's my sister and I don't think of her that way , And now I made this so awkward by bringing up m- "
A hand covering his mouth making him stop ranting . looking up to see her , and the fear he once had just vanished just by looking at her smile
" Castiel ! There are alot of regrets that I have done including that I ever got involve with that douchebag . I just want to make a choice that I know won't end up as a mistake . "
..... ...... .....
That choice was inevitable to hide , not because both Kelly and castiel started a somewhat relationship . It was revealed on a Thursday that Kelly was pregnant .
Lucifer was never one take responsibility for his actions , so he told her to get rid of it .
" yeah I'm not planning to do some father bonding or give up my plans for a baby that might not even be mine . Hey you can't lie and deny that you haven't been jumping back and forth with Novak brothers . But wow really castiel , but look at the bright side you can dump all that responsibility to him . He will believe anything - ".
The sound of the slap that Kelly gave him echoed but it wasn't enough so she kneed him on the balls and lastly punched him .
" I hope you rot in hell , "
That was the last conversation she had with him when Eileen told her he had left the house .  
... ..... ..... ..... ....
Father never showed  how it affected him when his children left . But now that Lucifer left , he started to drink again and he looked sad .
He shook it off when it had been a week later . It  seemed a good time to mention someone pregnancy.  Father didn't think the same , he was quite mad , especially when it was revealed that they weren't sure who the father was . He remained calm afterwards when they all agreed it was 90 percent Lucifers .
Castiel was only 18 and now left with the mess of his own brother .
Once he graduated he stopped seeing Kelly for 5 months . Eileen would lecture him how he was being a bad friend , how he should be more supportive. He let 2 more months pass by and he couldn't help but ask Eileen how was Kelly doing .
That's how he end up in her room , Kelly was glowing . She had belly bump , He apologized for not being by her side , for letting their friendship tumble down the drain . She forgave him , discussing what they had missed . Avoiding the topic of the elephant of the room , until the baby kicked .
Castiel loved the baby already .
..... ..... .....
They never really tackled in depth of truth of who was the father . Castiel didn't put mind into it , since he felt the baby move he doesn't know how to explain it . it was like epiphany , a connection. 
So he soon took the role , he read books , used the internet , asked some questions from Becky that rambled on and on but he still got information he needed .  In favor that he would learn and be ready when his baby would come . He helped Becky with Alfie  , at first it was hard but then it was fine
" your gonna be alright , you got this castiel . "
" I hope so . "
... .... ..... .... .... .... .....
It happened so fast , his mind was so confused one second he's in bed and then he's at the hospital . Every time she would scream of pain he felt bad . his hand was hurting from the way she was holding it .She  held a grimace from every contraction .
" It hurts so much , I don't think I can't do it . Ahhh baby you have to go easy on mommy . "
She screamed again of agony , she hold his hand tighter as if it would help from the pain .
" You can , your strong and soon we will be at home I'll be taking care of our baby while you rest and sleep . How does that sound ? "
" That sounds like the best idea "
..... ...... ...... ....
He feels like he failed , he could've done something or maybe done something different . He didn't think Kelly would leave him , she promised no to . He guess it wasn't a coincidence,  life seemed to take everything from him .
Today was supposed to be the happiest day in his life . Now he's holding onto his siblings , crying seemed it would help but the feeling wouldn't go away .
" Its gonna be alright cassie , it's gonna get better . "
He really hoped Gabe was right .
...
He was following the nurses that was leading him to his baby . He didn't even got to see his newborn , it just happened to fast .
The nurse open the door wide to let him pass , his hands were shaking waiting for her directions .
" Here they are , seems like they were waiting for dad to come see them . Congratulations Mr Novak and I'm sorry for you loss ."
stunned he couldn't answer , he had his eyes only for them . he heard the door close he assumed she left to give him privacy . Tears started to build up but of happiness. 
"  We're gonna be ok , I will do my best because your all I got . I love you so much , Mommy loved you so much but she had to go rest . I think she deserves it , how ironic how she always said there was an angel watching you over . Now you do , . "
Chuckling , as he wipes away his tears  trying to compose himself . Letting out a shaky breath he starts speaking again .
" I guess is time to give you a name , bear this in mind when the time comes be thankful I didn't give you a horrendous name . You in the other hand are lucky because Kelly had already picked out one for you  . "
Smiling as they both made a noise that seemed they were going along with him on the conversation. 
.... ..... .
" I'm so ready to meet my nephew !! , I'm so excited !!! "
" shhh  "        " shhhhhhh" 
                   "shh "      " Shhh "          "sHhhh"
It wasn't like Gabriel was screaming , sheesh these people sometimes , ready to respond he stays quiet when he sees his brother motioning his family to come closer .
" Say Hello to Jack and Claire Novak . "
.... ..... ..... ..... ... .....
His kids were his pride and young , he will admit he struggled at first but with the help of his siblings he catched on . They had already turned two , they were growing so fast . Both are so smart and beautiful .
Claire with her beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair that were in pigtails in the moment . She was a troublemaker but love her endlessly.  Jack is his small bee , he was tiny and adorable . The kid loves nougat , he blames it on Gabriel.  He also had blonde hair but he had golden eyes .
He wants the best for his kids , thats why  he was contemplating on Gabriel's plan to move .
Gabe was planning to open another bakery ,
since his last three was successful and was trying expand his work . Father was quite happy with Gabriel , he helped with everything he could do . As usual Gabe took advantage and stacked up on candy , his response was always with
 " he won't even notice , he has enough and more . So shut up and help me decided between those two , who am i kidding Im taking  both . " 
Eileen was going with Gabriel,  something about a fresh start . Michael was only going to keep an eye on his siblings  , Fathers orders . And his big brother isn't one to disobey  , he was gonna get paid for babysitting gabe . His study's are kept on hold until father says so .
Castiel didn't  know what to do . He was a highschool dropout , father of fraternal twins , relying with the money of his father and it wasn't like someone is waiting for him here .
Maybe this would do him good and for his kids .
Gabriel went full on screamed of joy that he had accepted,  screaming that they were gonna have a blast . Michael was boxing their stuff fully knowing the trickster of his brother wouldn't do it , he turns to look at the youngest giving him a pointed look .
..... ..... ..... ...
Gabriel was full on rambling of why he choose the location . He wanted a challenge and one of the many things he loves to do is
1: Himself
2:Candy
3: Pranks
4: proving Dad wrong
Once the trickster told his father his plans , he told him no . To him is practically a Yes , he wasn't planning getting him self involved , oh well  you gotta do what you gotta do .
Michael was pissed but hey he could just for once say no to dad . Eileen and Castiel and his nephew coming along was the best thing of the trip . He might even admit that he's kinda glad dad forced his big bro to come along .
The perks of having a wealthy father is that they had everything solved . Airplane . Check . Ride CHECK.  House check . Moving Truck . Check . Schelduing everything on the same date ...........
It wasn't his fault , who would in their right mind would leave him with all that responsibility.  They got to their flight , the ride into country , House was there and with their boxes surrounding it . Hey they got Michael might as well put use to his muscles .
..... .... ... ..... ....
" Only you would do this Gabriel , I don't know why I let you drag me into this "
" Look at the bright side , were surrounded with some hot cowboys " Eileen spoke and signed with a mischievous smirk .
" see cassie , even Eileen  not complaining , just relax . Take a deep breath and - Ok you grab that box and I will take the heavier one . "
Gabe said as to fool Michael they were helping but as the annoyed glared they were all receiving it was obviously the 3 younger siblings were just resting .
" Your doing well Michael keep up the good work "
They all burst out laughing when the oldest retorted with a angry 'Shut up ! '
" Maybe we should help " She said & signed to both of them .
" yeah , I'm gonna go check on the kids , they might wake up any --- . "
Turning around to see where the noise was coming from , he took in the sight of a sleek  black jaguar . Squinting to block the sun , he hears the person above signalling the horse to halt .
" I wasn't informed new people were moving in , Welcome . "
  Removing his stetson , he looks at them but his gaze fall onto the bluest eye he had ever seen and the cutest head tilt . Making his Voice huskier and putting on his best smile he asked .
" Dean Winchester .
              Need A Hand , Angel ? "

SPN is ending
And here’s my take on how it will go down, based on the limited knowledge we have. Please be aware that these are not foolproof predictions. Title analysis can only get you so far, and some of the titles are vague enough that they could mean just about anything. Still I’d like to try my best to predict the narrative based on how I would go about it and based on the vague references.
I’ll go episode by episode, include as many details as I can reasonably add, and try to keep my Destiel shipping goggles off as much as possible. Buckle up.
14
First one is pretty easy. Episode 14, “Last Holiday” promises to be kind of literal, with a mysterious figure appearing and giving Jack, Sam, and Dean the holidays they missed out on. However, I was curious, since Supernatural has a habit of including obscure or not so obscure references in their titles, if there was any other thing we could correlate this to.
There is actually a movie called “Last Holiday” starting Queen Latifah, whose character is diagnosed with a terminal illness, which results in her making the decision to abandon her boring life and live like a millionaire in Europe.
The idea of the fight with Chuck being a “terminal illness” on the horizon could be why now is the best time for these guys to live it up.
Tumblr media
This possible reference coupled with the ‘last’ seems to say that this episode will be a sort of final moment of levity before the endgame. Past this episode there be monsters, lads. I’d also like to point out that since it will be just Jack and the brothers if the promo photos are anything to go by, this will be a good time to get in some forgiveness and family bonding for our characters before things go downhill again.
Looking at promo photos for this episode again, I’m not sure where, but the episode may also carry some development for the plot. I’m not sure whether the photos of Cas, Amara, and Charlie were for this episode or another one (since they are not listed as cast members for the episode on IMDb), but we’ll be seeing all of them again soon it looks like, and I can’t wait for Cas and Jack to go on a hunt together again.
Tumblr media
15
This episode will be the beginning of the descent. We’re standing on the edge and staring into the void, and we’re about to take the plunge. How do I know this?
“Gimme Shelter”, the title for this new episode, seems to have a literal meaning of the characters continuing to try to hide from God. However, as usual, the title is also a reference, this time to a song by The Rolling Stones. The lyrics to said song are nice and foreboding.
Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (3X)
The floods is threat'ning
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (4X)
I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away (5X)
Kiss away, kiss away
Cue nervous anticipation
This is definitely where things are going to really pick up plot wise. Most likely, more will be revealed about Billie’s Plan to Kill God TM. Although, the idea of Death herself leading the Winchesters to victory feels sketchy to me still. She is deliberately withholding all the details, and she’s doing it for a reason.
Something down the line is going to make the Winchesters angry with her, and she’s not going to tell them about it unless it’s absolutely necessary. I have a feeling what it is will get revealed in the next episode.
16
“Drag Me Away (From You)” has some very clear negative connotations, and on top of everything has a weird format. It could be based on the lyric from Africa by Toto, ‘it’s gonna take a lot to drag me away from you’, or a reference to the song “Drag Me Away” by Melissa Etheridge, whose lyrics mention angels, and are about resistance and perseverance, two defining characteristics of the Winchesters. However, I’d like to point out another correlation.
Like I said before, the title has a weird format. The only other episode of Supernatural with a similar title to this one is season 12 episode 12 “Stuck in the Middle (With You)”. That episode was about what seemed like a normal hunt, but was actually a mission for Mary by the British Men of Letters to get the Colt. In that episode, Cas came ridiculously close to dying a painful and slow death, which does not bode well for this episode if it’s correlated in any way.
If what I’m predicting for Billie’s plan is true, this episode will be where the viewers are clued in on the thing she won’t tell the Winchesters about. The brothers might not necessarily get clued in (like how they still hadn’t realized Mary’s involvement with the BMOL at the end of 12x12), but whatever Billie is withholding will have serious consequences.
For this episode, I predict that Cas will come absurdly close to death again, because I believe Billie’s plan involves him dying. Billie doesn’t consider Cas a member of TFW. Multiple times in the most recent episodes, she talks about how important Jack is, how important the Winchesters are, but never Cas, and it feels like a weird oversight.
“Ever since I got this new job, I stand witness to a much larger picture. You know what I see? You. And your brother. You’re important.” 13x05 “Advanced Thanatology”
“I told you Dean, you and your brother have work to do.” 15x12 “Galaxy Brain”
Surely Cas has a part to play, since he’s one of the main characters right? But Billie doesn’t trust Cas, as well she shouldn’t. Cas is a wildcard, an angel who doesn’t do as he’s told. He straight up stabbed her in the back, something that she was completely caught off guard by.
I could make an entire post about how Cas hasn’t played by the rules of the universe since season 4 episode 18 “The Monster at the End of This Book”, but I digress. The point is that this episode is probably going to shed some light on the true threat the team is facing. Which leads us into...
17-18
Here’s where things start to get muddy. The titles from this point on get vague, and without any solid information about the previous episodes, these could be headed anywhere.
“Unity” is the next episode, number 17, and that could mean a lot of things. In my proposed timeline it is after a supposed revelation about Billie’s plan, so maybe they feel more unified after learning it.
In Supernatural‘s usual story structure, though, it feels like this episode will probably be the buildup to what seems like the end of the villain, but will actually be the darkest hour.
The episode following right after this is titled “Despair” and I think that’s telling. Supernatural writers do this often, where the boys make a plan, and inevitably when they follow it something goes wrong. “Unity” is the plan being made and carried out, and “Despair” is either the episode where everything goes wrong, or the aftermath.
[EDIT: The title of episode 18 is actually “The Truth”, which I believe may still narratively serve the same purpose, but now I’m more convinced that this is where the Winchesters learn about Castiel’s deal and/or something that Billie has been keeping from them about the plan to kill God. Thank you to @kingofthecrossroads for the updated information.]
Before I go into detail about this two-episode arc, an obligatory
Warning: Shipping Ahead
To my eyes, “Unity” seems like the perfect place for Castiel’s arc to reach a breaking point. If I’m right, and this is the episode where everything seems to succeed, then what better time for The Empty to snatch Cas away from his happiness.
If I was a writer, and I was in fact planning on making Destiel canon, this is where I’d do it. It makes the most sense to have Dean and Cas finally realizing their love for each other be the catalyst for Cas “finally giving himself permission to be happy” especially if this episode also contains a false climax regarding the Chuck storyline. Cas has said multiple times that he’s “far from happy”, so there has to be something huge happen for Cas to get there. Not to mention, Cas would be a sort of vessel for the audience, simultaneously happier than we’ve ever been because we were finally right, and sadder than ever because Cas is gone.
“Despair” won’t just be despair that the plan failed. It could also be Dean’s despair at losing Cas, our despair at seeing our hopes for them dashed.
[EDIT: Again, the title will NOT be “Despair” it will be “The Truth”, but I still think it’s telling that Despair was a working title for long enough that it’s on the IMDb page, and if “The Truth” contains the truth about how Dean and Cas feel about each other, then this will still be a dark episode.]
Shipping over, let’s continue.
19
Now we come to another referential episode, “Inherit the Earth”. There’s really not enough information to have anything solid regarding the nitty gritty details, but we can take a look at what this title is most likely referencing. “Inherit the Earth” is just a tiny part of a common phrase. It’s used in media all the time, but we’re interested in the original source.
Tumblr media
I’m not sure if the episode will contain references to all the pieces of this passage from the Bible, but “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth” seems to build off of the last episode, “Despair”. Another translation for the word meek in this instance may have been “powerless”, and after the negative moments in the previous episode TFW would probably feel pretty powerless. Maybe, in the previous episodes, Jack failed and lost his powers again, and that’s what caused Despair, but now he will inherit the powers that God had, or inherit control of earth.
If the rest of the passage is to be taken into account here, there’s also the “poor in spirit” who will ascend to the “kingdom of heaven”, possibly a reference to Cas being depressed and fighting for Heaven to be maintained. “Those who mourn will be comforted”, and that may actually bode well for Sam and Dean, who constantly mourn for the friends they’ve lost. Maybe in this episode they’ll get some closure on that front, maybe with their friends trapped in Hell going to Heaven (Kevin). The next line after “inherit the earth” refers to “those who hunger and thirst for righteousness”, and if that isn’t Michael/Adam to a T...maybe this will be the episode we see him team up to fight God. I’m not sure who the last line might refer to other than Sam, if you have any ideas feel free to tell me.
And after all this, we have the big one.
20
“Carry On” is referring to “Carry On My Wayward Son” by Kansas, and I don’t have a clue what it will entail. If the previous episode goes well, then this will be a sort of epilogue, with a (hopefully) happy ending for TFW, maybe we see Eileen and Sam get together, some kind of family dinner with Jody and the girls to resolve that plot line, or potentially, if the writers plan on doing it, a scene confirming Destiel.
It’d be interesting if they showed the brothers going on a normal, run-of-the-mill hunting trip, like a simple salt-and-burn, or even a (different) woman in white. It would be a nice way to bookend the story, to end on a hunt, but instead of the brothers on their own, it’s the brothers with the help of everyone they’ve come to know and care about in their journey, all the lives they’ve touched.
If, however, the conflict is not resolved by the end of the previous episode, this could be the resolution and epilogue all rolled into one, though if it were me I would want as much time as possible to resolve any lingering character questions because, at the end of the day, Supernatural has survived because of the characters. They are what people stay for, what they watch for.
Reminder that all of this is speculation. I do not know what will happen, this is just how I think the story could progress based on what we know so far.
For better or for worse, at this point Supernatural will be over. Will they do a perfect job? Probably not. This is Supernatural, it’s not the most perfect show. However, I’m excited to see where the writers will go with it. They have their work cut out for them.

It was Never Us- Chapter 2
Nice and Flowery
Masterlist
Dean Winchester× Reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dean grabs the keys of the Impala off his dressing table, frowning slightly at the fact that he left them in his room.
"Hey."
The older Winchester turns around to face his brother who was towering in the doorway.
"Hey," Dean replies, pushing his keys into the pocket of his jeans, turning around and scanning his room to see if he was forgetting something.
"Dean, what are you doing, man?" Sam asks and Dean turns to him, frowning.
"I just gave Y/n her boots back and a flannel of mine," Dean shrugs, taking a step forward. "I'm thinking of taking her to the town since this place," he indicates around his room, "isn't enough to convince her she's not in Apocalypse world."
"Town?" Sam breathes out, his mouth hanging slightly. "Dean- what do you think is going to happen?"
Dean raises an eyebrow, shrugging obliviously. He frowned though, waiting for Sam's hesitant words.
"You know she's going back, right? To her world. She won't stay here," Sam continued speaking earning a questioning look from his brother.
"And?"
"Dean, I remember what it was like after Y/n- this world's Y/n died, okay? Sure, you wanted everything to get over," Sam sighs, referring to the Apocalypse, "but you're my brother. I know that you were dying inside."
"I don't get-"
"-I saw you, man. The way your face lit up when she walked into the library. I just," Sam hesitates, "I'm happy that she's here too but I get that she's going to leave. I hope you do too."
Dean clenches his jaw, not knowing what to say. He looks around the room one more time, not wanting to think of Y/n's inevitable departure just yet. She just came about 24 hours back and Dean was already felt the old feelings surfacing up.
"Dean-"
"She's probably waiting for me," Dean cuts him off, almost gritting the words out. "You coming or not?"
Sam's mouth opens but he shuts it quickly and shakes his head. "No, the two of you go. Cas and I will find ways of opening the rift again."
Dean nods once before walking past his brother into the hallway.
He enters the map room, faltering when he sees Y/n standing there, tracing her fingers over the continents on the table. Her back faced him. The flannel hung over her shoulders and the sleeves were folded up several times just to reach the middle of her forearm.
She pushes her hair back and Dean, despite himself- traces the movement of her arm.
There she was. Standing there. In the same perfection as she had to almost eight years back.
Sam was right. A part- if not all- of Dean had died that day- the day Zachariah killed Y/n to get Dean to say 'yes'. He had started torturing her and the Winchester hadn't known what to do. Instead, he stood and watched as Y/n spat out blood onto the white marble flooring as she told Dean to say 'no'. Her last words had been, "Dean, no." He remembered the way she croaked it out with so much difficulty as she choked on her own blood.
Zachariah promised to bring her back if Dean said yes. The Winchester spat his answer out, his heart painfully beating in his chest as the angel started torturing Sammy in front of him.
"Bring her back, you bastard!"
"Oh, Dean. Let her death be a lesson to you."
"No, you promised-"
"Well, I lied."
Dean knew he should have forced them to bring her back but at that time, he was so messed up in the head that he killed Zachariah there and rushed to Y/n's dead body, cradling and crying over it.
Since then, he carried the guilt of her death. Of all the people he knew who died, he blamed himself the most for Y/n's death.
Dean clears his throat, taking a step forward. Y/n whirls back and Dean frowned at how alarmed she looked. There was still some dirt and grime on the skin of her arm but Dean ignored it.
"You okay?"
"Yeah," Y/n nods, breaking eye contact and looking around the room. "This is a...cool place."
The exact same voice.
"Yeah, the Men of Letters bunker," Dean sighs, looking around for a second before looking at Y/n again, missing the flash of confusion on her face at the mention of the MoL. "You ready to go?"
"Yep," Y/n nods, raising her eyebrows. "That is only if you let me carry a weapon with me."
Dean falters in his steps and he wanted to look at her incredulously but it didn't feel like the right thing to do. "Still don't trust us?"
"Yeah," Y/n scoffs at Dean's sarcastic question. "Maybe it's because you're with an angel," she says and turns to him, something flashing in her eyes that could only be regret and pain. Dean considers talking about it but when was he ever good with feelings?
"Cas is- He's good. Look, trust me, alright? You can trust me," Dean says, nodding his head, his gaze sincere and promising. Y/n takes a deep breath, biting on the inside of her lip before speaking in a defeated tone.
"Let's go, then."
Tumblr media
Y/n's eyes had been widened for the past five minutes and Dean was getting worried.
From the second they rolled into town, she had stopped bobbing her head to the rock music he played softly. He did so because of two reasons. One, since the Apocalypse started in 2004, she wouldn't be that big fan of pop songs. So he put the all-time classic radio channel, playing only rock music. Two, his world's Y/n loved rock. The doppelgangers ought to have differences but he was hoping their taste of music wasn't one.
"You okay?" Dean asks finally, pulling up in front of a small diner. Luckily, Y/n didn't feel the need to carry a weapon.
"No, not really," Y/n breathes out, turning around in her seat so face Dean. "I don't get it. How is your world nice and," she hesitates, searching for a word, "flowery but mine is death and destruction."
"First of all," Dean starts off, slightly offended that she thought this world was flowery. "This world is not nice and... flowery? And second," he pauses, "it might be because your world didn't have me and Sam in it," Dean finishes off, trying to sound sincere and not like a douche. But apparently, his reason had a douche effect on Y/n as she scoffs and looks out again.
"Like you and your brother single-handedly stopped the Apocalypse," she says and when Dean doesn't respond she turns back, eyes widened. "You're telling me that because the two of you didn't exist, my world got damned?"
Dean couldn't respond. He didn't know what to say. Saying yes sounded bad but it was the answer to her question. Y/n pauses before opening the door of the Impala and walking out, eyeing a woman walking with her child on the footpath. Dean gets out too, the comforting smell of leather and whiskey leaving him.
They didn't speak. Dean just followed Y/n as she walked into the diner slowly and sat down in one of the booths. She shimmied a bit in her seat, placing her hands slowly on the table. Dean looked at her and felt a small smile creeping onto his face.
A waitress had come to take their orders- Y/n flinched when she approached but quickly regained her composure and asked for a plate of chocolate waffles, some bacon, and coffee. As soon as the waitress left, Y/n noticed Dean's raised eyebrows and shook her head, blushing slightly. "We don't have waffles in my world," she answers sheepishly, looking around and taking in the atmosphere of the diner.
Dean cringed slightly, feeling like an idiot now. "Yeah," he breathed out. He looked at her, feeling his curiosity rise. "How did you survive? All these years?"
"We had camps," she explains after looking around the diner another time. "Camps to fight against the angels- against Micheal. It's been hard," she says hesitantly, looking down, "and now I find out that because you and your brother never lived in my world, it went to shit." She pauses and looks up at Dean. "How did the two of you stop the Apocalypse?"
Dean shifts in his seat and sits back. "Sam jumped into Lucifer's cage when he was possessed by him. He took Micheal down there too."
"Your brother went to Hell?" Y/n asks, brows shot up and eyes widened.
"Yeah, Cas brought him back." Dean pauses as Y/n mulls over his words. "You died before that," he says before he could stop himself. He felt obliged to tell her the truth- if it was him in her place, he would want the entire truth- but he couldn't bring himself to tell it to her. His heart was still beating painfully- from the minute he saw her. The guilt was going to drive him crazy.
"What?"
"I was Michael's vessel," Dean says slowly, fighting with himself on the inside whether he should tell her the whole truth. Her eyes widen at what he said and he could see a bit of her distrust growing back. "I couldn't say yes. So- um, the angels tortured you- her in front of me. And I didn't know what to do," his voice cracked slightly and clenches his fists on his lap. He stops speaking and looks out at the gathering crowd outside, most people getting to work.
"She told me to say no. Those had been her last words." Dean stops talking as images of that day come flooding into his mind. The guilt crept up his chest, wrapping his heavily beating heart and making it heavier.
"She died for a good cause," Y/n whispers after a few seconds of awkward silence. "She died fighting against angels."
"No," Dean breathes out roughly, shaking his head. "No." He looked at Y/n, overflooded with hatred, guilt, pain. In the storm of those ugly feelings was a small glint of something Dean hardly felt anymore. "Her death was all my fault. She didn't deserve to die."
Y/n knits her eyebrows together and Dean can almost hear the question being formed in her mind. What was your relationship with this world's Y/n again?
Dean may have lied and said that they were friends but at that time he was still too shocked at the fact that she was alive in the alternate universe.
Y/n opens her mouth but is quickly cut off when the waitress arrives and places the two plates in front of her along with a white mug filled with the hot dark brown liquid. She widens her eyes at it, not even thanking the waitress for the food.
Dean takes a bite of the bacon he ordered for himself, looking at Y/n as she carefully cut the waffle and put it in her mouth, her face instantly lighting up as she groans. "This tastes so good," she mutters and stuffs another bite in her mouth.
"Easy, tiger," Dean chuckles, looking at the way she quickly ate what was in her mouth and took another bite.
"Thank you," Y/n says, stopping momentarily. "For buying me breakfast."
Dean tilts his head and nods, about to answer but Y/n quickly starts eating again. He found it better to let her continue without disturbing her.
Tumblr media
"So, there was this man," Y/n starts and Dean turns back from the wall, looking at her shift uncomfortably in the wooden seat.
"Okay?" Dean frowns, walking to the kitchen island, maintaining as much distance as he could from her. He was lucky Y/n hadn't noticed his discomfort whenever they seemed to be within five feet of eachother.
Sam was right. It was easy. Get Y/n back to her world. No attachments or feelings. Nothing.
No. It was easier said than done though. It was the same woman Dean fell in love with all those years ago. It was the same woman Dean saw in his nightmares- her always dying because he couldn't get to her in time. It was like his deepest fear- his fear of losing Y/n- had come true on that day.
"He saved me," she says slowly, tracing her fingers over the hot ceramic cup of coffee Dean had offered her; he guessed that by the way she said, "Yes, please," to his offering of another cup of coffee, she must've missed the bitter brown liquid. "Bobby Singer," she nods and looks up at him.
"Bobby?" Dean asks gruffly, surprised that they knew each other in the alternate universe too.
"You know him?" Y/n asks, face lighting up in excitement and a bit of confusion.
"Yeah, knew him," Dean corrects. "He died."
"It seems that everyone you know, dies," Y/n states, her nervous smile slowly turning into a frown as she looks at Dean accusingly. "Or," she pauses, "everyone who knows you, dies."
"Wow. That's extra" Dean scoffs, slightly offended.
"I'm sorry if I'm a bit skeptical," Y/n snaps. "You got me here with no plan of taking me back-"
"-I didn't know-"
"- and Charlie, Bobby, and Y/n- this world's- are dead!"
"I told you that an angel killed her," Dean frowns.
"Look," Y/n sighs, shaking her head, "trusting people- it's not...easy for me. Hell, if you trusted the wrong people in my world, you could die. I just- I need to be sure that- that I get back, okay?"
"I'm not gonna hurt you," Dean shakes his head. "I saved you back there."
"I didn't need saving," Y/n answers after clenching her jaw and Dean scoffs, turning away from her piercing (y/e/c) eyes. "It would have been easier if you left me there."
Dean shakes his head, unable to get rid of the uneasiness in his stomach. Dean's eyes avert as he sees Cas appearing in the kitchen's doorway.
"Dean," he calls in his rough voice and takes a step forward. Y/n had turned around, her mouth hanging on seeing the angel. Fear masked her eyes as she looked back at the Winchester and back at the angel, quickly excusing herself and leaving, trying hard not to brush her shoulder with Cas's.
"Is she fine?" Cas looks back at Dean, confusion marring his features.
Dean thinks back to what she said before. Everyone who knows you, dies.
"I don't know."
Y/n's POV
You rushed out of the room, knowing you wouldn't be able to stay a few feet away from an angel and not kill him. Was it rude- what you said to Dean?
Sure, he saved your life but that gave you no reason to trust him. No reason to trust any of them. He should have left you in that damned world so you wouldn't get a chance to see how life could be. Would be if you stayed here.
But you were loyal to your people and your cause. You couldn't leave them in that rotten world. Who knew what was happening with them right now? What if, while you're here, your camp gets raided by angels?
You shake your head, the uneasiness creating a pit in your stomach. You walk into the library of the huge bunker they had- the Men of Letters bunker as Dean had called it.
The library was huge itself with old faded book spines decorating the walls. They were additional shelves too with luscious leather armchairs in front of them.
Sam was sitting on one of the tables that lined the middle of the library, bent over what seemed to be a tablet. You nod a bit after the momentary surprise, trying to get it into your head that you were in an alternate universe.
Not knowing what to do, you approach the library. Sam looks up before you could change your mind to leave and a small smile appears on his lips. "Hey," he breathes out and you take an awkward step forward.
"Hey." You look at Sam awkwardly smile at you and open his mouth before closing it, looking down at his tablet with furrowed brows. You raise your eyebrows at his unsaid words and bite your lip, looking around the library. "You guys must be rich to afford a library like this- an entire place like this, actually," you state and look at Sam as he chuckles softly.
"No, uh, we actually found the place like this."
"It's a... Men of Letters bunker, right?" You ask hesitantly, almost forgetting the name of the place.
"Yeah," Sam replies, resting his hands beside the tablet on the table.
"So, what do you guys do for a living?" You ask, tugging down at the flannel sleeves Dean had offered to you.
Was it... wrong? That you didn't trust them? Considering how they immediately let you stay in their house and offered their clothes to you seemed as you should. Also considering that Dean saved you. But you were right before- trusting the wrong people could lead to someone's death. You had learned that the hard way- the scar along your back was proof of it.
"Dean didn't tell you?" He asks and you frown, asking yourself when Dean would have the time to tell you that. Oh.
"At that time, I was focusing on saving Charlie from the angels," you answer sheepishly and you shift your weight to one leg as they start aching.
"We're hunters," Sam replies after widening his eyes at what you said- you not understanding the reference you may have made. "Monsters are real. Vampires, werewolves- you name it."
"I know," you say, nodding your head, your mind forming an image of those butt-ugly creatures. Bobby had told you that vamps and werewolves weren't as feral as they were before since they could feed off humans at any time.
But the Apocalypse started and they starved with the decreasing population- turning them into wild creatures that didn't think, didn't sleep- only hunted. The old man had said they were far more dangerous than they were before since nothing seemed to faze them and they only acted upon pure animal instinct.
"You were a hunter in your world?" Sam asks, surprised.
"No," you shake your head, planning to elaborate but a sudden switch flips in your head and a voice shouts in your head, "What are you doing?!" Shit. You had to be focused on getting back home. As every second passed, something bad could be happening. Your anxiety weighs down on you and you look at Sam's worried expression- no doubt on the look of fear on your face.
"What's wrong?" He asks, his chair scraping as he tries getting up, immediately stopping when your hand flies up in fear- telling him to stay where he was.
You didn't want to admit it but a feeling of dread was creeping in your chest, coming like waves. Right when you seemed to be admiring this world, it washed up, bringing in more and more fear. Fear and worry that made you sick in the stomach.
"Nothing's wrong," you shake your head. "Where are you guys on the ingredients for the door?"
Sam sits straighter, his brows knitting together for a second before he answers. "We have everything but one ingredient."
"And that is?"
"Archangel grace."
You remembered Dean saying that Micheal was in his Lucifer's cage. He didn't mention if Lucifer was in his cage as well. But that would still leave two more, right?
"How are you going to get it?" You ask, slight urgency in your voice since archangel grace didn't sound like something anyone could easily come by.
"We're trying to track down Gabriel- one of the archangels," Sam adds in and you take a step forward, his words piquing your interest. He looks down at his tab and stops speaking, a frown forming on his face and creasing his forehead.
"What?" You ask, trying to peek into the tab.
"We have a problem."
Tumblr media
"I don't get it. Whats happened?" You ask, taking a small step forward.
"Y/n, you have to stay in the bunker," Dean says as he adjusts his duffel bag on his shoulder, turning around to look at Sam walking into the war room with his bag hoisted over his shoulders.
"There's this witch- Rowena," Dean starts and you nod, remembering the name from when you were sneaking up on the men and the angel.
"That's the woman you were talking to this morning, right?"
"Yeah, she's causing trouble for a few people," Sam speaks now, "and we have to stop her."
"What about finding Gabriel?" you ask selfishly, hoping that they would focus on getting you home first.
"Rowena's going to help us find him," Sam reassures, nodding and making his puppy dog look.
"Let me come too, then," you say on an impulse, not knowing what to do in this huge bunker.
"No," Dean answers and looks towards Sam. "You ready?
"Yeah."
"Wait, why not?"
"We'll be back in a few days- a week, maybe," Dean says and drops his voice. "Look, I'm the one who brought you here. I'll take you back too, okay? It's my responsibility."
"What do I do here, then?" You ask, folding your arms above your chest, exasperated by the idea of staying in this place.
"I don't know- read some books, watch some Netflix," Dean says, shaking his head slightly.
"Netflix?" You ask, looking at Sam to see if he understood the word. He chuckles softly as Dean closes his mouth, confused at your question before rolling his eyes.
What the hell was a Netflix?

Destiel Chronicles
(Vol. VI)
It was a love story, from the very beginning.
(4x16/4x20/4x21/4x22)
Prelude to The fall
Hi again!! And now we are here, in the last volumes from season 4.
I'm gonna talk in this one about the foreshadow to the fall, and I will extend Castiel's fall to next and last volume too.
I want to mention my friend @agusvedder , she made the gifs specially for this metas and discuss with me the Destiel scenes. Thanks a lot girl! 😘💕
Ok, without any other addition, let's start with the analysis.
Dean... I can't...
Cas was observed by his superiors, they watched every step or word he said to Dean. Even so... When Dean was praying for help, Cas went to see him immediately.
Tumblr media
The answer to Dean's prayers was immediate. Dean had sounded desperate, and Castiel couldn't reject go to see him. (My heart...)
Dean asked CAS to help him, but Castiel had his orders... He already had lost his position for getting too close to this man, and now... Now he was desperately asking him for help...
CASTIEL: I'm not sure what I can do.
DEAN: Drag Sam out of here, now. Before Lilith shows up.
CASTIEL: It's a prophecy. I can't interfere.
Tumblr media
DEAN: Why? 'Cause it's "divine prophecy"?
CASTIEL Yes.
DEAN So, what – We're just supposed to sit around and, and wait for it to happen?
CASTIEL I'm sorry.
Let's just stop in this scene... I want you to see Dean's face in the gif... He's desperate, and he's trying hard to convince Castiel, to drag him into his circle, but Cas had Heaven breathing on his neck ... He wanted to help him.. but he couldn't.
And I put in red those words because this scene, my friends, is a huge parallel of the fall, the scene in the green room in 4x22. Even CAS is saying I'M SORRY AS HE WILL SAY I'M SORRY TOO IN THAT SCENE. How this scene ended? Well after Dean getting mad at him ...
Tumblr media
Dean passes by Castiel, but look at Castiel's sad face... He doesn't want Dean get mad at him... He really wants to help him, so... He decided a strategy to "HELPING DEAN INDIRECTLY" by giving him some important information about Archangels protecting Prophets...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Castiel looks up, at Heaven...he knows this will cost him a lot... And it will as we will see in "The Rapture" (in volume V). But after looking up at Heaven, he fixes his eyes with Dean's... He needed to know if Dean had get the message... And he did...
Tumblr media
Castiel even greeted him with a good luck. He's playing with fire here...
So yes! Huge foreshadow here my friends... The good thing is Castiel finished helping Dean... As it will occur in 4x22.
Second time Dean prays...
In the episode 4x21, after Castiel received his punishment in Heaven and was brainwashed, Dean prays again desperate, bc Sam was locked trying to get rid from demon blood. That was very hard for Dean, and he was suffering horribly for his brother. He needed help. But this time Castiel attended the call... Two and a half hours later.
Tumblr media
Look at Dean's face, he is in pain, and he looks at a side because he isn't just in pain bc his brother is locked and fighting against that demon blood, but because the only help he could ask for didn't came, Castiel didn't came in Dean's desperately prayer. And his face is screaming, with a little tiny of shame, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME? CAN'T YOU SEE I'M SUFFERING BC MY BROTHER AND YOU MADE ME WAIT HERE SCREAMING FOR YOUR HELP? WHY?
Dean is hurt because Castiel made him wait two and a half hours knowing he was in pain.
He maybe recalled that time in the motel, when CAS answered his prayers right away, and helped him with Sam... And now...
CASTIEL: What do you want?
DEAN: You can start with what the hell happened in Illinois.
CASTIEL: What do you mean?
DEAN: Cut the crap. You were gonna tell me something.
CASTIEL: Well, nothing of import.
Tumblr media
Cas is marking Dean here that Heaven is watching. They are listening, look at his face, he knows Dean pushing so hard can make him break, he wants to help, but he can't, he was brainwashed, but that crack is still there, that crack connects him with this man, his weakness.
Dean looks at him, when he said I CAN'T. Maybe he get the message there. They are not alone. But even so, he insists .
CASTIEL: Get to the reason you really called me. It's about Sam, right?
DEAN: Can he do it? Kill Lilith, stop the apocalypse?
CASTIEL: Possibly, yes. But as you know, he'd have to take certain steps.
DEAN: Crank up the hell-blood regimen.
CASTIEL: Consuming the amount of blood it would take to kill Lilith would change your brother forever. Most likely, he would become the next creature that you would feel compelled to kill. There's no reason this would have to come to pass, Dean. We believe it's you, Dean, not your brother. The only question for us is whether you're willing to accept it. Stand up and accept your role. You are the one who will stop it.
This, over there... 👆 That's Heaven manipulation. This words were bout on Castiel's mouth. He was sent by Heaven specifically to fulfill a mission... To make Dean accept to obey Heaven. They sent Castiel bc they know Dean and Cas relationship is special enough to make Dean fell for manipulation.
Tumblr media
And he fell for it ... Castiel is listening, he knows Sammy is Dean's limit. And he just used him, as Heaven asked him to do it. And he is hating himself for that for sure...
CASTIEL: If it gives you comfort to see it that way.
DEAN: God, you're a dick these days.
Dean is disappointed with him, this isn't the Castiel he knew, the Cas that helps him, the Cas that sat by his bed in the hospital, watching him cry, and telling him the whole truth he has. Or the Cas that confessed him in that park that he had doubts and he wasn't a hammer. Yes ... He is just like any other angel now.
Tumblr media
So... To the Hell with everything, Dean accepts the offer, he was really desperate. Castiel had fulfilled his mission...
Castiel's incongruent behavior
... or part of it. Sometimes I felt he was on a test by Heaven, they should ask Castiel for his loyalty, and they sent him to do three things he wasn't agreed. He maybe wanted to answer Dean's prayers right away, but Heaven should said to him: NOT YET CASTIEL, LET HIM WAIT. LET HIM BE MORE DESPERATE, WE NEED HIM MORE DESPERATE.
And the second mission was to release Sam. You can see the scene and the expression in Castiel's face is eloquent. He is suffering by doing things he is against it, he had his doubts still there... Why he has those doubts after the procedure of brainwashing?
The third thing he had to do, is very very symbolic: He called Anna, to a trap. Angels took her to Heaven. Heaven locked Castiel's rebellious feelings and doubts. And he let that happen... But not for so long... Because he was made to be free.
To conclude:
Season 4 showed us a parallel with Dean praying for help worried about Sam, in the first one (foreshadow of Castiel's fall in the last episode) CAS answered his prayers right away and, although the big eye of Heaven over them, he ended by helping Dean.
The second time after receiving Heaven's punishment for give information and be too close to that human, he didn't answer right away, maybe by Heaven's order to make Dean accept obedience to Heaven.
Castiel was doing the three missions with doubts and pain. Things that will lead him to the fall.
His hear and his actions were totally disconnected.
I hope you like this, sorry because it took me so long, is beacuse I'm writing too metas about the ongoing episodes of Supernatural!

Resistance: Part 1
Tumblr media
Dean Winchester x OFC
MASTERLIST
Despise /verb/: feel contempt or a deep repugnance for.
- B o -
This was so normal for us, me and Riley sitting at a bar at the end of a "hard" day. She'll continuously drink while I sit and have a few beers, neither of us ever get a buzz anymore. Bartenders almost without out fail will hit on her, and she'll most likely bring them back to the room we're staying at while I sit in the car, or even at the bar if her fling takes place in the vehicle itself. I never get mad and she always offers me a free pass the next morning to do the same to her one day, but I don't use it.
"Are you sure you're cool with this?" She asks me, as the guy she's been hitting on grabs his coat.
I nod. "Riley, honestly I don't care, it's your car anyway, try and text me if he turns out to be into anything weird. " She rolls her eyes, and downs her last drink.
"You want me to let you know just so you can get some of that, I know you're into some weird shit." Laughing, she stands up, as my middle finger shoots up. I mean anyone can enjoy a little weird, but I'm not gonna be fuel to her flame. She heads out with the guy and I pretend to busy myself reading the label on the full bottle of  beer in front of me. I usually do this until the bartender asks me if I'm alright, and then when I nod he gives me another bottle. This time I'm doing it because the guy on a stool away from me is glancing not so discretely at me every few seconds, and I don't feel like talking to anyone tonight.
"If you're gonna pretend to read that at least move your eyes a little." The guy says and my eyes flick up before I turn my head to look at him, familiar. "It would make it a little more believable."
" Maybe you wouldn't have noticed if you weren't staring so hard. " I bite back and he smiles. My hand is wet from condensation on the bottle, it's lost its chill as I drink from it. Thinking this man is gonna stop talking to me and just move on to annoy someone else was the first mistake I made. The second was when I actually acknowledged the fact that he had now moved to the stool where Riley was sitting.
"Is she your sister?" He asks, I roll my eyes. "I'm Dean, by the way." Dean Winchester, I think, of course he is. My silence gives him a moment to take another drink from his glass before he licks his lips.
"Hm, I expected Dean Winchester to be a little," I look him over for emphasis. "More intimidating." And then I smile slightly. His smirk made it obvious he wasn't the least bit offended by that, taking it more as a game.
"Should I know you?" Are his next words and I shake my head because it isn't likely, me and Riley keep to ourselves. Then again, he's a Winchester.
"Bo Shoemaker." And then I mentally curse myself because when the hell do I ever give my real last name. It's like that one rule totally left my mind. Dean's face seems to recognize it and he's just processing it, almost as if he'd be embarrassed if he said anything wrong.
"Shoemaker, as in-"
"Yeah, exactly." I cut in because I don't wanna hear his name out loud.
"So that girl, Riley Duncan I'm guessing?" I nod at that. "Bobby always says me and my brother-"
"That we're just like you and Sam, yeah I know and it's ridiculous." Once again he's cut off. "Look I should go, we gotta head out early tomorrow and it's my turn to drive." Liar.
Before Dean can say anything else I stand up, leave money, and walk out before conversation can go any further. I have no clue where I'm gonna go but honestly anything is better than having to discuss personal life. The spot our car was in is now empty, looking around at the last three cars left in the lot shows just how late it is. I scuff my boots against the pavement as I take short walks across the small area I'm given. My hands are shoved into my jacket pockets, and my breath fogs up the air in front of me. It's fucking freezing out here and I'm the coward that walked out just so I didn't have to face the truth. Dean wasn't innocent, but his curiosity was and all I had to do was say I didn't want to talk about it, of course he would have understood. I sit down on the curb of the sidewalk in front of the building, knowing Riley, I would be here a while.
His keys jingle as he approaches my side , and his booted feet crunch against some leaves when he steps off the curb to sit on it.
"I don't really want to talk about it. " I mumble, picking at the thread in my jeans. Dean doesn't say anything for a while, he only extends his legs in front of him.
"Yeah I get it, you need a ride anywhere?" He asks, looking at me.
"How long have they been gone?" I question, considering that it felt like ages since Riley had left me. Dean simply just shows me his wrist and the watch tells me it's been about an hour of me sitting out here.
"Yeah, the motel down the road." I answer his question and stand up at the same time as him. I can tell which car is gonna be his but I still wait for him to make the first move towards it before getting in the passenger side. We take the short drive to the motel, I thank him for the ride and get out as soon as I can.
"Hey, " I look back at him as he stands in the open doorway of his car. "What're you two in town for anyway."
"Not gonna let you steal our hunt Winchester." I smirk towards him and keep walking to our room. Giving the door a few knocks just to be safe, and hearing only the TV playing some ridiculously fake action film gives me the clear to go inside. Riley is on her bed, staring blankly at the screen. When she sees me the TV gets turned off, and her eyes close, she had been waiting for me to come back before she could comfortably fall asleep. The blankets are extremely thin, and my old shirt and shorts don't do much justice for any extra warmth. My eyes close, but I never fall asleep, as always.
.
The next morning we were up early, much to Riley's protest, in our smartest clothes, as we speak to some of the victim's family and friends. The guy's sister and roommate didn't have much information for us when I looked at the notes I took. I look up for just a second to acknowledge the waitress before looking back at my papers, the lady sets the plates down, it's mostly Riley's food anyway.
"Come on, take a break." She says with her mouth already full of pancake.
"We're missing so much yet I feel like it's right in front of our face." Dropping my pen, I replace it with my coffee mug and drink the rest of it.
" We'll figure it out." She assures and when I finally give her a real look her eyes are pointed in a direction outside. I turn my gaze to match hers and see her focus is on the Winchesters. I knew this would happen, I just had hoped I was wrong. What else would practically the most well known hunters be doing in a small town like this.
"Damn it, they're gonna take our hunt. " I groan.
"They can try, we were here first and I bet you got more of a lead anyway. " I go to argue because I know of Sam's records, and he's good at what he does when it comes to research, but Riley's chugging a cup of coffee and walking out the door before I can speak. Leaving a bit of money on the table and rushing to pack all my things up, I follow after her.
"Listen, what we had was great last night but that doesn't mean you can follow me." Is Riley's opening line towards Sam when I get out there, Dean laughs and Sam half smiles shaking his head. They're probably coming from where we just were based on the suits they're in. I finally reach her side and fix the strap of my bag on my shoulder. The boys look at me for a second before looking back at Riley who isn't done talking yet.
"This hunt is ours so don't even think about meddling in on us. "
"Hey, what's wrong with a little help?" Dean says with that smirk I already despise.
"We don't need help." I snap back at him. But then I get confused when Riley doesn't back me up.
"Bo, we could use some help, you said yourself that you didn't have enough, they might have what we're missing" She speaks quietly to me and I'm pissed because she's absolutely right and I still don't want their help.
"We're heading back to where we're staying, you guys can come with us and we'll see if we can piece anything together." Sam offers, the quiet conversation Riley was having with my ear probably wasn't too secret being we're only a few feet away.
"Yeah that's good, Sam come with me." And with that me and Dean are left standing there as Sam and Riley get in her car and drive off to the place. Dean goes to the passenger side of his car and opens the door for me, my eyebrows rise and he just shrugs. I get in the car with a huff and he shuts the door before getting in the drivers side and starting her up. The car ride is similar to last nights with no talking until we get to the motel they've been staying at.
The rest of the day and the late hours of the night are spent with me and Sam "geeking out" together, as Riley called it. Her and Dean just sat back and looked up anything we asked for. After all of us had gone through our fifth round of coffee Riley had called it a night and went to our room and an hour after that Sam headed to bed. I packed up my things roughly just to transport them to our room so I could continue working.
"Goodnight." Dean says when I try to leave without saying anything to him. I hardly glance over my shoulder and give a slight nod and a mumble before slipping out of the room and into ours.
-
"Bo, I don't see why it's so important to you that we do this on our own." Riley complains as I am trying to convince her to leave before we can meet up with the boys. Call me selfish, but I am feeling pretty confident that we have all the information we need after last night with Sam. Instead of answering her, I just start throwing her clothes that somehow managed to explode out of her bag within a night. I hear her groan and then go into the bathroom to get her other things. I slip out of the motel room to go load up the car with our duffel bags. Just as I shut the back car door, I look up to see Dean looking right back at me. What the hell? Why was he always around.
"What?" I ask, the question comes out a little more snarky than I intended. At first I had thought that I would get off easy when he just simply shook his head.
"Well, I definitely was comparing you more to Sam this whole time, but you and me seem to have some things in common too." He says with a sort of surprised tone. I roll my eyes, because the last thing I want is to be compared to Dean Winchester.
" I prefer to work alone too, just me and Sam." He finishes. I nod and decide to end this conversation as soon as I can.
"You should understand that it isn't personal then?" He nods at my comment this time. "Anyways, let's face it, we'll most likely cross paths again won't we? Hopefully it'll be a while" Dean laughs at that and heads back into his room. Riley comes out shortly after and we get in her car and head off to undergo the action of this hunt.

Hey! So I have been wondering this ever since I started watching the show, and I'm sure it's been discussed but who do you think is the better hunter? Sam or Dean? I cannot decide for the life of me
Hi there! Well, this isn’t a potentially loaded question or anything, so I figured I’d give a shot at answering.
I really don’t think either of them is a better hunter. I think they do have slightly different approaches, slightly different strengths and weaknesses, but that they really do complement each other so well.
Hunting in general seems to be a safer occupation when you’ve got backup you trust working with you, but even more it seems like two (or even three *wink wink*) hunters working together when they all know each other’s strengths and weaknesses is the equivalent of a special ops military team going in on a mission together. They can work quickly and silently and get the job done better than any single hunter working alone.
Maybe on a run-of-the-mill salt and burn a single hunter can do just fine on their own, but heck just for grave digging purposes, it’s better as a team…
From the beginning of the series, we knew that Dean had been hunting on his own for a while. He survived, so we have to assume that he was pretty damn good at the job. To this day, I don’t think we really saw Dean’s concerted best effort at hunting in 1.01, partly because he knew he had Sam as backup on the case, but also because at every turn he kept waiting to discover evidence that John had been hurt or killed while hunting the same thing… He was legitimately off his game from worry over his dad.
We’ve also seen instances throughout the series where Sam and Dean have separated for a time for one reason or another, and Dean tended to continue hunting while Sam ran away from hunting (for the most part). 
1.11 was the first short example of this, and it was only Sam returning to help Dean that saved Dean’s life… (again, I contend Dean was emotionally compromised because of his fight with Sam, and Sam leaving him that led to him being sloppy enough to be caught in the first place, but whatever…)
But then in 3.11 we got a first terrifying glimpse of the ruthless sort of hunter that Sam could potentially be on his own, driven by Dean’s death into a sort of Vengeance Mode. Then in 4.01 we began to see how Sam coped with Dean’s actual death, “hunting” with Ruby, and falling more and more under her sway, even after Dean comes back. A lot of Ruby’s plot to manipulate Sam hinged on her convincing Sam that Dean was the “weak” one, and that only Sam was “strong enough” to do what had to be done regarding Lilith. She needed to convince Sam that Dean was lesser, as a hunter or even just intellectually or morally. She literally used that concept to drive a wedge between Sam and Dean.
In s6, when Sam was soulless and Dean had fallen under the spell of Veritas when he’d asked for the truth, we got a bit of insight from Bobby:
BOBBY: I never told anyone that. Why am I telling you? Maybe ‘cause you’re my favorite. Although, Sam’s a better hunter. Lately, anyway.
Sam’s a better hunter– while he’s soulless. And then after he gets his soul back, we learn a lot more about how much “better” a hunter he actually was… in frankly disturbing and horrifying fashion. He wasn’t better at all, just colder and more ruthless, not caring about innocents who were hurt along the way, so long as he got the monster in the end. And even then, he wasn’t all that great about getting the monster… (Arachne specifically, but we’re led to believe there were others like that, such as the girl he got killed and who’d haunted him in 6.22).
But we’ve also seen Dean similarly off the rails, notably after he’d sold his soul and had been playing fast and loose with his own life in order to get the job done on hunts. S3 showed us a Dean who was nearly as reckless as Soulless Sam (but more in a self-destructive way than Sam’s disregard for others in general). Then we had Dean with the Mark of Cain, who may have been efficient and brutal when it came to hunting, but whoa nelly he was out of control to the point where he terrified HIMSELF.
But again both Sam and Dean have their own strengths as well. We’ve been witness to Dean’s incredible gut instincts when it comes to both the supernatural and to just reading regular old people. He’s able to sniff out a case at a hundred paces, and his bullshit detector is set to extra-sensitive.
Sam’s got a way of being absolutely charming and playing the compassionate puppy to the degree that people in the most disturbing circumstances feel they can trust him and open up to him. I mean, go all the way back to 1.11 again:
DEAN: I know it sounds strange, but, uh—you might be in danger.MAN: (annoyed) Look, we’re trying to eat. Okay?DEAN: Yeah. (He looks disappointed. The couple seems worried by DEAN.) You know, my brother could give you this puppy dog look, and you’d just buy right into it.
Sam’s got a gift when it comes to getting people to open up to him. Dean may be the more empathetic and be able to just cold-read people, but Sam’s got this equally important gift. In 6.12, one episode after Sam gets his soul back, Sam sweet-talks them into an interview with one of the victims, and Dean looks so freaking pleased that “his Sam” is back, the Sam who knows how to sweet-talk victims into opening up that way.
There’s also the fact that as kids, Sam was kept out of the hunting for a lot longer than Dean was. Even after he LEARNED about the monsters, he still seemed to be largely exiled to research duty (as we saw during the flashbacks in 7.03, when John and Dean were doing the physical hunting, and Sam was relegated to the library looking up stuff for them).
But Sam’s mostly had two (three if you count Bobby, which we probably should at this point, but for the purposes of this ask, I’m gonna focus on the other two…) main role models as far as what it means to be a good hunter– John and Dean. We saw how horribly Sam clashed with John throughout his life, but he’s largely worked very well together with Dean. Not because Sam and Dean shared a similar style, but because they complemented each other so well.
But then there’s Sam’s own words in 8.14:
Sam: I’m closing the gates. It’s a suicide mission for you.I want to slam Hell shut, too, okay? But I want to survive it. I want to live, and so should you. You have friends up here, family. I mean, hell, you even got your own room now. You were right, okay? I see light at the end of this tunnel. And I’m sorry you don’t – I am. But it’s there. And if you come with me, I can take you to it.Dean: Sam, Be smart.Sam: I am smart, and so are you. You’re not a grunt, Dean. You’re a genius – when it comes to lore, to – you’re the best damn hunter I have ever seen – better than me, better than dad. I believe in you, Dean. So, please – please believe in me, too.
Sam may be the more inclined to pursue the scholarly side of hunting, but that doesn’t mean that Dean’s deficient in research or understanding the lore. We KNOW he’s probably read every book in the bunker, just as Sam probably has. They just use and process the information differently.
Dean may be the more interested in the actual physical hunting, but that doesn’t mean that Sam is any less physically capable on a hunt than Dean is. They each just have their own approach to implementing what they know and the tools at their disposal to dispatch the bad guys.
Either one of them could put themselves in the running for Best Hunter Ever, but honestly I believe the entire point is that the analysis of the matter leads to a draw every time.
But really, the most formidable hunting team on the planet has to be Team Free Will. The three of them, when they work together, have always been enough to save the world.

What do you make of Dean having so few kills this season & none since 12.11? At first, I thought the writers might just want to showcase Sam a bit. But now it's actually a pattern, where Sam or a guest actor get the big hero moments, never Dean. It really stood out for me in last night's episode, where Dean got to finally carry the Colt but Sam was the one who actually used it against 'both' bad guys. I'm hoping that it's not just Dabb's bias but that there might be a story reason behind it?
@suebsg9 said: I am just curious about your opinion on Sam getting another kill. Not that I minded Dean being victim especially to a god he did do a very good job getting out of the plastic wrap. And enjoyed what you had to say about the latest episode. I miss Dean getting big kills.         
Hey you two!
Hope you don’t mind replying to both your asks in one go. I thougt it would make sense, as they are about the same thing. :) 
While I am absolutely not convinced this may not just be due to writers/showrunners bias, I do think it should be considered a conscious pattern that will culminate in some sort of resolution with likely pretty painful and bad outcome. We have seen the pattern not just with Colt, but something similar too with Dean never getting to actually shoot the grenade launcher for example. So Dean being the one to carry the Colt (while still ultimately imo definitely not knowing the full story about how the BritMoL managed to get it in their hands in the first place - meaning he doesn’t know that Mary was the one choosing the gun over her sons lives) and not shooting it, imo may pave up to a moment in the finale where Dean will maybe fire the gun, but potentially not because he wants to per se.
I personally don’t mind Dean not getting “big kills” all the time. In fact I rather liked that Dean is showing in his very human measures and ability that he can be one huge force to mess with - even for a God. I find that to be much more powerful than if Dean just shot the Colt. The most iconic Colt moment will remain Dean’s Azazel kill anyway and that is kind of where I think the season is headed again loosely based on some of the vey loose spoilers circulating at the moment on the finale “with something disturbing and shocking happening”, the Js shooting some “scene with lots of past characters” that happens after the blackout of the ending of the episode or that the fandom will “hate Lucifer even more than it already does after the season finale” (this last bit annoys me most because it to me suggest we will still have fucking Lucifer - way overdone and boring and repitiive Lucifer in S13 *huge and long sigh* - please kill that character off, please!!!)
So what am I going on about? I personally could imagine that at the end of the season all of the Mary and Lucifer alignments may come together after all. There was a lot of focus on Mary as Lucifer’s vessel in the first half, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that got revisited. Basically I have like three different scenarios that I could see play out in one way or another or as a combination.
1) The finale will somehow feature Sam as Lucifer’s vessel again. But then Mary will intervene and offer herself up as her way to “make up for being the one to “start it all”. So Lucifer would skip vessels and with that of course torture the Winchesters in new volumes. Then I suppose Ketch may factor in into the story too and I could imagine him being the one to shoot the Colt expecting it to kill Lucifer, but of course we know that won’t work and therefore he ends up killing Mary. And after that possibly trying to do the same with Sam and Dean.
That is one possibility, but I rather think actually that instead of Ketch (who would factor in on this arc in some other way) Dean will be the one to fire the Colt, but not because he wants to, but because he is forced to do it by Lucifer or Daegon or someone else.
That would bring together the threads of Dean being shown to be forced to do things against his will by his loved ones as well as bringing in the Colt and Dean firing it in a new way. And I feel it would match the markers of “Lucifer being hated even more” if Dean was force to kill his mother and it would definitely count as “disturbing”.
2) I can see the scenario described above also imagine to play out not with Lucifer who possesses Mary, but Daegon instead, because that would bring the show full circle to the end of S1 when Dean has the Colt aimed at John possessed by Azazel and can’t bring himself to shoot him. It would make a whole lot of sense if they revisited that scene imo. I mean, I wouldn’t want that burden to sit on Dean’s shoulders to be the one to shoot Daegon and in order to kill her also kill Mary, but in reation to poetic symmetry it would absolutely work. And this time Dean would be able to pull through. And maybe then Ketch would shoot Dean, because he can’t be without Mary or sth. ;P
3) In a turnaround to the ending of S11 where Mary’s return was aligned with Sam getting shot, another possibility would be that this time a season may end with Mary leaving and Dean getting shot. Now, it could be that Mary is the one to do it. Whether accidentally while wanting to fire the Colt at someone else or because she is forced to do it by Lucifer or Daegon or hell, even, Ketch. I know there has been talk about death foreshadowing and while I personally didn’t get that vibe from mayn scenes, I guess one could say that if you saw those, this is what they may lead up to. Though if we talk death, I personally would always have thought rather metaphorical death in so far as Dean would rise as a more free person, but that’s a topic for another time.
So these are kind of the ways how I see the Colt and Dean not firing it could be revisited or tied up. Of course it is also more than possible that Dean will simply be the one to pull the trigger of the Colt when killing Ketch, but yeah, I’d prefer something less “blah”. ;)
In any regard and while of course the season finale spoilers are to be take with a bucket load of salt, I think this season could end with more than one Winchester death (which of course won’t be permament) and the scene that the Js talked about they filmed for S13 could be understood as a scene on Heaven.
All that said, there are two more thoughts that I have been kicking around in my head and one would be - though I am fairly certain they won’t go that route, because it would render the entire season “useless”, because nothing would have truly happened - that maybe at the end of the season it would turn out that Dean was in the Empty after all. But again, I don’t think the “it was all a dream”, would be something they’d do, because yeah that’s lazy and bad writing 101 and would basically confirm that Dabb had no clue what to do with this season and therefore pulled a 360 right at the end.
Much more than that though and this has popped up as an idea in a conversation with the lovely @lemondropsonice who propsed what if Amara returns? While I think it’s sadly wildly unlikely to happen, I have to say I would LOVE that, because wouldn’t that be just beautiful? For her to return, because she expected that giving Dean his mother back would heal him and make him happy, but instead it all just got a million times worse and so much got destroyed. I would love that because it would emphasize how much she actually care about Dean - she defintely seems to have cared about him a lot more than his actual mother does. So what if she returned and asked if she should “turn back time” and let Mary keep resting in peace? It would be a twist on the “it was all a dream”-scenario that I would be able to live with, if Dean was able to rememeber everything that happens and the development wouldn’t be erased from the Winchesters’ brains. Yet, it would undo nephilim problem for example and various other things.
Question of course would be if Dean would be able to tell her “do it” or if he’d plead for her to not do anything, that he may not be happier as she had hoped for him to be, but that he is glad that he finally knows the truth and that he values that more than living with a memory that was comforting at the time, but sadly never truly real.
Of course all of this and any of these scenarios would place major emotional torture and hardship on Dean that is beyond comprehension or may actually see him hurt badly or dying due to his family’s misplaced trust etc., but yeah I guess while endings like this couldn’t redeem how awfully executed and written this season was, it sure could show that maybe the showrunners and writers may have realized that they may have to do a better job in S13.
