#In his debut Castiel was tasked by Heaven to watch over Dean Winchester and to date it is the only command he has not failed to keep

[unhinged-jackles]

Rewatching 4x18: The Monster at the End of This Book and it is absolutely fucking insane with the context of season 15.

Like first of all, the title. It's the episode where Chuck is introduced and we all know now how he is God and was the final big bad the boys had to defeat. I know it's a bit iffy if it was always planned for Chuck to be God but coincidence or not, what a lovely parallel.

But more than anything else, throughout the entire episode Dean is desperately trying to break free of the narrative, of Chuck's visions. Sam doesn't give a flying fuck but that's a whole different can of worms.

The only thing that allows Dean to do that is Castiel. Cas chooses free will when he chooses to tell Dean that archangels are tied to prophets in order to help him help Sam. When Dean goes to get Chuck, Chuck says,

"What are you doing here? I didn't write this."

Which takes place only a couple of scenes after Cas tells Dean that a prophet's visions can't be changed.

"As he has seen it, so it shall come to pass."

Castiel defied the word of a God with one single decision.

Cas choosing free will is the catalyst, and will always continue to be. Look at what Chuck said to Castiel in 15x17: Unity,

"You know what every other version of you did after 'gripping him tight and raising him from perdition?' They did what they were told. But not you. Not the 'one off the line with a crack in his chassis.'"

Cas has always been the one thing that Chuck couldn't control, even from the moment we first met Chuck way back in season 4, and that fact alone makes me fucking feral.

the first thing i heard clear as a bell dean winchester is saved -> you don’t think you deserve to be saved -> in his debut castiel was tasked by heaven to watch over dean winchester and to date it is the only command he has not failed to keep -> there’s one thing strong enough to stop her -> ever since i took that burden that curse i wondered what it could be what my true happiness could even look like -> ever since we met ever since i pulled you out of hell -> i love you.
