Broken Prayers by withthekeyisking ❤️ [sam/chuck, E]

Sam is someone who prayed all his life. He always believed in God, always had faith, even if Dad and Dean sneered at the concept. He just never in a million years ever thought he would actually meet God, not even after meeting all His angels.

And he never imagined meeting God would go like this. [11x21, sam + faith]

172a - countdown by ani_coolgirl ❤️ [wincest, T]

Sam Winchester purifies his blood. It may be a pointless exercise; the problem has never been what he's done, but what he is. [8x23]

Bunk(er) Buddy by withthekeyisking [sam &/ lucifer, M] ❤️

It took Sam a long time to feel like the bunker was home, and now it's ruined. Because Lucifer, the person responsible for the nightmares that still wake Sam up screaming, is not only living in it, but living in his room. [11x22]

growing pains by apex__predator [wincest, E]

The way it happened— the way Sam remembers it happening— is laughably mundane. All you understand when you’re that young is what you’re told by the people who are supposed to love you. [extremely underage, dean!whump as well]

screaming birds sound an awful lot like singing by withthekeyisking [sam/tim/reggie (hunters from 5.03), E]

Sam has done his best to move past what Tim and Reggie did to him, pretending it never happened at all. But running into them again makes that very difficult—especially when Dean gets involved.

143 - stupid b ani_coolgirl [wincest, sam/other, M]

Exhaustion makes Sam stupid and desperate. No (good) solutions are found. [7x17, wincest + sam/the dealer]

I used to scream ferociously by angelszn [sam/lucifer, sam/cas, sam & jack, E]

Lucifer brings Sam back for Jack. Lucifer brought Sam back for Jack. [13x21–22, first part of 3 work series]

Don't cry baby, day will be dawning by merle_p [sam/bobby, E]

Sam breaks down, and Bobby is there to pick up the pieces. [post 3x16]

Like A Girl by angelszn (artbabe) [wincest + sam/bobby, E]

Bobby wants Sam, but he knows Dean would never let him just take him. So he uses a little potion to get his way and give Dean a bit of a treat too.

[dearmrshudson]

The post of saddest(?) supernatural moment gave me the idea to maka a list of my own... You know, an honest list which will not push any agenda or exclude one of the main character completely to forcefully feed to a romantic pair which does not even exist.

so here it goes-

10. Dean's reaction after Sam's death in 13x21 :

This one is so nominal and insignificant to be in this list and not one of top moments for a lot, but this scene ripped my heart open when I saw it for the first time. It manages to show us how Dean's whole world will literally fall apart and make him an empty vessel if Sam is gone and he can do nothing about it - and Jensen manages to portray it with just a walk, two blank eyes and then one drop of tear. Kudos.

9. Church Scene in 'Sacrifice' (8x23):

Anyone who has not cried in this scene? Perfeftly shows the core of the show, the deep love between two brothers- despite all the reasons, all the idiological differences, all the mature discussion and all- Sam is the baby brother of Dean; at the end he needs Dean to be there as a big bro, to tell him to let it go, to clutch him in his chest. Ultimately they will always choose each other and nothing else will come between them.

8. Dean's death in 9x23:

One of the saddest death of Dean, and perhaps it comes to this list because of the build-up and drama follows this. Both had their own reasons for the tension they had this whole season, but when the tragedy comes it hits so hard that all those logics fell apart. It scares to peep in Sam's headspace at this time of dean's dying- imagine you discarding the person you love the most as you are reasonably angry with him, and in a few days he is dying in your arms when you have hardly talked out your differences.

7. Why don’t you believe in us too (14x12) :

Probably should come much later in this list, but this scene stood out in my eyes because it was such a fresh air in the terrible plotless mimicry that SPN had become in later seasons. The scene after ages which sums up Sam and Dean, the codependent brothers whom we had forgotten. Such a long time after we see Sam the little brother, witness the emotional turmoil he was going through silently and how it exploded. The only scene which makes season 14 worth remembering. Also Jared just nailed this scene!

6.) Dead or Alive (3x16):

This scene breaks my heart in pieces. Dean bravely going for the last fight before the horrible death he will be facing. And he trying to cheer up baby bro, he wants the last memory with his brother to be in this car- singing along together... How his face slowly glooms at the end and his eyes full of fear... Early seasons really were gems!

5. Sam in Mystery spot (3x11) :

Undoubtedly one of the best SPN episode with perfect blend of mystery, fun, laughter, tragedy and emotion... The funny vibe of the episode ends in a moment when we see Sam is not waking up from the nightmare loop. Then we see a robot- a scary robot who only wants to get his brother back at any cost. This episode is yet another example of how Sam loves Dean just as fiercely as Dean does, and he is not any less codependent.

4. Barn scene and alone Sam (15x20) :

God! What can I say about this!

Just want to add, Sam wandering alone in the bunker after creamating Dean hurts me equally.

3. John's death (2x01):

Cannot forget this one. This episode happens to be another favourite of mine, and the way John sacrifices himself for his son proves that a father can go to any extent for his children. The farewell scene of John - where he asks for forgiveness and goodbye to dean without him understanding brings tears to my eyes. Such a beautiful acting by JDM and so realistic portrayal of a flawed, helpless and loving father.

2. End of Season 5 (5x22)

The ground was set, the battle was about to begin, the ultimate faceoff between Lucifer and Michael was going to start- then what happens? A stubborn idiot boy with a muscle car and hellbent attitude comes in between- knowing that he cannot survive this- just because one of these celestial entities have captured his brother as a vessel and he won’t leave his brother alone. Till his last drop of blood he keeps on trying- trying to reach his brother who is trapped under something much bigger- keeps on telling that It's okay, he is not alone, his big brother is here. And guess what, he succeed. His brother broke free the bind of one of the strongest entity of universe and fought. The climax scene gives me goosebump always followed by a bunch of grief and saddness the ending carries. Had season 5 been the last season of SPN, and this be the exact way the series ended, I would absolutely have no regret!

1. Sammy's first Death (2x21):

No matter how many sad scenes are perfectly executed in SPN, nothing can exceed the emotion of this one. Jensen will also not be able to exceed the level of performance be set in this particular scene. Period.

So this is it... I must have excluded many. And turns out my list is full of Sam and Dean only and I am also not unbiased 🤣🤣 Well, there are sad scenes that do not involve only the brothers and I still like them, but not my top 10. Maybe have to make list of top 11 to 20 in order to include them. 😁

Please share your favourite saddest top 10 as well.

3x16, No Rest for the Wicked

Critical theory: Family. Inevitability. 

Discussion question(s): The meta narrative—Dean went to hell because of the writers strike. How does this affect our viewing of this episode, and indeed the season arc? 

Key quotes: Bobby, “Family don’t end with blood, boy.” 

Further reading: Bon Jovi smoke and mirrors. (@zombiegirldean)(This was added after we watched the episode, so is not discussed specifically, but is very relevent to our discussion.)

Discussion: 

Lilith is weird and creepy. Is she thee biblical Lilith? That would make her. The oldest (except from maybe Lucifer). [would it?]

Similar to Jus in Bello. They made the decision that they made, because of course they did, because they refuse to accept that this is war, because they handle this the way they always have [~the way Dad taught us]. They were never gonna go about it any other way. People/demons keep trying to get them to make decisions that they were never going to make. Because it’s them. 

Dean’s composure for Sam. [Dead or alive scene. That was for Sam’s benefit. Dean is scared, but it got Sam laughing. And as soon as Sam’s not looking, Dean’s composure breaks] 

[meta. I read them some info about how the writer’s strike affected this season, not only cutting it short, but delaying or scrapping certain plot lines. Of course, building to the major change this season; Dean was not supposed to go to hell.]. Kai, “God bless the writer’s strike.” Iga, “Of course he should have gone to hell.” The show talks about inevitability over and over again. Of course he should have gone to hell. That was the consequence. If they fixed it / broke the deal, it defeats the purpose. It would’ve been kinda bad writing. [The writer’s strike changed this entire show, to its core, forever.] It was the beginning domino. 

Star student: Kai, discussion in relation to Jus in Bello / They were never going to do this any other way. 

[fictionkinfessions]

Tonight, I learned that the end scene of 3x16 of supernatural is difficult to watch in a Fallon shift. It's a 2 for one kin trauma combo. Like dad dying, and hellhounds are bad enough on their own. But dad being killed by hellhounds is... yikes. Sam and Bobby wouldn't let me see the body, which in hindsight was a good call, I really didn't need to see him like that, but I was upset about it at the time because it stopped me from getting closure. Dean was so sure they were going to get Lilith that he didn't say goodbye to me.

It was frustrating when he came back to life, too, because Sam and Bobby are like, "What the hell were you thinking, letting him inside and *hugging* him what if that wasn't Dean?!" But I *knew* it was Dean. There are many things people can fake and fake well, but the vibe someone gives off is not one of those things. And thanks to my psychic powers, I am *the* vibe checker. Also, if he was something else, instead, I also would have known the imposter was a liar when he said it was him because I'm also a near infallible lie detector. The only people to ever successfully lie to me were Chuck and Lucifer, though I think Lucifer's success could be attributed to the stockholm syndrome I developed, causing me to overlook it.

spiritual miscarriages in supernatural:

3x16 dean going to hell

5x22 lucifer beating dean up and sam jumping in the cage

6x22 wall coming down in sam's head

9x23 dean dying and becoming a demon

10x14 dean killing cain

10x23 dean losing the mark and sam unleashing the darkness

14x20 sam shooting god

15x20 dean's final death

[lalaith217]

What I really like about the writing for this show is that they're pretty consistent with their themes. Like Chloe choosing to stay to defuse the bomb and Lucifer having to accept that this is her choice, even though he might not want to. But it's still her choice to make and he would never take that away from her.

And then there's Lucifer always staying by her side because he's her partner. He would never leave her alone and I love that he says that they both know that. And there is so much between the lines here and in their eyes. So much unsaid.
