#Parents Dean!Cas

[lovealwayssay]

I would pay an ungodly amount of money for a Supernatural finale where Dean rescues Cas from the Empty and tells him he loves him too, Eileen comes back to be with Sam, and Jack chooses to live with the four of them in the bunker as a happy family.

okay but you see sam has ALSO fallen for dean's act. sam also believes dean to be the macho, daddy's soldier, beer boobs cars guy he presents himself as. this is why sam makes fun of dean whenever he even lightly steps out of that mold and thinks it's harmless banter instead of attacking an insecurity. it's why he laughs when john talks down to dean in the early seasons and it's why he seems surprised when dean is more comfortable with himself in the later seasons. it's why he just scoffs but doesn't push it when dean puts up a front and refuses to talk about his emotions and just accepts whatever excuse he makes at face value. it's why he offers dean a strip club to make him feel better when cas dies. and this isn't his fault!! dean has spent a very long time perfecting this image in front of everyone and ESPECIALLY to sam because along with it comes safety and security and stability and the only person. who has consistently been able to see through it. is castiel

There is not a SINGLE thing I love more than Cas offering threatening to kill John Winchester. Cas would smite anything that tried to hurt Dean and he would be BEYOND pissed that someone Dean trusts as much as his father treats him like that. It is my favorite fucking thing. I implore people to make up stupid reasons in your fic for John Winchester and Castiel to be in the same room to make sure that Cas gets to fucking deck him.

The SPN writers were cowards when they made it so that John and Cas weren’t in the same room together during Lebanon because you better fucking believe that would have been the end for John in all timelines.

oh this show can go straight to hell

[thenameisgul]

Jack: Why is everyone so obsessed with top or bottom? Honestly, I’d just be excited to have a bunk bed. Dean : Dean : I'm gonna tell them. Castiel: Don't you dare.

It is finally the first day of the @crack-in-the-chassis postings! I am delighted to have collaborated with @friendofcarlotta on her hilarious Simpsons AU. Read it here:

Corner House of Horror

Get ready for a gallery of characters all acting silly, and of course an evil plot only the Winchesters can stop!

When I read friendofcarlotta's fic, it was instantly obvious I had to try Matt Groening's style. As the title of the fic is inspired by the Simpsons Halloween Specials, "Treehouse of Horror", I tried my best to pay tribute to the promo posters they did for those episodes. The second art piece I did was just stuck in my mind, and impossible to resist making!

Thank you friendofcarlotta for being such an enthusiastic partner <3

Toxic destiel fans that say sastiel had no chemistry only rely on the fact that they barely had screentime together because if they interacted more they would see they had so much more chemistry then destiel.

Its funny how-

- sam don't blame cas for everything almost every other episode

-He makes sure he's okay

-He understand him and doesn't push him

-They worry about each other

-Every time they meet after being separated they go hug each other first thing

-They held hands from the moment they met

-THEY LITERALLY HAVE A CHILD TOGETHER

and people still say destiel is better.

And for people saying

"jack was dean's kid" you are boring and close minded because yes they had their moments but did we forget that HE TRIED TO KILL HIM MULTIPLE TIMES??? while sam believed in him from the literal get go???

[ellastarkwinchester3000]

Castiel: "Why do you inhale your food? You should eat slower."

Dean: "I grew up with John Winchester. If you didn't eat fast, you didn't eat at all."

I know a huge theme of the show is that the characters, especially the brothers, keep each other human.

That said, there's something very special about Dean and Cas. The mark of the handprint that permeates their bond is a historic (cave-painting-like) symbol of humanity, too.

Humanity is a word for the qualities that make us human, such as the ability to love and have compassion, be creative, and not be a robot or alien.

And Dean and Cas don't "keep" each other human.

They make each other more human by giving each other something that's just them, by representing not acts of utilitarianism and duty...but by "just being."

For each other, they represent tireless, dogged determination and hope, a niggling persevering love that helps them believe they don't belong in 24-7, suicide-coded total warfare (symbols: Purgatory, Heaven, hunting), that they aren't just weapons...good for nothing else.

Their existence challenges the other not to give into unthinking, hopeless nihilism. They challenge each other to rethink what they've always known, to forgo perfectionism, to move beyond a black-and-white idealization of loved ones, to de-romanticize what a life together should look like.

They represent to each other a hope for the future.

on season 14… I know some things were planned some weren’t / were met with network pushback whatever whatever… Dean and Cas were absolutely having some crazy emotional affair by mid-season even if they would never give it a name and Cas was regularly spending the night in his room even if he didn’t actually sleep…

local man is homophobic bc he *checks notes* is friends with lesbian?

Okay, I think I can finally share this now.

In my version of "Moriah" Chuck orders Jack to kill Castiel with the promise of bringing things back to how they were before all the mess they're in now, Mary included. Jack starts panicking and crying and is clearly being played but he's in no state to rationalize things so he starts blurting out all kinds of stuff and eventually resolves to actually do it. Sam and Dean are forced to watch by Chuck and are totally incapacitated just like us, hypothetical viewers, are made to watch Jack's tragedy as it unfolds.

But Castiel is okay with that and actually plans to do the deed himself in order to avoid at least this one pain in Jack's life so he comes close to Jack and holds his face in one hand while the other is ready for the blade. He needs to tell him one last thing before the end. They're both crying but somehow Cas find the courage to recite a different type of blessing over the children, one that of course doesn't involve God and it goes something like this:

Jack, don't cry. It's okay, it's okay.

I need to tell you something, Jack and I need you to listen carefully, okay? Okay, good.

Being elected as your father has been the greatest joy and honor of my life. Hey, it's okay, shhh, it's okay, listen to me.

It was a joy so great that I got scared, Jack. I'm sorry Jack but I got so scared. I didn't know it then but it was this gnawing fear of losing it all, of losing you, that made me make... many mistakes. It was this fear that prevented me from understanding who you really are, from seeing the truth. So here it is.

Jack, you were, are and always will be such a luminous, beautiful and important presence in this world. Ah, as a matter of fact, in any world. Because you're... you. And you are... amazing.

No, no, no listen to me now, please, shhh, it's okay: You have to know that whatever happens in your life, I will be there for you. No matter what, I will be by your side. If things will go wrong, I'll be there to give you my energy. If things will go right, I'll also be there to give you even more energy.

You must never forget that you're loved, Jack. Oh, look at you: my son...my son... I love you. So much.

Cas, in an instant, is ready with his angel blade but it's in this moment that the Shadow erupts into the world to take Castiel away: no reasoning, no strategic plan, nothing. The moment of happiness is the moment of unconditional love.

Chuck's frantic because this "unconditional love" thing wasn't in his script and yells that it was not supposed to happen this way, that he gave them the possibility to access everything they ever wanted, the price was just one self-loathing, doomed-anyway angel but it still wasn't enough for them, was it?

It's also the moment where Sam, briefly freed from Chuck's powers, gets his lucidity back and decides to pull the trigger on Chuck (and himself). In the background, Jack's screaming and crying so much that the mere force of his screams is enough to resurrect the whole cemetery but Cas is not coming back to him.

Chuck is wounded by Sam (who's also hurting in return) and is forced to flee. Dean is also wounded beyond repair and is like turned to stone and almost can't breathe because he's living, again, one of the worst moments of his life as we go back to a distorted, more messed-up version of s12 finale and to the beginning of Jack's tragic story.

Jack is spiralling and he's out of control and out of himself as he starts opening woundsrifts after rifts through dimensions and worlds looking for Chuck, looking for the Empty, looking for whatever comes first at this point because he's moved by the dangerous, unpredictable and explosive bomb that is revenge spurred by love. Until Billie finds him.

i have a theory that the baby!jack fanaticism in the fandom partly comes from the fact that on june 26th, 2017 (less than two months after jack was introduced as a character) the us supreme court ruled that queer couples were allowed to adopt in all 50 states. so naturally, as kelly died giving birth to jack, dean was in the midst of his widower arc, and the fandom thought that jack was going to be a baby, we had a wave of romanticization of infant adoption for destiel.

[dean-mikaelson]

the mixtape is dean's reciprocation to cas' "I love you." and so cas tries to return it when dean is mad at him. he thinks he doesn’t deserve it anymore. but love "is a gift," and so dean gives it back. "you keep those." he's angry, yes, but that doesn't mean the love isn't there anymore. and he wants cas to carry it with him. always.

[sheepstiel]

one the one hand. cas in the winchesters yes. on the other hand. mr jackle please give the deancas reunion its own space.
