#and I'm not saying he's ALWAYS like that but its a good dang chunk of time

Here's a thought.
Sam has been irrevocably changed since his coming back from hell (and jumping in of course). So often I find myself looking at later season's Sam, a Sam who's not a firey rebel against what the world wants of him, a Sam who would fight for himself. This is a quietly submissive Sam who can't stand to disappoint Rock No.1. Someone who takes on pain again and again and again because he's so used to it.
Sam from the first seasons it's not the same Sam as the later. This is a broken, traumatized man who excels at being high functioning and I am SO sure of it.
He LOOKS resigned and tired a lot of the time. And it reminds me of hell!Sam begging himself not to remember. hell!Sam knew what he was talking about and what we're seeing in later seasons is his reflection.
And let me throw in a Silmarillion reference because why the heck not. Like the souls of elves go to Mando's halls, Sam's soul needed to go to heaven and heal from all the years of hell he suffered (earthly ones and hell ones). He was not ready to be reembodied in earth and now he's come wrong.
Like 5 different entities warned us about Sam's shredded to ribbons soul. To me, that doesn't sound like a soul that should've been put back in a body.

I've been thinking about this for literal years.#I could probably do an actual deep dive with images and moments and stuff but that would require time and work 😅#there is something meek sometimes about later season Sam and Im not talking about season 6 when his memories were leeking out#or season 7 when he was going crazy#but LATER seasons#and I'm not saying he's ALWAYS like that but its a good dang chunk of time#and like#he always needs to justify his every little action (that could be perceived as a mistake) to Dean#I'm sorry for this and that#Sam Winchester#spn#Supernatural#Sam winchester analysis#sure lol#Supernatural analyse#do people cal thia meta?#spn meta#hell!sam#hell sam#Not me making an original post here every other blue moon#but hey#it's a new day all the time.
