listen dean’s favourite food being the stereotypical homemade by happy house wife with happy family, peak of domesticity and all things comfort pie is something that can be so personal actually

imagine him as a child living out of motel rooms, these caricatures of home, watching reruns of old tv shows; blurry black and white images showing a hard working father coming home to his happy children and delighted wife. a wife who is so protected and at peace, she does nothing more with her day than bake a pie for her family, all of them gathering around a table for a slice

imagine dean opening his plastic packaged convenience store pie slice and taking a bite at the same time as them and convincing himself it tastes the same

#kind of an addendum to my other food post but god this hurts #pie to me is so strongly associated with the 50s mainly bc of old cartoons and ads depicting bright happy families with full dinner spreads #a pie either centre stage or on the windowsill #and dean has such a strong connection to media; movies and tv specifically #and most peoples image of the 50s have been completely warped by propaganda and tv #the typical 50s nuclear family wasnt real but people cling to its facade anyway #they hold it up as the pillar of tradition and family values #but it wasnt real #just like john and marys happy life together before she died wasnt real #just like deans idea of their family together could never be real #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #carry on my wayward son #talk meta to me #supernatural #dean winchester #meta #sam winchester #john winchester #mary winchester #john winchesters a+ parenting #save post
