I saw your post about Free to Be You And Me, and had to stop and blink for like thirty straight seconds, because I could not for the life of me even remember what Dean was doing in that episode. That was the episode with hunters and Lucifer all stalking Sam! That was the Lucifer showing up as Jess and appealing to all of Sam's guilt episode! It was the Sam spitting out demon blood episode! It was the talk about addiction with a stranger in the middle of nowhere episode! Who watches that and thinks about anything other than Sam?!

Real and true anon, real and true. I said in the original tags that you couldn't pay me to have to remember/think about the non Sam portions of the episode lol.

#i will say for nuance although I love to be hyperbolic about this stuff #that theoretically there is interesting stuff to be engaged with on the Dean/Cas side of things #particually how it relates to Dean's desperate attempts to fill the absence of sam with cas #and the ways in which its notable that he's doing this with someone who is in some ways more pliable than sam #and he can do the “fun” things he doesn't get to do with sam #and how its just all actually kinda sad and pathetic #but unfortunatley my bandwidth is limited due to the fandom environment #and given how little time that side of the fandom spends actually really thinking about the horrors of Sam's side of the epiosde #I think its only fair to redress the balance #but also I find a lotttt of the dean/cas stuff in the epiosde repugnant #from the point of view of Cas being (especially at this point) very ace coded #and the whole “you are not going to die a virgin” stuff #too much for this ace to have to bare I'm afraid i HATE it #ANYWAYS #haha #replies #I guess you couldn't pay me to think about it but I will do it for free on occasion but I don't have to like it lol
