#cas' cw show updates

[gretahayes]

See the situation is that my brother is watching the CW Flash show. His only prior knowledge to dc is teen titans go and my inane ramblings abt comics that he ignores most of the time. Because I spend most of my time in the living room I watch the show with him whenever he puts it on. And. Its fun? Its sweet? But ALSO they pull the dumbest shit and as a comic fan it has me horrified. In the season my brother is in we had Jenni Ognats my beloved. EXCEPT they made Jenni Barry's daughter from the future? And named her Nora? BUT it still is definitely Jennifer because she is literally called XS and her hero costume is literally just Jenni's. And because you are one of my bestest friends on this hellsite you get to suffer with this knowledge too.

Expect future updates as my brother goes through the show.

I watched that show religiously when I was younger (only because my mom watched it and I was there enough times that she called me to watch it whenever she was watching it)! It was my first introduction to the Flash in earnest. I did drop it after Iris and Barry got engaged (and my mom lost interest), but I adored it. I know it's horrifically inaccurate now, but they're amazing actors (Grant Gustin loml) and it's an adorable show. (spoiler here) Bart is introduced as their son instead of their grandson later on as well, and it's certainly an Idea

Canon Destiel Timeline Masterpost

I wrote this all in a fugue state while listening to Green Grow the Lilacs on repeat so forgive any mistakes. @gay-fae ask and ye shall receive

So much has happened in the long and storied history of his fandom so I've decided to try to document it. I've started by looking up every time that canon destiel, destiel event, misha collins, jackles, or some other search terms have spiked on Google and cross referenced them with tumblr or twitter posts from that day. I know a lot of this is Misha stuff, but he does tend to be the one to say things

November 5th, 2020: Season 15, Episode 18 "Despair" airs and Castiel declares his love to Dean. The presidential election, Georgia turning blue, the presumed retirement of Vladamir Putin, Dabi from My Hero Academia, Ouran Host Club season 2, Sherlock season 5, the president of Bolivia being attacked with dynamite, ongoing BLM protests, a twitter artist making racist art of Ted Bundy, Hetalia returning, a dead man being elected Representative for North Dakota, V for Vendetta, scientists discovering a "hell" planet that rains rocks and has lava oceans, and half of Europe being in lockdown all became tumblr news around the same time. Some of these are true, some not.

November 8th, 2020: Misha Collins, in a panel with Richard Speight, states that the confession scene was a "declaration of homosexual love", and that when Castiel goes to the Empty, it is an example of the "Kill your gays" trope.

November 19th, 2020: The finale airs and it is not well loved to say the least. The episode is short, Dean dies by falling on a nail to death fighting vampire clowns, and there are several characters left with dangling unresolved plot threads and arcs, including Castiel. The car is in heaven though. There is very little heard from the cast and crew, if anything.

November 22nd, 2020: Misha Collins, in a livestream, tells a fan that Castiel and Jack are remaking heaven together, Cas has his wings back, and they are rainbow-colored. He had, however, mentioned the rainbow wings before.

November 24th, 2020: The Spanish dub of the confession is released and a "rogue" translator has written "Y yo a ti" or "I love you too" as Dean's response. Destiel goes canon in Spanish. Tumblr stops working as a result.

November 25th, 2020: tumblr user @thebloggerbloggerfun claims Jensen Ackles said "I had a member of the film crew record the confession scene on my phone for me" #unsourced #releasethetapes

November 26th, 2020: Misha doesn't appreciate the rogue translator, but walks that opinion back later the same day

November 27th, 2020: A "leaked" Italian dub of the confession scene shows a mutual confession.

December 1st, 2020: Twitter user @mothdean says "misha I know you have a stan acc and spy on us so can we have a hazel update please"

December 3rd, 2020: Misha tweets about Hazel snoring and this is taken as possible confirmation of Misha's secret stan account

March 17th, 2021: Sam and Eileen are getting married! I have no idea how this came about but I'm happy for them

March 23rd, 2021: Chad Lindberg and Samantha Ferris claim on Twitter that the Roadhouse party was about Valentine's day and not a wedding. Ferris specifically said that she worked on the show and that people tried to make Dean/Cas into "something that it wasn't", She also stated she doesn't "know what queerbaiting is" and that it was due to an "agenda". This led to #deanisbi trending on Twitter and Tumblr.

Jensen will reprise his role as Dean and will narrate.

But Jared Padalecki first says that he is happy for the Ackles's, he later said he was "gutted", then responded to Robbie Thompson's tweet calling him a "coward" and saying "what an awful thing you've done". The next day, Jensen and Jared both do damage control and say they'll always be brothers

July 17th, 2021: People are asking if Destiel will be canon in Space Jam, Misha's poetry book's cover is revealed to lukewarm reviews and people are talking about a particular poem about piss, and Perfume Genius releases an article that is a self-insert vore fanfiction about having sex with Jensen Ackles

Episode 110 - 6.06 You Can’t Handle the Truth

aka truth coming out of her well to punch humanity in the nuts...

Welcome to the brutal, painful truth. Let’s start this week with a trigger warning for suicide and implied offscreen rape of a minor, because even if this show will gloss over stuff like that, I try to give a heads up about it. Because yikes…

Poor Dean has been desperate for the truth all season long, but everyone and everything has stood in his way. And now? he’s about to be kicked, repeatedly and forcefully, with the harshest possible version of the truth on all fronts.

He suffers the consequences of his poor choices in the previous episode regarding Lisa (and again, if Dean was actually Ben’s father, you’d think that would be something she would’ve been compelled to reveal in a Most Painful Possible Way in this episode, but she doesn’t, which is the final nail in my personal coffin for the fandom theory that Ben was really Dean’s kid... but that’s entirely beside the point of this episode, really...)

And we learn the truth that Sam has known all along that something was really wrong with him, and he’s been hiding it. And also unfortunately, Cas only shows up BEFORE Dean gets hit with the truth spell, so we’re still in the dark about what’s actually going on with him, though it is becoming clear that he feels pretty dang bad about it all anyway.

I will tolerate any treatment.

Like I watch CW shows sometimes, and I'll put up with anything.

I'll watch some garbage tv show-

You know, I don't wanna name an actual tv show so let's just make one up; let's call it "Supernatural."

So I'll be watching "Supernatural", I’ll watch the first few episodes and I'll go, "Can I have content that isn’t racist misogynistic or homophobic in some way?"

And they go, "No! And we’re gonna run for fifteen seasons!"

And I go, "Okaaay!"

And then because I’ve lost interest I don’t pay attention to it for like five years.

And then It’s November 5th 2020 and I go, "Any updates?"

And they say "Yeah, we made Castiel go to superhell for being gay while you were gone. Because we hate you. Now take this destiel that isn’t requited, go fetch!"

And I go, "Okaaay!" and I go over to the episode 18 script and go, "Can I have bisexual Dean, please?" and they go "NO!"

And I go, "Okaaay!"

And they go, "Dean’s a straight man, isn’t he?"

And I go, "Noooo," and they go, "SAY IT!" and I go, “Dean’s a straight man."

And then I go over to the supernatural series finale, and I go, "Can I please have a satisfying ending to this fifteen season long show?" and they go "No! In fact, we’re gonna kill Dean with a rusty nail, give Sam a blurry wife and a bad wig, and never even have Castiel show up!"

And I go, "Why are you doing this to me?!"

And they go, "Because we're CW’s Supernatural, and life is a fucking nightmare!"

But with the Latin American dub, they’ll just be like, "Y yo a ti, Cas"

So it’s better

[luxshine]

Smallish update because I’ve seen some missunderstandigns going on.

Ok, so yesterday was a day. 

I am still reeling of a lot of it, which is why I have not been able to do a transcription of the panel (although the ones I’ve reblogged, made by other people, are very accurate and their only “fault” is not being in my head to know why I had some troubles translating Guillermo’s long answers as he spoke too quickly and too passionately so I had to paraphrase rather than translate literally as I did with the shorter answers, and at some points, I admit my short term memory may have failed me)

I am trying to get the panel off the facebook page to put it on my youtube (With permission from Harlecon’s organizer, Harleyquinnarts, whom you should all follow in Instagram and follow Harlecon on facebook because she’s amazing and made this possible by giving us the space to have the panel. BTW, I have heard that there IS a version already on youtube? If it is, please, please, please, put a link back to Harlecon on it, yes? These small cons deserve all our support)

I am ALSO trying to contact Adrian Fogarty, the dubbing director (NOT the translator, as some people are mis-reporting) who is, in the end, the one who has the answers as to where the hell the “Me too” came from.

Which is the missreporting I;ve seen going around, and which I need to adress.

During the panel, Mr. Rojas went from talking about the “Original” Script to the “DUB” Original Script without making it obvious that there was a different. Understand, for MOST actors, when they talk about the Original Script, they’re NOT talking about the Original English Script. They don’t get that. They get the Original TRANSLATED script, which can be then FURTHER changed by them or the director in order to fit cadence, and lip sync. 

And yes, we come again to my old nemesis, lip sync.

So he said that the original script said “Me Too”, as a reply to Cas’s “I love you”, and THEN Alejandro Fogarty, who has a TON of experience adapting on the fly, and is a very respected dubbing director, changed it to “And I you,Cas” because it fit better Dean’s lip movements.

This DOESN’T mean that Fogarty ADDED the Me Too. IT WAS on the Original DUB Script that Guillermo was reading.

He said that Dean didn’t reciprocate Castiel’s words too, but that was AFTER he said he didn’t HEAR what Dean originally said (Which, granted, could be him misremembering as he admitted he had a bad short term memory). This is not to say that he lied when he said Dean didn’t reciprocate, but that that’ts the reason why two different versions of what he said may be running around. This was when I said that then we had to ask Fogarty about the origin of the dub script “Me Too” as he’d probably be the one who knows.

He also said that while it was a surprise, that the writers had been very subtle creating the story between Dean and Castiel, and that it made SENSE. 

There are a few things I could say here about voice actor culture, but I won’t as it could muddy the issue and I want to wait until I finish the transcription.

What he corrected from my previous assumptions was that there was no Warner Bros quality control. They finish dubbing, then send it to air and as far as HE knows, there’s no WB exec checking the files. He admitted he might be wrong on that, but it’s more probable that he’s right. So IF the “Me too” was added, there would be no final check to stop it. HOWEVER, there has been no request to RE-Dub the line, so we can assume that, now that the horse is out of the barn, WB and CW don’t really care that, in Mexico and LataM, Dean Winchester is bisexual, canonically.

Which brings us back to the REAL question: Where did that Me Too came from?

Now, I want to make clear this I DON’T BELIEVE THERE’S A BIG CW CONSPIRACY TO KEEP DEAN STRAIGHT. What I do believe is that, due to a bunch of mismanagement of the series, PR, confusion of what their demography is, old-boys club mentality AND good ol’ network censorship, they may have ended up accidentally creating the ILLUSION of one.

And to be honest, I preffer to know the ACTUAL truth, which could very well be a rogue dub director (Which, if you check my previous posts, was a possibility I raised, that if there HAD been a rogue dub translator, the director HAD to be on it too), or a different audio version sent from the US.

I’ve seen script captures from the Original English Script that were leaked, and there Dean doesn’t reply ANYTHING. Not “Me too”, not “Don’t do this, CAs”. HE just goes 404,File not found, Being Loved by an angel, doesn’t compute.

So we know that DEan’s answer in english was Ad libbed by Jensen. 

However, we also know that Jensen had to re-record some lines. 

So he could’ve ad-libbed again, something different (Either by choice, or by the director’s request. I frankly don’t know nor care. I just assume that there were two different readings and the “wrong” one was sent to the Latam Translator. Wrong here to mean “not the one that aired in the US”)

And the only way we’re going to get closer to which was it, is asking the dub director, which is what I am trying to do. And I do hope that by now, you trust me enough to know that, IF the answer was “Oh, yeah, we decided that it was more logical” , I’ll tell you straight (Or, you know, organize another panel so that you hear it from the horse’s mouth just as I did with Guillermo Rojas)

Also, yes, Guillermo didn’t say the words “I ship Destiel” or “I am a Heller”. However, he DID say that the ending of the arc of Dean and Castiel having a love story was the closing of the series, that Dean reciprocating Cas’s feelings made it make sense and that it was beautiful. So he is a heller, in spirit if not in name.

ETA: I had to fix Adrian Fogarty’s name as someone pointed out I wrote “Alejandro Fogarty” and this proves that I need at least a week of sleep as this show has broken my brain.

[gretahayes]

cw flash update: while I do think it really captures certain core aspects of Flash stories (time travel shenanigans, family, etc.) I think Barry should kill people. In the show he and the team is all like whaaaah we shouldn't kill people its fundamentally wrong and it doesn't make us not better than the villains we fight :(. And I'm like. While I understand that on a technical level, Barry would never. Let the speedster rip someone's heart out.

When Barry is on the verge of crossing that line the others are like: ":( Barry this isn't you :(" yes bitch it is? Let the man commit murder in peace smh.

Barry isn't THAT strung up on excessive violence. If he's about to cross the line, let him. Barry wouldn't kill a man for no good reason. Be good friends and support his murderous endeavors. That's a Batman argument if I've ever seen one. Comics Iris would let him, is all I'm saying. She'd probably do the killing and he'd help her hide the body.

[effable-as-f]

Before I started listening to podcasts I had no standard for gay representation. I can tolerate any treatment. 

 Like, I’ll start watching a show on some garbage network. You know I don’t want to name any actual network so let’s just make up one, let’s call it “The CW”. So I start watching this show on the CW, and I get really invested in this relationship, and I go “Can I have canon Destiel, please?   

 And they go, “NO! They’re gonna pine for ten years!” And I go “Okayyyyy!” And I watch a couple more seasons, and I get to the last season and I go “Any updates?”    

And they go “Yeah, one of them died right before the season finale! Because we HATE you! Now take this confession scene that’ll never get addressed again, go, fetch!”    

And I go “Okayyyyy!” And I go to Tumblr and I’m like “Cas has to come back for the finale, right?”    

And they go “NOOOOO!” and I go “Okayyyyy!” and they go “You’ve been queerbaited by homophobic writers, haven’t you?” and I go “Nooo!” and they go “SAY IT!” and I go “I’ve been queerbaited by homophobic writers!”    

And then I go in hoping for a satisfying finale, which is an oxymoron, and I go, “Can I please have a Destiel reunion?” And they go “NOOO! In fact, Cas is gonna be mentioned once in the entire episode! And he’s never going to appear onscreen again!”   

 And I go “Why are you doing this to me?!” and they go “Because we’re the CW, and life is a fucking nightmare!”    

But with podcasts, they’ll just be like “Want an asexual biromantic protagonist? Want a gay gender-nonconforming elf wizard with a trans sister? Want a gay protagonist who falls in love at first sight in the first episode and gushes about his crush at any given opportunity?”

 … So it’s better.

canon deancas things that were referenced but not shown and/or never explained because the CW are cowards (a working document)(in no particular order):

1. dean giving cas the mixtape???

2. their movie nights where dean shows cas his favorite cowboy movies

3. the 9x06 fanfiction gap

4. that time in s7 when cas shows up on the impala when sam isn’t there, naked and covered in bees??? why. there’s no reason for this. he says he doesn’t want to be involved in the fighting anymore so it’s not like he had important information to update them on. this one keeps me up at night because??? wh Y

5. also in s7 (born again identity) they drive various cars that aren't the impala and dean pulls the trench coat out of the trunk of the car of the week meaning he’s been transferring the coat between cars on the off chance that they’ll find cas (and/or to keep it close hmm)

6. when cas gives claire the grumpy cat in s10 he says he got it at (the) hot topic(al) and dean gives sam an exasperated “don’t ask” look (why did sam even expect dean to have an explanation hMMmm). this suggests that, as he canonically knows so little about hot topic he calls it the wrong name, he probably made dean take him to the mall (because where do you ever see a hot topic outside a mall) to find a gift for claire (and a gift bag and wrap???) and that it was a whole Thing (enough to irritate dean). in this essay i will--

7. cas calling dean and gossping about sam. the scene that made me think of this is 14x15 when sam is irritated that cas told dean about the cardigan and wife but i’m sure it’s happened many, many times

[mathmusicreading]

Misha on the Destiel Heaven Reunion: I’m sure [Cas’] first words were “Hello, Dean” ... the most authentic, loving hug. I could imagine them just, like, grabbing each other and hugging.

Thank you to the people who requested the cameos with “Hello, Dean” and “authentic, loving hug”, and to NorthernSparrow for live tweeting Misha’s panel at DarkLight Con Online 2! I think these cameos I found weren’t Kyalin and gardenercastiel deleted, so here’s misha collins update’s cameos Google Drive folder which I found thanks to ceo of news.

I’m sure a lot of people have said an offscreen “Hello, Dean” from Cas would have been an easy finale fix-it that would have been respectful of COVID-19 restrictions, the CW’s budget, and Misha’s time. Then I remembered that Misha also said Cas and Dean would hug, so this was born. (I love the Supernatural Wiki transcripts; how else is someone who hasn’t watched the show supposed to find an outdoor Cas and Dean hug? Cas’ name is even spelled correctly in the “Alpha and Omega” one!)

[thegeminisage]

what do you think are some of the biggest pieces of evidence for cas being ace? i've watched so much of the show in the past month that it all blurs together, lol, so i can't remember many specific scenes. i do remember "i'm utterly indifferent to sexual orientation" (though that wasn't about his own orientation) and cas' discomfort at idea of sleeping with women at the bordello in 5.03... anything else you can think of? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts!

rubs my hands together okay a List yeah i can do a list

wait actually first i wanna say that the biggest reason is because i’m asexual and i said so 0:) like i know that sounds a joke and it is a little bit but SERIOUSLY it’s just a general Aura or what the fuck ever about people. you know how sometimes a friend group formed in teenage years will one by one realize they’re all queers and they just grouped together organically? ace people are like that too. many of my closest friends have been aspec and i didnt even know that when i met them, THEY didn’t even know. but like if you asked me to list the ten people i was closest to over my life the huge majority would be aspec like me. we find each other In The Wild. so when i say he’s ace because i said so like i’m saying I’m Ace And I Can See Him. He Is Ace Because I Said So. my ace-dar is EXCELLENT

okay anyway with that out of the way here’s your actual list. obviously much of this can be a point in favor of many different readings of cas (and i’m not saying those can’t be true at the same time as ace cas!), but i’m ace and he’s ace and that’s what this post is about so i’m focusing on the ace parts. thank you.

list of ace cas evidence:

in general cas has a lot of trouble connecting with humanity at first which is an ENORMOUS ace mood

when dean cracks in the 4.01 deleted scene “yeah i have that problem with women” (after cas talks about the difficult in finding a vessel that can contain him) cas absolutely does not get that joke. we were having ace cas moments right from the get-go

it’s shown as early as 4.02 that cas doesn’t understand personal space. this is him not getting one single thing about human intimacy works and that he’s overstepping a boundary. it’s not just that he’s an angel (though that’s some of it) he just doesn’t intuitively understand physical stuff like that

that dean/anna kiss in 4.10. LOOK AT HIS FACE. that’s a face that says “i had no idea this is how humans were intimate with each other” and also “do i want to try that?” answer: maybe. dean’s very pretty. but something about it just feels like he’s going “whoa i never even CONSIDERED that” - like that to be sexy with the humans he’s into just didn’t occur to him

i know you said so already but WOW 5.03 brothel scene. THEEE ace cas moment

i’d also like to take a moment to tip my hat to 5.04. almost every aspec will have had a period of frustration and self-loathing where they thought at least once about maybe just having sex they weren’t into as a way to be “fixed” or to prove something. when aspecs are at their lowest and most broken, they are having sex they do not want to have. and when cas is at his lowest and most broken (in 5.04 AND 9.03, thank you), what is he doing? having sex! it’s just Interesting to me that the only times cas fucks is when he’s literally in the absolute worst points in his entire life 

also, i’m getting out of order here, but that thing in 9.03 was absolutely rape. the way he talked about it after was THEEE most comphet bullshit i’ve ever seen. “that was nice.” “she was...sooo hot.” dean winchester can’t fool me and neither can cas thee tiel. 

i know everyone was uncomfortable with the cherub in 5.14 but cas was SUPER uncomfortable. “no one likes it” yeah that’s cause he’s not a big touchy-feely dude 

i actually really hate that porn scene in 6.10, but it is a classic “i don’t get it” moment + a side of “monkey see monkey do” later when he decides to mimic it and kiss meg. she started it - he’s just going “oh yeah i remember watching that on TV - like this, right?” he’s pleased with himself for correctly mastering a form of human interaction, he’s not, like, horny. 

didn’t get the erectile dysfunction joke in 6.19

obviously, godstiel’s utter indifference to sexual orientation

strongly implied to be in a chaste marriage with his “wife” daphne when he was an amesniac

being repeatedly lobotomized in season 8 is its own can of worms. they were trying to make him straight. alas, it cannot be done

meg propositions him in season 8 and it takes him a bit to catch on. i don’t think accepting means he’s not ace, just that he’s interested in stuff humans do. would have been nice for his first time not to be with a psycho reaper who got him to trade his virginity for a pb&j :/

cas seemed REALLY nervous at the prospect of the date in 9.06, almost like it was something he had to steel himself to do - yet another weird part of human life he was resigning himself to, especially after metatron told him “go find a wife and have some babies” when his grace was taken

cas in season 10 is UTTERLY oblivious to hannah’s advances, even the ones that include nudity (and his own nudity at one point lol), and when he finally catches on he lets her down in the most awkward way possible

in season 11 he says he’s gonna take dean’s temperature and doesn’t see how that’s weird lol

he never got to truly speak to dean about his weird “””attraction””” to amara but i like to think he would have been equally confused

in season 12 in the hotel room where an orgy had clearly just taken place dean snickers and picks up the panties but cas is totally oblivious

ALSO completely oblivious when the waitress hits on him in season 12

this is a little bit of a stretch, but despite being named as jack’s “real” father, his relationship with kelly, his ostensible baby mama by proxy, seemed INCREDIBLY platonic to me. like they were such good buds! but he never had any of that romantic chemistry with her - there were no lingering notes or touches or whatever. he just wasn’t interested in that same way. 

exasperated with gabriel and talking about porn stars in season 13 lol

canonically, castiel spent seasons 4-?? falling in love with dean, but he never made a move on him physically - yeah yeah the CW is homophobic but i like to think that most of castiel’s Urges where dean is involved are not in fact of a sexual nature. he wants to be close to him and important to him more than he wants to fuck him. you can long for someone in the ace way without longing for them sexually yk

this is part of why i actually really liked the 15.18 confession - the happiness was in the being, or whatever. he was already WITH dean in almost every way that mattered (i wrote a fic about this). they shared secrets, they shared burdens, they lived together, they fought and worked together, they even raised a fucking kid together! cas was convinced he couldn’t have more than that but also he didn’t really NEED much more than that and thinking about how he had been with dean all along was what made him happy enough to literally die. yeah there’s a version of that scene where the reciprocation was enough to do it but they accidentally hacked it into an ace love scene so i will TAKE it

this concludes my list! i bet it’s a lot longer than u were expecting
