ANNEMARIE: Yeah. I thought so, too. Seeing you take on Matt, I was like, “wow”" no one's ever done that for me before. But then you kept going and going, and I realized whatever is going on with you has nothing to do with my “honor” at all.
(10x01)
The name means, "favored grace, rebellious lover." Annemarie is a window into Dean wanting to (yet again) run away from everything, from Sam, from Crowley, from work. From his chronic feelings of rejection. From feeling things, from living in the real world with obligations and responsibilities.
Annemarie calls Dean on beating the person who was wronging her (Matt), a la how Dean called Cas out re:taking on Raphael. Because, like Godstiel, Demon Dean kept going beyond defending honor, beyond protectorship.
Demon Dean is a treatise to the loss of free will through disinhibition, yes, but it's also Dean acting out everything that was ever done to him. There's pent-up rage and rejection tied up with all of it.
It's the specter of "I did all of it for you!" which only sounds romantic, only sounds honorable...but Cas kept going, slaughtered the angels en masse. Because it was really about Cas's beef with his brother Raphael and his family and his issues. Just like in SPNWIN Mary called out John on using Mary as an excuse for her issues.
Anyhoo, we stan Annemarie. She is "human Dean."
She walked out of there thinking she deserved that.
#annemarie#demon dean stuff#dean is very soft of her despite everything that's happened to him#john cas parallels#complex john#complex cas#complex dean#It's no wonder he beats Cas in a similar manner to how Cas beat him.#like claire dean finds an outlet in becoming a drunken unthinking errand boy#gets tied up as an exploited prostituted soldier and will not be kowtowed#anyhoo we stan annemarie#demon dean into others as was done to him
