what are your favourite tropes in spn fic?

oooooo!! okay okay i’m bad at like. defining a trope so some of these may not technically fit the bill but here’s what i’ve got (and some of these aren’t specific to just spn fic):

—“there was only one bed” a fandom staple, but i find it works especially well for spn because it’s so natural to the canon lol

—newly human cas. love getting to see him navigate it and see how the author writes it

—switching pov. not sure if this is exactly a “trope” but i find i always LOVE fics that utilize it

—sam having to break it to dean that no, not everyone DOES in fact find cas attractive. this is super specific, but i’ve seen it in a few fics now and i always love it because dean’s reaction is always so fucking funny to me

—the “eileen and cas and/or eileen and dean are besties” trope. love it every time, always eat it up

—cas has a garden. i don’t care if this is “played out” at this point or whatever he deserves it

—✨lakehouse✨ (or dean and cas getting a house together in general)

—fake couple shenanigans in casefics

that’s all i can think of for now 👁
