#is also an unparalleled experience that spn fans didn't get

Have i watched a single minute of spn? No

Do i celebrate 5th November Destiel canon? Absolutely i fucking do

Nope, not that turtle anon. Wasn't aware there was already one. Sorry, if there was any confusion.

I absolutely get the whole "staying optimistic while still having a healthy dose of scepticism" approach. That's very much how I tend to go about these things too.

I've been pretty much playing tug of war with spn since the first time it aired.

Because here's the thing: It's absolutely a show I would enjoy. I mean for fucks sake, I've never watched it and I'm attached. The characters absolutely get to me. At this point I could probably recite you all plot points and also tell you which season (more often than I'd probably like to admit) even down to the episode. I could recite lines, I read a word that could be related to the show and immediately think of it, I read/hear a totally unrelated thing and go "that's so [insert spn character here]". So I think it's fair to say, that I very much do have the spn brainworms.

Also having been a depressed, anxious and (didn't know yet) queer teenager on the internet, spn was kinda hard to avoid. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There's just always been different reasons over the years that ultimately made me decide not to actually watch it. Not even necessarily negative reasons. Just stuff.

And hey, I very much get to enjoy it here, with a bunch of added nuances from amazing people, with amazing ideas. :)

Plus there's always fanfics.

I guess I have to tell you this now: You and @regardingjenmish were the first two blogs I followed after I created this blog. Kind of on accident? I mean not really but also yes. I just kept scrolling through your blogs and then accidentally hit follow and basically went: "Eh, might as well."

(And yes, this indeed happend twice)

(Ok so is there 🕷️ anon? If not just file me away under 🕷️ anon. Obviously don't want to confuse anyone. :))

it's so funny because even before i started the show, i kind of just knew all the major plot points/destiel moments because i watched a bunch of vids and read a lot of meta after thee november 5th. normally i don't like spoiling myself but in this case, i already knew how it ended so fuck it hgdhgfd and so i didn't care about knowing all these things before i got to them in the show. truly an unparalleled media experience etc etc.

i gotta say though, as a non-watcher, are you more a fan of AU's or canon compliant fics? and which are your faves? (if you wanna share, that is)
