So … this is probably going to sound corny as hell, but I was just on Twitter and someone’s post got me thinking.

I truly don’t know how anyone watched Supernatural without seeing that, or not wanting, Sam and Dean to be the heart and soul of the show. They ARE, of course.

Literally, Dean is the "heart." He’s the throbbing, open wound of emotion on the show. Our emotions aren’t always good or something we should let dictate our decisions. They aren’t even always truthful, but they are what drives us a lot of the time. He loves like crazy, for better or worse. He embodies bravery in a fight and fear of being alone. Dean starts the show as heartbroken (for his family, especially Sam) and lonely, and he ends it feeling completed.

When Dean is the most not-Dean, it’s when he is a Demon. He still technically has a soul, but he’s lost his humanity (or heart).

Meanwhile, Sam is the "soul." He’s the ethereal or cerebral, the essential spark that gives a body life (there is no show if there is no Sam, and there is no Dean if there is no Sam). It’s where the conscience and compassion come from, and where faith dwells. Sam starts the show as the soul that is tainted and needs redemption and, by the end, he gets it. Sam is hope and the yearning for more than the base (hunter) life.

Sorry, this just popped into my head when I was thinking of Sam (🎶he wants more than this provincial life🎶) … and I can’t find a soul gif with Sam, so here he is soulless.

When Sam is the most not-Sam, it’s when he’s soulless. His lack of compassion and care make him almost alien.

This even makes sense for why Sam can live on without Dean, but Dean can’t live without Sam. The soul can exist without the body (depending on your belief system). This doesn’t mean Sam is whole without Dean, just that he can exist without him. But Dean, being the heart, needs a spark to keep on beating. The heart can beat, or go through the motions, with artificial assistance when someone is brain dead (or has lost the spark of life), but they aren’t truly alive anymore. No one is home.

Okay. I need to go to bed. This is a big oversimplification, and metaphors got pretty messy here, but I just needed to get my thoughts out there. Thanks to anyone who bothered to read my rambles! 🫂

One more thing before I go to bed … The Impala is the body. The show is complete because it has Sam, Dean and Baby: the soul, the heart and the body.

Okay, this is the last, last thing because I can’t help but write it … A human body doesn’t need wings. So, the feathered one is, in fact, not essential for the show to be complete.

Amelia's "dead" husband coming back and disrupting her relationship with Sam, paralleling Sam and Dean continuously coming back from the dead and the other immediately uprooting their life and leaving their romantic partner to be with their brother...

Love how this outtro contains both the biggest slap in the face the show has to offer as well as arguably my favourite shot of all outtros, full stop.

Ngl, in 5x20 I enjoyed when Angel smacked Spike's legs off the table, snatched his game boy out of his hands, and ordered him to go do the task Angel set him to. He totally gave off Dom energy. Which my longtime followers know I'm fond of.

Ahem …

Sam Winchester isn’t selfish. He literally gave up 15+ years of his life to go back to hunting, a way of life he wanted to escape since childhood, to be with his brother because Dean couldn’t stop. (Yes, I know he originally picked it back up with the intention to avenge Jess, but Dean had already lured him back into the life and he stayed for him.) He loves Dean, yes, more than anyone else in the world, but this is still a huge sacrifice, too. Even when he claims to love it or be fine with it, he always stipulates that it’s because it what his family (a.k.a. Dean) does, and that he wouldn’t do it without his brother.

In conclusion, Sam is not selfish but loves his brother more than his own freedom, safety, and life.

Goodnight.

Miles telling Peter "we've gotta be stronger than that! this time, you have to save yourself!"

Pete replying "he can't", Miles telling him that "he will"

Are you in any other fandoms? Not asking you to draw all the fandoms you're in or anything! Just wanna know if you have any personality other than "heeheehoohoo southpark" ?

It is endlessly fascinating to me how some women decide to rewatch Gilmore Girls as an adult and the first thing they say when they talk about how cringey it is now is how badly the main characters treat men.

idk besties, I am also a woman who grew up loving Gilmore Girls and when I rewatch it, the first things I personally notice is how utterly fatphobic and homophobic the entire show is.

But uh, sure. I guess we can be upset about how Lorelai and Rory treated men ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
