spn is such a funny show, it'll be like:
Naomi tells Cas he has to choose "us, or them" and 'them' is meant to imply Sam and Dean both, but then
she makes Cas kill fake copies of Dean only
Or Metatron will speechify about how Cas is "in love... with humanity"
and then give Cas another lil speech about how it was all "to save Dean Winchester. That was your goal, right? I mean, you draped yourself in the flag of Heaven, but ultimately it was about saving one human, right?"
Ishim shows up and tries to tell Cas how weak he is for befriending Sam and Dean
and then when he wants to "cure" Cas of his human weakness, that weakness is just Dean
AND THEN you'll have things like
Sam will say that Cas is family, that he'd die for him
but he also refers to Cas as an "it" just hanging around in a vessel strong enough to take on Lucifer (in season 11!! It's not like he said that in s4 or something, it was like 8 years after knowing the guy)
Or in "Regarding Dean," Dean will say to Sam "and our best friend's an angel!"
and then when he's by himself in the mirror, he'll say "and Cast--Cas is my best friend."
#just thinking about the various ways the show frames cas's relationship as being a sam-and-dean kinda thing#and then will later emphasize how actually it's dean in particular that motivates cas#supernatural#destiel#castiel#dean winchester#otp: profound bond#(this isn't sam hate btw it's more just#i don't know#it's so interesting how the show first goes the 'we' route meaning sam-dean-cas and then almost always#separately takes dean and cas aside and reiterates the theme of 'we' differently without sam#😩😩)
