I need everyone to know I had a dream last night about a Hannibal presentation and this was the whole presentation as it appeared in my dream

Shoutout to Severance for taking two interesting women and dumbing their characters down to motivating a man :)

I'm so serious when I say Supernatural needs to conduct The Bechdel Test except it follows these steps:

Sam and Cas are featured

They talk to each other

They talk about something OTHER THAN DEAN

I am doing a Cas only episodes rewatch right now and I swear the only time these two have ever had a scene where they DONT talk about Dean is in First Born with the guinea pig thing and then some of the extracting grace thing.

I only started thinking about this two days ago and I'm on s11 in my rewatch now so I've probably missed other scenes. But so far, since I was at the end of s9 and through s10 to halfway through s11, I have been keeping tabs on this and THEY ONLY TALK ABOUT DEAN. It so fucking FUNNY actually beause they're literally like two friends in a group of three where whenever the one person who holds the group together leaves, they're both just there like: ummm, so... what do we talk about?? And the only thing they have in common is DEAN.

The Bechdel Test

So there is this test called the Bechdel Test. I’m not going to go full on into it but I thought I’d share abt it. The Bechdel test is a test on women’s representation in film. The rest includes three questions:

Are there more than two female characters?

Do they speak to eachother?

Do they talk about anything other than a man?

Worst part about being afab & trans was realizing my internal monologue doesn’t pass the bechdel test
