I personally think that the lack of Dean and Cas interactions or mentions in the second part of season 10 have more to do with the Mark of Cain rather than the actors and/or writers. They gave us a bunch of stuff in the beginning with Cas pining for Dean and the shout outs in the musical episode. We have Dean even asking Cas to end him if he gets out of control and Cas just generally being worried about him. And of course the Cas/Collette parallels. Dean’s been a little off this season because of the Mark of Cain and having been a demon at the beginning of the season. He’s struggling with it. The worse he gets, the more he plays it off and tries to subtly distance himself from the people he cares about. That’s why I feel there’s no “chemistry” or “eye-sex” going on between them. Dean’s not doing well. At all. He has WAY more important things going on with him than whether or not he is in love with Cas or Cas is in love with him. When he was feeling decent, we got some of that fluff. But now that he is just going downhill, he can’t be bothered. Personally I feel that if Dean wasn’t behaving this way towards everyone (not just Cas), I would be a little confused when shit hits the fan with him especially if he was showing that lovely chemistry and having a lot of moments with Cas up until that point. That chemistry shows that Dean is feeling normal and okay. The chemistry is muted when he’s not. If Dean was acting normal, the characters and viewers would have no reason to suspect that he is handling this poorly and should the MoC flare up, it would seem forced. Now, they’ve always got problems in their life, so why didn’t that prevent Dean from making goo-goo eyes at Cas during the Apocalypse? Or when Sam was soulless? Or when the leviathans were wreaking havoc? Or when the angels fell? Or when Sam was possessed by an angel? The reason is because during all that time, Dean was sure of his personality. He knew what he was and wasn’t. He had control of himself. Yeah, he might have had nightmares or be guilt tripping about his time in hell or sad about all the death that follows the Winchesters. But he was still Dean. And he was human. Now Dean is dealing with something out of his control, that is forcing him to be a certain way, it’s changing him. He was a DEMON and he tried to KILL SAM. The MoC is trying to make that happen again. He doesn’t trust himself not to cause damage. That’s why he asked Cas to kill him if it got to that point. He’s trying to fight it, but he’s losing. He is not doing well. It’s because of that compromised state of mind that he’s in he isn’t being normal Dean and hence not creating a normal chemistry with Cas. That doesn’t mean that he doesn’t still care about Cas and Sam and Charlie. It just means that right now, that’s not even a concern in his head. He just doesn’t want to hurt anybody even if that means his death or him leaving forever. That’s why I feel that there hasn’t been as much interaction between Cas and Dean in the second half of this season. After becoming human again, Dean felt reasonably well and we got some normal Dean that made everybody happy. Then he’s just kind of faded away because he is basically relapsing. This is just how I see it and why I personally am not discouraged. Would it be nice to see all that Cas and Dean fluff? Absolutely. But when I see it, I want it to be believable and not stand out. I want it to flow naturally and not be placed in there just for the sake of it. Even if it means that there is a point in the story line where they don’t get to interact as much, like right now. The nice thing that the writers’ are doing for us right now is continuing to show that Cas cares about Dean. That Dean is still always on his mind even if Dean can’t right now. That’s the other reason I believe that they aren’t deviating from the Cas and Dean relationship. (It’s also the reason I believe that Cas being canonically in love with Dean will be the first thing to come in their saga, but that’s a theory for another time) For now though, everything in the fandom is just speculation (including my own feelings and theories). Season 10 finale is almost here so lets’ see what they give us! :)
Now that Cas has officially told the Winchesters that he loves them, I want him to just randomly tell them all that individually more often. Like, Sam and Mary would be like “Aw, I love you too Cas” nbd and then Dean just gets flustered and doesn’t know how to respond and Sam and Mary are just like “Dean, don’t you love Cas?” because they knoooooow
I don't know why it took me so long to realize this, but the "*ON" under Spiderman's name on Wade's free pass list, probably says "*ON THE CEILING."
I couldn't decide which one I liked better so now you get both
Wanted to make something sorta with the vibes from my TTHSYS fic. I can't believe how long it's been since I started my IZ AU series
I didn't read Bucky as flirting with Sarah at all. That cheeky smile totally said "I'm going to make your sister like me more than you" and I so desperately now want Bucky to become friends with Sarah and make Sam even more jelly than he already was
😳
Fanart for @bamsara ‘s Galaxy Days! This guy was v fun to draw with his eyes and fuzz
So fun that I kinda animated a super short bit from the fic, but it’s under the cut bc holy shit blood and gore warning. it’s also kinda spoilery for ch. 6
@asilverthorne
Inasa out there asking the real questions.
Here is what I think... Supernatural has had 8 amazing seasons and 3 of them didn't even have Castiel in them!
I think that no matter what, if the spoilers are true or not, we're still going to have a good season. They haven't disappointed us yet imo and I don't think they will.
There is no point in worrying about what MAY happen in the season about destiel as we don't have anything confirmed about them. If something happens that is displeasing, then we can have our fandom freak out, but until then I think we should just keep enjoying the anticipation for a wonderful new season of Supernatural!
.... Even if they're true, just imagine all the long distance pining Dean and Cas will have :) We are shippers and we'll make the best of it!
Just stay positive!
Again, just my opinion on the spoilers.
I personally think it's important for Cas to explore with this chick. We know that he's mentioned that he is indifferent to sexual orientation as an angel, but now as a human I think that in order for him to develop as a character he does need to explore this sexuality in all manners.
One issue is if the writers had him sleep only with Dean then he would be perceived by a lot of the general audience as gay (which they already think of him as the "gay angel", but that's besides the point), but it's not true based off of what he has said about sexual orientation. He is indifferent to it and that needs to be reiterated especially to those who don't keep track of everything Cas says the way we do. :)
Another issue is that Cas is newly human and he hasn't seen Dean while he's been completely human before. To say that as soon as Cas sees Dean as human he wants to suddenly jump his bones is a little too much new info to dish out. Has he shown interest in sex before? Yes, but having a boner and kissing someone because you saw how it was done on TV is different than actually experiencing the act of sex for yourself actively participating in it.
The writers have to introduce the idea of Cas as a new sexual being and then introduce the idea of him with Dean, which means that Cas and Dean aren't a thing in the first part of the equation. They can't be for the story of them getting together to be worthy of their story up until now. So for now we get part 1 where Cas finally has sex, explores that route.
Then he can make more connections based off of how he has felt. Like "Oh... this is how I felt when I did this with that girl... Oh.... I feel this way about Dean... Ooooooooooooh"
Otherwise he'd be confused about what he is feeling. Remember this is all new to him and what he feels for Dean he may not fully get the implications of unless he experiences something similar to someone else and can compare and contrast them.
...... and to be frankly honest if he ended up sleeping with Dean first he would never get the chance to explore that other side to him ( =P ), he would forever be curious as to what would that be like? His curiosity could lead to infidelity and a road I know the fandom would throw a fit over.
Anyways, just my personal thoughts on the topic. There's more to it, but that's just the basics as I have to go to work now. Cas being with a girl first isn't going to be the end of Destiel, I promise. But it could in fact even be a jump shoot to it :) Stay positive everyone!
