Doing a presentation on supernatural for my sociology class 🫶🫶

Sam Winchester vs the killer clown era

Been listening to sounds of someday by radio company (Jensen Ackles band) and I’m literally obsessed with this one and drowning

*SLIGHT SPIDERVERSE SPOILERS*

So hear me out here 😭

In the spiderverse movies it’s basically established that every universe has a spider man, it’s a canon event it’s bound to happen

I’m thinking (even tho I know it’s not possible two completely different subjects) spiderverse x supernatural? 🤔

I just think that would be a funny little idea, the Winchesters who were taught to hunt down everything with a seemingly supernatural presence/ ability and then there’s just this silly little guy swinging around New York City in a silly little costume with his silly little spider abilities, they probably try to figure out what the hell this guy is

But to no avail, like there’s just nothing? No lure in any books, no history of anything like this before, he just kind of appears one day? And Sam and Dean are just kinda stumped? Like they have no clue how to handle this situation, maybe Sam’s just like what if we…talk to him? Like idk he fights crime why not? So they do, even better if it’s like a silly little guy like Peter b Parker, he’s just chill and down for whatever almost

Idk I just think it’s a funny concept 💀😭

This is like one of the longest random post I’ve made sry if it doesn’t make sense 😭

Sam and Dean Winchester would have cried during the Barbie movie

The Winchesters fails as a prequel because I know John and Mary will end up together but I so desperately want them Not To

"Maybe one day when you have kids you'll understand" hate to break it to you ma'am but he will do the exact opposite

jojo says carlos' pronouns are he/him because non-binary wasn't really known in the 70s but danneel and jensen have said that non-binary people have always existed so jojo says that carlos is basically the embodiment of a non-binary human but due to the time period they use he/him pronouns for Carlos!

guys what are you talking about castiel was literally in the movie

LITERALLY!! like we all know the real Dean is off w Sam in the Impala and Jack is in the back seat and they are on a mission to pick up Cas from superhell <33 too bad that James guy found mary and john instead of his family :// hope he’s doing all good. ANYWAY! when will the real supernatural main characters return to television screens! 

guys idk what ur talking abt cos dean wasnt even in the show like they spent all season building to what?! some guy called james hotman? WHO IS THAT? literally dont care about him

another sam slay

say what you want about jared but he ate up that sam role in the winchetsers like its been five years and he picked up that role so effortlessly. real acting was shown in the Winchesters finale. 

Ohhhhh very Chuck Shurely.

Like the Winchesters ind him and at first it’s like it this it? Is this the almighty god? A bored, vain and broken man? How human, how disappointing.

Throughout the series they are just as dissapointed in him as he is in the world maybe it would have just been better if he stayed lost.

Tee hee. Chuck is God. <3 It reads like a retcon rather than a plan, despite the oddness of Chuck-the-prophet's role in things, but it's the missing thread that pulls all the others together very tidily. Love it. They're not so much breaking the fourth wall as giving up on it entirely.

So... when the Winchesters et al find out they've been the protagonists in Chuck's ongoing self-insert fanfic epic (no beta we die like the Winchesters haha lolz), repeatedly killing and dying and bleeding and losing each other for the sake of his art, do they get even? Death of the author indeed. Hallelujah! But not too soon because Rob Benedict, pls thx.

And now I know why the archangels are all so messed up and/or immature, and why the lower angels all seem like lost sheep following each other in frantic circles with the exception of Castiel, who drank a liquor store and got past the abandonment all in one go so he could look for something/someone worth fighting for and believing in.

Supernatural just went all-in for keeps on the theme of neglectful fathers, shrink-wrapping the absentee-father God who's had the angelic panties in a bunch since S4 into a form we're capable of relating to as a simple parent figure. The dad who wasn't there, the dad who got bored and left to suit himself, and watched from afar as his kids self-destructed. Metatron, who's been nothing but a self-serving ass until this ep, just viscerally and vulnerably longing for another moment in the presence of the Light, while most of his siblings didn't even get that much. Retcon that onto Gabriel and Lucifer - yowch! Chuck is the dad with the tacky Best Dad mug, which he gave himself, at his elbow as he writes a permanent, living hell of hurt/comfort/angst for his kids — and plays favourites. Eesh. Chuck makes John Winchester look good in the parenting department.

Which... I mean, speaking as a writer, the simplest counterbalance for that plotline is to show one or more of the protagonists (or even the more sympathetic antagonists) being a good parent, the hard way. Present and loving no matter what. Hmm! The morality of self-serving v. self-sacrifice played out on the family spectrum. Omnia vincit amor. To love another person is to see the face of G*d. Yiss.

[Part 2]

I can't believe Supernatural did this. I love that Supernatural did this. Family therapy for Lucifer and God with Sam and Dean Winchester as facilitators. And with Lucifer wearing their best friend. Could this get any more messed up, or any more beautiful?

All that epic story arc about the angels and their civil wars, about the absentee God and his writer issues and the mess he left behind, and they bring it down to Earth with this intimate, real, honest conversation between an estranged father and a once-favourite son.

We Happy Few (11x22) May 18th, 2016

a big, soft, comfortable, comforting, private hug where they have time to get comfy and close their eyes and start to feel self-conscious but hold on tighter until it passes and feel each other's warmth and safety and they're just Home

adksksknft! But ngl I expected more porn?

I do tend to say it with porn, no? ;) These two have a history of gorgeous, meaningful hugs when it matters though. That and the profound-bond eyesex they seem relentlessly unaware of doing from the moment they meet.

As a fanwriter, I'm at a loss with "Destiel", I have to admit - the sheer weight of their backstory is intimidating. I'd love to use my smut toolkit to wrestle my way to understanding Dean and Cas as characters, as a romantic/sexual pairing, hell, as a phenomenon of modern fandom culture, but I doubt there's much left to add to all the Cas/Dean smut that's been written over the past 15 years. I'm way late to the Supernatural party. I'm so late they're talking "revival"! The stats on AO3 are mind-boggling for this pairing alone.

The hug post got me thinking about their finale smut potential and motivations, though!

Would their post-finale reunion go the smut route right away? Depends how smutty/romantic one's interpretation of their backstory is, I think. If I load a headcanon where they've already been lovers in the past, or wished they were but put it on hold, then yep, they'd be straight in there with the cinematic kiss the second they get enough eye-contact to reassure them that everything's okay between them. Don't come knockin' when Heaven's a-rockin'.

I sort of love that if I take the show at face value they're messier than that, though - that the show didn't give them a real-life-isn't-like-that cosy wrapup, just this lifechanging bond played out over 12 long seasons that even they struggle to categorise and rationalise, and probably couldn't explain on paper if their lives depended on it. They've both worked so hard to find their common ground, to accommodate each other's unique ways of being difficult, broken, and beautiful - but they're both pretty obtuse about the implications. I reckon they at least need a good run-up, and some actual, on-topic conversations in a no-stress environment before tearing each other's heavenly garments asunder, post-finale.

Cas loves Dean, and said so with (what he genuinely thought were) his final words, passionate and uncompromising and pure of intent, but what does monogamous love of a human mean to a fallen angel who's shown little sign of carnality or domesticity in his quest to adapt to humanity's ways and get comfortable with human emotions? He wanted something more than the closeness they had already by season 14/15, so bad you could spot him yearning at 300ft, but what? What exactly would his wish-fulfilment look like? Does he even know himself? What's Cas' #destiel headcanon? I'm open to it being happy and fulfilling human life-parter type sex, naturally, but also to it being... something other? Something so alien to humanity that he's sure Dean can't follow him there?

Dean loves Cas, less and less obliquely as the series progresses, but it's not a love he knows how to deal with. He goes with "brother" because that's the tidiest mental compartment he can find for the intensity of this bond, I think, and because blood family is always his frame of reference for everything that matters most to him. He grows more comfortable with it as Cas becomes easier to talk with, more emotionally articulate and outwardly human, but he also seems increasingly mystified by how to respond to it - something too big to ever get dealt with while they're so busy putting out apocalyptic fires and, you know, dying all the time.

I reckon Dean took Cas' love confession at face value, that it devastated and humbled him, that he wasn't anywhere near ready to hear it said aloud; that hearing it as 'goodbye, I'm dying for you' was one of the cruelest personal blows he's ever taken; that he understood Cas didn't need him to do or say anything in return at that moment, but must regret that he didn't speak his mind sooner; that everything else Cas said to him in those few minutes caused such a profound shift in his understanding of himself that he's got a lot of quiet thinking to do before he's back on an even keel and ready to act decisively about his relationship with anyone else. Dean's typically slow at processing things he can't wrap his head around instantly, things that leave him feeling exposed, and... well... he didn't get much time after that.

I keep warily eyeing that weirdly amorphous and dreamlike Heaven they ended up in, too, with its optional passage of time and sense of... emptiness. Especially having seen how antsy Dean looked about the deal in The Winchesters. Can he even play by Jack's hands-off rules up there?

I'd hate for a belatedly vicious plot punchline to sneak up on the happy couple while they were blissed out and off guard from making the nekky love in a heavenly sunny meadow full of bees or whatever, screwing their way towards happily-ever-after, but that's the way my brain seems to be leaning on the finale's picture of Heaven. My guard is up, my suspicion's aroused, so anything I write to consummate their relationship, set post-finale, would get tangled up in that less attractive puzzle.

I felt the fandom's howling wilderness of pain in 2020 and I don't want to make it WORSE by pitching in now with unnecessarily angsty smutfeels, y'know? I'm all about the character-building angst and hope never to change, but even I think these two deserve an uncomplicated, happy sex life - if for no other reason than cosmic compensation for all they've sacrificed and all the times they got hit, stabbed, or dead - by this point in the story.

i love it when emotionally repressed men go absolutely fucking nuts

SPOILER ALERT kinda - Let me introduce you to the elusive Akrida Queen…the one and only mother of Henry Hart (AKA Kid Danger from Henry Danger lol) As a fan of both shows I was loving every moment she was on tonight’s finale.

We need more Carlos, Latika, Millie, Ada, John & Mary. #SaveTheWinchesters Just think of the fun we could have with a second season!!
