Cas being in love with Dean is definitely canon. :) I mean, we've all known it, but last night confirmed it with Metatrons' little speech about Cas doing everything not for humanity, not for the Winchesters, but for Dean Winchester alone. But that wasn't just our only little clue that it was intentional, that we were supposed to come to that conclusion. The other thing that confirms this was "The Road So Far." In these season recaps, they always highlight the important points of the season. Yeah there's shots of them just generally being badass and killing stuff, but anything that they deem important enough to be voiced over in the "The Road So Far" is stuff that they want you to remember for the season finale, important things that happened during the season. And you know what line was voiced over in last nights? :) "You just gave up an entire army for one man." Now why would they put that line in the recap? Because they wanted us to really draw the conclusion that Cas is in love with Dean and that "no, this isn't a mistake and you're not reading it wrong, think about this line while watching the episode and if you listen to the characters, what do you get?" Everything for one man. Always for Dean Winchester. Again, why? Just to throw us a bone? Nope. Because it's important. Cas' feelings for Dean, their whole relationship is something that is important. It's a plot point that I think is going to only intensify and really shine in S10 and we had to be reminded of it in the finale, but without overshadowing everything else that's going on. It had to be obvious, but not in your face (which is hard to do, because their love is so epic). At least that's what I took from it. :P If you don't agree, that's totally cool, but this is just what I'm seeing from the episode.
I always thought Supernatural missed the opportunity for making a truly beautiful series ending by not ending everything at the end of Season 5. Dean is possessed by Michael, Sam possessed by Lucifer. Dean breaks out of the hold because he wants to protect Sam, but knows how he would always have to kill him. Dean breaks Sam out of the hold and Dean kills the both of them while holding onto his baby brother and telling him ever6is going to be okay. They save the day with brotherly love and Castiel goes on to spread the Winchester Gospel.
But after Season 5 continued I knew that it would be hard to find a good ending to the show. It's never easy and while I haven't really watched the show in like 3 years I wanted to tune into the last one because I had loved this show for so long.
It wasn't a perfect episode and the amount of Olaf gifs that popped up after Dean was impaled had me rolling.
I'm glad that Sam got to grow old and have a son and live an actual apple pie life. I wish that we had seen whether or not he ended up with Eileen,, because I'm pretty sure she's alive and it just seems like he forgot about her.
I'm glad Dean got to be happy in the end, dying a hunter with Sam nearby, and living in a Heaven with all his loved ones. Driving Baby for how ever long he wants. I wish we had a montage of Dean meeting with everyone in Heaven before setting out on his roadtrip (would have been wonderful just to see the spn family in that context).
As much as I want Dean and Cas to be together forever, I kind of like this ending that Cas gets to be a good angel under Jack. It's kind of beautiful that he went on a journey from this stoic soldier to experience humanity and the gift of falling in love. I do wish we could have seen a reunion between Dean and Cas in Heaven. It wouldn't have even had to be destiel related, but just a friend checking in on another friend now that he is finally at peace (though I wouldn't oppose to more).
I love that Sam and Dean are reunited at the end and I love that we are given this perfect world with which there are no limits to what we can imagine for these characters after death. We were given a blank slate essentially to work with and I for one love and appreciate the gesture.
There I things I wish I had seen in the canon context of the show, but I had fun on the journey nonetheless. Thanks Supernatural for the 15 years of your time and effort!
Something I made while dealing with my own stuff and hoping drawing this would pick me up somehow. Maybe it worked.
FT my cat. His name is Mischief
All I’ve heard about it is that Jared cried, it’s supposed to be worse than Swan Song, and that it will be really depressing. And “They go there.” All I can think is that by the end of the finale Dean has completed the MoC cycle and killed Crowley, Cas, and Sam. Snaps out of it somehow and then kills himself and at the end of the season EVERYONE is dead.... then Season 11 takes place somewhere other than Earth lol
Okay, I know this is stupid, but now I want to know if Peter walks up to Wade dressed as Peter Parker and says "I'm fucking Spiderman" if it gets blocked out too? Or is that okay because Wade will just say "I fucking knew it!" and get all pissed off because he thinks Peter is FUCKING Spiderman?
....
... I now want Peter to befriend Wade as Peter Parker and just accept the strange fact that Wade is friends with Spiderman AND Peter, but Wade legitimately has no idea they're the same person and Pete just rolls with it like nbd, doesn't try to hide it or anything, and when Wade asks about their relationship Pete just explains his inner struggles on being Spiderman and Peter as fake relationship drama.
Like, Johnny Storm walks in on them playing video games as Wade and Peter and Wade makes a comment about Spiderman and Peter being boyfriends and Johnny just looks at Peter like "wtf?" and Pete's just going with it and describing relationship issues with himself that get Wade all worked up.
Well, it's not wrong lol they have such an eclectic family
The Spider-Man/Deadpool series is just about Wade and Peter falling in love while simultaneously adopting as many dangerous and destructive children as they possibly can

the last one is a scene from this fic :D
So I make very few posts, and I try to stay away from things that are hot topics because I dislike conflict, but this idea..... we have all these awesome headless statues hanging around the U.S. right now, Halloween is approaching, and I hate to be wasteful... anyone wanna put pumpkins on these fellows and just have a bunch of potential headless horseman statues instead? They can all be holding one of those sticks with the horse heads on it to ride on
The nice thing about Dean and Cas is that even if they don't interact for long periods of time, their relationship, respect, admiration, and love for each other remains just as strong. (Note: I am talking about time and distance here... not their actions and consequences) Cas is always thinking about Dean and how he can help him. Dean asks about Cas and checks up on him a lot. It's not an "out of sight, out of mind" kind of relationship.
Not being together and talking all the time doesn't mean that the intensity of their relationship is fading in any way. Albeit some people are more needy and have to be around the person they love 24/7 or they wilt, but Cas and Dean - in my opinion- are not those kind of people.
Cas is an angel and he has a sense of duty. He needs to be doing something to help Heaven or to help Dean. A lot of times that means leaving Dean alone, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care about him any less.
Dean himself has a lot on his plate and can't tag along with Cas every time he has to go somewhere. I'm sure he doesn't want to either. He has his own duties to perform. Even with Sammy. Dean isn't with Sam all the time either, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't offer up his life and soul for him at the drop of a hat.
There are some relationships that transcend time and distance. For example: I have a friend who I live 3,000 miles from. We've been best friends for our whole lives. We check in on each other every so often via text, e-mail, messenger... but we're both very busy people and so it doesn't happen that often. I see her maybe once every 2 years now, if I'm lucky once a year... Every time I go back and see her though, it's like nothing changed. We still love each other to pieces and our relationship is exactly the same even with the time, distance, and sparse communication. Now while, that's an example of friendship, romantic love can be the same way. On a sad and morbid note, many people who have lost someone they love, don't cease to love them just because they're gone. Stuff like that doesn't fade. The pain may go away, but the love will always be there.
I believe that Dean and Cas and Dean and Sam have that kind of relationship. That no matter how much time passes, they'll still love each other. Sometimes when they finally are able to see each other though, there are more pressing matters at hand than bonding. Sometimes stuff works out that way. Again, preoccupation with saving the world or stopping evil doesn't mean that feelings are lost, fading, or dying. It just means they're busy. They'll find time for each other and when they do finally get to sit down and interact without immediate concerns, it's usually a wonderful sight. So please don't worry about any lack of interaction between them! :)

IF YOU SHOULD BEG by @xenovillain
I love the story and characterisation so much, very excited to see how this ends
OMG That line!
It's like straight out of a scene in a movie where something bad is going to happen to someone and the person they love that they've been fighting with is begging them to forget about their fight, they'll work it out, just come back to them before something bad happens/ I just need you here right now.
I wonder if that music will reoccur whenever they finally meet up again and then Sam interrupts again and there's that record squealing to a halt noise XD I think I would die laughing.
