“Now that one. Now that I suspect would hurt something awful.”
Can we talk about how powerful and incredible that line is?
”Now that one.”
Already Cain’s acknowledging that “that one” is a big one. That Castiel is an important and predominant figure in Dean’s life. That one. A whole separate sentence just to put emphasis on his point.
”Now that I suspect would hurt something awful.”
What Cain suspect is that Dean loves Cas the way he loved Colette. He suspects it because it’s not shown by Dean and Cas the same way it was for him and Colette, not yet anyway. The best we got was Dean including Cas when he said “the people who love me.” We don’t know what Cain knows exactly, what he’s heard, what he’s seen, but he knows enough to know that Cas is special. And he thinks he knows Dean, he talks like he knows Dean’s life and Dean’s heart. And he wants to prove it to him with every word. “Even though you never said it, I suspect that you love him.” That’s what he’s saying. “And killing the person you love, it hurts something awful. I know that.“ And he’s also saying ”I know you, maybe even better than you do. I see you and him, and I see myself in you.“
Killing Cas, Cain knows, will be a special kind of pain for Dean because he remembers how it felt to kill Colette. Cain truly believes that Cas is Dean’s Colette, that he’s his redemption, his savior, his lover, and that it will hurt something awful when he has to face his fate with him.
But I do think he’s underestimating the nature and power of the bond between Dean and Cas. And I just can’t wait to see how it unfolds.
”I suspect.” The bolded is so accurate. What a perfectly written phrase. God damn.
“No, never.”Dean Winchester being told that he’s destined to kill his brother, over and over again.
lmao i thought cain was gonna say dean’s ultimate weakness was cas
Cas’ weakness is he’s in love… with humanity
Dean’s ultimate weakness is… courage
Guess we have a new nickname for Cas now
So…
Dean = tinman, Cas = lion, Sam = scarecrow?
This is why we were taught maths in school.

Dean’s in trouble.
Dean Winchester is pure good and nobody will take that away from me. Cain was going to kill him. He had the Blade to Dean’s throat, and yet, when Dean had the upper hand, when he could easily kill Cain, he says, “Tell me I don’t have to do this. Tell me you can stop.” Because Dean has always believed in other people. Stronger than anything, is his belief that people can do good, even if it’s not immediately apparent.
Oh Dean, I just hope one day you can believe in yourself too.
Then you kill the angel Castiel. And that, I would suspect, — that would hurt something awful.
DEAN PATTED CASTIEL’S SHOULDER
Sam being the utter best, as usual (10x14)
