I’m just going to leave this here just because
CAS IS DRIVING CAS IS DRIVING CAS IS DRIVING
DEAN’S BOYTOY IS DRIVING
sam fucking knows.
SAM. FUCKING. KNOWS.
This breaks my heart in so many ways
Of course Sam fucking knows.
As much as we fucking know…
other things I liked about the episode:
- the fact that dean almost killed gadreel. keyword being almost. he was able to stop himself. even with the mark and the power it holds, he was still able to stop. that says something about him, no doubt.
- it’s SO FUCKING NICE to see sammy worried about dean for once. okay, he’s been worried about dean in the past, yes, but he looks downright scared this time. it’s been so long since I’ve seen him like this. like…really fucking nervous about dean and the effects the mark is having on him.
~~wibbles with excitement~~
I’m just a soldier.
Bitch, please!
Oh yeah, that was totally Robbie reaching out to us. Hell, that was him acknowledging that subtext is part of what gives a story meaning. Especially following that up with asking if it’s the writers that do it, or us. He actually, by putting subtext last and leading that into discussing the possibility of both the writer and the consumer assigning meaning, gave subtext the most amount of weight. (The acting reinforced that too.)
He legitimized a large portion of what we do in fandom and I could just kiss him for it.
Okay okay, so we’re sick of subtext and want it to be text. But I will take this, because it not only tells me subtext is just as important and valid as characters, plot and text, it tells me that they all work together and subtext has a place, and can always become text.
Actually. I knew all of that. What it really tells me is that so does Robbie.
“How are you, Dean?”
#they’re both so tired but all it takes is the other’s voice to bring a smile to their faces #THEY’RE BOTH SO LONELY BUT JUST KNOWING THE OTHER IS OUT THERE IS ENOUGH TO GIVE THEM STRENGTH (x)
#Dean looks so so knackered #just utterly bone weary #like the kind of tired that makes you sick and shaky #but he manages a smile #one smile in the whole freaking episode #and it’s here (x)
