Not that he couldn't save his mother??? Not that he couldn't save his dad??? Not that he couldn't save his brother from Hell???? Not that he couldn't save the lives of ALL their family and friends???? Not even that he died on that ridiculous, insulting, absurd rusty rebar??? Dean's biggest regret according to Jensen Ross Ackles is not being able to save Cas????!!!!
I can't find it but to the person who posted that Sam and Dean should've fought in 15x19 while they grieved Eileen and Castiel respectively, I am kissing you on both cheeks respectfully or giving you a high five if that's not your style.
The idea of Sam saying, "I lost Eileen!" and Dean rebuts with, "well I lost Cas!" and Sam going, "that's not the same thing!" and Dean landing the killing blow, "of course it's not. At least you got to tell Eileen you loved her back!" all of that exploding in the stillness of the bunker, of the world without life, is fucking beautiful cinematic astounding magnificent glorious I am living for it.
how are they gonna adequately prepare whatever child they cast for nico di angelo. it has got to be impossible for someone that young to give informed consent about playing the saddest wettest loser in all of human history. like hey kid i know youre sprightly and all of ten, but we need you to be in all five stages of grief at all times. remember, your mother was killed in fascist italy, youre eighty years old, and now youre in love with the guy who killed your sister. say this next line like you know what it's like to be an ear of corn.
Mr Fell does a partner reveal (finally!)
(Part 2 of this)
He kept Cas' bloody trenchcoat and carried it around from car to car.
He stayed a year in Purgatory even though the way back home, back to his baby brother (!!!), was right there. And he prayed to Cas, EVERY NIGHT.
He was on his knees, REFUSING TO FIGHT BACK, telling Cas HE NEEDED HIM and breaking Cas' brainwashing.
He gave Cas a MIXTAPE with songs of his favourite band which his parents FELL IN LOVE TO.
He fell to his knees. He just couldn't make himself leave Cas' body. He was completely SHATTERED.
He then carried Cas' body to the cabin. And prepared it for the hunter's funeral. ALONE.
And he begged GOD himself to bring Cas back.
And he fell to his knees in the land of monsters and prayed to Cas for his forgiveness.
And every time Cas came back to him, Dean found his hope and will to live again.
And I guess I'm writing all that because if Cas had been in a female vessel no one would utter a single doubt that this was a ROMANCE. And why is that ??? Because Dean and Cas' story was written as a LOVE STORY.
Crowley can’t come back to Soho because with Aziraphale gone they will know he’s single now and half of Soho will be trying their chances and nobody can blame them
It might be an unpopular view but I don't want Aziraphale and Crowley's relationship to have been part of the ineffable plan. I don't want their love for each other to have been just another chess piece on God's board, destined, since their creation to fall in love. They deserve better than that.
If anything, I want their love to be in spite of the plan. For, just like their sense of right and wrong, their emotional growth together to be hard fought and all their own. I love the idea that it flies in the face of what is expected from an angel and a demon.
I don't want them to love each other because they are supposed to. That would be so diminutive. I want Aziraphale to love Crowley because he's Crowley and Crowley to love Aziraphale because he's Aziraphale. Divine plans and prophecies be damned. Being part of the ineffable plan would erase the agency and beauty from it. Their love is theirs.
Imagine spending all your energy being cool and mysterious 24/7.
What an idiot have I mentioned I love him?
Idea came from a cool post @nouverx made about Alastor’s possible sleeping habits. 💕
I love the idea that God/Metatron separated Angels who were falling in love with each other by making one from each couple fall because that would mean Satan is hilarious.
Satan: Hey, hey, God.
God: Satan, I literally just kicked you out, what do you want…?
Satan: Who are you sending to Eden?
God: Aziraphale, why?
Satan: Nothing.
>>
God: Satan! What the fuck! Why is Crowley there!
Satan: He’s my favourite so of course I gave him this mission!
God: And it had nothing to do with Aziraphale and Crowley being separated by me and you being a bastard?
Satan: Nahhhh!
>>
God: They keep on screwing up my plans! Stop sending Crowley wherever Aziraphale is!
Satan: But it is so funny.
God: Satan!!!
>>
God: You know they’ve made an arrangement.
Satan: Yep.
God: Do you realise how powerful they are together?
Satan: Yep.
God: You are enjoying this way too much.
Satan: Yep.
