So I saw some people last night on my dash (rightly) upset about the fact that while we had all of these Supernatural/Human pairings this season and they were all clear parallels to a Dean/Cas endgame, there was really no “resolution at the end”. There was nothing to tie all those pretty little side parallels together. In other words, the C plot was left hanging at the end of the Season. Man, that’s gotta be infuriating, right? I mean, all this time, all these human/creature crosses, and then nothing? How meaningless.
Or is it? Is it really just left to “bad writing”? Or are we gearing up for something bigger, something that needs to take steps to be shown, because of the nature of things? What’s going on with all these supernatural pairings that keep cropping up in the show?

I misread this as
[AGGRESSIVELY THROWS OSRIC AT THE ENTIRE SPN CAST]
and couldn’t help to think that, well, at least you picked the easiest cast member to hurl across a room.
Bless SPN for this scene. Bless Carver for turning the audience’s own preconceived notions on their head. Bless him for the archery symbolism that ties neatly back to not only the theme of hearts, but also Artemis whom we saw fall in love inappropriately according to the precepts of Olympus. Bless the two plaid-wearing, bearded scruffy men who are stand-ins for Hunters and Dean’s notion of über masculinity who also fall in love, but this time with heaven’s express and noteworthy nudge. Bless this rare (the cupid did say her arrows were being directed less and less frequently) and heaven-mandated event to be one of the last things heaven does before it stops meddling in the affairs of humans. Bless this event for happening in front of Dean and Cas. Bless Cas for his nonchalance and easy acceptance and Dean’s pause of consideration. Bless this neon sign toward Destiel becoming definitively canon.

there are a lot of reasons why this picture is exceptional because misha barefoot with bedhead and yesterday’s clothes is its own category of amazing
but also consider for a moment:
this is exactly what Cas would look like in Dean’s clothes the morning after
and now everything is twice as terrible
