Still valid

The Supernatural Couch -Why Destiel is the only way Dean gets a happy ending.

So as most SPN fans know, Dean has low self-esteem, self-destructive tendencies, attachment issues and well that’s just the beginning…

We see him dating women, staring at women and loving women, which is part of his core personality. Though sometimes it’s too much, he’s a little overly-focused on the female form. The Destiel haters use this as proof, cries of ‘oh he’s so hetero’ fill the internet, but I’m here to explain why they’re wrong. Firstly, this is classic overcompensation. Dean loves women there is no doubt about that, not at all but maybe it’s a little too much? 

Women trigger the 'patriarch’ tendencies within Dean, the protective instincts. That’s the image he grew up with, the one John portrayed and that is what pulls Dean in. 

Dean was never protected as a child and it’s something of a reoccurring theme. Seen both early in the dynamic between Sam and Dean in Season 1 and as recently as Season 12 in Dean’s well know altercation with Mary. “You’re not a child” she scolds, “I never was,” he replies. He’s not angry, he’s resigned and sad. He then ‘first names’ her, Mary not Mom. Burn. He’s distancing himself. 

John’s fixation on his wife became Dean’s fixation on women. There was no room for Dean to be anything else. No room to move away from this over hetero, dominant male. John didn’t leave space for anything else. Dean turned into his father in a million ways because it was the only way to get John’s approval and while we love John, he did a number on his eldest.

Exhibit 1: Dean blames 'the job’ for every relationship that breaks down. It’s his escape, a way of laying fault on others and a way of avoiding looking too closely at his issues. We see him choose it over and over again, he just can’t walk away no matter how much he objects to the contrary that he wants a normal life. Even when he leaves the hunter life temporarily, even when he’s 'happy’ and loved, the Job wins. This is because 'the Job’ is a large part of how Dean defines himself. He has to hunt, it’s who he is. 

Dean has a type, there are two main categories. Category A: One night stands, aka, anyone.  Category B: The Long-term/Love interest. Please note these are two separate yet linked, sometimes mixed categories. One doesn’t always mean the other. They are not mutually exclusive. 

The first part of the second category includes ‘The maternal woman’ aka Lisa, Laya and Carmen. They represent his mother, post-retirement from hunting. Then we have the ‘Strong unattainable woman’ aka Anna, Amara and Cassie, who represent Mary as a hunter/strong woman. While Amara isn’t a love interest per se she’s included because they were close and it raised issues for Dean. Also note, Dean met Cassie before confirmation of Mary 'the hunter’. Dean chose Cassy as she was a strong independent woman which was a side of Mary that John portrayed.

These aspects, the different sides of Mary have always caused conflict within Dean. The respect for his mother conflicts with his sometimes questionable respect for women. That’s not to say he doesn’t respect women per se, it just gets a little blurry when he’s playing the field. The latter is perpetuated by their 'on the road’ lifestyle. Visiting bars etc. Dean became exposed to bars quite young and became immersed in the 'women as objects’ mentality. These sides of him are clashing constantly.

The only women that seem to work out in Dean’s life are the hunters, yet he never seems to end up with one. Jo is a prime example. She’s young, pretty; a hunter and Ellen wouldn’t have put up too much of a fuss. Yet, he never goes there. Why?…because she’s a woman.  As strong as she is, she still hits his radar as someone to be protected.

 All of the other female hunters are always friends. The only one he’s super close too is Charlie and she’s off the list because she’s queer herself. So by that definition, she’s safe. She is also a very similar personality. The flirting, the inner geek, the loyalty, Charlie is basically Dean as a girl. Just to add, her family died and she’s moved around a lot, so they bond on a whole other level.

Dean has also convinced himself he can’t have love. That he’s not worthy, unable to or not stable enough and everyone he loves dies.

So my theory is that Dean needs someone who understands him, who he can see parts of himself in. He needs someone that has commonality but is not exactly him, so someone without all of his issues or fewer of them.

Cue Castiel. Firstly, he’s an angel and right off the bat he’s better than most humans, for one, he’s hard to kill. He’s a guy and as such, he skip’s Dean’s ‘they must be protected at all costs, even emotionally from me’ category. Cas was moved into the ‘family, friend, he can deal with all this crap category’ early on. 

Castiel has an innocence that hits all of Dean’s buttons, like all of them. Dean loves kids, he’s great with them. They hit all of his protective maternal instincts. He’s an amazing teacher; we see this throughout the show. Cas hits his radar as innocent, and we see Dean struggle with it throughout the growth of their relationship. Cas is an angel, he’s this all-powerful being but taking Porn as an example, it’s a foreign concept. Pop culture is a mystery. Flirting, relationships…nope, he’s just innocent. So that’s one way in which Cas shreds Deans walls. Those barriers he erected to keep people out, Cas squeezes through with his innocence. Kids always get past Dean’s walls but Adults have to prove themselves. Cas doesn’t because he hits Dean’s radar all wonky. 

Moving away from that you have 'Warrior 'Cas. The angel is strong, powerful and kicks ass. This means that Dean doesn’t have to be his protector in the traditional way as he is with Sam. Dean can be protective but is not Cas’ protector. Cas is a warrior and he can protect himself. However, Dean also likes being needed, valued and Cas always makes him feel that way. How I hear you cry? Well, my friends, I will tell you. Cas makes mistakes, as we know. He is still learning about all of this human stuff and when he screws up he requires forgiveness. Cue Dean. Dean gets to play the forgiving friend and family member. Dean, he loves that role because John was so unforgiving towards him. Mistakes weren’t tolerated because they got people killed.

Cas is honest, which Dean respects and Cas is brutal with it in most instances.  Also, most of the time when he’s not, it’s to protect Dean. Dean, secretly, likes being protected. He does, we see this throughout the show. Sam tries to keep Dean safe, as does Cas and its one of the things he forgives the quickest. John never really protected Dean but he did Sam and that’s where some resentment used to flare up. We see this in flashbacks. Deep down Dean doesn’t want the role his father forced on him, he just wants someone to take care of him. Just as a side note, Dean is maternal, highlighted in his 'nesting’ tendencies. Dean likes taking care of people when it’s superficial, not life-threatening. I want to specify, Dean likes to cook, he likes to have a home, and he is the mother hen. It’s one thing to have maternal instincts, it’s entirely another to be responsible for everyone’s lives. 

 Cas makes Dean feel valued and special. Dean didn’t have that as a kid and it’s so important. He craves attention, someone to recognise all of his quirks and achievements. Cas does this on many occasions. We see it in the very well known 'we have a more profound bond’ scene, for example. There are several moments where Cas addresses Deans self-worth. One is in the first season; in one of the first moments, they’re together. ’ What’s the matter? You don’t think you deserve to be saved? ' 

Cas also tells Dean that he loves him, that he’s his favourite and again, Dean needs this. He needs to be someone’s first choice because in his heart he knows he’s never been Sam’s. Dean has all the feels because it’s not from someone he’s related to, or who may be obligated to love him like Sam or Bobby. Cas finds him, protects him over and over because he wants to. Even when Dean fights him or pushes him away, Cas returns. It’s relentless and the only human who comes close is Sam yet even he fails (season 7). Dean’s face when he realises Sam just stopped, that my friends is devastation. We also see this in season 12 when Sam chooses Mary and the Men of letters, Dean is sad, disappointed but resigned because he knows he’s not Sam’s first choice or even Mary’s. 

Theoretically, Cas can live forever. When he does die, he comes back from the dead. This will ultimately take pressure from Dean to be protective even in a family and friend way. It also removes some of the fear Dean has surrounding losing people. 

Cas can see all of Dean, his flaws, his vulnerabilities and loves him anyway. They can also be equals because Cas is smart, strong, tactical and determined; all traits that Dean respects. This won’t happen in any romantic dynamic that Dean has with a human woman. They just can’t protect themselves enough to satisfy his inner Demons, there will always be the fear they’ll leave or reject him. It will never work for Dean with a civilian or with a woman. It just won’t, there are too many patterns, cycles that he’s stuck in and it’d take a lifetime of therapy to even make a dent. Also, with Mary back, it’s actually worse because that messes with his whole worldview.

In a quick reference to the whole Crowley/Dean dynamic, that’s similar. Crowley is a powerhouse but Dean still sees him as a monster, regardless of how close they get. Crowley didn’t get through the walls, sorry Hell boy. 

To summarise, Dean isn’t gay (not exactly).

He’s attracted to Cas, not because of his physical parts, the Vessel, but because of who and what Cas is. As an Angel with no gender, this would make him Pansexual, or Bi depending on your definition. 

Cas is perfect. He’s strong, funny, devoted and above all he adores Dean. 

And that is why bitches, Destiel will be Canon.

Chapter 4- Shifting frames

https://archiveofourown.org/works/26422363/chapters/64370440 

WIP/ 22k words with more to come / Were’s not typical ABO

Dean is an Alpha, dominant, strong and famous. His career has made him the darling of the world, everyone adores him. That includes Sam, who manages his career, an unusual thing considering Sam is human which in this world means he's the lowest of the low, only above animals, barley. Dean's life is keeping Sam safe, even from his own mother and keeping his secrets, well, secret. Sam's life consists of dating a notorious red head and keeping it and his mysterious life a secret. They keep secrets to keep each other safe. There is one secret, however, that won't be locked away, a dark haired, blue eyed, fairy named Castiel. Dean has tried to forget that childhood day in Ireland, he has tried to bury the memory but Cas visits his dreams and sometimes feels so real... was he real? That world, the magic, it can't be real can it? That sense of dread, like someone is waiting in the shadows... that's all in his mind... isn't it? There are things going on in the world that have been building for aeons, a battle for the mortal and Fae realms is coming and Dean is the key. Life is about to get far more magical and complicated than either of them could ever imagine.
