Idk but there’s something about having Dean “everyone’s burdens are my burdens, but I will burden no one as I deserve to carry this weight on my own, I can ask for nothing at all” Winchester say:

that’s “I love you” in Dean language, baby

I know we (myself included) talk about how Dean only gave Cas the mixtape because he figured Cas wouldn't know the implications, and we further expand on that as a place where Cas didn't see Dean's half assed love confessions, so how could he possibly reciprocate

But if I think about it. Like. Really. Think about it. Cas had an entire info dump of pop culture. That wasn't just movies, or even if it was just movies that would include mixtape gifts which were HEAVILY featured in movies.

Maybe it's just canon's refusal of continuity, or maybe. Just maybe.

Cas receives a mixtape. There are songs on it. Dean's handwriting. And Cas knows, peripheral knowledge, the time it takes to do such a thing. Even more since tapes aren't exactly easy to find. Did he record over a tape he already had? Did he buy one, watch it travel from some far off country to a little P.O box?

What does it matter? Not when Dean could never mean it like that. Not when Cas is certain this is just Dean's way of trying to

Well it's even worse. Because Cas tries returning it at first, doesn't he? Oh this is Dean's Mixtape, he says. This belongs to Dean and it is therefore Precious and must be Protected this is Dean's Thing

And then Dean says, "it's a gift," and he says "you keep those." And this isn't Dean's Mixtape it is your Mixtape. Your Mixtape from Dean and of Dean.

#all im saying is theres a reason it wasnt Cas mourning Dean #because then they would not have been able to seperate from the mixtape like they suddenly did #where the mixtape would have been an altsr #the last piece of dean in the waking world #etc etc anyway #i just woke up #spn #destiel #castiel #dean winchester #supernatural #spn meta #spn post

even if you're not a supernatural fan, if you've been on tumblr long enough you are, like, culturally. like cultural christianity in america except it's the cw's supernatural. you may never have watched an episode or set foot inside the tag but your regular life shuts down on their holidays and all of your world news is delivered through that point of view. something to think about

#while i'm making equivalences we could look at the comparable impacts of the bible on the western literary canon and supernatural on ao3 #edited to add: y'all i have never seen supernatural either that's the post #yes my brain has been rotted by this fandom but the call is coming from outside the house #that tumblr lyfe #containment breach #spn

people trying to insist a fandom is tiny when it /only/ has a few thousand works on ao3 meanwhile my current fandom is a sixteen book series and has several hundred fewer works than goncharov, a movie that, and i cannot stress this enough, doesn’t even exist

#measuring the size of fandoms based on their goncharov index #this has been a useless text post you may now resume your normal programming #rote has a goncharov index of 0.63 #for perspective ofmd has an index of 26.5 #spn's is 360.8 #the cosmere is 2.26 for a fantasy book comparison #i am very normal #post

Y’all, the Archive admins are made up of VOLUNTEERS. And they have been working for 12-13 HOURS STRAIGHT.

I better not hear any complaints when donation period comes around. OR ELSE.

cosplay by @woahchriswoah on Twitter

EDIT: How do we show appreciation to the volunteers? For me reading these deep dives on OTW issues u guys apparently it's been said multiple times that one of their objective statements is to have paid staff for ao3 and there's a surplus of donations they haven't used up or the other community solutions that needs to address. For those more financially literate feel free to analyze, snipe me or add to the discussion etc. linked here by deepa. They’re cool and these yearly analysis they did aint no joke.
