Here’s a parallel I noticed that highlights the difference between Cas relationship with Dean and Cas relationship with Sam pretty well. Episodes 10x22 vs 14x15

When MOC Dean is beating up Cas, Cas doesn’t hit back even once. The most he does is try to bear hug him from behind to calm him down. But not a single punch.

When Sam is Justin Smith, Cas says he won’t hurt him, but he actually does pick him up and slam him into the ground. It’s not a big deal, obviously he knows Sam can take it, but it’s something he wouldn’t even do with Dean.

Before the actual fighting, Cas tells dean, “I’m your friend… I’ll be the one that watches you murder the world.” And then when MOC Dean is on top of Cas holding the angel blade to him, Cas holds onto the wrist Dean has on his tie and the only thing he says is, “please”. He doesn’t even try to grab the hand holding the knife. And then Dean stops.

On the other hand, when Sam is on top of Cas trying to stab him, Cas uses an entirely different approach. He’s forcibly holding back Sam’s arm that’s holding the angel blade. He tells him he understands that he wants to be happy, but that if he does this he fails the people they lost. He says “if you do this you fail Jack. Sam, you fail Dean.” And that makes Sam stop.

The difference that’s so stark is that Cas has to appeal to Sam through talking about Dean. But Cas can appeal to Dean through his own relationship to him. He doesn’t need to bring up what it will do to Sam or anyone else, because their own relationship is powerful enough and he knows it.

Cas: Dean and I do share a more profound bond.

*turns to Dean and shrugs*

Cas: I wasn't going to mention it

So what you're saying is self-driving cars are actually driven by ghosts?

Cas goes in to cut off Famine's finger.

*two seconds later*

Dean: This is taking too long.

*rushes in*

I just realized something.

The first time Chuck/God says "This isn't supposed to happen" i.e. the first time things go off-plan is when Dean convinces Cas to choose the right side. Or rather, just to choose. (Dean and Cas kidnap Chuck and take him to the motel where Lilith has Sam.)

It's Cas's free will that breaks the mould, that shatters the plan.

And Cas's will is freed because of Dean.

Translation: Without Dean and Cas's connection, without Destiel, Supernatural (and team free will) wouldn't be possible.

Dean and Sam's confused faces when Crowley just handed the colt over to them were so fucking hilarious. They looked confused right up until Crowley told them to kill Lucifer and disappeared.

God, I love that chaotic demon.

You know why I adored Crowley from the first moment he first appeared, despite all his many, many faults?

Because his intro scene has him personally closing a deal with a men just because he knew the guy was an old white homophobe, and wanted to make him kiss a guy to get what he wants. 🤣🤣 That's the kind of "evil" I can get behind

when you realize cas never got a chance to see dean mourn him. to see what his death did to dean. how it broke him completely. SHATTERED. he never saw dean's utter despair. anger. complete hopelessness. he only ever saw dean's joy when he came back. and so cas figured that his death simply didn't affect dean all that much. that dean could be happy with Cas gone. that Dean could go on. Move on. cas never understood that this joy, this hope, this smile on dean's face after he came back was ONLY BECAUSE HE CAME BACK. CAME BACK TO DEAN.

Cas was the REASON.

I can't believe I totally forgot about a character as powerful as Jesse. Then again, so did the show writers. 🤷🏻‍♀️

He could've helped a lot in the final season, I think. I bet him and Jack together could've taken on God.

Dean screaming at Sam: now you might be able to forget about that BUT I CAN'T!!!!!!!! is absolutely insane actually. because what was the reason other than to show how Dean's grief over Cas is DIFFERENT from Sam's???? what was the reason other than to highlight that Sam might be able to forget about it - because he lost a friend. While Dean CAN'T forget about it because he lost the love of his li -- [gunshots]

"You mean you're going to feed your friends into a meat grinder? Cas too?" - Dean to Future Dean.

Translation: Cas is more than a friend.

Right? Right?

Cas making Dean laugh by trying to solve a sex worker's daddy issues is one of my all time favorite scenes.
