Okay yeah I am really really tired of this. So I'm just going to say outright that what spn did with 15.18, with Cas's confession, that was a whole lot of people at spn showing their love and support. Writers, Jensen and Misha, the director, and anyone else who cared--which was a good number of people who worked at spn. It was the show full on validating fan lens and the deliberate crafted work of writers that had to queer code Destiel for years due to network censorship.

Crew members were in tears watching that Dean and Cas scene get filmed.

No, Cas's love for Dean wasn't last minute added.

No, it didn't come out of nowhere.

It was a 12 season arc payoff.

It was many seasons, who knows how many years, of writers weaving it into the text.

Who even knows when the deliberation to try to push it into text decision was made. I usually think Carver era, but then Ben Edlund said some things and...who knows.

No, spn was not gaslighting and mocking Destiel shippers.

The original plan for the finale at the time 15.18 was filmed had Cas be there for the ending. They made 15.18 in good faith believing they'd be able to follow through on Destiel, as much as they could get away with it.

15.18 was filmed in March 2020 and the pandemic production shutdown hit a few days into filming 15.19. Production shutdown gave some higher ups too much time to think, and too much of an opening and an excuse to strip back 15.20.

Without the network support the most spn could do on Destiel anway was thread the needle to get as much into the text as they could, even if they couldn't make it open. But they tried to make it anyway within those parameters. They deserve credit for that and they didn't know how 15.20 was going to be stripped back when they filmed 15.18.

So tired of seeing malice assigned to the effort of the creatives who did it. Who told that story within a restrictive system.

Cas's confession wasn't even queer coded. That was the moment it switched to loud and blatant. Misha even said he was astonished they were allowed to film it at all. Lack of network support and PR erasure set in afterwards.

No, it wasn't fanservice. It was integral to the plot!!!! The major giant stakes save the world endgame plot!!!!!!!!!!!!

15.18 was respectful.

15.18 was showing the love!!!!

i got a tattoo of robin this week and now i talk to it like this

#i need a robin tattoo now so i can do this #dc

[bamboozled-distress]

based on that one bert and ernie behind the scenes photo of jim henson & co. :')

i drew this for fun and then i started thinking about how robin could be a two-person puppet dick's parents created and puppeteered together and dick inherits it when they die and he ends up passing it along to subsequent siblings to use together when he creates his own nightwing one and then i got emotional about it + the inherent quality of family-as-legacy that the robin puppet represents 🥺🥺 they have to share the role. robin means not being alone!!

bonus lol:

#JASON LMAO #he would #dc #the batfam!!!!

a lot of fandom seems to gloss over the fact that cas is like, funny? like has a dry sense of humor. often it gets pigeonholed into naivete or cluelessness, which in the earlier seasons is sometimes genuine, but take, for example:

“But come on, dried dung can only be stacked so high.”

“I’m not ashamed to say that my big brother knocked me into next week.”

“It’s a shortened version of my name.”

“I’m an angel, you ass.”

“I missed television.”

“The bird represents God. And coyote is man, endlessly chasing the divine, yet never able to catch him. It’s…it’s hilarious.”

“[What the hell?] Guess again.”

“Uh, you could try….insouciant, maybe.”

“You should’ve seen Luke.”

“[Do I look like I’m joking?] …you never look like you’re joking.”

“Just so you understand….why I can’t help.”

“[How was Jerusalem?] Arid.”

“[What was riding in a car like?] Uh…slow.”

“[I’m dead?] Condolences.”

“Don’t ask stupid questions.”

“[How’d you get here??] I took a bus.”

“[‘Hello? Hello??’] Uh…that is still the term.”

“It seems this is going to require talking to people.”

“Less dumb, less ass.”

“I got this. I don’t got this.”

“[to a cat] Hey, I’m not through with you.”

cas’ humor is weird and offbeat and esoteric because….he is? cas is weird and offbeat and esoteric. luv it.
