Can The Rational Fans of SPN Please
STAND UP AND TAKE BACK OUR FANDOM!!!
Okay I'm going to say right up front to anyone who follows me if you're offended by this post, I'm sorry but I can't stand what the obnoxious part of this fandom has done. This is a long ass rant too so I'm sorry and you can ignore it all you want.
No I'm not just singling out Destiel, Hellers, Wincest, JA, JP or MC fans because newsflash every aspect of those fandoms has so many assholes that they all make it miserable for the rest of us.
I'm not into Destiel or Wincest...I don't ship JA & JP...I don't ship JA & MC or JP & MC. I'm not a J2 or Tinhat...I may not care for DA or GP as actresses but I don't think they're 'beards' either and dear god in heaven if Jensen truly was gay and needed a beard I like to think he has better taste than what he married but sadly these ships are the loudest and make so much of the fandom unpleasant.
Do I think these three men are friends in real life...I don't really know and I don't really care because it doesn't change my enjoyment of the show either way.
I'm sorry if you're so needy for acceptance or whatever your issue is that you need a TV CHARACTER to show your representation for your sexual orientation but that is your problem it's not the creator of the show, the actor who portrays the character or the network problem...it's yours.
Here's a quick recap of what Supernatural is about since this seems to continue to get lost in the shuffle. It is a show about two heterosexual brothers who have an unhealthy co-dependency on each other because of a tragedy when one was six months old and one was four years old and father who put way too much responsibility on that four year old to protect his baby brother. It's a show about hunting the monsters that caused the tragedy.
So in a nutshell DEAN WINCHESTER was never written as gay...bi...or any other thing you need the character to be for whatever your personal reasons are.
There are plenty of shows with characters that are gay, bi and lord knows what else you're into...pretty much anything goes now a days and there's enough shit shown on cable to cover it.
If you want to watch two men together watch shows like Roswell, NM or Teen Wolf (I know there are others...I just can't think of them and they don't matter to me so I'm not looking them up).
Also can people take a fucking chill pill...Jared and Jensen responding to that question about Castiel's confession wasn't homophobic...seriously this is the biggest problem in our society. Nobody can accept anyone else's thoughts or opinions if they don't mesh with their own and claims the other person must be a bigot.
See this is why I've been bitching since the 80s when suddenly every child began 'making the team' and 'getting a trophy' or when they were playing they didn't keep score because they didn't want the other children on the opposite to feel bad.
It's so unrealistic and this is why we have adults now who can't fucking accept not getting their own way and have hissy fits about every preconceive slight against them.
Newsflash actors don't owe you a damn thing other than to entertain you. They aren't responsible to 'represent' you unless they choose so on a personal level.
And yes I'm sorry I do agree MC is a huge part of this issue because he has played to that side of the fandom for his own personal reasons (mostly to make money and I will admit to being Anti-Misha) but again seriously people who 'brag' about the Cameo he did for them and 'stated' Destiel was cannon in said Cameos.
OMG...you fucking paid the man to say it. He's an actor and he's reading some lines you sent him with your payment. You could send him a request to say he saw a leprechaun doing the Electric Slide down a rainbow...just because he says what you pay him to say doesn't make it real.
How sad is your life that you need any actor or actress to 'speak' to you via Cameo to justify anything in your life. I'm sorry I adore Alona Tal as an actress but I wouldn't pay her $1.00 to say a single word to me on that site because it's not real...it's all smoke and mirrors. It's not meaningful in any way, shape or form.
I don't care truthfully...I get actors are supplementing their income with this thing but that is all it is for them and any who claim otherwise is full of shit. It's another revenue stream for them and so what. I don't really have a problem with it but I do have a problem when you have fans who can't tell the difference and actors who encourage it.
Also can people stop with their idiotic 'conspiracy' theories while we're at it. Like Sigmund Fraud said, 'sometimes a cigar is just a cigar' and a flannel shirt is just a freaking flannel shirt. Seriously if you people put half those thoughts into things that really matter than trying to find 'hidden meanings' in the color of a shirt, the way somebody held their coffee cup in a scene or any of the other ridiculous 'observation' that come across my feed because honestly I don't even think I can add enough filters to stop this crap from hitting my feed that would be lovely.
To recap, I love the actual show...the one we watched for 15 seasons...not anyone's interpretation. I'm actually a fan of Jared and Jenson as actors. I also like a good chunk of the other actors who were on the show too (minus Misha, Kim, Chad and a few others).
Ok my rant is over...I know it's not going to make a difference other than my need to blow off steam because I have to trudge through so much crap on my feed.

So I saw a bunch of Human AU Sanders Sides and thought I could make my own version
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Backstories under the cut for anyone who’s interested
(Tw warnings such as mentions of abuse, homophobia and car accidents but it’s angst with a happy ending don’t worry)
-Long post-
-Patton:
Toddler to child: Parents love me and I love them! Lots of friends in kindergarten! Met Logan one day! He’s so smart!
Grade school: More friends! Logan’s opening up! Everything’s perfect!
Highschool: My parents are arguing more and I’m tired Meeting Roman and Remus! Roman’s so cool! Meeting Virgil! Virgil needs a hug! I feel sad and stressed sometimes and I don’t think I want to worry anyone with it.- Virgil’s with us now yay!
College: My best buds are here! I got into an accident halfway through my studies Virgil please don’t feel responsible. It’s not your fault. I’m so sorry Logan I should have understood your situation better. Roman please get mad I deserve your anger and I feel awful and empty but I shouldn’t show it because some people have it worse than I do I know it why do I feel this way? I’m fine honestly this is fine everything’s fine I’m just the problem -
Adulthood: So. I’m not the problem. I just need to work on my attitude and my flaws. I love my friends and family so much because they let me know that expressing my feelings is ok! My parents are fine now! I’m getting professional help! I work in an animal care center with Virgil! Roman is successful and pursuing his dreams! Met this guy named Dean and he works with Logan in the bookstore next to our center! He’s fun but he might need to stop lying so much, but other than that I’m happy with where I am now!
-Virgil:
Toddler to child: Parents love me and I love them. Bullies can go suck it. I feel bad that my parents always spend their time comforting me but they’re my whole world and I feel safe with them.
Grade school: Bullies are getting worse. Dad’s dead. Mom is stressed and busy so I don’t want to trouble her further. She still spends time with me for some reason. I don’t think I deserve friends. MCR is great. I met Dean and Remus. They’re. Interesting. I hate Roman.
High school: Oh my god everything is stressful and oppressive and everyone is scared of me. That’s good. Maybe. Met Patton, Logan and Roman. They’re only somewhat scared? Hm. Dean and Remus are getting into even more trouble than usual and pulling me into them. Maybe they aren’t good for me with how they’ve been acting lately. I’ll go be with Patton. - Maybe they don’t really accept me they’re just waiting to kick me out like everyone else why would they even like me-
College: Mom I love you so much I swear I’ll get a good job and make this college money worth it you’ll see. And things are surprisingly less stressful? I really like my friends? Patton why the hell did you save me from that car. Logan you have some explaining to do. Roman you shut the fuck up. - Everything is my fault I should have never said anything why am I always like this everyone was right about me- 
 Adulthood: Mom!! You can now retire!! Roommates with Patton, Logan and Roman now and I love being with them so much. And. Dean and Remus are still around. Well then. Whatever. I work a nice job at an animal care center with Patton and I have my friends and I’m learning to be more open and things are going well for now. Not bad for a life.
-Logan:
Toddler to child: Parents go to work most of the time and I see them every other weekend. Who cares about everyone else in kindergarten I have my books and Crofters. Oh hello Patton.
Grade school: I’m smarter than everyone else and I know it. Patton is a wonderful companion. I’m doing well for my age. 
High school: Virgil and Roman are interesting. Remus needs to chill. Virgil no let me lay some facts down for you because you are valid you hear me. Oh! Oh my gosh! I met this amazing student and he makes me feel special and happy! I think I love him! - It hurts but that’s fine- 
College: I’m coming for those degrees! Patton needs to stop asking me to leave my boyfriend. He doesn’t understand how important this man is to me! I can stand a little pain! Wait what happened to Patton. Virgil? Roman? Ok. Wait. Shit. I’m an idiot. I can’t believe it took me this long to figure out - I’m such an idiot it doesn’t matter how knowledgeable I am I’m still a gullible moron when it comes to relationships and everything my ex has ever done and said to me is all my fault because I fell for his manipulations-
Adulthood: Ok. I trust my therapist and my friends when they say it’s not my fault and that it’s alright. What I felt with my ex wasn’t love and I’m not a moron for falling for him. I can always start over. Like with the bookstore I now own with my receptionist Dean. Apparently he knows Virgil huh. They frequently bicker whenever Dean goes to their animal care center to buy snake feed so that’s interesting. My parents have retired and are now trying to make up for lost time with me? I appreciate it I suppose. Now I live with my companions and contact my family and things are alright.
-Roman:
Toddler to child: Parents love me and I love them! They buy me anything I want! They support my dreams! But Remus keeps bullying me and I’m not sure how to feel about him. He’s still my brother
Grade school: I have so many friends! Extra-curricular activities because I’m really talented! Remus has new friends to cause trouble with oh boy. More people to bully me the better for him ugh. Virgil especially creeps me out. I’m getting a little concerned as to how my parents are treating Remus but I’m sure he’s fine 
High school: Ok. So. Apparently telling my parents that I like guys is a bad idea. - That’s going to scar on my back for sure- They treat me completely differently from when I was a kid? And I met Patton and Logan and I think I might be a tad spoiled by my family. Also Virgil’s here but he’s getting more and more ok. I’ll hang out with him now. - I’m ungrateful and a disgrace and I’m not as creative as I ever thought I was- 
College: Welp. I’m moving out. I wish Remus the best of luck because I think he’s coming too. My parents officially suck as much as Logan’s current boyfriend. He needs to dump him. Wait I’m a YouTuber now! Yay! - I’m getting more and more stressed and overwhelmed from debt and I fear rejection from my fans and friends the moment I say something out of line and the moment I run out of good ideas for them- Oh shit Patton what happened!! Logan what did you do!! Virgil you shut the fuck up!! Remus you’re not helping!! - I could have prevented this why didn’t I realize this earlier am I that self absorbed-
Adulthood: Yes I’m a full time YouTuber and actor and singer now!! Patton, Logan and Virgil live with me now and they even work close together! Remus is now a comic book artist and novel author, hope he doesn’t traumatize people too much. Logan’s receptionist Dean sure is a character.  I still fear rejection- but I know things will be good for now!
-Deceit:
Toddler to child: Where are my parents. Why is the orphanage so small and why do people look at me weird when I talk. I’m never getting adopted.
Grade school: Well, I’m adopted now I guess. No way in hell am I telling them everything that happens daily in my life. Why do my new parents think my bedroom door needs to be removed. They took my little garden snake because it wasn’t a ‘normal’ pet? Hm. Why hello there Virgil and Remus. Hello Roman. 
High school: That’s it. I’m getting piercings, I’m getting a huge tattoo, I’m kissing snakes. Screw my parents. I don’t need to let anyone know anything about me. My opinion doesn’t matter anyways and everything about me is going to be bad no matter what so why bother So they fear us, Virgil? Good. Wait. Where are you going?
College: I’m moving out officially. Remus is in a different college. -Don’t miss him at all. I shall play along to society’s whims for now and get a degree and never use it. Got rid of the tracker under my car. I don’t think I’ll ever contact my parents again.
Adulthood: I think I’m doing rather well as a citizen. Remus is my new apartment mate oh god. But he is now a comic book artist and novel author so at least he has a job. Perks of working in a bookstore with Logan. That nerd’s one of Virgil’s new friends? And emo boy now works in the animal care center next to us? Whatever. I’ll leave them be unless I need some new snake feed. Things are peaceful now for me at least.
-Remus:
Toddler to child: I want my parents to look me in the eye and tell them they care more than just throwing fancy stuff into my arms dangit. Whatever I’ll just take it out on Roman and the kids in the playground.
Grade school: -If you can’t say anything nice don’t open your ugly mouth ever at all- So I’m disturbed? So my thoughts aren’t normal? Fine! Not like I can control what comes into my head! Let me bully Roman some more with my new buds Virgil and Dean! - freaking star child has everything I hate him so much what will it take for my parents to have their attention on me I’ve caused so much trouble in school why won’t they care-
High school: Roman what the hell happened?? I was planning your murder but now I’m not sure how to feel?? Damn you?? Uh?? We’ll move out?? And where the hell is Virgil going again?? Dean?? He’s leaving us? Alright. That’s it. That’s it - my grades and reputation are shit and my parents always assume the worst of me anyways so I’ll just sleep around with a bunch of guys every other week for quick cash and drag my family’s name through the mud and have fun because I don’t hate myself completely but my ideas are bad and I’m bad and- 
College: Fuck you mom and dad! Roman and I are moving out!! I’m gonna become a comic artist and write terrifying stories that’ll make Satan cry!! - Ugh Dean’s in another college dammit I miss him- Roman what is it this time someone get run over or something? What happened with that nerd Logan?  Is Virgil alright- What the fuck happened? - the star child is crying why are you crying why am I crying why do I feel like this I don’t care I shouldn’t care I hate you I hate me-
Adulthood: My ideas are selling! I’m a comic book artist and a novel author! Dean is my new apartment buddy! My brother is still some fancy theater geek but who cares! And the store Dean works at sells my books! And Virgil’s in the animal care center next door! I met his new friends officially and they’re boring lol. I really like where my life’s heading!

Now that I’ve had time to sit with all of this, my feelings are.... complicated.
The thing is... I was finished. I was done. I watched seasons 11-14 out of respect for my past, my history, my time, my life. I was watching season 15 out of respect for the show. To see it out to the end, to give it the opportunity and respect to be finished. But I was already done. 
And then they did one of the three (3) things that could bring me back. 
And I feel so... manipulated? 
I kinda feel like Buffy in season 6 talking about coming back from heaven. “I was finished, complete. And I was happy. But I was torn out of there, ripped out... by my friends.” 
Because I was happy. I was happy in that I had made peace. I knew that I loved the original seasons 1-5 arc, that my favorite season was 7, that season 8 was when I started to really not enjoy myself, that season 9 is when I lost all ability to enjoy the show, that I only watched season 10 for the 200th and the nostalgia presented in that episode was fun, but it carried me for two or three weeks and then.... I let go. I had made peace with never getting that back. I was never going to watch this show and have fun again, unless I was rewatching 1-7, and that was okay. I didn’t need to enjoy it. I didn’t need anything. The writers were terrible and I knew that but it was okay. I didn’t have to trust them or have faith in them or generally give a shit because they were bad writers phoning it in for a pay check and that’s fine... If you can, you can I guess. I mean it’s bullshit but like I was okay. 
But now.... Now I care again. Now I need and want something from them. Now I’m worried about the fact that I don’t trust them and I think they’re all shitty writers phoning it in for a paycheck because now I care about what happens. 
And I’m pissed. 
Because out of those three things, they chose the ONE that I resent the most. 
Those three things are (1) They kill Sam. This is clearly my favorite, and if they were gonna do one I wish they’d done this especially if it was at Dean’s hands. He’d never have a happy ending after killing Sam, but I would. (2) They kill Dean. This would have been a cut and dry “let’s go kill someone” charge. I would have had my appropriate moment of outrage and disgust. I’d be seeing Sam-stans and Cas-stans write their long metas about how “it’s actually a perfect ending for Dean” and see destiel wannabes write their mourning fics like it was cute and be justified in every spec of anger I’ve ever felt. 
But they chose (3) Destiel goes canon. I get no satisfaction from this... But I do get my sense of nostalgia played upon. I get used for views with nothing in return. Well... Maybe that’s not accurate, I get something, but it’s not... 
I stopped shipping destiel 2 seasons before I finished watching. Season 8 was the last time I shipped it in any serious fashion. I sat through the wild and incredible queerbaiting that was Jeremy Carver’s run of the show.... and honestly for what?! I was here in the hiatus between seasons 7 and 8, leading up to what we, the fandom, called “season gr8″ which it was only named because of queerbaiting. And I fell for it. I drank the koolaid every single week in season 8. I wrote metas and posts, my fb memories are filled with posts insisting that “this would be the week.” 
“It’s not queerbaiting if they make it canon,” I’d say. “It’s a slow burn, a long build. A will-they-won’t-they.” I felt like my fellow fans who were getting increasingly more aggressive with the cast and crew had just “lost faith.” that if they saw the big picture, that Dean and Cas were an epic love story that didn’t need immediate payoff, they could enjoy all the little moments we were getting without demanding more. 
By the time I left the show, I no longer expected they’d make it canon... but more importantly, neither did I want them to. By that time, Dean had been put through the ringer being the emotional support for every character, the punching bag, the background to everyone else’s stories because no other actor could pull the emotion Jensen could. Dean had everything he had despite the other characters’ stories and emotions. He was seen by the fandom and most of the writing staff as a filler, an extension. He was one half of a relationship - romantic or not - not his own person. He was “the dumb one” and characterized in really stupid ways. You can see it as recently as 15x16 when a writer who has written one other episode of the show and clearly never actually watched the show especially the flashback episodes. Dean was a caricature, not a character. And Cas... Cas was written with increasing amounts of fanservice too. He went from a powerful being trying to learn to balance his sense of angelic responsibility with love of the Earth to being a whiny crybaby who was generally helpless to circumstance. He was written in such a way where he both leaned on Dean to give him purpose and validation while also completely ignoring everything about Dean that made Dean Dean. 
As the seasons have gone on, this has gotten more apparent. I think what happened with Mary and Dean kicking Cas out the bunker earlier this season (which was also written by Robert Berens btw and if it’s true he wrote the confession scene first in the season - he wrote this scene after that one) is a perfect example. Dean’s criticism there is that Cas doesn’t trust him. When shit is hitting the fan, Cas expects Dean to react in the worst possible way he could, so he refrains for telling Dean vital information and asking for help while he looks for a solution by himself so Dean never has to know there’s even a problem. Then something goes wrong and Cas is always left there saying he’s sorry, that he shouldn’t have done that... But he never seems to learn, or trust Dean enough to do something different next time. And that time, the lack of trust killed Dean’s mom. The narrative and the fandom both treated Dean as irrational and overly emotional - the bad guy - in that situation. Dean shouldn’t have done that.
But like what the fuck should he have done??? I’d have killed him. Or cut him out for good... like for good for good. How toxic is it to have someone in your life who repeatedly ruins your life by not trusting you with a problem that could be dealt with collectively, but not alone? 
And we’re going to what... retcon all of that? By bringing destiel into this, all the reasons I haven’t shipped it and I’ve considered Cas to be one of the most insidious abusers in this show are what? What am I supposed to do with them? 
It’s no fucking wonder the script says Dean can’t reciprocate! Because how could he? How can they really justify Dean expressing his frustration at being manipulated and lied to for 11 years at the beginning of the season and expressing undying romantic love at the end of the season? 
But this isn’t about narrative sense. It’s about an ending. The whole season is about endings... and writings... and god and death to the author... The metas flying around about “god” and “the writers” are all spot on... And so, it doesn’t matter. The message is the story is what we make it, not what they do. And therefore, they call upon destiel as the greatest example of the fandom finding a story within the story that wasn’t being told. 
Except that’s not true. Because it has been being told, just not with any intention of payoff. It’s been queerbaited and intentionally so. “It’s not queerbaiting if they make it canon” is a lie. It is still queerbaiting if they never intended to make it canon! And it’s not okay. 
But here I am, two episodes to go and then that’s it. There are no other opportunities for them to make canon honor that unspoken promise to the viewers. This is it. And endings do matter. Despite the message of the season being generally that endings aren’t important. That the story, the push and pull, the free will of the characters to run away with the story and bring the writers and audience to new places, the interaction between audience and story and the life they run away with, that those are the important parts of stories and storytelling... But that just isn’t true. It’s a romantic notion that endings are just silly things we tack on our stories that confine us, that the real stories are within us... but we consume these stories for the payoff of the ending. An unsatisfactory ending can completely ruin a work; just ask HIMYM. 
So then this is my last chance... My last chance to feel the release of payoff of a relationship I was intentionally inspired to care about without an intention of payoff. This is my last chance of vindication for all that emotional time and energy spent. 
So I’m hopeful and I’m transported back to 2012 and 2013 when I cared. When I believed. When every week felt like a possibility. When it felt like it could really happen. And most importantly, when I wanted it to. Because I do want it to now. I have actively not wanted it to for 6 years, but now is my last chance and it very well might happen so now... I want it.. 
And the way they did it... With giving Cas his moment, but leaving it open for interpretation... IT’S SO CALLBACK QUEERBAIT. AND callback toxic Cas. Cas lays this on Dean and then yeets off? And tells Dean that it’s because Cas loves him that he’s going? Every single part of Dean’s emotional history and trauma makes that evil, but Cas does it to him? And I’m hoping he’s not mad for the sake of the payoff of the relationship?!?!?!??!?! 
Are you fucking kidding me?
And then also I wanna circle back to the queerbait of it all. Misha acknowledged today that there’s some room for interpretation here. And I don’t know how that gets resolved in the final two episodes, if it does... BUT THAT’S THE FUCKING POINT!!! I will be watching live, as it airs, for the first time in 7 years, one week before I intended mind you, because I’m being baited with the promise and hope of explicit payoff that doesn’t leave room for interpretation???? And that’s not queerbaiting??? 
The whole thing is ridiculous and manipulative and just generally awful, but I’m eating it up because I don’t really have the luxury of another choice. Because hoping for payoff is the best option I’ve got. 
I hope I get to justify my past self and see all of that payoff and feel that vindication for the part of me that loved destiel, but I consider destiel to be the number 1 thing that ruined the show for me. So it will be a hollow victory, for sure. And that’s if there’s even a victory, which isn’t a guarantee. 
I just feel so used right now.

Okay, so I wasn’t sure if I was going to say anything about this, but I have to, for my own sanity. Excuse me for my rambling (especially about Castiel) and repeating myself, which I probably will do in this post.
Truth is I only got into Supernatural a little over a year ago. I just kept avoiding it over the years. I think when it was in it’s 7th or 8th season, I thought to myself “oh this should be ending soon. I’ll just wait til its over and watch it then” That did not happen. Jump to last year when I heard about the Scoobynatural episode. I love Scooby so I had to watch. And I loved it. And I really loved Sam and Dean. But I also couldn’t stop thinking about the guy in the trench coat with the deep voice named Castiel. Did very little research to find out he’s an angel. That’s all I wanted to know. Went to netflix and started watching the show from the beginning. By the time I got midway thru season 3 I was hooked. I started buying the dvds in bunches. Watching as much as a I could a week. When I got to season 4 I was Cass on the cover of the boxset and said “that’s him! That’s the angel! He’s in the season!” I actually didn’t know he would show up right in the beginning of the season but when Dean was at that gas station and gas started shattering I thought. That’s him isn’t it? That’s Castiel. Misha’s actual entrance on the show is the best in history. I do love Sam and Dean but I’m not going to lie and pretend like Castiel isn’t my favorite. Because he is. I adore that awkward angel. He is the reason I happily kept watching and brought all the dvds because I knew Misha was still working on the show. He is the reason I will buy season 15. I started shipping Destiel in season 5 but when I re-watched the series (Yes I watched it twice in less than a year. One over a period of several months the other over a few weeks before the show came back after hiatus.) I saw moments in season 4 that i missed the first time around.
So yes this finale makes me cry and not in a good way. although there are a few saving graces.
Let’s begin.
First let me start by saying I do not in any way blame the actors. Especially Jensen. He said he thought the ending was bad and had to be talked into it. Dean/Jensen deserved better. I blame the writers and producers and The CW
Second, repeat after me:
Cass is in heaven with Dean
Cass is in heaven with Dean
Cass is in heaven with Dean
Cass is in heaven with Dean
Now speaking of Castiel, who I mostly want to talk about before addressing the rest of this mess. Castiel/Misha deserved better. There really is no reason Misha couldn’t be in the final episode unless there was something on his end. Although seeing that he recently went to California to shoot a something for Amazon and took West to the Winchester House. He can definitely travel. But if there was some reason on his end, then okay, fine then. However that doesn’t excuse the way the handled his character in these last two episodes.
Yes in 15x19 Dean demands Chuck bring Cass back. Dean remembers Cass’s words when Chuck calls him the ultimate killer. Yes, Dean runs to the door when he thinks Cass has just called him. Instead in was Lucifer. What a slap in the face to the fans and an insult to Misha after that beautiful confession of love.
But the end of the episode. Jack becomes God and no one says “What about Cass?”
Now 15x20. Sam brings up Castiel and Dean is just like “move on“. No, That is not Dean. No matter what Dean cared about Castiel, to the point that being without him in the past led him to depression. i understand he doesn’t want Castiel’s sacrifice to be in vein. But come on. There’s living on and being happy and then there’s acting like the guy didn’t matter. Again, no. That is not Dean. Not after all the development those two have had. I know Dean wasn’t always perfect when it came to Cass but he did care. What happened to “We lost everything. Now you’re going to bring him back” What happened to the purgatory apology and admitting his anger issues. And so much more.
Again Castiel is in heaven. Jack got him out of The Empty. But they could of made it more clear. ( I swear, if they are leaving this up to interpretation....) Because I see so many people who have “conveniently” missed what Bobby said and insist he’s still in The Empty. Or just want to say “well that’s not what he meant. Cas is still dead, he just meant his influence on Jack” or some shit like that.(Now that I think about maybe influence isn’t the right word to use with this fandom lol)
Anyway lets say that Misha could not in anyway be there for filming. YOU CAN STILL ADDRESS HIS CHARACTER PROPERLY AND GIVE HIM A SATISFYING ENDING. In fact you barely have to change the scene between Dean and Bobby just add a few more lines.
Dean: “So Jack did all that?”
Bobby: “Well Cass helped”
Dean: “Wait, Cass is here?!”
Bobby: ‘Yep, Kid got him out.”
Dean: “Well where is he? Can I see him?”
Bobby (smiling): “Now calm down ya idjit. He’ll be back soon. Had some business to take of. But he is planning to stick around here with the rest of us.’
Dean (smiling, happy because he’s getting a second chance): Good. He belongs with us. With me. (takes a drink) It’s just too bad...
Bobby (knowing he’s talking about Sam: “Don’t worry he’ll be here shortly...”
Scene plays out as normal but instead when Sam and Dean are reunited. Dean tells him “Let’s head back, Mom, Dad, Bobby, and Cass are waiting for us. Along with everyone else we loved and lost when we were alive.”
Or... a few scenarios with Castiel there (even for a few moments)
1. When Dean dies (yeah we’ll talk about that) Jack sends down Cass to take him to heaven. Dean leaves his body. Watches as Sam falls apart and then hears “Hello Dean” turns and there’s Cass to guide him to heaven and also let him know Sam will be okay and will live a happy life”
2. The scene with Bobby starts the way it did but instead after he says “Well Cass helped” he points behind Dean.
Cass: “Hello Dean.”
Dean: “Cas! Aw, it’s good to see you. You have no idea.”
They embrace. Maybe the say something about the confession maybe they don’t but at least they’re together and we know that they have time to talk.
Episode continues as it did but again Dean tells Sam that Castiel is here waiting for them.
3. Episode plays exactly as it did. Except at the very end after Sam and Dean reunite on the bridge...
Cass: “Hello Dean. Hello Sam”
Both: Cass!
The three hug. Dean a bit longer.
Dean: “Well look at that. Team Free Will back together again. This time forever.”
In any scenario Castiel is living in heaven with the boys. Him and Dean eventually talk about what happened. In my canon Dean returns his feelings but even if he can’t it’s okay because Dean does care about Cass. And Castiel’s happiness was just in being able to say it. Either way they’re together along with everyone else they love and will be waiting for those who haven’t arrived yet.
Also Cass finally gets his guinea pig. Because he deserves it.
ONCE AGAIN, EVEN IF MISHA COULDN’T BE THERE. THERE WERE STILL BETTER WAYS TO HANDLE THIS ENDING! OH AND THERE BETTER NOT BE SOME LAME ASS THING LIKE ‘HE’S IN HEAVEN WORKING WITH JACK BUT ISN’T ALLOWED HERE BECAUSE THE NEW GOD LIKES TO KEEP ANGELS SEPARATE FROM THE REST OF US’
NO. CASTIEL IS DEFINITELY WITH DEAN IN HEAVEN. END OF STORY.
Moving on the other problems which I won’t go into full detail in like I did Castiel.
Dean’s death. The ever loving fuck was that? A nail?! I get that they finally get to call the shots in there own lives now but come on! A nail. And this is what a few weeks after defeating Chuck. Who, if he wants to can have a happy life. You know when Cass heard about this he rolled his eyes. Like “Really?!”
Ewwww that forehead touch. I know for most people it’s just a sweet final moment between two siblings as one dies. But we all know this is fuel for the Winc*sters and b*bros. I mean come on now. You’re afraid to have Dean even acknowledge Castiel’s feelings but a forehead touch that can and will be taken out of context as romantic between two brothers is fine and dandy. I was watching this with my Mom and even she was like “That forehead touch,,, why.. just why...”
Funny thing about my Mom. (Sorry not sorry going back to talk about Cass for a moment) She has been watching SPN with me this year but honestly only (not even) half paid attention. She has a habit of always looking at her phone even when it’s something she wants to watch. Two weeks ago after 15X18 I asked “Do you believe Cass’s confession was romantic?”
Her response. “No, they’re just friends. Angels aren’t supposed to feel romantic love.’ We get into a small argument.
A few days later...
Me: “Misha confirmed it was romantic.”
Mom: “Oh, well that settles it then. I just was taught that angels didn’t feel that kind of love.”
Me: “Yeah but your forgetting a few things. 1. Cass isn’t like other angels and 2. This is a fictional tv show not the actual bible.
Mom laughs: “Good point, Guess I didn’t think about that.”
Me: “Y’know people are actually saying  that Cass can’t be gay or bi because Dean isn’t.”
Mom: “That’s stupid. One has nothing to do with the other. Even if Dean doesn’t feel the same way that doesn’t change Castiel’s feelings.”
Jump to the last few days.
Mom: “Cass is going to show up in the finale. He and Dean will be reunited! Maybe he’s one of those people in the masks being controlled by The Empty. Or maybe there will be a scene in the barn where Dean is on the ground about to be stabbed and Cass saves him in the knick of time!”
Mom after the finale: “That was terrible. Very disappointed. They really couldn’t get Misha for few minutes. They better not use covid as an excuse with all those people on that bridge. Everything about this episode felt wrong” (she said that about 15x19 too). (Grabs her phone to look at twitter) “Misha is crying. This episode doesn’t deserve pie.”
We brought pie. We did not eat it.
Moving on.. .yeah yeah the wig on Jared was awful. But who cares. What I want to know is who is the mother? Is it Eileen? I hope it’s Eileen. It better be Eileen.
The barn. Why? Why that barn? Did they really think no one would notice. I get reusing sets and locations as completely different places. But that just hurt.
Did we need so many songs with no dialogue being spoken. I mean yes Carry On was a must have but so much time could’ve been spent talking about other characters during the other songs .
And again why are they trying to make Dean look bad. It’s not his/Jensen’s fault it’s the horrible writing of these final two episodes. Why did they not take to opportunity to talk about Castiel’s confession. Yes I’m  back on Cas again. I warned you. Also he’s probably the main reason you’re reading this anyway, so yeah...
I would like to believe a conversation happened off screen but the way Sam and Dean acted it doesn’t seem like it.
Again would it be so hard. Two scenarios
1.
Dean: “Before Cass got dragged into the Empty he told me...
Sam: :Told you what?”
Dean: He told me... he told me he loved me.”
Sam (smiling): “That’s not news Dean,”
Dean: “No Sammy. He really loved me... like... you know..”
Sam: “Again, not news Dean. How do you feel? “
Dean (hesitates): “ I think... no, I know I love him too. He’s the only man I’ll ever love.”
Sam: “Well you know technically Cass really isn’t male... so...
Dean: “Oh please Sammy. Could you imagine Cass in any other body? Especially a chicks. It would be so weird.”
Sam: “Good point.”
Dean: “Besides, he was perfect the way he was.”
2.
Dean: “Before Cass got dragged into the Empty he told me...
Sam: :Told you what?
”Dean: He told me... he told me he loved me.”
Sam (smiling): “That’s not news Dean,”
Dean: “No Sammy. He really loved me... like... you know..”
Sam: “Again, not news Dean. How do you feel? “
Dean: “I can’t return his feelings. I see him as a man and you know I’m attracted to women.”
Sam: “Alright then.”
Dean. “But y’know...”
Sam: “Hmmm?”
Dean: “I still miss him. I wish he was here with us.”
There were so many easy ways to fix this and they did nothing. Did they not think 15x18 would have a huge impact. I really hope the writers are kicking themselves for this. Funny, by ignoring Castiel and his feelings they actually brought more attention and love to him and Misha.
I really don’t know if a rewrite and reshoot for the dvd release is possible. Has that ever been done, I feel like it has but I’m not sure. But if it is. Fix it. It only took a few weeks to film these last two episodes. I’m sure all the actors can come back to film for a few weeks. Once there are less Covid restrictions of courses. I know there’s been talk about a possible movie. That could fix it. As long as they bring back the angel in the trench coat. Or how about a bonus episode for the dvd 15x21 where everyone is gathered in heaven. Sam, Dean, Cass, Bobby, Mary, John, Kevin, Charlie, Eileen, Jo, Ellen, Pam. Even Crowley and Rowena because why not. Oooh and Meg too because she did sacrifice herself for them and also I just love her.  Anyway they all gather and talk about old times. Perfect excuse for an old fashion clip show. Funny/heartwarming banter in between. Make Destiel canon at the end. Another possible way to fix it is do a comic book season or even just a few issues to flesh out the ending in heaven. Just fix it.
At least we have fanfiction.
If there are any positives to take away it’s this:
1: Castiel is in heaven with Dean. They are together. They have a second chance.
2. It was said only 30% of the fanbase would like this ending. Like many people I assumed that meant a Destiel ending. Cause I thought out of the whole fanbase shippers were in the minority. Nope turns of the the Winc*sters/B*bros are the 30%. Destiel fans, Cass fans, Misha fans are part of the 70% who hate this. Though why you would want to only please 30% of your fanbase is beyond me.
3. Sam was able to live a long happy life without being codependent on his brother.
I absolutely hated the last two episodes and how this show ended. Again the only saving grace is knowing Jack got Castiel out of The Empty and he and Dean reunited in heaven. But no matter how much I hated 99% of the ending. I still love this show and all it’s characters. I will happily go back and watch it over again to relive the good, funny, sad, bittersweet moments. The final 90 minutes of the series is not going to ruin that for me. I love Sam and Dean but Castiel is my favorite and I will happily go back and enjoy everything about his character. I am not going  to let this ruin Supernatural for me. Next summer I am going to my first SPN Convention and I can’t wait. I may have only discovered the greatness of Supernatural a year ago after avoiding it for so long but I want it to stay apart of my life. Like I said I only got into Supernatural a little over a year ago but this hurt my heart so much I only imagine how those of your who’ve been here for over a decade feel.
I know this was very, very long and I probably actually forgot some things I wanted to say. But I’m tired.
Cass and Dean are in heaven together. I believe they are canon 💙💚

Sam Girl- Sam Winchester x Reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pairings: Sam x Reader, Dean, Castiel
Warnings: FLUFFY FLUFF, mentions of the last half of the final season of SPN and the emotional rollercoaster we’re all currently on (I know, I’m sorry!) lying, secrets, insecurities.
Word Count: 2,407
A/N: This imagine kind of plays off my series Crossing Parallel Lines but it’s totally separate! I came up with this imagine from this locket that I bought from Hot Topic. The Winchesters are always so uncomfortable with the idea of “the other world with the actors who play them on TV” and I love Changing Channels; one of my top favorite Supernatural episodes!
*Italics are flashbacks*
 “What?! No! What?! Oh, my Chuck, what the actual hell!” You yell at your phone and throw it across the room.
You huff in annoyance but you feel your heartbreak; you just watched the trailer for the last half of the final season of Supernatural.
“Y/N? Are you okay, I heard you yelling? What happened?” Sam asks, slowly stalking into your slightly ajar door. He knew you could get pretty expressive about your interests and sometimes, the best thing to do is to give you space.
You had been living at the Bunker for a few years since you had connections to the Winchester family. Not that you ever asked for it, but you grew up in the life as well, thanks to your Dad, who ended up getting killed during a hunt when you were sixteen. You had run on your own, doing your hunts, until you got in over your head, and ended up in front of the Bunker, needing the help of the Winchesters to defeat God. Yeah, he was after you too. Your family had more to do with him and had pissed him off, more times than not. It was your Dad who had discovered the lies Chuck had instilled into almost every hunter since the dawn of time, and that wasn’t okay. So, you had to pick up essentially where he left off.
You let out a heavy sigh, running your hands over your face. “Yeah, Sam, I’m okay. I just uh, watched something pretty, well I don’t know how I feel,” you look to him.
“What did you see?” He asks, coming to sit next to you on your bed, after getting the okay from you.
“Um, some animal got hurt and no one could save it,” you say as nonchalantly as possible, hoping Sam would still buy it.
“Oh no, yeah that would upset me too. I’m sorry you saw that baby; are you good now?” He asks as he wraps you up in his arm, pulling you into his side, and kissing your head. You hold onto the opposite side of him, nuzzling your head into his side and showing him the same affection as he was showing you, but also feeling guilty about your lie.
“Yeah, I am. I’m good now, thanks,” you kiss him quickly before you left the room. You hated lying to him but he could never know that side of you. He would dismiss you for sure.
Sam and you had been dating for roughly six months after he heard your discussion with Dean about a current crush you had. Names were never given but it wasn’t hard to figure out who you were referring to. The idea of being close to someone on that level of intimacy again scared him. He knew what the inevitable was for someone like him and it was unfair to the other and it hurt him with a pain he never felt with anything else. When he took interest in a woman, she becomes the center of his world the longer he is with her. Most of the time, however, they never stay too long. It could be a day or a night, or a few days if he was lucky, but the last long-term relationship he had, crushed his soul. Time went by and healed those wounds, but he couldn’t let anyone get too close, no matter how much he wanted to be invested. But when you came into his life, something shifted. He immediately took a liking to you but he wasn’t sure how far he could go. As time went on, and he knew you were sticking around, he allowed himself to go there. He allowed those feelings he knew too well, to flourish within his heart, and it was strange to him, but he liked it. When he found out the feelings were mutual, it did something in him he wasn’t used to; it made him happy. Sure, he’s been happy before, but he had a lot riding on a possibility and if he played his cards right, it could be extraordinary. And it has been. It all started slow, a snail’s pace really, but you couldn’t blame him. If you had been hurt and uncertain as often as he was, you would take everything slow too. That’s why lying to him now, was killing you on the inside. He didn’t deserve it but you knew what kind of man he was and you knew how he felt about certain things.
The library was quiet, so you could be alone with the screaming in your head. You fought with yourself constantly whether, to be honest, or not. Your biggest secret was a huge part of who you were. Adoration for the TV show, Supernatural, was an understatement; you LOVED it! But, hearing the stories from Sam and Dean about when they were stuck in another universe where there were people who act like them, you knew it was unmentionable. Social media was your avenue to let out all your thoughts and ideas with people who shared the same love. No one knew that you lived with the Winchesters, or that they were even real, but that made it more alluring to you. Sitting at the table with your laptop open, you scroll through different comments left by other fans of the show. They were seeing what you were living and that was the most rewarding secret you kept. Pulling the new locket out of your shirt, the words Sam Girl, engraved on the top. Opening it, the anti-possession symbol sat on one side, and a picture of Sam on the other. You run your thumb over the picture, knowing that he was yours, but kept it hidden from him. You owned a plethora of shirts, hats, jewelry, notebooks, and so many other merchandises, that you were quite proud of. You even had a successful blog that was dedicated to the show and the characters, and your imagination with fanfiction. All things you knew Sam would disapprove of. You began writing out your reactions to different videos or events that happened in, not just the Supernatural world, but other fandoms as well.
“Hey, there’s my girl. I was wondering what happened to you,” says Sam. He smiles his small, one-sided grin at you, and sits in a chair to your left.
“Hi, sorry, I got busy writing and I guess I lost track of time,” you admit, closing out your Internet tab and leaving your screen on the cute photo of you and him on your wallpaper.
“You always do,” he chuckles and takes one of your hands. Sam knew about your love of writing and only a few of the topics you wrote about. You laugh along with him, blushing at the fact he knew you so well.
“The life of a writer, baby!” You say, confident in your work, but seeing the look on Sam’s face, quickly changed the mood.
“Where did that come from?” He asks, looking at the chain that hung from your neck. Looking down, you noticed the locket had made its way out of your shirt.
“Oh, that’s nothing!” Grabbing at it and tucking it back in your shirt, you try to advert Sam’s curiosity but that fails.
“Oh, come on, Y/N, let me see it. It looked beautiful.” He comments but you deny him.
“Sorry, but it’s fallen into my bra now,” you say, hoping that would end the conversation but the Winchester Brothers were both very stubborn.
“Don’t think I’m afraid to go in there.” Slight darkness fogged over the normal brightness of his eyes, but it left just as fast as it showed.
“Honestly Sam, it’s nothing. Trust me, you don’t want to know what it is.”
“Trust me y/n, I do want to know. My girlfriend suddenly has a locket I’ve never seen before and won’t show me? I have to wonder if her other boyfriend gave it to her.
You deadpan to him, giving your best bitch face, and he just laughs.
“I’m kidding, but seriously, I want to see it.”
“You didn’t move at first, so he stood up and leaned over to reach in your shirt, but you backed away before he could get there.
“Fine,” you grumble, unclasping the necklace from the back and hand it over.
He seems satisfied that he won this battle, flipping the locket around in his larger than average hands. His eyebrows knitted together, in the cutest look of wonder, like he was a child with a new toy. He opened it, stared down at it for a minute, then handed it back to you.
“You have a locket with a picture of me, which I guess is normal in relationships, but why does it say Sam Girl on the top?” He looked at you quizzically, wanting to know more.
This was it, the time you were dreading the most, but you couldn’t do it anymore; you couldn’t keep lying to him. You prepared yourself for a long discussion and a lot of disgust from him, so you sat back in your chair.
“Sam, I haven’t been completely honest with you.”
“Oh, okay,” he sits back in his seat, eyes glossed with worry and locked on you.
“I’m a Sam girl. I watch that TV show about you and Dean and your lives; I’m a big fan of it. We have, the fans, what are called someone’s girl. Like me, I’m a Sam girl, so I tell other people how I feel about you , what you say and do, and I talk about my romantic feelings towards you. Well, you on this show; it’s a little different.”
Sam had kept quiet the whole time you explained your secret and he held no emotions. You didn’t know what was going through his head, but it couldn’t be good.
“You like that show about our lives from that other universe?” He asks, suddenly breaking the silence.
“Yes,” you answer, hoping he wouldn’t explode at any given point.
“And you didn’t want to tell me about it?” He then looks to you with his infamous puppy dog eyes, wondering why you kept something like this from him.
Taken aback by his calmness, you continue to explain. “Well, I heard the stories of when you went to that other world and how much it freaked you and Dean out, so I thought you would disown me or something if I was into it.”
“Why would I do that?” Sam asks, sadness now forming across his features.
“Because I like something you make fun of! I thought you would make fun of me for what I do. I’m in the whole fandom, Sam! The show, the merchandise, the fanfiction, the blogs; everything!”
That sparked his interest again. “You write fanfiction?” His tone got more questioningly, but you took it as he was going to lay on the mockery.
“Yes, but I swear it’s nothing like some of the stories people write about! It’s actually all clean and sweet. I write about our dates and my feelings, but play it off as fiction.”
Then, his face melted into a smile (GIF), that childlike wonder again. “You write about us?”
“Yeah, I do. And people like it.”
“They do?” He’s surprised now, telling by how high his eyebrows are raised on his face.
“Everyone thinks you’re romantic and that you’re the best boyfriend, but the best part about it, it’s all true,” you smile, but hide it from wandering eyes.
“That’s… sweet,” he comments, stunning you.
“Really?”
“Yeah, I love that you write about us. I think it’s great that you are proud of our relationship and it makes me proud of it too, especially considering other people think I’m pretty great.” He has a little smirk playing on his lips; he’s going to brag about this to Dean later.
“So, you’re okay with all this?” You start to creep a little further into his level of positivity from this topic.
“Surprisingly I am, and I love that you’re showing off that you’re mine,” he pecks your lips before asking another question.
“Wait, are there more of these lockets?”
“Yes, and there’s some that say Dean girl. The same concept,” you comment like it’s nothing but it’s a big deal to Sam.
“There are Dean girls, too?!”
“And there are Castiel girls too, and even some of the other people you guys have met in life, but mainly you three.”
“Oh my God, wait until Dean and Cas hear about this!” Sam was set on telling his brother and his friend; the worst thing you could think of.
“No, please don’t!” Panic set inside you. Telling Sam was one thing but Dean was another.
“Why not?”
“Because Dean won’t be so nice about this. He will mock and ridicule me so much for this. He’s way more opinionated and harsher than you are.”
He thought about it for a minute but knew you were right. Sometimes, his older brother would take things too far, to the point of hurting those he cared about, and Sam couldn’t let that happen to you.
“You’re right, he definitely will freak out over this. He’s way more headstrong about what he doesn’t like. Alright, I won’t tell him and Cas? Well, he’s gotten a lot better with human interactions but, we wouldn’t want to throw him for a loop again,” Sam laughed at confusing the angel with more human things, like when he first came to earth.
“Thank you, Sam,” You say, going to hug him.
“Of course, no one is going to hurt my girl, not even me. But uh, y/n, we need to get you another locket,” he says taking the locket in his fingers again.
“Why? I like it and I paid good money for it,” you take it back and drop it in your shirt.
“Well, there are more of these lockets out there so that means other girls are walking around with a picture of me around their necks. It’s not okay that yours is like everyone else’s, so I’m going to make a special one that I will have engraved with a message from me that’s just to you; my girl,” he whispers the last part right in your ear, electrifying chills through you.
“O-okay.” You stutter out as Sam goes fishing for your locket from the bottom up.
Second A/N: When I was looking for that GIF of Sam, ‘Sexy Back’ started playing; it was perfect!

My little princess
Well, this is my contribution for @cocklesdestielfiction! :D
AO3
This was so much fun to write! :D Of course a little strange to write about “real” persons, but hey - the last season is comming up, we can mess around a bit, don’t we? ;)
I chose the Cockles Canonverse prompt: Rick called Jensen and Misha, “Guys… you need to practice that Destiel kiss, we need to film that in a week.” He ordered them, and disappeared behind the trailers. Jensen and Misha looked at each other and blushed. That was a thing they were avoiding, but now… they had to be professionals and just do it.

My little princess
Rick called Jensen and Misha, “Guys… you need to practice that Destiel kiss, we need to film that in a week.” He ordered them, and disappeared behind the trailers. Jensen and Misha looked at each other and blushed. That was a thing they were avoiding, but now… they had to be professionals and just do it.
***
Their gazes were still locked, as Jared rushed around the corner. “Ah, Jensen here you are! Have you seen Rick? We’ve got to talk with him about this fight-scene, remember?”
Jared stared at them and put his hands on his hips. “Guys…?”
Finally, Jensen seemed to hear what his co-worker and friend just asked. “Yah, Rick was just here a minute ago, can’t be far. You mean the fight scene with you, me and Lisa?”
Jared nodded. “Come on, let’s find him.” And so the two men disappeared as well, leaving behind a frowning Misha.
Mish still couldn’t understand why the topic “Destiel-kiss” was still like a red rag to a bull for Jensen. They knew since season four that this ship would eventually go canon. On screen. Officially. The fans really waited long enough for this. Of course, it still was all top secret.
When Misha thought about it, he had to admit that it was becoming increasingly difficult for both of them to play that brotherly relationship between Dean and Cas. The writers, the producers, even themselves as actors were running out of excuses, as to why the damn ship still wasn’t canon yet. So there was a lot of anger, betrayal and fight-scenes between their characters in the latest seasons. But now, the final season of the show was about to go live, and finally the producers wanted to give the fans what they longed for so long: A real Destiel kiss.
He sighed and stepped into his air-conditioned trailer. They wouldn’t need him to talk about the specific fight scene with Lisa Berry, because he wouldn’t be in this scene. His figure, Castiel, would appear, when Dean would lie like dead on the floor. And then, well, he kinda would go all Sleeping Beauty. It was a stupid scene, but Misha wasn’t in the position to complain. But one thing was clear: There was no way Jensen would ever practice this scene with him, not until the said day has come.
***
“Dude, what’s up with you? You’re almost running. This talk with Rick is not that important, okay?” Jared asked Jensen as they walked along the wet street between the huge halls. They headed to hall C.
“Honestly…,” Jensen began, “I need some air.”
Jared raised his eyebrows. “Aha. And because…”
Jensen rolled his eyes. “Because… You know what scene we’re gonna have to shoot next week, right?”
The other man just had to think for a second until it clicked. “Ha! That! Of course, man, how could I forget that! Gosh, the whole fandom will go crazy…”
“Dude!” Jensen barked, looking pretty angry.
“Yeah, yeah. I know this is a big day for you. So, what’s the matter?”
Jensen cleared his throat. “I… I don’t know if I can… want to do this.”
All of a sudden, Jared stopped. “Excuse me?” He hissed and faced his on-screen-brother. “Why?”
Jensen looked to the floor. “You know why.”
“What? Are you talking about that night years ago? Come on, man!” Jared laughed and shook his head. “You’re kidding, right? It was a drunk night – we were all drunk – it could have happened to anyone of us… Mish has this kind of… attraction… you know that.”
“Yes, I know, man, it’s just…” Jensen began, but Jared raised his hand to interrupt him.
“No. You listen now. You get your shit together next week and act like a fucking professional, okay?”
“But… people will talk, Jared.”
“And? You’re an actor, remember? People will always talk! They even interpret bullshit when we forget to wear socks on a photo shoot, okay!?”
Jensen looked at him with wide eyes, but he nodded slightly. Then they finally saw Rick coming out of the hall C door, waving them to come over. As they walked toward him, Jared said quietly, “This is our job, alright? And for God’s sake – forget Rome!”
Forget Rome. How the hell should he forget that? Dammit. But Pad was right. He had to pull himself together.
***
Of course, they didn’t practice the kiss. In fact, they didn’t even really talk to each other, since Rick gave them his orders. So the day came, and the shooting of the specific scene was just minutes away.
“Gosh, Jensen, why are you sweating so much today? Aren’t you feeling well?” Mikaela, the make-up artist, asked in concern.
“I’m fine.” Jensen said and tried to smile.
“Normally Jared’s the one with the sweaty forehead!” She laughed as she powdered Jensen’s face for perhaps the hundredths time today.
Jensen eyed over to Misha, who sat in his chair, phone in his hand, probably about to post some silly shit on twitter. He seemed relaxed… as usual.
Stay calm, stay cool, Ackles, you got his. He thought to himself like a mantra.
***
There it was, the feeling of his breath… that smell… peppermint and aftershave, make-up, and he could just…
“CUT!”
Rick’s shout was like a clap of thunder and echoed in Jensen’s ears.
“What the hell, Ackles! You play a dead guy, okay, dead guys don’t move their faces! Once again!”
But it wasn’t getting better after the 6th take, and slowly but surely, they were running out of time. After the 7th – failed – take, Jensen threw his hands up in the air. “Sorry, guys! I can’t do this today, okay?” He stood up. “I’m just not in the right mood!”
Rick mumbled angrily, “He’s not in the right… dammit!” He closed his eyes in realization, put his index finger and thumb on the bridge of his nose. “Alright then. Let’s shoot the Cas-stabs-demon-scene instead… it’s the same make-up.”
Rick checked his papers, addressing Jensen. “We can do the scene tomorrow, we’re still well on schedule.” In addition, he gave the actor an obvious view, saying ‘tomorrow you’ll have to do this, man!’ Then he focused on the scene where Castiel had to stab that random demon.
Jared saw everything and decided that he had to do something.
***
“Who’s there?” Jensen shouted, as it knocked on the door of his trailer. It was 9 p.m..
“It’s me, Jared, and…”
“… The new guy!” Misha added, unable to hold back a laughter.
Jensen rolled his eyes as he opened the door. “What…?” He began as he stared to the bottles of wine his friends brought with them. “Seriously? You want to get drunk even though we have to shoot tomorrow morning?”
Jared frowned and looked to Misha who beamed at him and said, “Are you 60 or what, old man?”
Jensen smiled and stepped aside. “Ha, you got me there, come on in then, you crazy people.”
***
It was a long time since they had so much fun. Just the three of them, like they used to, when they had more free-time (and younger livers), they sometimes threw these little parties in their trailers. Suddenly, they felt thrown back in time, felt ten years younger and found themselves digging out old stories and jokes they thought they had long forgotten.
Their tummies hurt from laughing so hard and Jensen had tears in his eyes, as Misha told them for the 25th time how weird he felt on his first days on set.
As they opened wine bottle number three, their conversation began to focus on the current season, their last season. The script was good, but with some things, they weren’t really happy with. Especially the part where Dean dies. Cas was supposed to give him one last kiss, dropping the Destiel-bombshell, and that’s it. End of Dean Winchester, once and for all.
“One could get a little melancholic about that don’t cha think?” Jared said, but couldn’t hold back a laugher.
“Yeah,” Misha said, “After all these years of coming back from the dead… not even a sleeping-beauty-kiss can wake Dean up. Haven’t the writers seen a single Disney movie? I mean,” he turned to Jared, “Why the hell were you allowed to wear your hair like that for years now, Padalecki? I’m sure they’ve seen a princess-movie!” He made a (played) thoughtful face.
They laughed and laughed and toasted on their friendship.
“Ha, but honestly, Jensen.” Jared began after he could breathe normal again, “If that isn’t the easiest kissing scene on earth, then I dunno, bro!”
Misha nodded in agreement. “Mhm, you really don’t have much to do, right? Just lying there, waiting for me to do all the hard work!” he smiled and nipped on his glass.
Jensen’s smile faded and he was suddenly lost in his thoughts. “Yah…” he said, “That’s just… silly in a way… don’t you think? Silly…” His eyes met Misha’s and it was one of those moments when Jared wasn’t sure if they both were aware of him being still in the room.
Jared checked his watch and startled. Hell, it was already 1 a.m.. He cleared his throat. “Okay guys, I’ll go to sleep now, see ya tomorrow.”
The other two could only wish him a good night’s sleep, before Jared disappeared without another comment.
Jensen nipped on his wine. “So, here we are now.”
“Here we are.” Misha confirmed, putting his now empty glass down on the table. “I think I go to my trailer too, at least I have one as well now, after 10 years.” He winked at Jensen and had his hand already on the doorknob.
Jensen sighed deeply and then, he heard himself saying one single word. “Wait.”
Misha turned around, surprised, expectantly.
“Maybe Rick was right… Maybe… we should…” Jensen swallowed, obviously looking for words.
“Maybe we should be professionals and practice that kiss, you mean?” Misha finally said.
Jensen looked up from his glass, right into Misha’s blue eyes. He nodded.
Misha put on a little, knowing smile and took some steps toward Jensen. “Well then… Lie down.” He commanded in his low Cas-voice.
Shit. It’s happening. Jensen was totally aware that in his slightly drunk state it wasn’t a very good idea to practice a kiss with this guy, but… he could handle this. He reminded himself what Jared said. You’re a fucking professional, okay?
So he laid himself down on the couch, just like he was supposed to do in the scene. He observed Misha, who came slowly closer and sat down right by his side.
“Close your eyes.” Misha said firmly and with one hand he grasped Jensen’s hands that were folded on his stomach. Endless seconds passed until Misha placed his other hand on Jensen’s cheek, never breaking their gazes.
“Close your eyes, Jensen.” He repeated more calm now, and finally Jensen did as he was told.
There it was, the feeling of his breath… that smell… wine and shampoo, leather jacket…
Jensen was petrified. Didn’t move a single nerve. He thought, that maybe even his heart just stopped beating.
“Perfect…” Misha whispered, unbearable close now. And then Misha closed the gap between their faces and pressed a gentle kiss on the other man’s lips.
After some seconds that felt like forever, he broke away. Jensen was still lying there, like dead. Then Misha stroked his cheek with his thumb and said in his gravely voice, “I’m so sorry, Dean. I should have told you this a long time ago. I love you, Dean Winchester. Now and Forever.”
Then he kissed him again, this time on his forehead, a careful touch of perfect lips on his sweaty skin, and Jensen couldn’t… he shouldn’t… Yes, he would.
All of a sudden, he opened his eyes, his pupils widened has he looked into Misha’s and said, “The hell? I love you too, Cas, but next time, we don’t take poisoned apples from strange witches to make pie, promise?”
Misha tilted his head to the side. His puzzled look was just like Cas’. “That isn’t in the script, my little princess, you stay dead, remember?”
“Yeah, I know… but… not tonight.” Jensen said and then he raised his arms to wrap them around Misha’s neck and ran his fingers through the dark hair. He pulled him closer. “Tonight, you can show me what an angel of the lord would do to a poor human soul like Dean Winchester, to make him feel better. If that Destiel trash should go canon, Dean needs to know what it feels like.”
Misha put on a dangerous smirk. “You really wanna try me, Jensen Ross Ackles? Don’t you remember what happened in Rome?”
Jensen smiled knowingly. “I will never forget that. And now come on, Collins, before I get my sanity back.”
***
The world would never get to know what Castiel, angel of the lord, could possibly to do Dean Winchester to make him feel better. But Jared definitely knew, as he left them alone in the trailer and met them on set next day. Well, let’s say, a lot of make-up was necessary to hide the dark rings under their eyes.
However, what we can say for sure, is that the script for the final episode was rewritten. Because after Misha and Jensen brought on their perfect Destiel kiss, they showed the directors one last time their dazzling chemistry and improvised their own little Destiel-happy-ending. (Basically Dean waking up like friggin’ sleeping beauty to a prince’s kiss, making jokes about poisoned apple pie).
And so the show’s very end flashed like a supernova, and in the eyes of the fans it was an ending that they ALL deserved.
THE END.
***
Well, I hope you like it, guys! <3

The Not-So-French Mistake
Chapter 10: Seize the Moment… Literally
Sydney’s eyes flickered open, having been shut as images channeled across her vision. The voices within the memory hindered any means of hearing her surroundings, so when it abruptly unmuted, she flinched fiercely at the new stimulation.
“―ney? You okay? Woah, Sydney? Syd!” 
She grunted irritably as two calloused hands patted her cheeks. Her head had settled onto the unforgiving tile, where she woozily sat up, leaning against the wall as a brace. A phantom cramp lingered in her skull, throbbing when she opened her eyes. She’d never had a migraine before, yet she was certain this was comparable.  
Stressed, viridescent pupils hovered above her owlishly as Dean supported her by the shoulders, and she realized that her knees had given out. She huffed a weak laugh.
He blinked, utterly bewildered,  “What?”
“That’s… that’s the first time you’ve said my name. You always use nicknames.”
“No, I don’t,” he grunted, concentrating on her debilitated state. “Here.” He boosted her upward by the shoulders, straightening her spine and supporting the greater part of her weight as she regained her strength.
“Yes, you do,” she reasoned. “Like, pipsqueak, sweetcheeks, cupcake, sparky, tootsie, cheeseball, princess, sweetheart… even pug-face―”
“Okay, okay, Hot-shot. I get it.” He was too distracted to care.
“See!” she said, gesturing to express her triumph.
Dean countered it with a gentle nudge against her flailing hands, urging her to just relax. He was concerned, and she wanted to rave about the pet names he’d given her on the occasion. “Shut up,” he proposed, so she did, allowing him to fuss. He finally demanded, “Now what did I just watch?”
“I panicked when I saw the room, okay? That’s it.” It wasn’t a total lie, but she wasn’t going to yap about her problems. Not to Dean Winchester, even though he’d proven to be a very skilled psychiatrist during difficult cases. Some people just needed to work through their crap. However, she did not.
“Panicked?” he said, “You seized for a whole three minutes! I was the one panicking!”
She sobered her easygoing behavior at the chilling news. Crap, she reflected, I had a seizure? She knew it wasn’t her fault, but guilt pooled in her gut nonetheless. Dean must have went berserk.
Dean ran his fingers through his dark-blond hair, a slight tremble in the motion. “Let’s just get out of here, okay? I have the note. Let’s go. We don’t want this thing to crumble while we’re in it.” 
The dingy hotel room now beared two equally horrible memories. He was itching to burn the hotel until the basement was brimming with ashes, but the town had suffered enough heat, so just leaving altogether would be enough
There was a cumberous silence that weighed on her like a blanket woven into bulky, lead chains. Her tongue was anchored to her teeth, the words having died on her lips. Why was silence often linked with peace? Peace was hardly the word for the deafening chains that even darting thoughts could not break.
Her mind wandered, and after mentally pondering several scenarios, she built up the courage to ask what dug at her mind. She assumed this was a safe question. “What’s with the nicknames, anyway?” Her tone was delicate and hesitant as she spoke, afraid of a harsh yell in retort.
Dean sighed, realizing this wouldn’t drop until he addressed her. “It’s you. You… you and Sammy are like the exact same person, I swear. It’s why the nicknames just… roll into my conversations with you. And, when you get hurt… I just… Sammy calls it ‘big-brother-mode’, but that’s my form of a panic attack, I guess. I ain’t sniveling, but I get so…” A shiver forced its way to the surface, carrying a shudder with it, goosebumps rising along his forearms. He grew increasingly self-conscious over his response to her seizure. “Sorry, I know it’s weird. We literally met yesterday.”
“No… it’s…” she began, searching for the right word, “sweet.”
“Sweet?” he asked, skeptical, eyebrows climbing.
“Yeah, it’s… it’s sweet.” She nodded thoughtfully. “A hardened hunter panicking when family is hurt is… sweet, in your own way.” She blushed, moved by her own words. It was one thing watching a character on the screen and admitting his weakness was his strength, but doing so face to face was absolutely nerve wracking. “You know, the show depicts you as a bad-boy who uses sarcasm to avoid talking about his emotions, but I’m starting to see your soft side, too. You’re actually a teddy bear, aren’t you?”
A mischievous glimmer shone in his eyes at her comment. He gave an encouraging waggle of his eyebrows, successfully lightening the mood.
Sydney rolled her eyes. “It also implied you were immature, as well. Guess they were right about that.” 
He shrugged childishly, “Who would I be without it?” However, his genuine behavior drained away as he pondered his rhetorical question, and a solid, weighty truth settled on his shoulders as an answer: without his humor, Dean would be a broken man. A very, very broken man.
The new thought brought daylight onto the reality of the conversation, and the manipulation Sydney was actually driving here. Dean had begun the discussion straightforwardly centered upon Sydney’s spontaneous seizure, and she had still managed to punch his figurative, magic buttons into talking about himself.
“Kiddo?” he asked lightly, “You know, it’s alright to talk about yourself, here. You’re safe with me.”
Sydney paused, taken off-guard by the sudden granted permission. He’d bypassed her subtle guidance of a topic change and twisted it right back around―right where they had started. A situation such as this had never occured in… in her lifetime, really. She was lost with what to say.
For Sydney’s entire life, she saw self-reflection to be undesirable, so she deflected and redirected the theme of a conversation from herself and back onto the spectator neglectfully. For most, it was mindlessly accepted, a simple bait reliably taken. 
However, Dean was not of the vast majority. He consistently saw through her veil like it was translucent.. He saw because it’s all he could see. Dean recognized her act because he wore the mask himself daily. 
She frowned. “Dean, um… admittedly, my friend forced me to watch this show, but, uh… you’re like, one of my childhood heroes.” To describe this was like assembling a fresh puzzle; she wasn’t sure where to start. “Let me give you an example, let’s say there’s this really loyal Marvel fan that ends up meeting the real Batman. The real deal. While they would prefer meeting Ironman or Captain America, meeting Batman is still like meeting a celebrity, no matter how you see it. You’re Dean Winchester, and it doesn’t help that you’re wearing the celebrity actor’s face from my world. It’s like, double the famous.” She inhaled at the gravity of her life right now: having met Dean Winchester, the exact doppelganger of Jensen Ackles. “I don’t just go admitting my weaknesses to celebrities. It’s terrifying… so, just give me a moment to compose myself.”
Dean paused, dubious. “I’m comparable to Batman? C'mon, nuh uh.” He paused, considering it, “Seriously?”
She snorted. “Believe me, you’ve got a whole fandom in my world willing to sell their souls for you. You’re lucky my world doesn’t have the supernatural. Fourteen seasons and all- well, I’m technically in like, the eighth right here, I guess. I’m basing it roughly off of Sam’s haircut.”
Even though Dean was slightly amused that Sam’s hair could tell a fan what year it was, one comment especially jolted him. “Fourteen seasons? You mean we’re only about halfway there?” He sucked in a breath. “It gets worse doesn’t it?”
She hesitated. “Uh, yeah. Supernatural loves to build the suspense. So, yeah, let’s just say things get a lot crazier. I may not have obsessed over you, but I pay attention to my shows. You… you had it easy during the apocalypse.”
“Jesus,” he breathed.
She winced. “Not quite.”
Dean frowned, monitoring her expression. Suddenly his frown turned grave. “Don’t tell me. It’s God, isn’t it?” He said it bitterly.
“Actually, God’s sister… and then… yeah, uh, God does come into play.” She began to clam up, realizing she’d let a major plot slip. “Yeah… uh… just forget what I said,” she stammered, realizing the massive impact this could deal out. She doesn’t want his future doomed because she told him a chunk of his future.
A worryingly blank look washed over Dean’s face and then he’s chuckling proudly to himself. “Can’t believe I’m comparable to Batman. Oh, man, wait til’ I tell Sam.”
Sydney giggled, though a bit miffed by the sudden change of topic. “Yeah, add that to your ‘I killed Hitler’ list.”
“I kill Hitler?!” Dean lit up. “Sweet!” He paused contemplating over something, “Fandom, huh? You much of a Dean-girl?” He smirked devilishly.
Sydney considered it. “I guess I was more of a Castiel or Gabriel kind of girl. Definitely more of a Dean-girl than a Sam-girl, but…” She reddened, crimson dusting her ears. “Ew, wait. You guys are like, forty. Why am I even saying this?” Embarrassment fluttered in her chest like a cage of startled bats.
“No harm done, honey,” he drawled. He nodded, judging her preferences. His lips quirked. “…Gabriel?”
Her stance grew defensive, crossing her arms. “What can I say? He becomes an interesting character. I like to review my choices,” she said. “But… no. They’d be more like… family. Brother-sister relationship. I don’t know why. Just feels right.“
Silence threatened to swallow the light mood, signalling the end of the topic. Dean decided to transition back to the other tickle in his forethoughts. “So, tell me, what’s crazier than the apocalypse?” 
“You… what? We just…” said that… she trailed off, leaving the sentence unfinished. She froze, tilting her head.
“I just what?” He did that concerned eyebrow thing, his face scrunching up like some kind of protective bear.
She stared at him in horrified awe and stumbled back, legs trembling upon the crushing realization. She had done something to him. “I just… you…” she stammered. “I just told you to forget something and you did!” Fear, disgust, and absolute terror bubbled and threatened to overflow within her abdominal region. What was she? A freak?
 “Last time I wanted to be normal. This time I know I’m a freak.” ~Sam Winchester
A garbled cry left her lips as her head catapulted another hammering blow at the frail wall barricading locked memories. These weren’t her memories, though! She recognized them enough, but the perspective was in the eyes of a man. These spontaneous not-flashbacks were becoming alarming. What do these mean?! She cried within the barriers of her mind. What do you want from me?!
Calm yourself, kiddo, her mind supplied gently.
In her delirium, she was unsure if she was responding to her own thoughts, or if she was actually receiving answers. She began sobbing into the heels of her hands as a pain akin to having a nail jammed into the base of her skull splintered across the base of her forehead.
Dean was quick to react to her unplanned breakdown. Their conversation had went from lighthearted to massively distressing. “Hey, hey, hey! Kid? What’s up? Sydney?” Dean urged her to answer as she literally bawled into his shoulders, fists grabbing at his jacket in misery.
The pain dispersed, drawing back as if it’d been spooked by her reaction to its presence. The drilling agony blended into a distant ache, like the itch of an old scar. Suddenly, she could breathe again.
“What was with the waterworks, kid? What’s up with you?” Dean didn’t mean to be accusatory, but he was becoming antsy. His eyes were dark as he watched her, and he rubbed at his ears like there was water in them. Why would there be water in his ears?
She wheezed, “They're… I’ve been getting these… they’re memories.” She grimaced. “But they aren’t mine.”
He squinted at her, judgement clearly displayed along his face, though his eyes were hooded. “And you didn’t think to tell me?”
She sucked a breath in, prying herself from Dean as if her joints were wooden. “I hoped it would stop.”
Dean sent her a pensive frown.
“Dean, when I was… experiencing that… I asked a question. Uh… in my head.” 
A wary eyebrow sprung toward his hairline, and Dean watched her suspiciously. “A question?”
She admitted, “Yeah… I… I asked what it wanted because it felt like someone. And I didn’t want just anyone inviting themselves into my mind like it’s a public bathroom or something. And it was like… not like I was possessed, but like…” she strained for the right word. “Like telepathy, Dean.”
He watched her patiently, searching for hidden expressions, but she was open and trusting.
She licked her lips, preparing to share her last bit of news. “And I… when I asked…”
“It answered.”

What went wrong with Castiel?
For the past few seasons of Supernatural there is one thought that has been plaguing me constantly. That thought was, what the hell happened to Castiel's character? While I was having an internal debate as a fan the last episode sort of broke my resolve and I decided to remove my Fan Goggles. I decided to wear my Critics Goggle and look at the character objectively.
Now, if you decide to read further be prepared for some harsh words and opinion. If you are Misha stan or shipper of any kind this post is not for you. I am writing it as a third person view and not as some fan or shipper. Also it's my opinion on what I think went wrong. So, turn around if you are not strong enough to accept that there can be different opinions. 
So, what went wrong with Castiel? Here are my two cents that no one asked for….
First thing first, Misha is an average actor by which I mean he doesn't have much of a range but he has a likeable personality. A personality that not only commands attention but is also approachable and sweet. 
This is what previous writers, directors and producers recognized in Misha and it is one of the main reasons why I think they cast him as an Angel. Remember, Misha had auditioned for a Demon but the actors who played demons on Supernatural had always been layered and showed a wide range of acting skills. Misha's single layered act would have fell short, however, him as a clueless but badass angel was perfect. His acting suited the role and the script didn't demand much of Misha. 
Misha, immediately took upto Castiel and gave his all coz the role was right up his alley. He even module his voice for the character and the introduction of Castiel on screen is one of the best characters introduction. He was perfect mix of badass but clueless angel. He played it off perfectly and writers started cashing on his gullible trait like that of Joey in Friends. However, as the character got popular the writers started showing more and more clueless Cas but there is a downside when you base your character on one trait. It starts to get one dimensional and boring, writing becomes difficult. 
By Season 6 that is exactly what happened with Castiel. Sera Gamble decided to add another level to character by turning Cas into a juiced up angel who thinks he is God. While, the idea was great and Misha gave his best, he still couldn't branch out more and the acting range was limited. One might also see that Misha got comfortable in Cas skin and it became difficult for him to leave it behind and act like some other character. 
Gamble realised that ain't much writers can do about it so she used an easy way out. She killed Castiel in Season 7. The decision didn't work amongst fan and they decided to bring back Cas as Emanuel, a healer who lost his memory. While the gullibility worked there was still discontent amongst fans as they wanted to see something more for Cas. They didn't just want a clueless angel who doesn't understand pop references but some other story arc.
Jim Carver decided to give that to Cas but in the quest of doing so he removed the main trait of Cas. He ruined the gullibility by having Metatron transfer entire pop culture reference in Cas, therefore removing the clueless and gullibility. Not only that but he also humanized Cas, so in one sweep Carver removed Misha's strong point with which he was introduced. 
Now Misha was on directors' and writers' mercy and instead taking a clue Carver threw him up against the wall with Lucifer. It was the biggest mistake as that character was not only recurring but was also played by two strong actors Jared and Mark P. 
In my opinion, Carver expected a lot of Misha and with his range of acting which didn't get honed any further than what he started with. He failed short.
It was like Misha was thrown in the deep end with no life jacket. Once again Misha tried his best, he even tried to module his voice a formula which had worked for Castiel but it didn't work for Casifer. The reason being Cas was fresh character which Misha had built up from scratch whereas Lucifer was played by two other actors so there was direct comparison. As a result, Casifer became butt of jokes not only on set but also at the network event. 
Carver decides to leave the character aside for a while, it was just there in the scene. Whereas when Dabb took over the character got reduced to plot device. Dabb who is hardly aware of the premises of characters started writing Cas as per the scripts demand but there is only one trait that he can bring back without retconning. That is turn Cas into badass angel but in Dabb era the writers has gone lazy and don't work much on reasoning which is why we see at one episode Cas has powers in other he doesn't. However, Dabb can't just have badassery in the plot we now have three men who are badass - Sam, Dean and Cas - so he also needed the gullible, clueless character who can make audience go Awww. Can't do it to Cas so in comes Jack who is nothing but Cas 2.0 and by this time we can also see that Misha has also given up on acting. He hardly tries, he just goes through the motions.
So, now what do we have distilled version of Cas who is there for only two reasons - plot device and baiting shippers. 
One thing gets very clear that though there is an average actor, good writers especially writers who can write to the actors  strength can make strong character out of average actor. Cas is a good example of that.
Sorry for the long winded post. Once again, these are my opinion.

American Horror Story: Apocalypse
Here are my opinions that could clear some of your minds and possibly answer some questions. (MAY BE EDITED IN THE FUTURE.)
Why didn’t Michael bring back Nan, while he brought back the others?
She’s a lost cause: Remember, Nan’s life/soul was traded in to Papa Legba for Marie Laveau’s immortality back in season 3. So it’s possible that Michael wouldn’t be able to retrieve her due to Papa Legba’s statue (him being a separate entity and all): he’s part of the Haitian Vodou culture, which is unrelated to the Roman Catholicism beliefs that Michael (the Anti-Christ) “can” fall under. So therefore, it’s possible he wouldn’t be able to bring back Nan himself, UNLESS he was able make some sort of deal with Papa, which seems more believable. However, this is unlikely because the actress who played Nan, Jamie Brewer doesn’t appear to be credited for this season. But I guess Ryan can pull anything out of his ass at this point, so who really knows?
UPDATE: @xlangdons-evilbabygirlx has claimed that since Nan is clairvoyant, it’s possible Michael would rather keep Nan dead than alive since she could easily read his, and anyone else’s mind. This is an easier theory to get behind but, it still doesn’t excuse Cordelia’s statement of having “all her girls” back. How rude. 
(BUT THIS INFORMATION COULD BE USEFUL FOR FAN-FICTION OR ROLE-PLAYING PURPOSES. Just saying. You’re welcome!)
The Supreme situation: (PART 1, Cordelia’s Power)
I’m going to be honest, I have no idea why Cordelia’s rotting but, I have a theory we can discuss: When Fiona and the supreme before her were essentially dying (”fading”) and losing their powers, they received different conditions such as cancer and other health problems. It’s possible that she was cursed by Michael, or that she was too head on with his evil (demonic) force. But, it’s weird that the other witches don’t exactly have this effect from him, (except for Misty, since she fell back by his presence, when she was brought back. And even then, she had stated that she can sense the evil within him.) and they’re supposedly weaker than the supreme, so I’m not very sure. 
(PART 1: UPDATE) Now that I’ve seen episode 5 for the second time, I am leading more onto that Michael is using his powers to make it seem like Cordelia is fading when in reality, she isn’t; it’s just a show for the warlocks to force them believe that he’s the next supreme, and to serve doubt to Cordelia and her Coven. This is backed up by one scene where Michael reopens his eyes to Misty, causing her to fall back, while weakening Cordelia and giving her a bloody nose.
The Supreme Situation: (PART 2)
Both Michael and Mallory are not be the next supreme. It just wouldn’t make sense and Mallory would be too obvious. (but I’ll get back to her in a different bullet of her own) However,I do believe they’re different forces that aren’t warlock or witch related, Michael being the Anti-Christ and Mallory being the exact opposite. Take Note: It’s also stated by Cordelia, that “He will not be the next Supreme” and that she only let him perform the Seven Wonders to see how powerful he truly was while using  him to her benefit (to get Misty back).
I know Michael has stated, “I thought I got rid of them all” during his ritual. It’s possible that he still didn’t have a clue and just safely assumed she was a witch. OR IT COULD BE A PLOT HOLE. OR I’M JUST PLAIN WRONG and that she is a powerful witch & the next supreme but, I’m really hoping that is not the case, because that would be whack as f*&%. I’m sorry,  but that would be too obvious. Give us something different...
Who or What is Mallory?
Okay, SO: Mallory’s abilities (to me) don’t display magic or any sort of witchcraft in my opinion, but as something very godlike. She can resurrect the dead, give life or create it, which was showcased by bringing back a deer from death or its suffering while also reversing its age. She also created life from a plain white rose by transforming its petals into butterflies. Mallory could possibly be a child born from “god” and human, making her a demigod or even the next Christ (if Ryan takes it there???). She be an angel or something else angelic if we’re getting something smaller. So, there’s no way she could be the cause of Cordelia’s deteriorating body since, she doesn’t bring forth death or decay; she brings the opposite. 
Mallory also appears to be Michael’s only equal, and this was shown when she went face to face with him back in his office, without showing any fear whatsoever. He then asked “who are you?”, which lead me to believe he couldn’t identify her or “what she was” because, let’s be real, he could easily sense a witch’s presence when one is brought up to him, since he’s been surrounded by them before. He also showed distress and shock when Mallory forced out fire from behind him; Michael was never afraid of a witch or her power before, so why would he be now? 
The Same Face Actors that Play Different Characters
I thought this was established already in previous seasons (Hotel mainly) but, I see that some people are still confused with the different characters sharing the same faces. It’s safe to say it’s ignored within this universe, even if the characters end up meeting each other face to face. For example, in Hotel, no one acknowledged that Billie Dean Howard looked like Sally or Cordelia (since she was mentioned by Liz Taylor in the last episode of season 5), because they’re different and unrelated. End of Story. I hope that makes sense, I tried my best explaining this once.

I was very angry over deans death and bashed jp when he said promoted finale. But seems like ja is ok with deans death since he calls himself no1 fan. I don't have much hopes for prequel since ja is a big John stan. Idk man, I don't buy CW sniper thing I think ja made his peace with finale and is proud of barn scene and that hurts me a lot.
Same, Nonnie, same. Though "I don't have much hopes for the prequel" is waaaay too generous. "Atrocity" is more like it.
Even if that thing crashes and burns (and god I hope it does, I'll throw a party on its ashes) a big part of my love for ja and any faith in him having anything akin to good taste are irrevocably gone.
It's not just disappointing but freaking awful that the man who played Dean for 15 years has so little compassion for him (cause there's no point in talking about "love" here) that he's excusing, praising, and celebrating his death AND forcing him to tell his abuser's cute, epic love story.
Dean lost more than his childhood to neglect, parentification, being turned into a soldier, doing the emotional labor at 4, cleaning his father’s messes even before the fire; he spent over a half of his life berated, burdened, humiliated, and physically and psychologicaly abused by his father. And then still long beyond that, Dean hated himself because of his father. Dean believed he was worthless, 90% crap, good for nothing but taking care of Sam because of his father.
For his entire life.
And as soon as he began to learn otherwise, he died. Before he got to live, love, make his own choices about his life, enjoy his freedom, dip his toes in the sand, he died.
(while cleaning his father's mess, again)
Only to be forced to spend his afterlife with his abusive father and tell HIS lovey-dovey story? Making him the huge hero who’d saved the world before Dean ever did?
Not to mention it will spawn fucking j*hngirls. Just thinking of it makes me feel sick. But hey, I guess then the number 1 j*hn stan will be surrounded by his own people, having chats about how awesome j*hn is 🙃🙃🙃
It's hurtful, very freaking hurtful, and I know I shouldn't care, it shouldn't hurt so much that some actor guy I'll never meet doesn't care about Dean but all those years of believing he did and that he faught for Dean and that he wanted best for him, the "first love of my life" and the "I got him"??? Fuckkkk, I can't express how much "I got him" meant to me and how that comfort got snatched away when it turned out to be a lie that he's only got him like you've got a cool tool in your toolbox that can make you more millions than it already did.
[I'm sorry I'm repeating myself, my brain's been on fire with all this crap for months]
And yeah the cw sniper theory is silly, and created by one fraction of the fandom and let's be real, it's not dean's death that most of them have a problem with.
Oh, and before I get called a deranged hater again, I wanna say that I'll continue to support JA as an actor in his future projects (ofc not this one) and respect him as a human being and a talented performer (though not as a "storyteller" or whatever since he has an awful taste) but I will never stop being deeply disappointed in him and angry about the prequel or hurt by his praise of the finale (and the finale itself ofc).
Actually, I wish I hated him, that'd be easier 🙄
I’m sorry, Nonnie, that I can’t offer you comforting words but I don't have any. It's just one big, open wound and JA keeps putting more salt in it whenever he says something about Dean. Since he moved on from caring about Dean, I hope he'll just move on from him entirely soon and stops talking about him (can we please move on from the cons as a society? We’ll all be much happier). Someone please give this man more work to hype instead (Kripke, s3 when???)
All I can offer is that you aren’t alone in this hurt and my askbox is open if you need someone to talk to.
Oh and I believe you made a typo, it's spelled j*hn. ;)

My 13.01 Opinion
Lost and Found I can’t tell you how happy I am that the boys are back, hiatus is over. and I can do this again!! Let’s get started shall we? From the jump, my emotions were high. We enter a brand new season to the tune of Nothing Else Matters by Metalica. Every season before now has used an upbeat song to open with, but this song is deep and emotional. The lyrics are SO fitting to Sam and Dean and where they are now. I will include the lyrics at the end of this, but I was particularly moved by the line
 “Trust I seek and I find in you. Every day for us, something new. Open mind for a different view, and nothing else matters” You can tell right away this season is going to be a hard one for our boys. Not that it hasn’t been before, but this one is going to emphasize that Sam and Dean can make it through anything, if they have each other. Nothing else matters but them in their world, and this show.  We start off immediately after where we left off at the end of S12. Sam being the first to meet Jack, and Dean looking at Cas’s body. Jack’s first word is to Sam and it’s “Father” of course Sam tells him he isnt his father, but this is going to be important in regards to Sam and Jack’s relationship. Sam is the first person he saw, the first to show him kindness, and the first to defend his life. Jack wont forget later when shit inevitably hits the fan.  Dean leaves Cas’s body to find Sam and he too meets Jack, but both he and Jack are startled at the sight of each other, Dean’s instinct is to shoot, and Jack’s is to scream and do this AWESOME thing that suspends Sam and Dean in mid air, and the effect where they move their heads in slow motion to look at each other was AWESOME!! I was really impressed with this and said WOOOAAAHHH!! out loud! 
Sam and Dean are knocked unconscious and Jack takes off.  Just before waking however, Dean has a dream or vision about their mother burning. Standing in front of them, like they were in 12.23 and catching fire, and then burning on the ceiling like in 1.1. This wasnt elaborated on, so it will probably come up later. We move on to Sam and Dean driving, looking for Jack. Dean is wrecked, talking about who they’ve lost (Cas, Mom and Crowley) and Sam, I cant say he was really in denial, or optimistic, but rightfully in disbelief, given their history, Sam was more like “Are they really gone?” Jack is walking down the road, completely naked, He arrives at a burger shack and talks into the drive through speaker, still looking for his father. This is really where the show establishes his innocence. I like Jack, a lot! They found us a very good actor to play a very interesting character, and I couldnt be happier with him!  Moving forward, we have 2 angels that appear over Cas’s body and they have a short exchange that shockingly mirrored the opinions of the fandom over the summer. The one Angel says “Castiel deserved better” and the other Angel responded “No, he actually didnt”. I was like “Wow, have they read Tumblr?” This has been argued all summer between members of the Fandom. Now i dont really want to go scene by scene with this, so Ill skip over all the angel fighting and people being flung around and go right to Dean praying  He’s lost, he’s crushed, and hes hopeless. He’s pissed and tells God that he and Sam need help, they’re not good, and they want everyone back that theyve lost, Cas, Mom and Crowley (which I thought very odd he didnt mention Rowena, but maybe there was a point). Dean is an emotional person to start with, but Jensen portrayed him more broken than we’ve seen yet. I personally don’t think it stems solely on these most recent losses, but the huge pile of pain hes suffered in the last 12 years has beat him down and he’s tired.  Sam is also spun out. We know he’s going to be the more optimistic one, but Jared successfully portrayed in his face  that he is just as crushed as Dean, but he’s allowing himself the distraction of Jack. We know Sam, the king of sublimation, cover it up with something else, and dont deal. The funeral pyre scene was heart wrenching. Sam’s lines made me ugly snot cry “We say thank you, we say Im sorry, we hope they’re somewhere better, and we say goodbye” (paraphrased)  Ive seen some some folks a little annoyed with this scene, that it was too much since we know Cas will be back, but we werent supposed to know Cas would be back, that ball kinda got dropped by Jared early on when he made an honest mistake when talking about the Scooby episode. And also, this wasnt just about their most recent losses.it was about everything, where they are now, who they have become, and what theyve been through. As they watched the black smoke of the pyre rise up, I know they were grieving everyone.  I was deeply moved by this episode, and I thought it was fantastic! The best season opener yet by far! Jack is awesome, I cant wait to get to know him better. He is going to bring us some great TV.  On a scale from Bloodlines to Who We Are (Yes, Who We Are tops my list now) I am going to give Lost and Found a 9. My only complaint really is the lack of broments. There was plenty of banter, and it wasnt like the brothers were sidelined, its just we havent gotten to the support part yet. Im sure it’s coming, the “we can get through this” and even the arguing about Jack. I think the boys were just acting in the immediate situation and didnt have time to digest whats happened. Im sure its coming though.  Predictions: We know Cas will be back in ep 6. Misha confirmed on twitter that Cas will come back in full power, with all his memories, so he wont be human Cas or Amnesia Cas, he will be more like season 4 Cas. That being said, I dont think Cas is going to be as warm to the Winchesters as he has been. I believe that in full Angel mode, he going to want to kill Jack, like the other Angels wanted to. Maybe not right away, we may get a few episodes where it seems Team Free Will is alive and kicking with a welcomed new member, but down the road, Cas is going to turn on Jack and the boys when his Angelic instincts kick in. I dont know if we will know right away and it just be the boys that are in the dark, and Cas playing them to regain their trust before he tries to take Jack by saying he promised Kelly, or if it will be a kind of “great reveal” like we had other times when Cas was deceiving them, But I certainly dont think the brothers’s relationship with Cas is going to be rainbows and butterflies for long. I also think there is a strong possibility that Cas will want to kill Sam too, being an “abomination” himself. So my thougth is, dont let yourself think that this is going to be one big happy hunter family, because its not going to be. I also think when Lucifer comes back, and he will, he will get to Jack and influence him badly. Jack will turn on the boys also, but not permenantly, it will come back to him that Sam and Dean did take care of him and showed him love, Sam particularly.  I feel like this season is going to press the issue that when everything and everyone else crumbles and falls at their feet, that Sam and Dean have each other. And nothing else matters.
So close no matter how far Couldn't be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are And nothing else matters Never opened myself this way Life is ours, we live it our way All these words I don't just say And nothing else matters Trust I seek and I find in you Every day for us something new Open mind for a different view And nothing else matters Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know But I know

“Starstruck”
A/N: I don’t know what to do with this  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Summary: Reader’s rather horrible day takes a turn as she meets the two lead actors of her favorite show.
Characters: Jensen x College!Reader x Jared
Warnings: None
1030 Words
Tumblr media
Your eyes shot open the second you heard your familiar alarm by Asia. You instantly turned it off and checked the time. You groaned, if you didn’t leave in ten minutes, you’d be late for your last exam.
Quickly, you got yourself ready and dressed and prayed that you won’t be late so you could write the exam that you’ve studied so hard for.
Thankfully, you weren’t late, but that didn’t stop the rest of the day from not going your way.
The moment you got back to your small apartment after finishing your last exam, you had decided to take a relaxing shower, only to find it was freezing.
Then you wanted to have some microwavable dinner, but the electricity went out.
You snapped when you couldn’t find your phone anywhere, you had promised a week ago that you’d call your mom today.
God, you hate Tuesdays.
You looked outside. It wasn’t dark yet, and since you had spent some time in the library earlier today, you’d figured that's where you left your phone.
You walked in the library but stopped in your tracks at what you saw. A camera was pointed in your direction with a large crew behind it. You saw that the camera was filming two actors sitting at one of the tables, who looked like they were reading through books.
You backed away, hoping that you had gone unnoticed when the director shouted, “Cut! Why is there an extra in the shot?”
“Sorry I didn’t know you were filming. I’m a student here. I think lost my phone in here earlier.”
The director turns to the crew and mutters, thinking you won’t hear, “Didn’t know we were filming, my ass.”
But you did hear, and you turned bright red in frustration and embarrassment, “No, I just lost my phone in here earlier.”
“Fine. Just wait there until the shots over.”
You complied and the director yelled action, restarting the scene.
“Sam, I'm telling you, it’s a Vetala!”
“And I'm telling you, Dean, it’s a Vampire!”
You hadn’t been paying attention, but the names were all too familiar to you, and you looked onto the scene playing out in front of you.
The two actors being filmed were Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, otherwise known on your favorite show, Supernatural, as Sam and Dean.
You held back a squeal. You knew they filmed in Vancouver, but you had given up on the idea of meeting them, just because the idea seemed so impossible.
You took a couple of breaths, and looked on, biting back a smile.
After a second time of going through the scene, the director was satisfied, and you were free to search for your phone.
Jared walked over to you, and you couldn’t help but notice how tall he was in person, “Sorry, Bobby was a little touchy today. Long day on set.”
“No, it’s fine I get it. I just need to find my phone. I promised my mom I'd call her tonight and if I don’t-” You looked at Jared, suddenly realizing you were just rambling, and telling him things he probably doesn’t care about.
You were surprised that he actually didn’t look bored out of his mind, but then again, he is an actor.
Jared nodded in agreement and chuckled, “I know exactly what you mean. My mom is the same way. She makes her call her pretty much every other day and gets me to send her pictures of what I eat, so she sees it’s not just candy.”
You laughed, “But can’t you just send her pictures off of google?”
“That’s what I do! Most of the time, at least.” He grinned at you.
“So what’s your major?”
“English.”
“Really? Jay! Get over here.” Jared called to Jensen who seemed to have disappeared.
Jared turned back to you as Jensen made his way over. “Jensen loves poetry.”
You raised your eyebrows at this and looked at Jensen questionably. “You love poetry?”
“Oh yeah, even have a poem memorized by heart.”
“Okay, let’s hear it.”
With an entirely straight face, Jensen said, “Do you like green eggs and ham? I do not like them, Sam-I-Am. I do not like green eggs and ham.”
Jensen bowed proudly after saying, “It’s a classic.”
Your phone long forgotten, You and Jared applauded him while laughing, and you noticed how you felt so unusually comfortable with two people that you had just met.
Jared looked at you curiously as he had a sudden realization. “Wait, do you know who we are?”
You nodded slowly, not exactly sure where he was going with his question, “Jensen and Jared. Why?”
Jensen continued Jared’s thought, “Because you’re not freaking out or anything.”
You laughed knowing you had your fangirl moment earlier and that you would most definitely have another one after you got back to your apartment, “Do you want me to freak out? To hyperventilate and faint?”
Jensen and Jared shared a look, obviously remembering some past overly excited reactions from fans. “No thank you.”
You noticed this and were instantly curious. “Weirdest fan reaction?”
Jensen laughed to himself, remembering, “Oh, I got a good one. Jared and I were at a Mexican restaurant that’s known for its salsa and guac, and our waitress didn’t look up at us once. Until she brought our food over-”
You laughed, having an idea of where his story was going.
Jared finished the story for Jensen, “She saw us while carrying our food, and she screamed and dropped the tray, and so salsa and guac went everywhere. I think some even went on the ceiling.”
“That’s terrible! You guys didn’t even get to taste the salsa and guac!”
Jensen shook his head at your comment. “That’s what you take away from that? Really?”
Jared laughed, “She’s right. We should go back there and try that salsa and guac.”
Jensen grinned at you. “Got any dinner plans?”

Southern heatwaves
I’m sorry, I’m a total mess right now. All the pictures and stories of a certain convention made my brain do things… 😳 I couldn’t stop thinking about…that. So I wrote it down, otherwise my head might have exploded haha. Here is some strange piece…about two gorgeous man. Dean and Castiel… because you know, felt strange writing about “real” people. But let your imagination flow…..sorry in advance for typos and mistakes, wrote that very quickly. 😊
Southern heatwaves (1000 words) Destiel AU ficlet / (Warning: mature content) / AO3
Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak are actors. Whenever their schedule allows it, they participate in conventions all over the world. They are both in a releationship, but one can not deny a certain attraction they feel for each other. A chemistry, which drives their fandom crazy and they both feel like fish in the water when it comes to joking around together on stage.
One day, they were at a convention, far away from home, summer vibes hit the bella cittá like an invitation to a party and everyone was in a light and loose mood.
***
Fans were screaming and screeching as Dean told Castiel live on stage that he loves him; they found themselves in a tight embrace, a hundred spotlights made their forehead shine of sweat. Some minutes later, they landed on the floor, demonstrating a certain scene from the movie in which they play roles. Castiel settled himself above Dean, touching his throat as if he wanted to attack him. Seductively, Cas groaned into the microphone: “Ah, you like that, you sexy bitch!”
The crowd went crazy. Both actors laughing, Castiel helped Dean to stand up again. Dean felt a little shaky, but nothing he couldn’t handle.
They performed the convention of their lifetime.
***
Several hours later…
***
Knock knock knock.
Dean wondered who this might be. Maybe the room service?
“Comin’! One sec!” he shouted through the room.
He entered his suite 20 minutes ago, arranged his stuff and now he was just about to wash his face. Thinking about what actually happened on stage today. Hell, what was that. This city made him weak. The southern lifestyle tangled him since he got off the plane. Hot, vibrating, dolce vita. Totally detached from the ground. It was a long time ago, since he lost control like that. Dean rubbed his face dry with the fluffy towel and headed to the door. As he opened it, he couldn’t really say that he was surprised. In fact, he kinda hoped it was…
“Cas! What’s up man?” Castiel stood at the door, a slightly painful look on his face. “I… I just wanted to apologize, Dean. I may have exaggerated it earlier… I know you don’t really like the whole… ship-thing. But the fans…”
Dean cut him off, as he opened the door completely. “Wanna come in, Cas? Maybe not be best topic to discuss in the hallway.”
“..’K” Cas mumbled and pushed his way past Dean, into the room. Their upper arms touched briefly.
Dean closed the door and walked to the minibar. He turned his back to Castiel while preparing the drinks for them; whiskey, pure, on the rocks. “You know, you don’t have to apologize for anything Cas. There are always two included with this whole freaky convention thing… But I had a lot of fun, and we offered the fans a great show, so I’d say it was a great…”
He turned around, only to almost clash with Castiel, who suddenly stood way too close to Dean.
“…success”, he finished quite breathlessly.
There they stood, in awkward silence, felt like hours, Dean still holding the two glasses with the golden liquid. Cas looked very serious, chin a little raised, his expression was expectant. Dean’s gaze – usually aimed at the other’s insanly blue eyes – slipped downwards to Cas’ lips, which were slightly pink and dry. And seductive.
‘SHIT.’ Dean thought, while he forced his brain to work again. “Wanna have a drink?” was the best thing he brought out. He could feel the heat inside him rising.
Castiel slowly took the glass out of Dean’s hand, sipped, but didn’t move an inch. “It’s been a long time, Dean…”
Hell, this lead in a direction, Dean thought he was completely over it. He took a big gulp of the whiskey, only ice cubes remaining in the glass.
‘Fuck it all’, his slightly drunk brain whispered on and on. With a loud clink, he put the empty glass on the table next to him.
His arms moved automatically, his hands hovered on both sides of Castiel’s cheeks. And then, Dean gently touched him, looked deep in his eyes, head between his palms.
“You have no idea…” he swallowed hard. Afraid to drown in the blueish endlessness, he knew he had to keep talking.
“You have no idea, how long I have worked on myself to forget that night years ago. When I realized that I never really could, I accepted it. As a crazy, drunk one-night-stand. And now you’re standing here. Doing this to me – again.”
Cas held absolutely still.
How beautiful he is. That was when Dean’s brain finally shut down.
He leaned forward and lips crashed upon lips; hard, rough, yearning. Cas’ hands gripped his waistband and pulled him closer.
“And you have no idea, how much I missed you.” Castiel growled deeply as he tried to get some air between the hungry kisses. Tongues fought for dominance. Dean’s legs suddenly bumped against the edge of the bed.
As they broke away from each other, Dean put his hands underneath the collar of Cas’ jacket, slowly brushing it over his shoulders.
“My god, you make me dizzy…” Dean ran a hand through his hair, before dropping onto the bed, looking up to this adorable man. With shaky fingers, he fumbled on Castiel’s belt buckle and released him from his pants.
They settled on the bed, Castiel hovering above Dean, just like earlier on the stage. “Fuck, Cas, I had to concentrate so hard to not get a boner as you crawled over me earlier…” Dean wondered why he was still able to speak in full sentences.
However, this was his last coherent thought, because now Castiel laid his wonderful hands on Dean’s steadily growing bulge and growled in his deepest voice: “Oh yeah, me too. But now we’re alone… and hell yes, I like it when you’re getting hard for me.” He kissed him again, their bodies colliding in the heat of overwhelming desire.

1. JANUARY
WENN/FayesVision
2018 had a rather bleak start with Mark Salling’s death of suicide by hanging on Tuesday, January 30. The actor, who was known for his role as Noah “Puck” Puckerman on FOX’s musical series “Glee“, was found lifeless, hanging from a tree near a riverbed in Sunland, the area where he lived.
His death arrived as he awaited sentencing after he was pleading guilty to possession pornography. Prior to his passing Mark allegedly attempted to commit suicide in the bedroom of his L.A. home before he freaked out and called his roommate for help.
Following news of his passing, a slew of his former “Glee” co-stars paid tribute to him on social media. Among them were Matthew Morrison, Iqbal Theba and vocal arranger Tim Davis.
2. FEBRUARY
Instagram
Contrary to last month, February brought an exciting news. Kylie Jenner shocked everyone by dropping a major bombshell. After it was long-speculated that she was pregnant with her first child with boyfriend Travis Scott (II), the “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” star finally confirms the rumors on February 4.
Taking to Instagram, the makeup mogul announced the arrival of her daughter Stormi Webster. The baby was born on February 1st.
“I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark through all the assumptions,” Kylie told online devotees. “I understand you are used to me bringing you along and all my journeys. My pregnancy was one I chose not to do in front of the world. I knew for myself I needed to prepare for this role of a life time in the most positive stress free and healthy way I knew how.”
3. MARCH
ABC
Spring means a new season of “The Bachelor“. This year’s season though, might be different from the previous ones and one could argue that it might be the most controversial season in the franchise’s history.
Arie Luyendyk Jr., who was pointed as the leading man of season 22 of the ABC dating show, was dubbed the most hated Bachelor after he publicly dumped fiancee and winner Becca Kufrin for the runner-up, Lauren Burnham.
The race car driver met up with Becca a couple weeks after getting engaged during the finale. Becca initially thought they were going to spend the weekend together but it turned out they met up because Arie wanted to call things off with her as he still had feelings for Lauren.
“I felt like the more I was hanging out with you the more I was losing the chance of reconciling with her,” Arie told a shocked Becca. “We left Peru and I didn’t want to be as honest with you about how conflicted I was.”
Arie is now happily engaged to Lauren and is planning to have their wedding next year.
4. APRIL

Actress Allison Mack, who is known for her role as Chloe Sullivan on “Smallville“, made headlines after news of her getting arrested for alleged sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy and forced labor conspiracy broke. She was indicted for an alleged leading role in the NXIVM sex cult, which leader Keith Raniere was arrested late last month in Mexico.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Eastern District of New York, both Mack and Reniere were accused of branding their victims and forcing them to participate in sex acts through the various self-help programs that Raniere established within his umbrella organization, NXIVM. Mack was allegedly “one of the women in the first level of the pyramid immediately below Raniere.”
Following the arrest, fellow actress Samia Shoaib revealed that she was approached by Mack as she tried to lure her into the twisted world of the alleged sex cult. The Pakistan-born actress alleged that Mack sent her overly friendly and frantic emails in attempt to get her in a “women’s circle” back in March 2013.
While Mack didn’t seem like a bad person, Shoaib said that one email stuck out to her the most. “Thank you for last night! I had a lovely time with you and [your friend]. You are both delicious women,” Mack allegedly wrote in an email after their final dinner in the same year.
5. MAY
WENN/Dutch Press Photo
One of the biggest weddings in 2018 arrived in May when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle officially tied the knot on Saturday, May 19 at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle. Followed by 10 bridesmaids and page boys, including Harry’s four-year-old nephew Prince George and three-year-old niece Princess Charlotte, the former “Suits” actress walked up the steps of the church in an exquisite white dress with flowing train and long lace veil designed by Givenchy artistic director Clare Waight Keller. She completed her stunning bride look with the Queen Mary Diamond Bandeau Tiara, made in 1932 and borrowed from Queen Elizabeth II.
In the procession, which was attended by famous figures including Abigail Spencer, Priyanka Chopra, James Corden, Amal and George Clooney among others, Prince Charles replaced Meghan’s father Thomas Markle to walk her down the aisle. Thomas was unable to attend the nuptials since he was suffering from health issues.
During the ceremony, which was conducted by Dean of Windsor David Conner, U.S. Bishop Michael Curry made a passionate address while the guests were treated to a gospel rendition of 1961 song “Stand by Me” by Karen Gibson and The Kingdom Choir. Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, officiated the marriage vows, with Harry and Meghan then exchanging wedding bands.
One of the sweet moments from the nuptials was when the camera caught Harry whispering to his bride, stating the words, “You look amazing.” The happy couple later announced in October that they are expecting their first child together.

Kate committed suicide after suffering from depression and anxiety for many years, according to an official statement released on Wednesday, June 6. “She was actively seeking help and working closely with her doctors to treat her disease, one that takes far too many lives.

Fans were shocked on July 24 after it was reported that Demi Lovato was rushed to the hospital in Los Angeles for a suspected drug overdose. Law enforcement said Demi, who has been open about her struggles with substance abuse for years, was treated with Narcan, an emergency treatment to reverse the effects of a narcotic overdose.
The “Heart Attack” hitmaker was later revealed to be “awake and with her family” following the near-fatal health scare. “Demi is awake and with her family who want to express thanks to everyone for the love, prayers and support,” her rep said in a statement. “Some of the information being reported is incorrect and they respectfully ask for privacy and not speculation as her health and recovery is the most important thing right now.”
Taking to Instagram to address her condition in August, the “Cool for the Summer” singer said, “I want to thank God for keeping me alive and well,” before thanking her fans. “I am forever grateful for all of your love and support throughout this past week and beyond. Your positive thoughts and prayers have helped me navigate through this difficult time. I want to thank my family, my team, and the staff at Cedars-Sinai who have been by my side this entire time. Without them I wouldn’t be here writing this letter to all of you.”
8. AUGUST
WENN/Nikki Nelson
Alongside Rose McGowan, Asia Argento was one of MeToo movement activists after she accused disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment in October 2017. However, things took a twisted turn after it was reported that the “XXX” star was involved in a sexual assault scandal of her own.
Actor and musician Jimmy Bennett claimed that the actress sexually harassed him when he was only 17 in 2013. According to the document, the two, who played mother and son respectively in “The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things“, met at the Ritz-Carlton in Marina del Rey with Bennett’s family member before the “Marie Antoinette” actress asked for sometime alone with the actor. The mother of two then gave him alcohol and kissed him. Afterward, she gave him an oral sex before they had a sexual intercourse.
It was also mentioned in the document that the sexual encounter with Argento was so traumatic for Bennett that it affected his mental health, career and income. It reportedly left him feeling “extremely confused, mortified, and disgusted.” The “Poseidon” actor later sued the Italian actress and director for $3.5 million in damages for the intentional infliction of emotional distress, lost wages, assault and battery.
It was revealed that Argento then paid $380,000 to Bennett in November 2017 as a part of the agreement. In exchange, Bennet had to give a picture of him and the actress in bed along with its copyright to Argento.

The world lost one of talented souls in September. Rapper Mac Miller was found lifeless from an apparent drug overdose in his San Fernando Valley home on September 7. He was 26.
The tragic news comes just months after his breakup with singer Ariana Grande, who was engaged to comedian and “Saturday Night Live” star Pete Davidson” at that time.
The “Swimming” spitter previously shared his concern in an interview, saying, “was not happy and I was on lean very heavy.” Miller added, “I was so f**ked up all the time it was bad. My friends couldn’t even look at me the same. I was lost.”
Despite his passing, friends and fellow musicians are trying to keep his music and legacy with the launch of Mac Miller Circles Fund, a new foundation meant to help provide resources and programming for arts education in underserved communities. The foundation was launched at a benefit concert called “Mac Miller: A Celebration of Life” on October 31 at Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, which featured performances from Travis Scott (II), SZA, Chance the Rapper, Miguel, Ty Dolla $ign and more.

2018 is indeed a hard year for Ariana Grande. The “God Is a Woman” singer has yet to emotionally recover from the trauma she had from the bombing attack at her Manchester in 2017, and she had to face the harsh reality when one of her ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller, died in suicide. The emotional struggle apparently took a toll on her whirlwind relationship with Pete as it was reported that they decided to call off their engagement in October.
It was said that the “Sweetener” singer thought “this wasn’t the right time for them.” While Pete was understandably heartbroken over this, he knew that this is the best for them.
However, they were allegedly not ruling out any possibility of getting back together as the two are still pretty much in love with each other. “They have a very special connection, partly because Pete has been there for Ariana during a painful time in her life. She will forever and always be grateful to Pete,” a source claimed. “They felt constantly under a microscope. They felt that they literally had no privacy and it really took a toll on their relationship,” said a source.

Cardi B surprised fans when she announced her and husband Offset‘s split on late Tuesday, December 4 via Instagram. In a video, the “Bodak Yellow” hitmaker admitted people had been “bugging” her about their relationship before she finally decided to address it in the clip.
“I’ve been trying to work things out with my baby father,” she said, before confirming, “We’re not together anymore.” Claiming that they’ve “got a lot of love for each other,” she said they would remain “good friends” and “good business partners.” She added, “He’s always somebody that I run to … to talk to.”
While she didn’t detail the reason of their separation, Cardi shared, “Things haven’t been just working out between us for a long time. It’s nobody’s fault. We just grew out of love,” hinting that their split was amicable. “It may take time to get a divorce,” she added, before ending it by saying, “And I’m gonna always have a lot of love for him, because he is my daughter’s father.”
The shocking bombshell arrived after reports of the Migos rapper tried to cheat on Cardi again with another female rapper emerged. A woman claimed the rapper, whose real name is Kiari Cephus, wanted to have a threesome with Cuban Doll and her friend.
Cardi and Offset later sparked reconciliation rumors after they were spotted vacationing together in Puerto Rico just a week after the former announced their split. However, the “Money” spitter clarified that she didn’t get back together with Offset. “I just had to get fucked. That’s all,” the Bronx rapper slyly said in an Instagram video.

A few things before you read chapter one of my story.
The first horror novel I read was Stephen King's Salems Lot, it scared a ten year old me and the three movies based on the book, one adaptation in 1979 and a sequel in name only in 1987 and a remake/adaptation in 2004 were scarey as well. Darkness is in a way my love letter to that book, this is a first draft. Enjoy.
Authors note:
During the writing of this I lost my wife who was in poor health,I found myself a single father with no direction, I was lost but then I met a woman who helped me pick up the peices of my life and I helped her in turn with hers, katy has been an angel to me . I am an extremely lucky man,how many people find true love twice? So it is to the two women who have in their own special way shaped my life, to clara who helped make me the man I am today and for her love,she will always be missed and to katy who has saved me from the dark,loves me as hard as she can and puts up with me........katy you are my angel and I am forever thankful that the God lord brought us together, he saw two broken people and knew that we could mend each others hearts. I love you baby.
Darkness
The house was older than dirt almost, built back in the coal camp days of West Virginia, it once belonged to the mine superintendent but that had been close to one hundred years ago and needless to say the house needed repair but the current owner either did not care or was not able to do the upkeep and in reality it was both thus the house looked abandoned and in reality almost was.
If one were to enter the home they would at first glance think that the owner was a hoarder ,newspapers yellowed with age and bundled together with twine covered most surfaces as did old movie magazines with the smiling faces of actors long dead, yes the owner was a hoarder but only a hoarder of her past.
Gloria Hallow sat on her bed, scattered on it was pictures some old, some new, her aged hands moved over them as if she was unsure about which one to choose, passed over were pictures of a younger her posing with Cary Grant and Henry Fonda, she picked up a picture of a young man, the Picture was newer, the man was mildly handsome, wearing jeans and a Ratt t shirt holding a hard cover book and looking proud, Gloria smiled, the picture was her son John who was one of the few things in her life that she did not regret, what she did regret was poor career choices that took her from a list movies to b list movies and then to stage work and cameos on love boat in the 80s, her last role had been in an episode of ER Almost twenty years ago but now at age eighty she could look back on those days and smile, they had been fun,well mostly fun except for that time in Romania back in the 60s when she played Lucy in a poor attempt to film a honest adaptation of Dracula..... The film was considered the second worst movie ever made after plan nine from outer space.
'That's where the trouble started.' She thinks and at the thought her eyes go to the old weathered box on her lap.
"Yes" she mutters "that was where it begun"
She knew what was in the box and its content terrified her and she knew that she couldn't protect it anymore, she was too old, the terrors it caused her had taken its toll on her,her career and her family, the box protected it but any box could be opened and this box should never be opened, it was a Pandora's box. There was those who wanted it,needed it and they had found her despite her best efforts and she couldn't fight them off not at her age.
The first signs of her being found began a few weeks ago with phone calls, the caller said nothing then there was the scratches on the sides of the house, she could hear the scratching now,they began always after dark.
They couldn't just take the box,she had to willingly give it to them,there was rules and she feared that she would give it to them just to end it all,that was why she had the 38 special and that was why she slowly took it and placed the barrel into her mouth, she did not pray,she did not cry, soon the box would be some one else's problem, at that she did pray for her son,he would need it.
She pulled the trigger and all was gone,her past brushes with stardom, her fears and the weight of what that box contained which was not her weight to bare anymore. the box fell to the floor along with her body,a silent witness to her death although she would have called it an escape.
Chapter One
John Hallow was uncomfortable, no not that he was bored . He always was in situations like this. What was the situation? One of the worst in John's mind. He was on a PBS show called adeptly Book Reader. Next to him in a plush leather seat in front of a faux reading room facade was Mary Shields the foremost expert on all genre of books...on PBS she was anyway, she was beyond geriatric, had hosted the show for over thirty years and with her vain attempts to look younger she. Looked like a. Mummy dressed in a power suite covered in jewelry, she was nice enough but she rarely had horror genre authors on because she simply loathed the genre unless the horror novel was written by Stephen King and despite early in his career being compared to Stephen King John was not King, John was a indie author who's first three novels were hits and thus he was now signed with a publisher.
His newest novel Dead West,a novel vampire novel set in the old west was both being torn apart and praised by Mary. john glanced at Danni his agent who stood off camera, she smiled meekly as if to say "sorry,this was the best I could get to promote the book."
John loved Danni and she had been his agent for years but they were going to have to have talk about book promotion.
"While I am impressed by the research you put into the book," Mary said "your style does tend to show your amateur back ground."
John inwardly growled he wanted to tell her that this was his fourth book ,he was far from a amateur and she could take that holier than thou attitude and shove it up her brown hole, but what he did say with a clearly forced smile was.
"I don't think that the style is amateurish." He replied " Every writer grows as he or she writes, dean knootz is not the same writer today that he was when Watchers was published,so I would have to disagree with you on that statement."
Off camera danni beamed a smile at John. He had taken the right approach with the high and mighty Mary shields.
"I also understand that your second novel Ghoul is being made into a movie." Mary said changing the subject, it did not escape john that she had said Ghoul like someone would say sewage. "You must be excited."
"Yes." John said " its exciting to see something that I created being turned into a film."
"Yes I bet it is." Mary said in a tone teachers use for their special students "although most books poorly transition to film."
"I wrote the screenplay." john defended " and one of the top genre directors is attached to it."
"Well.." Mary stated " the film should be a blockbuster movie that will forever change lives."
John had enough and was about to say a few things that would end up getting him banned from PBS and probably all TV when he saw Danni on her cell phone and it did not look good, worry and shock covered her face like a mask suddenly John was very uncomfortable, thankfully Mary wrapped up the program.
"Thank you for joining me for Book Talk," Mary said beaming a fake TV smile "I assume that you can find Mr Hallow's other books in book stores online and physical."
The camera man motioned that they were off the air and Mary turned to him.
"I can not believe the slop your publisher sends me." She said with contempt "honestly your books are little more than bloody porn."
John looked at Danni who was motioning for john to come her way he then looked at Mary.
"There are many things I could say to you," john almost growled "but I won't because what you call slop is how i make a living but I will leave you with this...that sloop...my books have made me money and while you tear apart horror novels they are flying off the shelves so I guess thousands of my fans trump your views on the genre."
John stood up and left before a very shocked looking Mary could say another word and made his way to Danni who was looking worried, maybe the movie deal had fell through, john could have cared less about the movie but it had been Danni's baby, she had fought hard for it.
Danni Wynn was a cute ,short bundle of energy that made her the perfect agent,she didn't just go to bat for her clients,she went to war and once many moons ago they had been lovers but not for the last few years, Danni had moved on with a marriage and two kids,she always wore a smile but her frown looked as out of place as a man at a lesbian convention.
"What's wrong?" John asked expecting to hear that the movie deal was off.
Danni said nothing for several moments as she looked at John like she was not certan of what to say .
"Your mother." Danni softly said "she's dead"
It felt like a blow to his soul,john felt his legs go weak, he had not spoken to her in months,not because of a fight but life happened,writing a screenplay while finishing his new book had taken all of his time.......the woman that had dragged him from movie set to movie set when he was a child till settling down in a middle of nowhere West Virginia town was gone.
"How...?" John croaked as he felt tears beginning
"I don't know." She replied. "I spoke to your aunt."
"Aunt Margret" john said
"Yeah,she wants you to call her," Danni said "listen,I can cancel the book signings so you can go home."
"Yeah." John said his mind else where
"I'll book the flight." Danni stated
"No." John sharply said " I don't fly...I'll drive it."
Then john realized the tone he took, it made him sound like a asshole which john could be but not now.
"I'm sorry Danni" he said
"Its alright,I forgot you hate to fly.," danni said "but its going to be a long drive you know."
"Its fine." John said " I can use it to clear my mind."
Danni hugged him which took John by surprise, she was not know for any display of affection,she wasnt a vulcan but Danni was not known for hugs.
"I'm sorry john." She said softly "I really am."
Danni handed john her cell phone.
"Your aunt's number is on the phone call her." Danni said
At that john left.
2
The phone rang and rang, john considered hanging up
"Hello?" Came an answer
"Aunt Margo?"'john asked
" johnny?" Came the reply " oh johnny it is you!"
John was fighting back the army of tears that he knew was coming but his voice ....his voice contained all the hurt.
"What happened to mom?"
There was a silence on the other end to the extent that John thought maybe the call had been dropped.
"She......" Margo began, her voice suddenly breaking "killed herself honey....."
