Me and @autisticandroids were having a back-and-forth the other day about Cas, Jack, and Kelly. And the most intense tonal shift happened in the middle of it. I wanted to share it, so I took our concepts and ran with it:
Cas suggests that he possess Kelly during her labor to help her survive.
They succeed, and both Jack & Kelly are safe and healthy. (Jack still grows up fast like in canon btw)
HOWEVER, Cas can't go back to his body because there's no soul in there to consent. (I know that Cas' body is technically his and not Jimmy's anymore but indulge the idea for a second.)
Kelly and TFW now pass Cas around while they raise Jack. They have schedules for "possession duties" and everything while they look for a way to bring Cas back to his body.
We can go insane about the Cas-possessing-Dean scenario for another time but the important thing here is Kelly.
I don't know who initiates it, but Dean and Cas DO have sex while the latter is in Kelly's body. (Kelly is okay with it because frankly she simply CANNOT stand the longing and shit. Actually I think it would be funny if KELLY initiates it.)
Before they know it, they have another nephil to deal with. (Except this time it's not an apocalyptic threat because it's sired by a powered-down seraph instead of an archangel. No one in heaven even notices its conception.)
Kelly!Cas gives birth, AGAIN. Jack now has a little brother ❤️ (we haven't decided on a name yet. He grows slower than Jack but he tries his best to catch up to his big bro)
They find a way to bring Cas back to his body.
Most of the canon plot unfolds the same except there's an extra child there and also Mary is there because we said so. Dean also exhibits less toxic behavior towards Jack because Kelly, Mary, and Cas are there to call him out on his shit.
The SPICY things start to happen when Jack ends up accidentally killing both Kelly and Mary. He still loses his soul btw
To those familiar with my spn mpreg rewrite, y'all know that I love giving Jack siblings in order to like. Mess him up more.
Dean definitely treats Jack's baby brother waaaaayyyy better than him. This of course gives Jack soooo many problems disorders.
Think of Jack and his lil bro as the reversal of Dean and Sam's dynamic. (You might see where we're going with this.)
Okay. Imagine how diabolical "Jack in the Box" is when they lock up Jack in front of a young and gullible child. It adds to Dean and Sam's credibility (like. Jack goes: they wouldn't betray me in front of my little brother right?)
Okay. Imagine the kid overhearing the adults arguing about the gun. Imagine Dean looking at the kid and having something click in his head.
A nephil cannot survive without its grace, but it CAN survive without a soul. If the Equalizer carves out a piece of the shooter's soul, then if the shooter is a nephil...
Imagine Dean talking to the kid privately and handing him the gun. "You have to kill Jack. That's not your big brother anymore." Imagine a father who doesn't have the guts to shoot his own son, so he leaves the task to his other son.
Imagine Chuck enjoying all of this unfold. Hey, if he can't get his Cain and Abel story from Dean and Sam, he might as well get it from the young ones.
Imagine a little boy looking up at his big brother, his eyes wet and his hands trembling as he's pointing the gun at Jack.
Imagine Jack kneeling so that he's eye level with his little brother. Imagine him saying: "I understand."
Imagine if Cas named the kid Dean Jr. so that in the end, it's still "Dean" who ends up shooting Jack. Who ever said that "Abraham and Isaac" and "Cain and Abel" had to be separate stories?
(Besides, if Dean ever did kill Sam, then he would be killing both a brother and a son. The two stories have always entangled in the show.)
Imagine the three arriving at the cemetery a bit too late.
Imagine if two bullets were fired that day. (If the gun kills both target and user, then what happens when those two are the same?)
Imagine if they have to mourn not one, but two sons that day.
Imagine Cas having no one left for him.
Anyways, when I said my brain only has two modes ("How do I fix this?" vs. "How do i make this Worse?"), this is what I meant lol. From a "haha what if cas had to cohabitate with kelly for a while" to "hey what if we make cas mourn two sons" real quick
