What happened on SPN now? I don't even watch but I gotta know. Did they murder Cas and immediately pair Dean with a lady
HAA that’s gonna be the million dollar question isn’t it? because we still have two episodes left to go
i have not watched the newest season yet so i only have the vague details, but the short version is cas made a deal with a place called the empty (which has gotten the nickname of super hell eventho it’s more like an afterlife of total nothingness for angels & demons). he did it bc something something about sacrificing himself for the ones he cares about/the world in their battle against god and a few other bad guys yanno the usual EXCEPT the actual crux of this deal was that he would be taken at the moment he experiences true happiness which is where we’re getting this confession scene. again don’t know the full details (YET other than charlie who’s not dead and sam lost their canon love interests too), but purely speaking about That Scene, it’s... really pretty much exactly what he’s saying lol. it’s a buildup of cas’s entire character arc on the 11 seasons he’s been on the show, about how much dean (and sam and jack) have changed him, how dean is a Much better and caring and wonderful person that he thinks he is, and straight up telling dean he loves him. and most importantly, just knowing/being content with this information is enough for him to be happy. it’s a twofer bc cas comes from a place heaven where feeling anything towards humanity is a big no-no, he’s come over many obstacles (lobotomy, brainwashing, i can go on) to be at the place where he is now and additionally cas makes it sound like regardless of that he thinks his love for dean is unreciprocated which! !! we know is not true!
so anyways cas confesses that he Loves him while dean is having a 404 do not exist error.exe moment* and tells dean goodbye while pushing him out of the way and almost immediately gets taken away to the empty afterlife, time will tell if he’s able to bust out again a second time. maybe with the help of all the other big name angels & demons that have died over the course of the show? they are going against god now (tho for my money? i sure hope he does LOL)
*speaking of dean’s 404 moment, i sort of have one foot in the s/p/n fandom and the other foot in the memer’s side of things and while the jokes are funny, the further i get into my (re)watch the more i’m believing that it’s actually... rather in character for him to react the way he did. we Know he’s so emotionally repressed and constipated that it takes an entire business week to process only one thing cas said, let alone all of it, and i think it’s incredibly telling that he doesn’t fully break down and sob until after cas is gone (he even ignored sam’s phone call! he never does that!). he was doing his best to hold it in. all of these people saying “lol dean no homo’d it” feels like they’re jumping the gun, personally. jensen acted that script to the letter (shock, confusion, basically communicating “don’t tell me this if you’re just gonna leave”) and i am really banking on us the viewers getting a more in-depth reaction this or next week. hopefully.
OH OH I HAVE ONE MORE THING I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT TOO
