It’s the weirdest thing, I’ve read so much destiel fanfic, I confuse reality with canon lmao just the other day I thought Dean gave a mixtape in canon
Yeah or one time I actually thought Cas had said I love you to Dean on his deathbed… silly me
For the longest time I could’ve sworn there was an episode where Dean only had hours to live and his one objective was to see Cas before he ran out of time. I wanna say they sat in the backseat of a car together?
Oh man, and I was convinced there was this time when this angel called Dean Cas’s “human weakness” and paralleled Dean with this lady he had been obsessively in love with. Damn, it must have been a really solid fic. I wish I could remember the name though…
I read this one angsty fic where Cas was killed in battle and while Sam ran off to deal with the aftermath, Dean just collapsed next to Cas’ body because he couldn’t remember how to function. But don’t worry, I’m sure the author is just exaggerating their totally platonic dude bro relationship. It’s not like the show would ever ACTUALLY do that. I think it was titled “All Along the Watchtower” by AO3 user Andrew_Dabb if you guys are interested.
Remember that really cute one where they were married husbands and bickered the entire fic and Sam was awkwardly caught in the middle of their domestic feud, but in the end Dean apologized and let Cas know he wasn’t really mad at him, he was just worried. So funny and sweet!
Omg yeah! I remember that fic! That was such a good one! And the other fics too!
Huh, wasn’t there this one fic where this random old lady who helped with the case that Sam and Dean were in told Dean that…hm, that I think she said that after all the years she was on the road was when somebody was pining over for somebody else? I think she kinda pointed at Dean at the end, and Dean denied it and acted confused by that, but then she was all hippie and grandmotherly-like with her telling Dean to “follow his heart”? And Dean was just pining over Cas and worrying over him ‘cause he was possessed by Lucifer despite the fact that he was attached to the Darkness, I think? Yeah, man, that was such a good fic, ‘cause not only it had good characterization, but there were so many parallels and dialogue like man, wow. I don’t think the show would ever do the that, cuz like ‘no homo’ but yeah, man, I wanted that to happen so badly!
What about the one where Dean thought Cas was dead or something and kept seeing him, like Sam did with Jess after she died! And then he finds out Cas isn’t really dead, but he’s escaped from IDK, prison or somewhere, and he’s all filthy and shaggy. I STG the bit where Dean first sees him all cleaned up was SO HOT, HOLY SHIT, even though Cas was in his trenchcoat and suit jacket and you couldn’t see anything.
*sigh* They’d NEVER give us anything like that in canon, dammit.
I could SWEAR I read a fic that had Dean and Cas sitting at a table, right before they were gonna go out to face some big bad of some kind (an archangel, maybe?), and Dean used his best pick up line on Cas… but Dean also said something about Bert and Ernie being gay and Cas wouldn’t die a virgin… geez what was the name of that fic again?
oh there was one i read, i can’t remember the name off the top of my head, but the angels realized how strong dean and cas’s bond is and made cas kill thousands of deans so he would be broken enough to fight as an angel again… but even with all that training, he couldn’t kill the real dean. in fact, dean is who broke the connection!! i wish they could do something like that in canon
