like, why are destiel shippers so obsessed with the idea of dean seeing cas’s true form though?
dean has already seen cas’s wings twice (or at least a manifestation of them) and both times his reaction was being freaked out and not in a good way. dean in general does not like angels, projects his feelings about them onto cas and cannot comprehend that they are cas’s family and that he loves and cares about them, and has virtually never supported any of cas’s endeavors with them. even when lucifer was possessing cas, dean couldn’t acknowledge the fact that cas is an angel and that while his vessel is his body and it does belong to him at the same time he is not actually that vessel but a being inhabiting it. even jensen has outright said that cas is “unnatural” and that because cas is an angel, isn’t human that it’s “tricky” for dean to relate to someone like that and that it’s like relating to a “monster.”
like, if dean saw cas’s true form, he wouldn’t be impressed or in awe or in love. if anything, he’d probably be disgusted.
That last bit just reminds me that any time Cas tried to do things the “human way” like when he tried to be a hunter, and broke off from being an angel, Dean would just mock/make fun of him. After he officially became human, Dean discouraged him from doing anything in the supernatural (after making fun of the life he scraped together when Dean kicked him out). I really don’t think the Winchesters are that interested in their “brother™” Cas.
lol and now this is also just reminding me of how at this past JIB Misha said that Cas is still full of self-loathing and doubt and that he never really believes he’s worthy or wanted but then also said that Cas felt like part of the family more than ever this season. Even though he was only treated with reverence and respect when he was dead and when a demon was poorly impersonating him for weeks yet SamnDean couldn’t even tell the difference.
friendly reminder that all of dean’s nicknames for cas have been insulting and that endverse!cas points this out himself by saying “i thought you’d gotten over trying to label me”
(also friendly reminder that when other characters call cas things like “your angel” it’s cas being dehumanized and objectified and that it’s not some cutesy shipper moment but an insult to cas)
Dean saying Jack is family means a whole lot of nothing, considering just earlier in the same episode he assumed the worst that Jack had killed an innocent person and was thinking out loud yet again they will have to kill Jack. Dean’s sudden change of heart being #TeamJack is only because Jack can get Mary back. Dean considers Jack family only on the basis of what Jack can do for him. It’s the same exact way he treats Castiel. Castiel is family when Dean finds him useful, and he’s cast aside when he becomes an inconvenience.
They are beings who have rules to follow and hey have been since the beginning of time. It wasn’t till the Winchesters came around and fucked with everything that stand for. Not to mention how many countless angels died because of them. The boys have broke heaven with Breaking in to Ash’s and Pamela’s, to aiding with Metatrons manipulation. The Winchester have done so much wrong for heaven and I agree they shouldn’t go to heaven because of how awful they’ve treated the angels, who do nothing but help or are against them because he angels are saving the world from their co-dependency.
