A scene that broke your heart 

“So I went to an old friend for help. But watching him… I stopped. Everything he sacrificed, and I was about to ask him for more”

“Where were you when I need it to hear it?” “I was there. Where were you?”

I can’t believe Edlund is leaving the show :(

Something that made you believe in them

Season 8.

You know that trope where you have two people who obviously have tension but at first one of them is in love/attracted to the other but apparently their love is unrequited, and then some time later the other one starts to develop feelings  but then the former is the one who seems to be unavailable? (see Ross/Rachel or Joey/Rachel in Friends, for example).

Something like this has happened with Dean & Cas this season. I’ve loved them as a couple since the beginning, but I always thought Castiel’s love for Dean was pretty unrequited, or at least, it wasn’t at the same level. And then season 5 happened and Dean started to treat Cas like shit.

All I wanted was to see Dean showing that he cared for Cas, that he was something more than a mean to help him and/or Sammy. When season 8 started I was pleasently surprised with the Purgatory scenes because for the first time Dean showed that he needed Cas in an emotional level, not just a practical one. He was willing to stay and probably die there if Cas didn’t go with him.

In fact, Dean has changed so much this season -has evolved so much- that I, like many others, have started to feel legitimate hope that Destiel is gonna be canon some day. Dean is now, for the most part, patient, understanding and caring with Cas. He’s told him that he needs him, that he cares about him. He wants Cas to stay with him. And we all know the “I need you” that broke the Naomi control was an “I love you”.

(Not to mention all the parallels, winks, almost-text-subtext…)

So, yes, thanks to season 8 I’m fairly optimistic that they are going to end together at the end. They deserve it after everything they’ve been through.
