2. he's been forced to pick up other people's shit his whole life

3. the start of his hell torture was being mauled to death by hellhounds

Cas is - he’s gone. He’s dead. We run the show now. Oh, this is going to be so much fun.

and his own vendetta against michael is barely taken seriously by both the writers and the fandom bc there’s never any real room for it bc we HAD to have michael-dean (which was also failed). he tells cas yes, he is actually willing to kill dean if it means preventing another apocalypse world from being created, and the fact that he was tortured by the guy and waged a war against him pretty much singlehandedly should’ve carried more weight than it does. cas frankly should’ve understood it more than he did but instead it’s turned into “nuuuu don’t hurt my husbando •^•” and jack is like. being a disobedient toddler or some shit.

take my hand. play the supernatural interactive website with me

this is yet another thing i found out about through the 2005 supernatural forum when they started talking about passwords they needed for unlocking stuff

once upon a time when you visited supernatural.warnerbros.com you were greeted with this point and click game (?) thingy that was updated as season 1 was premiering, with new stuff being added periodically. for example, the key on the floor, the metal safe and the notepad weren't there in the earliest save of this website on internet archive.

as far as i can tell, the website was created on october 1st 2005, but the earliest messages about it on the forum that i could find are from november 5th 2005.

the combination to open impala's trunk is 11-2-83, which is the hint dean gave on his voicemail when you called him before 'home' premiered

john's journal has been in the game since the beginning, but new pages were being added every couple days/weeks, according to the forum.

i clicked on john's journal last in the video, because that part of the game hasn't been saved by internet archive and the game crashes, sadly, but later on i found a catalogue with all of the pages in it on spn wiki. scans of the pages, transcription of john's 1983 journal

one of the mysteries john's journal provided was, 'what is the significance of 1246?'

a while later the key to open the glove box appeared

(note the SEX:F on sam's driver's license, of course. but also the fact that it was issued in california...)

the laptop, according to WB's official description of the season 1 DVD, is dean's! but the files inside it are sam's.

and what are the files inside it? well, on the video you can see two, but there are actually three. we'll get there

'research links' brings up actual paranormal lore blogs, not created by the production team, as far as i can tell, just by regular people on 2005's internet

site links from the bottom up. ghosts2

stories/ghost

newspage126

2005's wendigo page on wikipedia

and um.... aaevp dot com... which isn't archived, so i don't know if it was a real site. if it was, it probably belonged to the American Association of Electronic Voice Phenomena

but now, well. the site looks like this

SAD!

'hunter's blogs' is locked, and the password to open it was one of the bonuses on the season 1 DVD (that 'access to dean's computer' / 'sam's files' thing)

you can read jo's blog here

the third item on the laptop, which wasn't saved on internet archive for some reason, was added on the evening of february 28th 2006, after the premiere of 'shadows'. ANDOVER3125550143

it was an audio file of morse code that translated to 'salvation', which would be s01e21

and this box from the floor, which was never opened as far as i could find, was theorized to be the box of family pictures sam and dean got in 'home'

two three more tidbits. rolling stones tickets?

john's journal runes

and after 'asylum' aired, the game added dr. ellicott's journal, but i couldn't find it archived or on the wiki. sorry to this man

and at the end of this journey, as i gazed upon a message that said 'here's a post that gathered up all the information and transcribed john's journal'

i click on it, and what do i find.

that that very post turned into supernaturalwiki.com
