no but like. danneel liked destiel/spnwin parallels on twitter. jensen knew. it's not like robbie just secretly put that in there without discussing that with him. or maybe he did cause what the hell do i know. maybe he asked rich to direct the confession parallel and told jensen "it has to be this episode. no reason don't worry about it." maybe danneel just teases him about it. she was also the one who decided to make bluegreen shotglasses and ofc jensen had no problem with that cause he knew it would sell out immediately. it's all fun and games to him as long as it can be a wink & nod and it never has to be said out loud and he never has to confront how seriously so many creatives on spn treated it and what that might mean for that storyline as a whole. good enough for profit, not enough to have a closer look at what a big and often marginalized part of the audience sees clear as day
and none of this is new! but you go online and see other actors from other shows being so normal about it and you're like oh right this actually should not be this hard. 6 years post canonization you'd think he'd have at least a half decent pr answer at the ready. he'd at least have had some candid conversations with a few writers about it, watched a few important episodes. anything. but no, he thinks if he didn't play it that way, it can't possibly have ever come across that way cause he's a good actor, and it can't possibly have been in any other puzzle piece of that storytelling. especially since everything in the scripts that did ping his radar, he pushed to change every time. those were just small inconsistencies that he was helping to clean up, surely nothing indicative of a broader story arc anyone was writing. just a gay writer getting too excited or a woman not knowing how to write men. surely. nothing to see here
