i canât decide what my favorite era of dean/cas is
season four, when theyâre so alien and yet so fascinated with and attracted to each other. when dean is still shook up after hell and cas is trying his best to stay faithful to a system heâs losing faith in. when theyâre unable to comfort but inspire each other instead to make the right decisions no matter how difficult
season five, when theyâre on the run from both heaven and hell and theyâve got nothing to rely on but their tiny, broken family. when cas is falling and angry and confused and dean feels just so empty and hopeless but even so they never fail to get a reaction from each other (and you just know any sex theyâd have during this time would be either angry and rough or unbearably soft and gentle)
season six, when cas is fighting against overwhelming odds and compromising every value he has just to keep humanity (but mostly dean lbr) safe. when dean has no idea why cas is so distant, which makes him angry and hurt, and what few times they do talk thereâs all those secrets and feelings they canât put a name to and it only serves to make them more hurt and confused
season eight and purgatory when dean is so desperate to find cas, itâs literally all he thinks about for months on end. when cas is so desperate to keep dean safe that he keeps him distant even though itâs probably killing him. when theyâre finally together again and dean is so happy but cas knows itâs going to end soon and that, too, is killing him, knowing that heâs gonna have to hurt dean like that again but believing itâs for the best
or current era, when theyâre so domestic and dean knows he can rely on cas to give him advice about his mother and to keep her and sam safe. when cas sticks around not just because dean needs him to but because he wants to because theyâre family and maybe that means brothers or maybe that means something else but in the end it means that they love each other and they both know that the other loves them
