What was the bagel apocalypse??
Hello!! Thank you for your message!
The Bagelpocalypse can be best described as a stress-induced response that was triggered with the conclusion of seeing Dean wake up as a demon in the season nine finale. Shortly after, during the Hellatus of 2014, the fandom collectively underwent some sort of bizarre breakdown, likely to soothe their pain, which mostly manifested in bagels being thrown into every fan work that you could think of. Think the Mishapolcalypse but with slightly more bread.
Anyway, there were poems! There was art! (just a few of the many examples here and here). There was fic.! This one called Destibagel in particular was infamous—be careful; it’s an explicit story featuring bagel x bagel action).
Bagel Castiel walked into the room (well, really he more hopped into the room, because he is a bagel and therefore did not have legs or know what legs were) where Dean Bagel sat, watching Dr. Sexy Bagel. Dean Bagel was entirely convinced that there had never been and never would be a sexier bagel. Until, of course, Bagel Cas walked (hopped) in front of the television screen. Okay, so maybe he was wrong.
And there were gifs and text posts with way too many puns!
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this foray into fandom history! This year’s hellatus has been quiet, but you never know!
