“Sam, you’re carrying me home, I threw my back out again’

“Think maybe we’re getting too old for this Dean?’

the world is full of pain and suffering. so what are your softest sam/dean headcanons?

happy wincest wednesday, lana! <3 sorry this reply is months late lol. But it is A wincest wednesday (for a few timezones west of me) so...

some of my fav soft samdean headcanons are domestic finale+ winchesters:

I love thinking about Sam having soft fucking feelings about the grey coming in at Dean's temples and in his stubble. The crinkles at his eyes. The low groans Dean makes when he gets up from a chair and the appreciative moan he makes when he settles into the impala or into bed.

I love to think about Dean's soft look when he watches Sam sleep. The way he runs his fingers through Sam's hair when he knows Sam won't catch him. He gets a weird thrill out of the soft look Sam gives him when Dean hands him his reading glasses before he asks.

The getting-older caretaking they do for each other so naturally; so fucking married.

“… and then you had to carry him home?”

“Yeah Cas, whining and grumping the whole way”

“Hey!! I’m allowed! I was heroically injured in the line of Duty. At least Jack has some sympathy! That feels much better Jack, you’re a good kid!”

“Dean, would you please stop calling the lord god almighty a ‘good kid’”

“Awww Sammy, Jack doesn’t mind, and he is a good kid!”

and then one day sam walks out of his room with a man bun on top of his head

and dean looks up at him from the table and just completely drops the book he was reading

because sam might be 54 but he’s still solid muscle and it takes a lot more discipline but he’s managed to do it.  his skin isn’t as tight and supple but he’s still so beautifully tan and his beard is salt and pepper with brown streaks in it where his hair is still its natural color

and sam just squints and pushes his glasses up on his face and says “dude what’s wrong?”

and dean just kind of shakes his head and clears his throat

“nothin’ man, nothin.  think that beard might be growin’ on me.”
