There's a lot going on here but, um, no. Not dead.

If you're referring to this:

"The author is dead" references a school of literary analysis in which once a work is published, the author can no longer be taken as word of law. In this case, it most likely refers to the Supernatural writers trying to add things once an episode airs to make it seem less gay.

“Castiel remembered Zachariah’s warning on his very first day here.”

Hellosaidthemoon, schmerzerling (91,054; PG13)

Summary:  Dean has cystic fibrosis, a brutal respiratory disease that means he can’t cut it in the life his father chose for him, despite his very best efforts. He also has a give ‘em hell attitude and a dogged crush on his childhood best friend. Castiel has an absent father, a stellar GPA, a comprehensive ten-year plan, and—a lot of reservations about all this.

Comments: This is an incredible fic. It deals with some heavy subjects, from small-town prejudice, to serious medical illness, to shitty parenting, but it balances it with very refreshing bouts of hope and love. There is enough good mixed in that the bad is bearable (but still a million tears for Castiel). The art is also aces. 

oh my god that’s the best thing i ever heard i’m dyin
