30 Days of Supernatural: Day Fourteen

Day 14 - A scene that makes you happy



With such a dark and depressing episode and Dean seeing the disastrous outcome of things of a future he must prevent, I think seeing him returning to the present and realizing how much he values his friendship and companionship with Castiel as he is just makes my heart swell. It's something about Dean seeing Castiel as the angel who sacrificed so much, who is with him the entire time fighting side-by-side with him, and acknowledges and appreciates this fact by telling Castiel, "don't ever change." This is something that Dean rarely does to anyone, and the fact that he did it in this scene is amazing. I just, I cannot fathom how many times I have watched that scene and it made me smile like a loon. I can't help it. ♥

Seriously, just look at the way they're looking at each other. *draws hearts all around them* just kiss already dammit!

Runner up is "A Very Supernatural Christmas" because first of all, it was a Christmas episode and I'm a sucker for those. Second, it featured flashbacks to wee!chesters and that was so touching, giving more light to the brotherly relationship between Sam and Dean and, of course, that heartwarming ending. Showing that you don't need some huge show to express the holiday spirit. Newspaper-wrapped convenience store bought presents and homemade eggnog will is all it takes, especially if you're spending it with people you love and care about. :)


Rest of the 30 Days of Supernatural Challenge.

I GET THESE WARM FUZZY FEELINGS INSIDE, I CAN'T HELP IT. ALSJFLAKS;FDJALSFD. <3 <3 <3

Trufax: That's the scene that made me ship it. Obviously, I knew people shipped it, and I already loved Castiel's connection with Dean, but THE WAY CAS JUST LOOKS AT HIM WHEN DEAN TURNS AROUND AND REALIZES CAS TRANSPORTED HIM AWAY FROM ZACHARIAH. THE LOOK ON CASTIEL'S FACE RIGHT BEFORE HE SAYS "WE HAD AN APPOINTMENT". <3 <3 <3

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Awwww, I think that's awesome, and hey everyone's gotta start somewhere. And this is such a great scene to start shipping them fully because it is just that amazing, omg. :)

ITA. JUST THEIR LOOKS AND GAZES AT EACH OTHER IN THIS SCENE IS SO UNDENIABLE OF THEIR PROFOUND BOND, WHICH OF COURSE GROWS STRONGER BECAUSE DEAN IS ALL ~DON'T EVER CHANGE~ AND LOOKIT THAT SOFT EXPRESSION ON CASTIEL'S FACE. IT'S LIKE HE'S TOTALLY SMITTEN WITH DEAN (AND HE IS, TOTES IN LURVE) AND DEAN IS ALL LIKE LOOKING AT HIM WITH THOSE EYES AND I'M JUST, ASFJDALSKFDKSDF. WILL YOU TWO JUST HUG AND KISS ALREADY???? SRSLY, I THOUGHT THEY WERE LEGIT GONNA HUG IN THIS SCENE. DISAPPOINTED IT DIDN'T HAPPEN, BUT STILL, IT MAKES ME SMILE NONETHELESS. :D :D :D :D

SO MUCH LOVE THESE TWO. THEY MAKE ME HAPPY, ALWAYS. ♥

[silverusagi]

Yep, that's the scene that made me see it. I've said before that I'm not really a shipper, that something about a couple REALLY has to grab me to make me ship them, and damn, this scene did it. JUST THE LOOK ON CASTIEL'S FACE, AND THEN THE LOOK ON DEAN'S FACE. BUT CASTIEL'S IS TOTALLY "YEAH, I JUST SAVED YOU AND I KNOW I'M AWESOME AND SNEAKY LIKE THAT, BUT I'M TOTALLY HAPPY YOU'RE SAFE AND I REALLY LIKE YOU CAUSE I REBELLED FROM HEAVEN." IDK, WORDS CANNOT CAPTURE IT!!

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

HIS EXPRESSION TOTALLY READS ALL OF THAT AND THEN SOME! IT'S LIKE, SOMETIMES THEY JUST DON'T NEED WORDS TO COMMUNICATE. JUST THE WAY THEY ~GAZE~ AT ONE ANOTHER SPEAKS MORE VOLUMES THAN ANY WORDS COULD. ♥ ♥ WHICH THEN WOULD LEAD TO TONS OF FUCKING, OF COURSE

[alanna-zero.livejournal.com]

One of the best scenes ever. ♥

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

IT REALLY IS. I ADORE THESE TWO AND THEIR PROFOUND BOND. ♥ ♥ ♥

[allodole.livejournal.com]

That scene is so cute. I go all ";~; AWWWW" at it everytime. It's like, whole episode of Angst and You'll Never Be Happy Again-feeling and then this and I find myself grinning.

The A Very Supernatural Christmas-scene makes me happy- but it makes me a little sad too.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

It's the perfect way of not only concluding an episode, with Dean taking Castiel's devoted friendship into appreciation and calling Sam back, but it really makes us, as an audience, see just how amazing their profound friendship really is. Dean having seen what future!Castiel was like, and understanding how precious his Cas is in the now? ajsdlfjaslfjdlakjdf! MY HEART, IT BURSTS WITH HAPPINESS WITH THAT. :D

Heh, well, I think it's fair to say that with this show anything that has happiness is mixed in with some depressing shit. Nothing is ever truly 100% happy in regards to this show.

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

GAH! THIS SCENE. (But basically this entire episode).

Even before they start speak, you know how fond they are of each other. It hurts my heart in a good way.

Funny, story. My friend walked in when I was watching this episode and she was wondering if they were going to kiss or something. THIS SCENE MAKES SHIPPERS OUT OF EVERYONE! :D

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Dean and Castiel don't need words to communicate. Their chemistry is just that undeniable, it makes my heart flutter. ♥

LOL I LOVE STORIES LIKE THAT. PRETTY MUCH ANYONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW THE SHOW OR THE CHARACTERS WILL JUST NEED TO SEE ONE SCENE BETWEEN DEAN/CAS AND MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT THEM NEEDING TO JUST HAVE SEX/MAKEOUT ALREADY. I THINK IT'S FANTASTIC. :D :D :D

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

I know, right? They are that awesome together. Their chemistry is undeniable, but SERA GAMBLE... Grrr... Ruining it, right now. We need more interaction from them.

Yeah. Everyone can see it! The show just needs to take one more step and make it official! :D

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Sera Gamble can go eat shit. Someone needs to fire her ass, I swear. -__-

I WILL BE HAPPY IF THE SHOW ENDS WITH DEAN AND CASTIEL DECLARING THEIR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER BY LOCKING THEIR LIPS IN A PASSIONATE KISS (OR A MEANINGFUL HUG, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST ;P)

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

I know. I mean, at times, she gives us moments where it seems like she understands us, and then she does some stupid stuff like makes them fight. GAH...

It's a hug, that leads to a passionate kiss, that leads to The Sex, which then leads to a spin off of those two.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

And not just that, but she clearly doesn't understand the value of characterization or the story as a whole. It's like she does whatever because she can, and that's not good. Kripke, you need to take back the reigns or give them to someone else because Gamble is running the show into the ground, like seriously. :/

YES YES YES, I HIGHLY APPROVE OF THIS PLAN. :D

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

That's definitely true. I mean, if anything, give the show over to Edlund because I feel like he actually knows the characters well enough to write them. My favorite Castiel episodes have been written by him. Here's to hoping that Gamble's taken all of our complaints from the first half and fixed it in the second.

It's a really good plan. I don't see a downside to it. :)

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Pfft, I doubt she listens to anything the fans are saying. She's pretty much the most hated writer on the entire crew from what I've observed, and everyone went in an outrage when it was mentioned she would be the showrunner this season. I highly doubt she listens to any complaints and dismisses them completely.

I consider her the Stephanie Meyer of the show.

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

She needs to start listening to the fans. I mean, Kripke did, right? Just give the show to Ben... I mean, when they said that the show was going back to basics, I was hoping that everyone would still be there.

Ouch... I mean, she had a few good moments? Not as many as the other writers, but a few.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Kripke definitely took fan opinions into account, sometimes a little too often, but he definitely understood what fans liked and didn't like (in terms of how fans reacted to certain characters, for example). I definitely do want them to hand the show over the Edlund. Some think Kripke handed it to Gamble because she was there from the beginning, but I'd rather have the show run by someone who understands it than someone who doesn't.

She did have a few good moments, but not enough to be on the good side of things, in all honesty. She just needs to gtfo for good, imo. :/

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

I vote for Ben. Because he can write Castiel, and he can do both humor and drama.

It's good that Kripke understood fans and gave us what we wanted. Sometimes too much? And in giving the show to Sera, at least it shows that Kripke understands loyalty.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Agreed. :)

I wonder if Kripke realizes that his choice in "loyalty" is ruining his show.

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

I thought that he still had his hand in whatever was going on with the show. Like he'd be overseeing everything. I don't think he'd be okay with this happening to his baby... :(

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Honestly, I'm not entirely sure. I don't know the exact rules for backseat navigation or overseeing of what is going on. I heard he's working on a movie right now, but I could be wrong.

Though it makes me think when Joss wasn't in full creative control and running BTVS during S6 everything went downhill, perhaps this is the same case?

[dauntperplexity.livejournal.com]

Oh, well that's good that he has a movie he's working on. I'm not sure about the overseeing either.

That is a really interesting thought. The season six curse? Hm...

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

It seems to be, many shows have suffered from it if they get to their sixth season. It makes me wonder why though. New showrunners? Creative shift? Nice ideas, horrible execution of them? All of the above? idk...

[mulder200.livejournal.com]

Ah! That scene is one of my personal favs. as well. So sweet!

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

I cannot help but smile when this scene happened, it's too adorable for words. ♥

We need more moments like this between them on the show, since they are friends and all and have had this growing bond since the fourth season.

[love-jackianto.livejournal.com]

I really loved that scene, but I loved that entire episode in general. Jensen and Misha really nailed that final scene.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

"The End" is one of my favorite episodes of S5, it was just done so amazingly well, and they definitely knocked it out of the park with their scenes together. ♥

[love-jackianto.livejournal.com]

Yep, it was a great episode. This season has a lot of problems but I still love the Cas and Dean scenes because both Jensen and Misha can say more with a look then most actors can say with a page of dialogue.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

They just have natural chemistry, just watching them interact you get that sense that they're just meant to be together. And take that as you will. ;)

[love-jackianto.livejournal.com]

So true.
