Lords of Kobol, hear my prayer...

COULD IT POSSIBLY BE DEATH? BECAUSE DEATH COULD KILL THEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND HE'S AN INCREDIBLY POWERFUL SUPERNATURAL BEING... NOT TO MENTION HE COULD EASILY HAVE GOTTEN SAM'S BODY OUT OF THE CAGE...

....

JESUS CHRIST JUMPING ON A POGOSTICK, THIS IS JUST A MIND-BLOWING THEORY IF I EVER HEARD ONE. BECAUSE I CAN DEFINITELY SEE THIS BEING PLAUSIBLE.

PLUS IT WOULD MAKE SENSE IF CROWLEY IS ACTING THE WAY HE WAS. I MEAN GIVEN EVERYTHING DEATH SAID HIMSELF LAST SEASON THAT HE'S POWERFUL ENOUGH TO KILL GOD IF HE WANTED TO. AND HE WENT IN AND OUT OF LUCIFER'S CAGE EASY AS PIE TO RETRIEVE HIS SOUL, AND NO ANGEL OR DEMON COULD HAVE DONE THAT AT ALL. JUST, HOLY MOTHERFUCKING WOW. THIS PLACES THINGS ON A WHOLE NEW PERSPECTIVE, CONSIDERING THE PREVIEW OF CASTIEL PRAYING TO GOD ON WHETHER HE'S ON THE RIGHT PATH....MAYBE HE'S SCARED BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT DEATH TO KILL GOD OR SOMETHING, IDK.

THIS IS JUST TOTALLY FUCKING WITH MY BRAIN RIGHT NOW. RED-HERRINGS ALL SEASON AND IT COULD HAVE BEEN DEATH ALL ALONG.

BUT WHY WOULD DEATH GIVE DEAN THAT CRYPTIC MESSAGE ABOUT "FOLLOW THE SOULS"? DOES HE WANT THE WINCHESTERS TO FIGURE THIS OUT? ARE THEY PART OF IT SOMEHOW? IS DEATH WANTING THEM FOR SOMETHING? IDK BB, IDK IDK
