I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.

when the demon who tortured you in hell goes for your angel Cas and you don’t even have to think, your body just reacts  Dean saving Cas for the first time

Dean attacks the physical embodiment of his Hell trauma to save Cas. Like. I will never be over this scene. I wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat over this. Cas was always supposed to die and Dean stepped in and saved him. We’re making it up as we go. Help me.

bugs. episode of all time. has a 6.8 star IMDB rating when every other s1 episode averages around 8-9. the opening shot of sam lying sluttily on the hood of the impala. sam and dean being mistaken for a gay couple looking to buy property. sam and dean pretending to be a gay couple looking to buy property. "okay honey". dean slapping sam on the ass? the only time in the show i've seen sam and dean use umbrellas (finding out that kripke never wanted them to use umbrellas bc they weren't manly enough??) sam and dean breaking and entering and squatting :") a kid with a bug fixation, ostracised by his dad, who sam has an immediate connection with. winchester family dynamics. bugs as the ghost of settler colonial violence haunting American suburban gentrification. bugs as a metaphor for how fragile the facade of white picket fence suburbia really is. sam and dean aren't able to kill their way out of this week's monster. all they're able to do is save people, temporarily. they don't get to break the curse, and that's the point. it's bigger than either of them. hunting as a cycle of frontier violence perpetuating itself, and for once there are no black-or-white solutions. supernatural will never deal with this theme again! anyways, they put cast and crew in a room with 65000 bees but the damned bees didn't show up properly on camera so they ended up using CGI bees. they look horrible.

Only a power which springs from beyond the protagonist's creaturely existence could allow him to yield that existence up. The hero thus bears witness to his freedom in the very act of renouncing it, buckling on the harness of necessity and acknowledging his actions as his own. Terry Eagleton, Tragedy
