in the supernatural writer's room

adam glass: so, what are we thinking in terms of romantic subplots this season? i know we've had dean mention that he wants to find someone who understands his life, maybe another hunter...
robert singer: right
adam glass: you know, the other day bobo berens brought something up to me, he said that cas--
robert singer: no. no. we've been through this. here's what's going to happen. towards the end of the season we introduce a lady hunter, you know, hot, white, early 20s maybe. don't worry about too much character development. in the meantime, we have amara and dean...

The thing about reading fanfic (and original slash fic) is that you get used to that particular writing/reading culture after a while. You get used to the frank discussions of sexuality and kink, the close attention to diversity and social justice issues in the text, the unrestrained creativity when it comes to plot. The most amazing, creative, engaging stories I’ve ever read have almost all been fanfiction, and I think part of that is because there’s no limitations placed on the authors. They’re writing purely out of joy and love for the world and its characters, with no concerns about selling the finished product. The only limit is their imagination. Next to that, most mainstream fiction starts tasting like Wonder Bread, you know?

I honestly DONT feel like The writers are setting it up for Dean to get with Amara. They wouldn’t set up a character to fall in love with the big bad of the season , who they’ll eventually beat, and talk all this crap about settling down and having a life with them unless they were talking about an endgame relationship. dean and Amara are not endgame. Amara will be beaten eventually and that really only leaves one other person Dean’s endgame could be?????

except that supernatural isn’t about romance, never has been.

This word endgame, as used for romance, sucks enough when I see it in relation to other shows, but where spn is concerned, it just isn’t something the writers give a fuck about; They’ve never been about romance, at most they’ve used it as a minor B plot in the background, but that’s it, …

I’m still convinced that the only ‘endgame’ the show’s writers care about is Sam and Dean, and their relationship. And I don’t even mean that in a incesty way.

Hell, I ship destiel, and I would love to get it, but even if the writers went for it, they wouldn’t see it as endgame, just as a storyline they may or may not take.

I agree with the fact that romance is not a main plot in the show and when I say endgame I’m purely talking about the romance part (which is a very small department) of the show. I definitely agree that the writers are more and have been focused on Sam and Dean through out the entire show. I mean, I feel like that entire recent episode was a set up FOR a romantic subplot for Dean, and they wouldn’t take it in the Amara and Dean direction with the way they were talking about it.

But it’s a very fine line we don’t know if the writers are gonna cross and I just like to be positive about it :)

I mean, yeah, if Dean/Cas was a typical subtextual relationship a la John/Sherlock then yeah, I’d consider it out of the question that it would become ‘endgame’ canon, because of the nature of the show. The fact that Dean/Cas has been much more of a narrative relationship, actually building and changing over time, makes it different in my mind, but I still would’ve been skeptical of any sort of romantic endgame

But we aren’t just talking about a romantic endgame as some kind of inevitable, natural end to all television shows without noticing it doesn’t suit Supernatural. I would’ve agreed that didn’t seem to be the show’s style. Instead, at least since the end of season 10 and possibly even back through season 9, the show itself has been dropping very major hints that Dean himself wants a romantic interest, and in the process the show has been engaging with the question of whether the brothers can settle down and at least half-retire and whether a romantic relationship could be a part of that. If nothing else, if we combine the three most blatant references to all this - the confessional scene in 10x16, Sam’s questioning to Dean in 11x04, and now honestly the entirety of 11x11 but especially the conversation about leaving ‘life on the road’ and following your heart and pining - I really think that level of continuity is enough to designate something an out and out subplot, or at least a heavy theme of this season. And all of this has been pretty closely tied with questions of retirement and ending, particularly in 11x11 (Honestly, everything from the retirement village to Eileen’s ‘what now?’ question paint the picture). And as OP said - it’s all been situated very clearly in language about ‘settling down’ which are completely inappropriate for whatever kind of relationship Dean and Amara have. At this point, endgame isn’t something merely theoretical - the series itself is engaging with the question and providing some pretty big (if tbh very confusing) arrows about which direction it wants us to head in.

the thing that astounded me the most about the differences in Lucifer playing Castiel and Castiel playing Castiel is how they behave 

Lucifer expresses himself with everything except the eyes 

Castiel is expresses himself with nothing but the eyes

Accurate as fuck

I get very angry when people slam Slytherin because the primary traits of Slytherin are cunning and self-preservation. Salazar Slytherin was not an evil, bigoted man. He wanted to preserve his people because this was in a time when witchcraft and it’s users were still being hunted down.
