actually what if post 15x18 dean accepted his sexuality and started thinking of himself as a widower like fully acknowledging that he has gay thoughts and that cas was his emotional partner and he thinks himself into a territory of like. if we both felt romantically for each other....were we dating? if we spent the past 10 years like this are we common law married? so he just starts referring to cas as his like. late partner. he’s having a bittersweet moment trying to verbalize what he couldn’t before because at least he can do this much for cas’ memory? except nobody else knows what he’s doing so they all think that dean and cas have been fucking for years and dean is only now coming clean about it out of guilt or pride or whatever. and then when cas comes back everyone’s like wrow happy couple reunited......this is so sweet.......you can be Together again........meanwhile dean’s freaking out all over again because now he’s got to put real work into a real relationship and cas is like. Did i miss something.

Dean does double-time on the five stages of grief by speedrunning denial and anger together. Triple-time, maybe, since there is literal bargaining involved. For the first six months Post-Chuck, Dean barely eats or sleeps. He keeps himself alive on bottom-shelf whiskey and whatever food Sam bullies him into eating when he's actually at the bunker. If Dean was in a better space to see the irony in this role reversal, he might have gotten a bitter chuckle out of it, but he didn't notice any more than he noticed the food itself. 

Dean drinks himself to sleep every couple of nights, when he gets so sleep-deprived he can't read anymore. He spends a lot of nights in the Impala, on the road, passed out in a parking lot, pulled over to the side of a crossroads. The spells don't work, the demons aren't biting, and anything with more juice than a standard vamp seems to have crawled underground. Jack's not answering Dean's prayers - he prays anyway, usually at the end of the day when he is drunk and desperate and begging on his knees, or else shouting and swearing at the sky. 

Sam tries to talk about it. Every time he says "Dean," in that voice of his, Dean leaves the room or turns up the music or once, memorably, runs away from his brother into a haunted wood. There isn't much Dean won't do to keep from talking about it. He'd do anything not to think about it if he could. He throws himself at every lead he can find, every text, every contact they've got. He doesn't hunt except as it relates to his all-consuming pursuits. He doesn't call back Garth or Jody when they reach out. Dean thinks if he has to politely stomach their sympathy, he'll be sick.

That post about meme definitions is lying to you. "Glup Shitto" isn't about how Star Wars characters have silly names. "Glup Shitto" is about how the incidental Star Wars character with a cumulative eight seconds of screen time somehow has a silly name, a well established fandom, and forty years of meticulously detailed backstory.

chopped judge: as delicious as this prawn reduction is I can’t help but feel that your soul is absent from your movements, and that your entire life is but a performance for my entertainment

chopped chef: thank you chef
