(spoilers if you haven’t seen the season 13 finale)
Sam prays for god and Chuck and Amara appear, because seriously, they owe Sam and Dean a favor or two (or a thousand)
Chuck flings Michael out of Dean then locks all the angels in heaven and all the demons and hell and says, “Okay, you can go back to hunting werewolves and wendigos now”
(Chuck also brings Kelly Kline back because he kind of owes Jack a favor, too)
We then get 22 glorious episodes of Sam and Dean hunting down vamps and werewolves, digging up graves and struggling with their lighters, driving the Impala down backroad highways and bickering about music, occasionally checking up on Jack or meeting Bobby for a hunt
They also realize how easy it is to communicate with each other when they don’t have angels and demons manipulating them and driving them apart (you know it’s true)
Basically everything is reminiscent of season 1, they’re just older, wiser, hotter, and have a place to go home to in between hunts
The look on Sam’s face when he enters the camp, then he drops his head in shame and defeat when Lucifer steps out. That’s not on you Sammy…that’s not on you.
NowandGen Super bummed we aren’t in Austin and headed to the opening of @familybusinessbeerco tomorrow! I misspoke on our IG Live thinking we were able to make it to the opening, but sadly we are still out of town. We will be there shortly and can’t wait for all the good times to be had there!! Have a beer or two for us!!! 🍻 I’m craving the IPA! ❤️🍺
I want to talk about this ep but there’s just… nothing I can say?? It’s an episode that aired, and I watched it, and now a new episode will air next week.
#GiveSamaVoice is about one thing and one thing only: respectfully asking the writers and creators to understand that Sam deserves to respond emotionally to his abuse and the story itself, because Supernatural is fiction, but stories are more than flights of fancy and words on a page. They change things and shape things.
#GiveSamaVoice is about asking the show to respect abuse survivors and their right to speak out. I happen to enjoy Castiel and think he matters. Some people who use the hashtag don’t like him. Some like Sam and Dean, some only Sam. Some support other characters or pairings but are baffled by the treatment of Sam. Many of us are abuse survivors or people affected profoundly by emotional, sexual, or physical abuse.
Reducing the whole of us to a flimsy caricature doesn’t erase the truth. Sure, the people who care about this are individuals with their own preferences, but the preferences of the individual do not carry over to the goals of the whole. (For example, I’d love if the bunker was filled with puppies and Sam and Cas chilled out and made flower crowns, but not everyone here shares that dream. Some hate it. That’s okay.)
We are not asking for the Sam Winchester show. We are not asking for the Sam and Dean Show.
We’re certainly not banding together as a group to…what? ask them to kill Cas or Dean or anyone else?
We’re asking for a one-second shot (Chuck forbid we ask for two seconds, or two shots—or, dear God, more than that) dedicated to showing unambiguously that Sam might actually be affected by the presence of the man who tortured him for lifetimes in the Cage, tried to severely hurt or kill him twice this season, and spent the whole first half of the season giving Sam visions of his torture.
We just want them to #givesamavoice, because our voices don’t go far alone, but, united, we have just a smidgen more than a snowball’s chance in Hell of reaching someone.
