it is what it is ; (dean/castiel ; SPN)

SPOILERS FOR 6x17

After the episode, I was all "OMG. THEY CAN'T TURN CAS EVIL!" but the more I thought about it the more I grew to love the idea! Misha would rock evil!cas and we've gotten evil!sam, evil!dean -- WHY NOT CASTIEL? don't get me wrong; I adore his lovable, clueless, angelic self but he's always been a character with the potential to go both ways. (back in season 4! he's the one that opened the door of the panic room to let sam out!) MORALLY AMBIGUOUS CHARACTERS FTW!

And yeah, there isn't a guarantee that he's gone bad but -- I may be in the minority -- I am loving morally-gray!cas! :) it opens up so many doors for storytelling and if we get a season 7 (WHICH -- COME ON..WE TOTALLY HAVE TO GET OR THE SPN FANDOM WILL IMPLODE AND DESTROY THE WORLD!) cas would rock as the big-bad!

& WHY IS HE COLLECTING SOULS AND LYING TO THE BOYS?! I've read spoilers so I'm not going to get into what I think is going to happen here but by the end of this season, I know I'm going to be crying my eyes out regardless of what happens -- 'cause spn-finales always pack that emotional punch RIGHT TO THE GUT. And kripke's writing it so...*stocks up on tissue paper*

OH AND NGL, I squeed at the "you know ..the one in the dirty trench coat who's in love with you." line! :) Which brings me to the premise of this video! I've always believed that castiel loved dean -- but i've always seen it as a one-sided unrequited love. I'm sure dean loves cas the way he loves bobby and ellen and jo and all his friends; just not the way he loves sammy in that "i'd sell my soul for you" - psychotically, irrationally, erotically codependent soulmate kinda way. So I wanted to illustrate how cas has given up everything for dean and gets next to nothing in return. It's sort of him going "what the hell is the point?" ; IDEK...I kinda wanted to try to justify his actions and show how human it is of him to make mistakes and balance all those shades of gray -- especially after everything he's done for our boys (ITS AN ANGSTY VID!) and it totally didn't come out the way i was hoping it would but i hope you all like it regardless! XD

DEDICATED TO KARLA! Oh my gosh. There aren't enough WORDS in the english language (maybe theres some in spanish?! ;) ) to tell you how much i ADORE you! theorizing and squeeing with you is what made this video come to life (AND LOLHAHA, i know i'm supposed to be working on like 2 other videos at the moment but this one just needed to be made after our conversation! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, BB!! YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!)
