“You look at Superman, and you wonder, what can he possibly have to worry about? What could possibly ever hurt him? But just because his skin is invulnerable, that doesn’t mean his heart is. And that’s how you hurt Superman. You break his heart.” Lois Lane [New Earth]

Because I know how hard it can be. You’ve just left a comment on that site about how much you’ve always hoped that Rose and the Doctor would finally kiss, then you go to another site to leave the same comment about Dean and Cas and you’re hit with the realization that for some reason it isn’t the same.
That if you write that, some people will get uncomfortable, others will remind you how that’s just your sick fantasy and that something’s wrong with you they don’t even know where you’re taking that from because surely it can’t be the way things have been going in the actual show that made you want it.
When voicing your wishes like any fan, it feels like you need to be careful, and moreover like you should avoid certain words that are too specific or that will make people think that you mean those words to be taken in a romantic way, which you do. Basically, you feel like you should be ashamed for calling the things you hope for and the things you already see in their relationship by their proper name.
There’s a taboo about it. Some articles on sites will avoid talking about Dean and Cas as much as possible. In some other articles the author will maybe mention their rapport, only to subtly stress out that it’s just a friendship, nothing more, ever, of course. In other articles, you’ll see some ambiguous words, but no-one will ever state what they really think. I’m convinced, frow what I’ve read around, that authors exist who wouldn’t be opposed to a “canon” romantic relationship, or who do think that Dean and Cas’s relationship is already romantic, but the best they’ll do in their articles is dare call that a “relationship” and admit that Cas is closer to Dean than he is to Sam.
And I have no doubt that some of these people might be be trying, but really no one will just address it. It makes speaking your mind with utter honesty and appropriate language even harder, because you feel like it really is socially unacceptable to be that sincere. You feel like no one other than fellow Destiel fans is on your side.
But I’ve been seeing so many of you just… boldly go there (pass the reference) and leave comments and state things clearly in this last year. And no-one’s ever been where we are and it’s scary. There’s no history of this yet, no rules to follow, no example to look up to from other times that this happened because this never happened. I’ve seen you be brave and type words like “love” and “be together” and “romantic” and “kiss” and at the end of the day that means standing up in front of a crowd of people yelling at you that you should keep you shameful little thoughts in the private space of your own room or head and saying: “no”.
It can be really difficult to do what you do but you do it anyway and because of that I understand it may not be much but I’m proud of you.
And now go on that fucking site with the Cas speculation and leave a fucking comment and let no-one fucking stop you you little rainbow shits

Or, you want a damned Dean/Cas meta, YOU GOT ONE
Supernatural is a surprisingly complex series. On its surface, it’s about humans proactively and secretly fighting monsters. A little deeper, it’s about Humanism (split into the triumph of humanity over monstrosity and that of free will over destiny) and family (split into sacrificial devotion and cycles of abuse). Deeper than that, it’s about love. A viewer may be surprised to hear that last part, but from its first episode to its latest, the theme of love is a strongly recurring one.
Moreover, Supernatural is about love in myriad forms and its after-effects. Its focus, in fact, is as much on unhealthy forms of love as it is on healthy ones, and especially betrayal by, loss of, and sacrificing oneself for loved ones. From the Winchesters’ extreme codependency to victims of relationships so tragic they couldn’t even find rest in death, from Lucifer claiming his rebellion was due to loving his Father too much to put humanity first, to a pacifist kitsune who began killing to save her son’s life, Supernatural is fraught with primarily tragic love stories. Countless characters have died for love, notably, almost the entire Campbell-Winchester line. John died to save Dean, Dean died to bring Sam back, and Sam died to save all of humanity, all as desperate acts of love. Just as characters have sacrificed themselves for the love of another, so too is it very common in the series for a character to be harmed or killed to hurt someone they loved; when this is done, especially in a gruesome manner, purely for the sake of motivating the surviving character rather than to complete the deceased’s character arc, this is called fridging, which is both problematic and the very basis of the series. Both Mary Winchester and Jessica Moore were fridged in the pilot; the former’s gruesome death more or less drove John Winchester mad and set him on the path of monster-hunting, and the latter’s gruesome death convinced Sam to get back on that path after he’d voluntarily left it. These deaths do nothing to advance or wrap up the women’s stories but rather elevate them to an unwilling martyr status in which the men who loved them are driven to acts of revenge, indeed a life of revenge, for the sake of that lost love.
If one considers Dean and Castiel’s relationship to be one formed at least in part by love – which as of season eight is canonically true – then theirs too is most certainly a tragic love story. I posit that the series is due for one that isn’t a spectacular disaster, and that Dean/Castiel is the best candidate as it’s already distinct from the long-lasting, familiar bonds already spotlighted by the show..
