I think it's better he's not Dean's
I'm going to sit in the Lisa-didn't-want-Dean-in-her-life-and-lied-through-her-teeth corner. Ben is a Winchester. He will be back on the show. pretty please Santa

Because books.
I enjoyed the fact that they didn't go deep into angst and recrimination, but rather into a sort of bittersweet regret over the idea of Dean maybe having a kid.
This is me.

I wasn't loving new girl in the diner. She seemed just too, you know? But, well, demon explains it.
She was really working my last nerve that Mini!Dean hadn't already gotten to, with the Mary-Sueish knowing secrets about Sam and smugly taunting him about it and all. But the big reveal made up for it—personality traits that would have been annoying as hell in some Britney-esque hunter are interesting and completely believable now.

I thought is was really nicely done, too, Anne. While Dean gets along well with children, we've never seen him evince interest in a kid of his own before this. Not even in the genie!verse. I mean, perfect girlfriend (wife? I disremember), so where were the perfect 2.5 children? No, Dean wouldn't be in tears over not having Ben for a son, just a bit of wistfullness as he stated.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
What I get out of the show is not so much "OMG! Dean (maybe) has a kid!" but rather that Dean would be a good (if somewhat unconventional) parent. Edit: I don't think this means that Dean necessarily wants to be a parent, but the way he interacts with kids is nonetheless awesome.
I really, really hope that we get some flashbacks or mentions of how Dean had a semi-parental role with Sam.

bittersweet regret
It was yummy. I can't read the TWOP comments on this show. I have pity. I have love and lust, and also wierdly, want to mother it. Snarking goes down better when I'm not so emotionally attached.

So much this. TWoP annoys me anyway. I'm tired of snarking as a cover for just being cranky and mean.

There are plenty of recappers who are funny along with being cranky and mean, though. And I can't fault the crankiness of people who had to watch Charmed as part of their job...

My brain just shut down completely, and has ceased to function. I can't remember -- how much older is Dean than Sam? Sam is what, 22 or 23? (Most days I know this stuff automatically, I swear. Don't make me turn in my membership card.)

Dean is four years older. If the timeline is roughly concurrent to real life, Dean is 28 and Sam is 25.
