It's not like it's a really unusual pose for someone either dead or sleeping.
Actually, it strikes me as a weird position to arrange someone in, placing their hands on their stomach like that. But it might just be how Jared lies down.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because books.
Oh, see, if I'm on back, that's where my arms are. Otherwise it ... feels weird.
Danneel just tweeted a picture of an adorable named Oscar with no explanation. I wonder if Icarus has a new roommate.

But that's with you conscious or going to sleep. Not dead or in a coma. Sam was placed in that position both times, probably.

Okay! I hadn't given it that much thought, really.

Are you implying something about my level/degree of Show thinkiness?
Especially since that's entirely not what I'm supposed to be thinking about right now.
Cowboy hats! Oy!

You mean your adorable obsessiveness diligence? Not at all, dear.
And YES, let's think about cowboy hats. And chaps. And LASSOS.

It could also just mean that it was Dean both times that arranged Sam's body.
And yet, in both instances, Dean was doing something reckless to bring "Sam" "back to life".

Why does Dean tilt Sam's head to the side? It's kind of creepy.
Cowboy hats are hard.
What is this from? Other than our collective dreams, of course.

But the head tilt is probably for the camera, and not something Dean would do.
Also, it's unlikely your head is going to stay perfectly straight unless you make an effort. Which you can't, if you're dead or comatose.

I don't think your head will tilt if you're dead, and when I pass out from drugs, I'm straight up.
But I like the idea that Dean tilts Sam's face so he can look at him from the other room, and that he has a specific way of arranging his brother while he goes to do something stupid. Or waits to see the results of the last stupid thing he did. Because it's a habit by now.
