'Out Of Gas'
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
Gamblefied promo for this week.
Ah, interesting directing choices there, Edlund. This could go either way.
But whichever way, Castiel needs a hug. I foresee much fic being written this weekend--fixit or celebratory (probably fixit) unless they manage to stun Casfandom into silence.
for sure. And every week it's a little more blatant. Sometimes I wonder & I'm not sure if it's fearfully or hopefully.
I keep telling myself there's no way that a network action-adventure show is actually going to go there and have the more macho of its two male leads do a 180° (well, maybe 120°) and get involved in a same-sex romance.
But then, I didn't expect that they'd ever take a sledgehammer to the fourth wall like they did in "The Monster at the End of This Book," nevermind knocking the whole thing down with a wrecking ball in "The French Mistake."
I will be shocked if they address it in any way other than to dismiss it--and even then, why would they bother canonically break the hearts of so many shippers? Writing discord between the two characters is one thing--it's trivial to ship around that. But to explicitly say "they had feelings for each other. It didn't work out." (because, seriously, can you imagine it??) would be too much.
How do the D/C shippers explain Castiel staying away from Dean the entire year Dean thought Sam was dead?
Dean made a promise to make a try of it with Lisa, plus he had a heaven to run. Dean never asked him to stay, and he had new responsibilities to take care of.

So for those so inclined, they could even say that it (the separation of Dean and Castiel) was Sam's fault!
I haven't seen any of those inclined, but you could if you wanted to. Generally Dean's regarded as responsible for his own decisions.
We don't know how much Cas watched Dean during that time. Is there no fic of Cas watching Dean & Lisa?
Tons.
If it turns out that Cas had anything to do with liberating Sam's body at the end of "Swan Song" while leaving his soul down in the cage, he may have been making himself scarce for good reason.
