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

I did actually end up commenting on that fic, and got this in response:

yes hello in this universe as they are not hunters, john winchester's main job was to be a father.
and dont every try to defend him as dean's father because nO
if u are looking for nice!john i've written that too. in au i sort of switch back and forth depending on the 'verse - i agree with you that he could have been a good guy. but he wasn't. and he wasn't in this fic.

Clearly it was a dumb idea for me to comment to start out with, and there will be no conversation, since I called John a shitty parent twice in my comment. It's almost like she's admitting she can't write complexity, so she has to go for the 100% characterisation. Not that I'm going to read her other fics--I've written her off even more with that reply.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

That teaser I hadn't seen yet and I am totally flailyhands at (ok, I'll say it) Deanmon. THAT. LOOKS. SO. FUN.

I even got one of the "everything sucks since Kripke" fanboys to admit it looks promising for the season as far as it goes. But he also wants the Sam, Dean, and Cas show to be more racially diverse--I guess I should be on top of how many episodes Kevin was in to compare to Cas, but for a show that rarely has regulars outside of the brothers-with-the-same-parent, it seems the main way to fix it is to cast the Winchester boys as PoC.

I would cast Aldis Hodge as Sam, but I'm blanking on a good PoC Dean and Cas.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I can't stop reading Deanmon as DeanMom.

Part of me wants to fuck up the modus operandi of past seasons and have Demon!Dean be more than one season. I can definitely see an arc for him within that. Wait, when was soulless!Sam re-souled, what episode?

I keep reading Deanmon as "Dean, man..." in a bad Jamaican accent.

All the black guys I can think of are too old for the roles of both Dean and Sam, unfortunately. I hit a block. But I think Aldis would make a great Dean too! There's so much of Misha that's shaped Cas decisions that....as much as I'd love to see, say, Morris Chestnut in the role, I just can't.

Oh, wait--Aldis as Sam, and Michael Ealy as Dean? I could handle that. In fact, it even seems a bit literal a translation. Mary is Angela Basset, and John...probably needs to be lighter skinned and I'm blanking again.

Wait, when was soulless!Sam re-souled, what episode?

Appointment in Samarra, episode 11. Huh--I thought it was earlier than that. Please don't keep Dean a demon for half a season. As much as I ended up enjoying RoboSam for both comedy and angst, I do regret taking away that much DeanAndSam time from them.

Michael Jai White? He's only a couple years younger than Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

I don't think real ages are as important as apparent age difference, and I wouldn't cast him as Michael Ealy's dad, although I think JDM worked as JA's dad, despite reality.

I hate to be so "well-known Black actor" but I can see Denzel Washington playing John W.

I like the Aldis/Sam and Micheal Ealy/Dean, though...

And the "Dean Mom" and the Jamaican accent "Deanmon" totally cracked my shit up!
