remember when cas chose to stay in purgatory as penance and dean couldn’t accept that and instead convinced himself that he had failed and abandoned cas and then the rest of the season is just cas undergoing conversion therapy
if this ends well i’ll kiss jeremy carver on the lips your era was a fucking mess king but you laid down the foundations for all this purgaytory and the conversion therapy analogies and cas/colette parallels were the blueprint and i haven’t forgotten
Phil Sgriccia and Ben Edlund discussing the scene between Dean and Aaron and how Jensen acted it.
“It reads in this weird way where it does feel like Dean’s a little bit like.. its almost like a romantic comedy type fluster, which is very interesting for the character Dean like because it just sort of suggests this weird…this potential” - Ben Edlund
I know this isn’t Whose Line, but a million points to Ben and Phil for their elegant way of saying: “We can’t tell you this scene makes it seem like Dean might be bi but we also are required to be speaking right now as it is a commentary and oh hi scene”.
He played it so, right down the middle, you know, just more awkward about it like wow somebody likes me.“
"It reads in this weird way where it feels like Deans a little bit… like its almost like a romantic comedy fluster which is very interesting for the character Dean. It just sorta suggests this weird, this potential. ”

- Ben Edlund and Phil Sgriccia on the scene where Dean meets Aaron in the bar in “Everybody Hates Hitler” (via freckledbuttchester)
"Ben: He [Jensen] did amazing in this. Phil: He was so funny in this. Like the whole close up where he pulls the wallet back, that was something he did that we caught with the camera. It was so much fun to shoot that, because he played it so right down the middle like, just more awkward about it like, ”Wow, somebody likes me.” Ben: Well, that’s the weird thing, is that it reads in this weird way where it does feel like Dean’s a little bit like…it’s almost like a romantic comedy kind of fluster. [Phil: Oh sure.] Which is very interesting for the character Dean, like because it just sorta suggests this weird…this potential. Phil: This potential for love in all places. Ben: Oh Aaron and Dean, they could come together. He’s had a rough life, he’s a hard character to, to you know, settle down with."
