Go Ask Malice

Doesn’t it just rip your heart into tiny little shreds when you think about how the reason Cas doesn’t heal Dean when he says “I had it coming” likely isn’t because Cas agrees with him or thinks that this makes them ‘even’ in any way. It’s because he understands what it’s like to want (and need) to atone for something that hurts too much; guilt in the form of almost physical pain. He’s just being… Cas, as always. 

Because he deeply understands that healing Dean’s physical injuries isn’t going to help. And it may hurt him to see the same pain he knows so well reflected in Dean’s eyes… but still, he lets Dean have the physical pain in hopes that it will somehow help him with the one he carries inside (nevermind that it never really works that way). Because that’s just what he does, isn’t it - always there to make things right again, ready to offer understanding and comfort, in whatever way he thinks he can, disregarding his own needs completely. Because he feels he is obliged; because he cares; because he’s Cas.

#I wonder what other convenience store foods were Cas' favorites...#what candy bars does he have in that bag?#did he have a favorite soda?#or did he usually drink water?#trying to save all his money to get a place to stay?#instead of living in the back room in a sleeping bag...#how lonely was he?#lying awake at night and staring at boxes of supplies#wondering if Dean ever cared for him at all#wondering what he did wrong#convinced his powers is the only reason Dean ever kept him around#always feeling this heavy weight on his chest#and a nameless feeling that found him no matter how much he tried to forget (via)

Faith ↳ Well, just yesterday, a young guy like you, twenty-seven, athletic. Out of nowhere, heart attack.

Her experience with the Master must have been extremely traumatic… I don’t think she’s dealt with that on a conscious level.

#let’s think of all the things Buffy has suppressed and does not think about  #all those things she doesn’t talk to anyone about  #not just the stuff we saw happen to her and had to be traumatic as fuck  #but also the stuff before the show started  #like her first watcher being killed  #Buffy was someone who kept bad shit bottled up right from the get go  (via glompcat​)

#I think it’s very important when you think about S6  #and how people were disappointed and annoyed with Buffy being depressed  #but Buffy Summers’ story is also a story of facing trauma and mental illness  #and Buffy starts to feel something off since the beginning  #since her traumatic experience with the Master  #and maybe even before  #she suppresses all this feelings  #because who can listen her?  #who can say I understand without the quit being depressed or smile and stop  #as if depression is a lighter you switch on and off  #Buffy gives all these little signals even at the start  #except that no one really see them  #and the thing with vampires can also be interpreted like that  #I think  #both Angel and Spike are dead  #they are death  #and Buffy dances with them  #Buffy find solace and comfort among graveyards and dead stones kissing Angel  #kissing death  #Buffy is the girl who dances with melancholia  #and I’m forever grateful that the series doesn’t end in S5  #because she dances with melancholia in S6 and S7  #but at the end of the Hellmouth fight  #after Spike dies and the whole city collapse  #she looks back at her road  #and smiles  (via kikibluemay​)

Heaven can't wait, parallels.
