Why Do I Ship Sabriel?

Why do I ship Sabriel?

I ship Sabriel because I sincerely love both of these characters and wish only the best for them. I ship Sabriel because both of them need family – not just a family by blood, not just a “it sort of happened” family, but a family that was chosen knowingly and on their own. I ship Sabriel because I believe that they could build a relationship which would make each of them feel better than when they were alone.

Both of them are painfully addicted to their families. Both of them have tried to run away from their families and concomitant responsibility. But both of them have found the strength to come back. I ship them because they understand each other well because of this.

Sam is very attached to his brother. Gabriel seems to me as the one who could accept it (in fact, already did in a “Mystery spot”) and not to make Sam choose between them. I ship Sabriel because their relationship could fit into the Winchesters’ life without severing the brotherly ties.

Gabriel openly spoke of liking for Dean. Dean openly spoke of understanding Gabriel. I ship Sabriel because Gabriel can become a part of the family.

Sam is a hunter who has lost a lot of people he loved. Gabriel is one of the few people who don’t need to be worried about all the time – at least, worrying too much, as he is himself a part of the supernatural world. I ship them because their relationship is possible in the Winchesters’ universe.

I ship them because of the way they looked at each other when they first met. I ship them for consistently keeping each other emotional. I ship them because they couldn’t stay indifferent to each other from the very beginning.

I saw how Gabriel tortured Sam in the “Mystery spot”. I saw how he stopped because Sam asked him to. I saw how much Sam’s attitude to Dean has changed after that. I ship Sabriel because they can influence each other.

I saw Gabriel leaving Sam because he thought it was right. I saw Sam leaving Gabriel because he thought it was right. I ship them because they still remain their true selves when interacting.

Gabriel is as much of a “deserter” as Sam is a “hero”. Gabriel is as much of an “egomaniac” as Sam is a “martyr”. I ship them because in a best-case scenario together they can balance each other and find a middle ground.

Sam spoke about his faith in angels in 2x13 – and Gabriel appeared in 2x15. Sam spoke about losing his faith is 13x11 – and Gabriel appeared in 13x13. I ship them because Sam deserves a better support of his faith than vain prayers. I ship them because Gabriel can justify this faith.

Sam is almost incapable of having a good rest and Gabriel, apparently, of working. I ship them because their joint activities could be much more productive than when they work alone.

Lucifer. Asmodeus. Not just a torture, but a degrading torture. I ship Sabriel because both of them understand what it’s like and can help each other cope.

Both Sam and Gabriel took serious approach to permanent relationships and respected their partners. They both value their families equally. I ship Sabriel because I think that without this there could be no deep connection and long-term relationship.

I think that Gabriel is a lecher more often in words than in deeds and it’s the same with Sam being a prude. I ship them because I believe in a match of their sexualities on practice.

Sam and Gabriel have different temperaments. But I ship them because that wouldn’t let them be bored with each other and because a high level of understanding wouldn’t let it become a problem and because they hardly could spend so much time together that they would start annoying each other. I ship them because their interaction could be interesting but wouldn’t exhaust them.

I ship them because they could get one dog for both of them.

I ship them because they, within their abilities, tried to protect each other.

I ship them because someone other than Dean could make Sam smile more.

I ship them because Sam can see (and already did that) something human behind Gabriel’s facade.

I ship them… Because of many more reasons. But there is one main thing.

I ship them because they belong together. Because I believe: they could love each other and could have their “happy ever after” for a relatively long time.

That’s why.
