2x21 All Hell Breaks Loose (Part 1) // 7x21 Reading Is Fundamental // 15x18 Despair

I do think it's so interesting taking note of the different MoL weapons that catch the brothers' respective interests.

Dean immediately latched onto the grenade launcher Ketch used back on the highway. It's a "fun" weapon. Exciting. Dangerous, yes, but in an almost cartoonish way. It's a weapon for an action hero in a movie, not in any way practical for everyday use, even in their profession. There's a sort of adolescent giddiness associated with Make Big Explosion there, and that's even before you get into the grenade launcher as a metaphor for Dean's gender and sexuality journey (shoutout to @deanwasalwaysbi for writing a meta that rewired my brain back in 2021).

Sam, on the other hand, is fascinated by Ketch's explanation of the radiation gun they use to make vampires' own blood fatally toxic to them en masse. It's a nightmare weapon built with only one purpose in mind: mechanically efficient eradication. It's practical and terrifying because of the implications behind the fact that someone even thought to create it.

It's such a sharp difference in what catches their respective interest, one that really highlights some interesting differences in the brothers' worldviews and approaches to their jobs.

Many people have tried to express what the alluring aspect of supernatural is and I think. It’s that it comes very close but not quite to saying something. And you just have to give it one good hard shove to get there. Thinking about camera work and amvs and how. You couldn’t make a fuckin. Ted lasso amv to relay. you CAN make a supernatural amv to relay through sheer willpower and catalogue and suspension of cringe. the story's moldable but just barely. its like macguyvering for babies. where you're not creating a car engine out of water bottles and cooking oil you're creating a car engine with a toolkit that's half full but also half empty so it's a stretch but it still looks like a car engine at the end of the day. with the color saturation of riverdale. we should all watch supenrtural amvs forever

Dean Winchester + Emotional Intelligence (8/?)

Just another early example of Dean’s emotional intelligence. He doesn’t push Sam to talk about things. This is very much a statement of I’m here, I see what’s going on but I’m giving you space right now. Not forever, because you need to talk about it eventually, but you’ve got the space you obviously want right now. This is a huge marker of emotional intelligence, the ability to not only listen and understand what another person needs, but to give it to them too. And Dean has this ability in spades. From the beginning, he’s had it in spades. {1.05}
