The Winchesters are what happens when people in horror movies become self-aware
Dean is the best brother, mother, father…you could ever ask for. Think about this for a second. He found Sam lying in the hallway unconscious, running a nearly fatally high fever and he just FIXES it. Dean carried all 6’ 4” of him back to their room, gathered enough ice (presumably from a machine in the hallway) to fill half the tub, and put Sam in it. Pushed him under gently, forcing his body to expel the heat. He waited, no doubt terrified, for Sam to come out of it. When Sam wakes up, gasping and in shock, Dean is there to steady him. Sam is so confused and cold and scared that he gets angry, but Dean just explains why he did it. The look on his face and the tone of his voice gives away his fear, but he just wraps Sammy up in a thick towel and soothes him. Dean, one of these days someone needs to sit you down and take care of you. You deserve it.
This is the audio from the scene where Sam is detoxing in the panic room and Dean’s standing outside listening. Go ahead and listen to this and just imagine what Dean was thinking, how sick he felt listening to his brother scream and beg for help. There’s nothing like stripping away the familiar visual and just listening to the voices, the tones, and the music. It’s so much more intimate - and heartbreaking. This audio was a huge help for me when I wrote Dean’s feelings in this gifset.
Happy birthday, Sammy!
people no please, stop the shame
