More of a Brother (picspam)
Nov. 26th, 2012 08:01 pmBenny has been more of a brother to me this past year than you've ever been!
Dean knows it's not true.
Sam probably knows it's not true .
We know it's not true because Sam has demonstrated it many times:
You're my brother and I'd die for you

| 1.05 Bloody Mary |

| 1.11 Scarecrow |
Dean: But I'm gonna die. And you can't stop it.
Sam: Watch me.

| 1.12 Faith |
I just....I saw you die and it just came out of me, like a punch.

| 1.14 Nightmare |
You were just a kid.

| 1.18 Something Wicked |
Thanks for not giving up on me, Sammy.

| 2.01 In My Time of Dying |
And I'm not all right. Not at all. But neither are you. That much I know.

| 2.02 Everybody Love a Clown |

| 2.20 What is and What Should Never Be |

| 2.22 All Hell Breaks Loose Part II |
... I've been following you around my entire life. I mean, I've been looking up to you since I was four, Dean. Studying you, trying to be just like my big brother. So yeah, I know you - better than anyone else in the entire world. And this is exactly how you act when you're terrified. And I mean, I can't blame you. It's just... It's just that I wish you'd drop the show and be my brother again. Cause...just cause. |

| 3.07 Fresh Blood |
Well, great minds think alike, Dean.

| 3.08 A Very Supernatural Christmas |
Sam: He's my brother. |


| 3.11 Mystery Spot |

| 3.16 No Rest For the Wicked |
If you hurt him, I swear to God!

| 4.04 Metamorphosis |

| 4.09 I Know What You DId Last Summer |
Get in there and heal him. Miracle. Now.

| 4.16 On the Head of a Pin |

Let me defend him. ![]()
Just read! ![]()
And finally. A cap from season 8 showing Sam's continuing love, worry and concern as he races to his brother's location. ![]()
End Note: This was inspired by a gif set I saw on Tumblr (source). I was going to vid all these moments but it would have taken too long and I needed the therapy now, so I decided to play with caps instead. You might think between this post and the recent meta post I'm not keen on Benny and Amelia. It's not true at all. I like the introduction of them A LOT and I particularly love how each of them served to be a brother "substitute" while they were missing their other halves. And I know Dean is the bestest big brother EVER (\o/ <3), but this is about Sam being an awesome brother too. I needed to do this. ;) |

I don't really care what screwed up things come out of their mouths when everything you need to know about them is right there in black and white.

I KNEW there was a reason I chose to make the caps B&W....;)
*smish*
and *GUH* I love that gif! The absolute sincerity, need and love on Sam's face slays me every time! (Carver did that!)

Date: 2012-11-26 02:07 pm (UTC)You know, that moment in Mystery Spot when the Trickster tells Sam all the reasons why his obsession with Dean is a bad, bad thing - I love that all Sam is able to say to that is 'He's my brother', like that is all the explanation anyone could ever need because his brother just encompasses everything in his life. ♥
Oh, and I noticed you missed one of my favourite 'Sam is an awesome' brother moment, namely in Point of No Return, when Sam puts all his trust and faith in his brother - even though Dean is in no position to return the sentiment - and thus manages to save Dean from himself. :)

YES YES EXACTLY!
when Sam puts all his trust and faith in his brother
OMG! I swear to god I had this! I had a clip and had the text and then I took it out for some strange reason (I think because I couldn't find the cap that conveyed that moment).
But ...YES YES! Dean says...if you had faith in me the least I could do is have faith in you...(something like that).
SAM SAVED DEAN ON THE FAITH HE HAS IN HIM! I adored that moment SO much. One of my all time favourites. (I think I'll have to secretly insert it when I have the chance..;D)

Date: 2012-11-26 02:19 pm (UTC)I also love the small moments when Sam thanks Dean, even though they're harder to convey visually: when he tells him in Like a Virgin that he shouldn't have tried to keep the soulless thing from him but thanks him for trying to protect him, when he thanks him in Mannequin for getting his soul back, when he argues that it is worth reaching out to Cas in 7.1 because Dean hadn't given up on him when he went off the reservation . . .

Date: 2012-11-26 03:05 pm (UTC)Oh yes! All those moments he actually thanks Dean. He totally knows, appreciates and loves everything Dean does for him.
And in my mind the hug Sam gives Dean in LaV is conveying that utter, heartfelt thanks. I know he then says it but just that god all mighty squeeeeeeze he gives Dean conveys so much.

Date: 2012-11-26 04:37 pm (UTC)It's actually nice that the spectre has Dean say such melodramatic things, because even if you were inclined to nod along with his little rant about some of Sam's less-than-stellar choices, at that point you'd have to pull back. I mean, really, Dean. Benny seems like a friendly enough guy, but I don't see him clawing his way out of a torture-induced coma to save you from your recently deified and currently criminally insane angel friend. A little perspective, please.

Date: 2012-11-27 12:17 am (UTC)I really appreciate this reminder of the times Sam has been a wonderful brother, since it's easy to forget the nuances in the flood of information that's the result of more than seven years worth of canon.

Date: 2012-11-27 11:10 am (UTC)I think sometimes we are reminded about all those times that Sam hasn't been the kind of brother Dean might have wanted in the show. But looking at everything (and it's not all here of course) we can see that he's not just the brother that Dean wanted but one that he also needed.
