Smiling Sam...

Playing a round with gifs. :)

I was looking at this piece of footage recently (from 2.20 What Is...) and thought that the only time we really see Sam this happy and relaxed is in Dean's dream. Seems significant somehow.

Also, I adore this smile. His face lights up.

I'm sure this is deliberately made to look fake, or forced. Sam never seemed comfortable with Amelia's dad. Even at the end when they were sharing a "laugh". Or is that just me...

oh i loved that laugh this season! i just thought it was a glimpse at what could be for Sam, and which sorta makes it bittersweet now of course. He seemed so open and relaxed.

I think it just looks "strange" becasue its such a rare sight. Its like i find on the rare occasion Dean laughs, to me he looks like jensen - because i have so few references for Dean laughing.

Let's hope Season 9 is a laughfest!

I can't help but look at that laugh and see the strain...it's as though the smile doesn't reach his eyes. I can't tell though if that's deliberate (as in Sam making a real effort to fit in and get on with dad) or we are actually meant to believe he is truly happy here.

Sam laughing is a rare sight indeed.

Hee! SPN a laughfest? I'll wonder what I've tuned into if we see happy, smiling boys. I won't complain though...;)
