I am considering (considering) opening a topic for discussion on whether destiel will become canon in the show sometime soon.

What do you think?

Yeah, this is a great conversation! It's really interesting for me to get perspectives I don't usually come across.

Finding out that Castiel took Anna's intended storyline was like a lightbulb moment for me. It explained certain things about Dean and Castiel, like the intensity of Castiel's disappointment in Dean when Dean intended to say yes to Michael, and the extent really of what he was willing to do for Dean ("I killed two angels this week, I rebelled, and I did it, all of it, for you" - powerful stuff).

I think it's quite a shame that Anna's character was not given more scope to develop. Though, when I rewatched seasons 4 and 5 recently, it was really obvious that Dean and Anna (and/or Jensen and Julie) had little to no chemistry. It worked as a one night stand but it was difficult to see how they might have made more of it. Whereas Dean's chemistry with Cas, however you read it, is pretty palpable.

Dawn Ostroff (I think??) had some weird ideas about what Supernatural needed. I like how it backfired too! While I do wish we could have more female characters, we don't need love interests. FYI, CW.
