To those who liked my story: Thank you! I began watching the show for the bond between Sam and Dean and in recent seasons it has been all but non-existent. When 8.23 happened, I was ecstatic–feeling as though the rift that had been there since S4 would be fixed and all would be right with the world. When S9 began it was as though 8.23 never happened in the first place. Fights every single episode between Sam and Dean have left me angry with the writers who seem to have forgotten where the heart and soul of this show is: with Sam and Dean and their bond.

To those who do not like my story or who do not see the show the same way I do: I respect your opinion. Let me see if I can explain why I hate Cas so vehemently. I see the "profound bond" between Dean and Cas and I hate it. It threatens Sam and Dean's bond which is the heart and soul of the show, in my opinion. In 8.23, Cas told Dean he needed Dean's help. What did Dean do? He went. He went knowing that Sam was not 100%. He put Cas ahead of Sam. I've seen it time and time again. I believe Cas brought Sam back soulless on purpose so that Dean wouldn't find out what Cas was up to until it was too late. Dean was determined to help Cas in S6 and what did Cas do in return? Broke the wall in Sam's head. What did Dean do? Forgave him immediately. No anger...just forgave him. Kept that stupid trench coat while the Amulet is still MIA. I don't get it. What Cas did in S6 was unforgivable in my opinion. That's when I began hating Cas-late S6. Since S6 he has done one good thing: took Luci away from Sam. That's it. Cas has outlived his usefulness and I'm ready for him to be gone permanently.

That being said-I admire and respect Misha Collins. He is a great actor and his Random Acts organization is fantastic. It's the character he plays on Supernatural that I hate. Not Misha. Never Misha.

I appreciate everyone who took the time to read and review. I look forward to posting more stories in the future.
