Classic BYG is really about more than just the fact that a gay character dies, just like "Women in Refrigerators" doesn't just mean that a secondary female character dies

It's not just that he's gay and that he dies, it's that he reveals that he is gay *right before he dies*, and that he dies *because of this revelation* And that he explicitly describes his confession of love as a tragic secret he had to keep until he was ready to die

At least in terms of Castiel's situation they directly made it into an equation Being gay = suffering, coming out = death

It's possible he could be appearing as flashbacks or a ghost or something? But idk. I don't have articulate words yet but it feels like the wrong narrative shape for the final button on a show that's spent as much time as SPN writing love letters to its fandom, successfully or no

...or idk I guess they /could/ just be planning on setting everything on fire on their way out the door as some kind of ~catharsis~? I've been trying not to dip too deep into the spoilers and hadn't heard the part where they were killing like /everybody/ this week

No they literally killed *everybody*, the ending of the last episode shows that Earth has been completely depopulated and Sam, Dean and Jack are the only human beings left in the universe

th... wh... ok wait so if there's literally NOTHING left then their options for the next two episodes are down to "permadeath everybody, winchesters too, end of show" or "jk most of 'em aren't quite dead", yeah?

The preview for the next episode makes it look like it's about the Winchesters adopting a dog
