Oh I see. Yeah - that's a pretty depressing outlook.
I have to say I hadn't really considered where it's going, but I can definitely see this as a possibility.
Hmmm...it's tricky. I can see that each of them finding their own happiness is a way it could most definitely end. On the one hand I can see how that would be a satisfying conclusion in that they have each found a way to be happy without the other. But on the other hand - NO.
In the episode where Dean put his feet up in the batcave I felt like there was an ending I could be happy with. A new life, a new home, together for ever etc. etc.
I would be shocked if Cas remains human until the end - though, I suppose it's a possibility. I just can't think what story they could give him that would involve him being human until the end. I'd say finding his grace and returning to heaven will be his happy ending.
I would also struggle to believe that Sam would find his happiness in either going back to Amelia or going back to school. I would be extremely disappointed if it came down to that. Finding a new calling/occupation (maybe connected to the MoL) maybe, but not going back to something he has said he never really fit into.
Dean guilting Sam into hunting IS a big issue and it's something I'm trying to work through. Hmmm... I never really thought about it like that. I've been too caught up in my annoyance that they made Sam a brother who had a mental breakdown (one assumes) and didn't make an effort to look for his brother. I want Sam to be able to make his decision to remaining hunting for himself - which I don't think he'd done yet (well - he DID - ages ago, but they've done a reset and for some reason they decided to revisit all that again). Oh dammit it's tricky - I would say that Sam felt guilty as soon as Dean turned up. I thought he put that on himself. I know Dean was feeling bitter that Sam didn't look for him (and I can't say I blame him for that) so there was some guilt laying on Dean's account. I think Dean gave Sam a genuine out when he told him to go back to Amelia. I felt that Sam made the choice to go back to Dean realising that he couldn't have a real relationship with Amelia (it doesn't help that we never felt that Sam actually loved Amelia so it makes his choice see obvious).
Oh now I'm all thinky about that....
I'm still open minded and hopeful that there will be many awesome stories and episodes to come before we see where they plan to end it. I'd be surprised if they've thought that far ahead - but I keep thinking that Carver gave us some awesome bro episode and moments and feel that he does understand the foundation that this show is built on. HE BETTER!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me hun. <333
