I HAVE IT IN MY HEAD THAT DEAN WAS ALREADY PROMISED TO CASTIEL LONG BEFORE HE WAS BORN. AND THAT CASTIEL HAD ALREADY MET MARY WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG AND FORMALLY ASKED FOR DEAN’S SOUL HAND. AND SHE’S OBVIOUSLY ALL FOR IT.

SO INSTEAD OF FAIRY TALES OF PRINCES SAVING PRINCESSES, MARY TELLS DEAN STORIES ABOUT ANGELS AND THIS ONE PARTICULAR ANGEL WHO SHE SAYS WILL ALWAYS GUARD HIM AND PROTECT HIM NO MATTER WHAT, THAT THIS ANGEL LOVES HIM VERY MUCH, AND THAT THIS ANGEL IS PROMISED TO HIM.

SO DEAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN BRAVE BECAUSE HE TAKES COMFORT IN THE STORIES HIS MOM HAS TOLD HIM; THAT HE HAS THIS ANGEL ON HIS SHOULDER WHO WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR HIM,  SAVE HIM WHEN HE GETS INTO TROUBLE, AND SPEND HIS “HAPPILY EVER AFTER” WITH HIM. BUT DEAN DOESN’T THINK THE STORIES ARE REAL. THOSE ARE JUST STORIES THAT HIS MOM TELLS HIM TO HELP HIM SLEEP BETTER AT NIGHT. SECRETLY THOUGH, HE HOPES THEY’RE REAL.

BUT THEN HE FINDS HIMSELF IN HELL AND HE’S LOSING HIS FAITH IN EVERYTHING. AND HE HATES HIMSELF FOR EVEN REMOTELY BELIEVING IN THOSE STORIES, WHICH HE’S FINDING, ARE COMPLETE BULLSHIT. THERE’S NO ONE LOOKING OUT FOR HIM. HE’S ALONE.

ALL OF A SUDDEN, A BRIGHT LIGHT ERUPTS AND THERE’S A HAND ON HIS SHOULDER AND HE’S RESCUED FROM PERDITION AND EVERY VARIATION OF IT.

HE’S STARING DOWN CASTIEL FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME AND ALL HE CAN THINK IS, “MOM WAS RIGHT”

And that’s how Mary Winchester invented Destiel.
