So, all Destiel shippers (myself included) are probably
familiar with this scene from Season 8:
You don’t have to look very hard to see the Destiel there. Cas
knows he’s going to stay in Purgatory, and he wants to say goodbye to Dean
without letting him know that. But it gets even better, because this isn’t the
first time someone has used those words on Supernatural…
In “Live Free or
Twi-Hard,” Dean is turned to a vampire and goes to Lisa’s house to say goodbye.
More specifically, he tells her:
So, what we have here is one member of a canon serious, romantic couple using the exact same
words to say goodbye to his significant other under very similar circumstances (about to leave, doesn’t
want to admit it to the other person). If that ain’t a parallel, I don’t know
what is!
