maybe it’s just me, but 10×20 gave me major destiel s7 flashbacks, esp the scenes where Amelia found Jimmy again, bc they were shot similarly 2 how the big deancas reunion scene from 7×17 was: Dean/Amelia coming down the steps of a house, spotting their long lost loved 1 & stopping 2 stare in shock, how, despite the similar appearance, Jimmy /wasn’t/ Jimmy(“Castiel is gone,it’s just me now”*tries not 2 think about the leviathan saying Cas is gone/how whenever Cas’s said ‘it’s just me’ it wasn’t)

just like how Emmanuel wasn’t Cas(“a constant reminder of some1 that’s gone” – if that doesn’t describe what Cas was to Dean in s7, I dunno what does). Also, Amelia went looking 4 a miracle worker, which is exactly how Dean found Emmanuel(there was even that hunter who vouched he was the real deal bc he’d been healed),& in both cases a journal was involved. Both were angels undercover/using a fake name, only Cas didn’t know who he really was which made their reunion heartbreaking. The 2nd reunion

was the real 1, w/ Jimmy in Heaven & w/ Cas when he got his memories back. Interestingly, Jimmy & Amelia meeting in Heaven was shot the same, only in reverse, with Jimmy being the 1 to come down the stairs (dressed in a blue sweater, reminiscent of Emmanuel). I like how we were shown hugs as the expression of utmost joy & relief, DAREISAY LOVE to having found your soul mate again after having looked everywhere 4 him (Purgatory any1?). Bit bitter we didn’t get a kiss, tho I suppose that’s petty.

*whiiiiiine*

Bitter about Jimmy & Amelia not kissing? Because since Purgatory happened first, them just hugging it out without kisses is, like you say, a delightful parallel so I’m cool with that as it was so painful and sweet aaaaugh.

(But I mean YEAH in an ideal world we’d parallel the Purgatory kiss with a Jimmy/Amelia kiss ;))

Yes!  The miracle worker thing in 10×20 definitely made me think of Emmanuel.  (Season 7 callbacks everywhere, yo.)  Which makes this post about shipping Daphne/Amelia even more cracky and hilarious.

But I’d forgotten until now that Emmanuel also healed the eye of the hunter who vouched for him.  Just like Tamiel healed Cartwright’s eyes.
