Dean and Cas go on a solo hunt and it goes entirely to plan - it's like everything they do works out perfectly, they have some insane luck, and they solve the case and save the day without anymore casualties or injuries.

Dean is a little confused over how well it went, because their track record isn't usually that squeaky clean easy-breezy, but he's buzzing at the easy hunt either way.

and Cas is like, well it IS Thursday.

????? What does it being Thursday have to do with anything?? Dean says, fond.

So Cas explains that he's the Angel Of Thursday, of course. so he's extra lucky and things just always naturally go his way on Thursdays.

and Dean has to take a moment. has to hold up his hand and take a moment. because. because this whole time. if they'd have had Cas with them on hunts. on Thursdays. they'd have all been this easy???

Cas considers this and is like, I believe so, yes. isn't it strange that I've never been along on a hunt on a Thursday before now :)

while Dean's whole world view has just shifted and he's figuring out how to tell Sam they can only ever go out on hunts on Thursdays from now on as long as they have Cas with them whilst simultaneously like, Angel of THURSDAY? The day? Thursday? What all the badass titles were taken when they gave you yours??

When Cas goes :( Dean has to reassure him that Thursday is a GREAT day actually. Best day of the week! And they spend the whole ride back talking about cool stuff that happened on Thursdays.

Happy Almost FIMMF people in my phone! 😳🖤

Say hello to my two favourite boys!

Castiel, the angel of Thursday

And that’s how it all started

Thank you, Misha. Thank you, Holly Diane Photography. I need a moment. Or a bucket of ice.

Every Thursday Cas finds a way to sneak a special angel feather into one of Dean's pockets - so he gets a tiny bit of extra good luck

The feather fades away after 24 hours and it actually uses a lot of Cas's energy to pluck it and hide it on Dean every week, but he likes to feel useful. he likes to feel like he's able to watch over Dean and protect him and help him. even just a little bit. even in just the small way he can as the Angel Of Thursday

in a story with chapters. does it matter if the chapters are not of a roughly equivalent length.

Not me ignoring today’s date due to the fact that Good Omens has been rotating in my brain like a rotisserie chicken for a month and a half.

Happy 49 Birthday to Misha Collins.

I’m not sure I want to publicize this but chances are only a few will see/read it and maybe I won’t be alone in this. EDIT: k wow, more than a few, thank you, spnfam. 🥺💜

Crazy!Cas or Honey!Cas, despite Misha not being completely satisfied with his portrayal, was the best portrayal for what the aftermath of having a psychotic break can be like. Everyone will experience it their own way but from my experience it deeply resonated.

For starters, you revert back to almost child-like level of interest in things. Playing board games/twister because of its simplicity. It’s safe. Looking at the world from a broad perspective and making these intricate connections that you find more profound than they actually are. The very sensitive (in this case literal) flight response at any form of confrontation. The guarded bracing of your self when someone’s tone comes across as angry when they’re actually just worried/frustrated/scared. The dissociation from what others are dealing with cause you KNOW what they’re dealing with and the guilt that it’s YOUR fault for having to. The self sacrificing seems like the only way you can make it better and your own life doesn’t matter as much as theirs. Then there’s the second aftermath, once you’re “sane” again, and everything you did before the break, during and after sinks all the way in. “If I see what heaven’s become.. what I…what I made of it, I’m afraid I might kill myself.” All of this was one of the most accurate literal (yet also metaphorical) portrayals I’ve ever seen but you don’t really notice it until you’ve lived it.

Yet to every one else it’s “aww how cute and sweet.” “Cas loves bees! He’d get bee themed everything.”

The point wasn’t the bees. It was the innate nature of having a purpose from creation and performing it exactly as you’re supposed to without altering the grand design. Bees=angels and Cas is a broken angel. He went against his innate purpose and decimated heaven. He never forgives himself. And I think bees would actually be triggering for him cause he remembers what he did before, during and after. He remembers the embarrassment of having those he cares about most watching him go through it. He doesn’t talk about them again.

Maybe this concept and interpretation is just mine but crazy!Cas resonated on a much deeper level after re-watching him go through the process after I lived it. (Cause your comfort show is safe). This show gets a lot of stuff wrong and more than likely it was on accident or unintended to be as deep as that. But it also seems like it was intentional when you really look at Cas’ character arc. I just wanted to say that. Please be kind.
