ok i've been thinking abt this bc of those polls going around and when it comes to the term "soulmates" i feel like people have two different ideas of what that means, esp when we're talking abt it in this fandom.
on the one hand you have the spn in-universe idea of soulmates which is...not good. it's literally just heaven manipulation smooshing two people together regardless of compatibility or desire, without their consent, and saying "you are meant to be. it's fated. it's destiny. it's inescapable." and in that regard, no absolutely not, dean and cas are very much Not soulmates. they choose each other!!!! again and again!! against heaven's will!!! against thee biblical GOD!!! they were NEVER meant to be. you're not in this part of the story etc etc.
but then there's the more loose definition of soulmate, what i personally think of irl, which isn't "this person was MADE for me and we are destined to be together" but more of an idea of "there's someone out there who will be my best partner, my best match, someone who compliments me (not completes me), someone who brings out the best in me, etc etc." and, whoever that person is, you still choose them, you still build a relationship together, it's not fated, it's not forced, but they are someone who feels familiar to you, someone who feels like they are part of your soul, like you both share something profound (wink wink). in that regard, yea i can see people calling dean and cas soulmates. not made FOR each other, but two people that are just, so on the same wavelength, so compatible, so willing to grow together, like two plants arching toward one another and intertwining into one. a profound bond. an intentional handprint on the soul. it's lovely and romantic and yea i'll casually think of them as soulmates in this regard.
but in-universe, with spn's definition of soulmates? HELL NO.

If Dean Winchester survived 40 years in hell, I can survive the last eight weeks of this semester.

it is just insane to me that in every moment, every awful, terrible, painful moment, cas was in love with him.
and not only that, but even in this moment —
cas won’t fight back. he won’t hurt dean, even if he’s barely dean anymore.
cas is still thinking — still beautiful. still dean winchester.

To put it in the simplest words Castiel’s rebellion in regard to Dean was never about replacing heaven and God with Dean. It was about how now Cas belongs to Dean. Castiel’s role in heaven was as a soldier, his only purpose to serve. Being associated to Dean Castiel got what heaven never offered, unconditionality. Castiel doesn’t simply rebel from Dean. Dean chooses to remain with Castiel as an ally, a friend, as family. Castiel being off path or fishy wouldn’t lead to Dean lobotomizing Cas. It is made clear in Season 7 Episode 23 when Dean says, “I’d rather have you, cursed or not.” The dialogue has its own layers of interpretations, but one and perhaps one of the most positive ones can be, I know you fucked up and I know you are messed up in the head but you still belong with us. Interestingly the nickname Castiel earned from Dean in his most early episodes is Cas. Castiel is a Hebrew name roughly translating into “Shield of God”. Dean removed the suffix -tiel meaning “of god” from Castiel. Even unknowingly in the act of giving a little nickname, Dean literally removed God and heavens possession of him.

Since AO3 is still down I thought I’d share some of my favorite destiel fics from fanfiction.net to help in these trying times
This is Not Convenient by cloudyjenn If Castiel doesn't find a mate soon, the council will assign him one. And Dean's not about to let that happen. Dean/Castiel slash
Heart Trouble » by Cerulea Dean's having a harder and harder time of denying what he feels for a certain blue-eyed friend of his. And it's making him a little ornery, and a lot confused
Tripping » by Hatteress That time the universe decided Dean belonged with Cas and wasn't afraid to pull out the big guns to make it so. Big guns in this case being obsessive fangirls, archangels turned tricksters and overly enthusiastic cupids. Welcome to Dean's life. First in the Tripping Verse
Destiel, Actually » by Cuboid Dean and Castiel are playing out your typical-and-not-so-typical rom-com cliché's. The culprit's obvious. Gabe's just trying to help - it was about time someone kicked the knuckleheads into gear. "And... ACTION!"
Ready To Fall » by Cerulea Castiel falls from Grace for Dean. This is the first fic I've posted!
Ache by HigherMagic Sam pulls wings out of Dean's back, which apparently you're not meant to do, and Castiel has to clean up the mess, then help the Hunter deal with them. AU, Wing!kink
