#samwena parallels
Text
Rowena is Sam's Benny. Maybe she started as his Crowley but by s14 the parallel was more like his Benny.
Even her death parallels Benny's - a lot. Died at her Winchester's hand to go to an afterlife to save the day.

Samwena in 10x19 The Werther Project
This scene from 10x19 The Werther Project is a classic for obvious reasons, but it has taken me until today to think more deeply about this.
Sam doesn‘t go, “Can you do the spell for me?” or “What’s the Cabirian Invocation?”
No, all he says about the topic is, “Great, thanks.”
This absolute nerd either already knows the Cabirian Invocation or is at least entirely confident that he knows exactly where to look it up and that he will be able to cast it on his own.
That is the moment when Rowena is suddenly far more affected by this call than before.
Obviously, she thinks it’s hot as hell that Sam can do magic, too, but there’s more to this. She has been expelled from the Coven. Earlier in this season, in 10x07 Girls, Girls, Girls, Rowena was shown trying to recruit those girls as students, with... very limited success.
It’s painfully obvious this is so not going to work, neither for the girls, nor for Rowena.
But hilariously, this scene is not the first time Latin is mentioned in this same episode. No, the first time was this little gem here:
It was even made clear that while the translation for the spell’s name was on the website, Sam looked up thoughtfully and just casually translated it on his own in his head.
I must have been blind never to notice the purposeful contrast between Sam and the girls before, but I seriously never paid attention to this detail until today. And that even though I’m a linguist. Pff.
(And yes, I do believe this contrast is completely intentional. Both 10x07 Girls, Girls, Girls and 10x19 The Werther Project are Berens episodes, and he does give loving attention to detail and parallels.)
Even though she probably wouldn’t admit it, Rowena craves the companionship of joint spellcasting. She’s been lonely ever since she has been expelled from the Grand Coven. She craves a kindred spirit she can nerd out with.
Enter the dude who calls her just to chat about a spell, and who can match her own intelligence and thirst for knowledge.
Sam’s initial reaction to this proposal kind of gets me, lol.
He’s a very intuitive guy with finely tuned senses. He absolutely heard how sultry her voice had become.
He declines (much to his own disadvantage, as the episode later shows. Things would have gone so much better for Sam had he taken Rowena’s offer!)
But, er... what is his face doing? This weird little smile that flares up for just a second, half tormented and half... something else, before he goes back to a far more neutral expression again.
Know what this reminds me of? This moment from 4x09 I Know What You Did Last Summer where Ruby is trying to seduce Sam while he’s desperately trying (and failing) to resist.
And here’s a casual reminder that Ruby, too, was a witch.
Even these profile shots are mirrored (and I can’t for the life of me tell if this mirror was done on purpose, or if it was a coincidence. If this was done intentionally... man.)
The positions of Sam with Ruby and Sam with Rowena are inverted, though, and I love that considering the fact that Sam’s involvement with Ruby and the demon blood and freeing Lucifer are some of his biggest regrets, and even his deepest hurt because it’s what makes him feel tainted and unworthy.
(That heavy swallow Sam does as Rowena says “dark magic” never fails to get me.)
So of course he’s trying absolutely everything and anything to keep himself from going dark side ever again. Little does he know at the time that this connection doesn’t end with him going dark side. It ends with Rowena joining the good guys! She’s his big success. She’s the deeply needed validation for his willingness to see the world in more than black and white. She’s the cure to that deepest hurt and his feeling of unworthiness.
But, erm, back to 10x19 The Werther Project and a timeline where none of that has happened so far:
Suddenly those sexually charged Rowena hallucinations he has later in this episode are making even more sense to me than they ever have before... as does the fact that he declined Rowena’s help when having a seasoned witch around who offered her help freely sure would have seemed like the more sensible choice here.
That he hallucinated her calling him “Sammy” when that’s something he always got mad about when it was done by anyone other than Dean is... certainly something.
I very much read the “It’s opening” not only in reference to the Werther’s Box, but also as Sam’s desire that’s woken up in full here.
And I don’t even mean that in an exclusively physical way, it’s also his desire for magic and knowledge and a kindred spirit and connection and being seen and appreciated for who he is and what he can offer, much like what Rowena herself craves after a life filled with rejection and never fitting in.
Yep. He is so gone on her.
And yes, I also see “it” very much as a placeholder for both of them.
Not even to mention the fact that he 100% trusted whatever this hallucination was telling him, no matter what.
Even if it was to make a blood sacrifice of himself.
To bring this full circle, let’s not forget that he also hallucinated Rowena being impressed by and appreciative of his knowledge of Latin, which... is so painfully ironic with regard to the beginning of this post, I want to bang my head against the desk.
Sam, buddy... you realize you didn’t have to make this shit up, right? You could have had the real one. She wanted exactly the same things you did. She actually appreciated your knowledge of Latin. You both could have been your sapiophile selves around each other all day long to your hearts’ delight.
No? Okay then.
To silence the box, slake its thirst... I mean, seriously. Come on.
And yes, I absolutely see the box as a metaphor for Sam’s deepest wishes. Which takes Rowena’s fondling of the inscription to a whole new level.
Then there’s also the little fact that this is what Benny said to Dean in Dean’s hallucination of Purgatory that was happening at the same time:
And guess what?
Dean woke up on his own.
Guess who didn’t?
Sam didn’t.
Dean actually slapped him, and Sam attacked Dean with a knife for trying to break him out of the illusion.
And even through all of this, even after Dean bandaged Sam’s bleeding wound and began to sacrifice his own blood instead, the Rowena illusion still persisted until the box was opened.
Oh well, indeed.
And when Sam next met the real Rowena at the end of the episode, he put her in shackles in a desperate attempt to keep control this time around. Because he had already gotten dangerously close to losing all restraint, just like with Ruby.
I... rest my case.
(Who am I kidding? I’ll never rest my case.)
(Can’t believe they went so far as to even have a similar background in both 10x19 and 15x03 when Sam and Rowena were holding hands like this. Both scenes feature dark gray stone walls with rays of light falling in through a curved window. And Rowena is wearing an iron chain around her wrist in 15x03 to ward off the ghosts when everyone else was wearing the iron chain around their neck. Was this sheer coincidence or done on purpose up to the smallest detail? I feel like I’m losing my mind here. Again all of these are Berens episodes.)
On a side note, when I used the Werther’s Box inscription repeatedly in my Samwena video, I also very much had that metaphor in mind and saw it as them growing closer and closer. In case you haven’t seen the video yet:

Samwena Saileen and Sabriel are all SO good like
Sabriel is great if you hate John Winchester and think it would be funny if all three of his sons were dating angels, if fanfiction has given you a prayer/wing/abuse of angelic grace kink, if you love the inherent homoeroticism of saying "I need you," if you're a bi!Sam truther (or a poly!Sam truther because Sabrielwena...).
Saileen is great if you like Destiel parallels, if you want Sam to be a happy normal functional smart well-rounded guy, if you want him to retire (maybe hunt a lil on the side, become the new Bobby), if you like badass super smart women, if you like Dean and Eileen as besties.
Samwena is great if you're a witch!Sam truther, if you want him to go absolutely insane, if you think the demon blood arc was fun and sexy, if you like enemies to begrudging friends to lovers.
They're all so valid honestly. Sam ships are so good why were we given blurry wife as an ending.

samwena. asian drama levels of repressed hetbait. no kissing, not even a hand brushing against a hand. just the sheer intimacy of shared narrative parallels. mentor-mentee vibes? like okay legend of condor heroes. one of them being doomed to kill the other? literal tragic wuxia lovers nonsense right there.
#references that make sense to probably only me maybe.#but putting this out there. just in case someone else gets it#god reminds me. i should go digging through spn chinese fandom#me engaging with supernatural: wow look at this American wuxia!! no flying sword. only car and gun#s4 onwards i'd argue it's a xianxia#j.txt

Trick or treat! 🎃
yay!! hello!! im getting ready for bed rn so im gonna quickly tell you some interesting info abt my destiel & samwena fic Three Princes!
in the comments of Three Princes no one has:
Figured out why it’s titled Three Princes or the parallel themes samwena and destiel present
Done the math to figure out the main cast’s ages (the ages are all figured out, but one has to do math based on their conversations to know what they are for sure)
Realized/recognized what Bela did for Dean in the epilogue regarding ‘the slap’ (or the exact mirrors they make for each other in that moment based on the specific dialogue used there and earlier in the fic)
in the comments of Three Princes at least one (1) person has:
Been convinced it was a djinn dream taking place in the canon spn universe (genuinely an interesting take)
Confirmed historical accuracy (getting an A+ in fanfiction is both normal to want and possible to achieve)
Refused to continue reading RIGHT before the epilogue (😬)
Thanks for sending me an ask!! Happy spooky season!! ❤️❤️❤️

For the shipping ask box game: what's your take on Sam and the witch of your choice? (SPN, obvs :D)
Oooh very fun.
I'll have to talk about samwena because ❤️❤️❤️ but tbh I'm a big fan of shipping Sam with pretty much every witch who has come his way, including Ruby and Patrick.
Samwena: Ship It
1. What made you ship it?
I don't remember how I stumbled across it, not because I was in the ship tag because I wasn't there yet (likely the episode or season tag?) but I read a short fic about the late s10 arc with her in chains, translating the book of the damned. In the fic she talked Sam into, ah, motivating her to work harder 😳 it was hot and made me see the potential of the ship, so I was on board before I even got to season 11.
2. What are your favorite things about the ship?
I'm still honestly so blown away by how much emotional development and depth we got between these characters. From Rowena in shackles to holding Sam's hands and sacrificing herself, and so many stops along the way where she changed and grew through her connection to him, and the insights we got into him through his conversations with her. I legit would have been okay with them being endgame and I don't feel that way about any other canon ship in the show (or most fandom ships lmao).
(I also love their flirting and Sam's obvious crush on her but anyway)
3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
Soooooo I'm not too into the whole "Sam is Rowena's apprentice" and "witch!sam" of it all, although I interpret that as a fully fanon take anyway.
She doesn't leave her witch cache and grimoires etc to him because he's following in her footsteps and developing as a witch, let alone identifying as one (canonically he rejects the label). She leaves it to him because he's the one she trusts with all those dangerous goods, he's the one she trusts with her legacy, he's one of the very few people she even likes (I'd go so far as loves, in whatever way we want to read that). She doesn't want or expect him to be a witch, even though she leaves the resurrection spell for him specifically. Rather, Rowena understands that Sam's needs and aims with respect to magic are distinct from her own and respects that for him, wants that for him.
They're not each other's student, either of them, they are two equals on separate but sometimes parallel paths, who respect the incredible and unique gifts and abilities of the other. That's what makes it sexy.

KP's 2022 SPN Year in Review
Soooo much happened in my life in 2022 (well from end 2021 though 2022 really). I am so grateful for the friends both online and off who helped me get through it all 💜. I found myself focusing more on art and editing than writing - but I am really excited to share my Pinefest fic with you all in February!
The #1 creation I'm most proud of this year was my Haze Amv, but I am also blown away by how much my Me and My Broken Heart Amv took off - ending the year with almost 20k views - which is in-sane. Setting and sticking to a regular upload schedule has been motivating and rewarding - I'm excited to post January's video on Thursday too :).
Participating as an artist in a couple of bangs for the first time had me stepping out of my comfort zone and drawing the best human being I've ever drawn to-date.
Aside from making things, I also co-modded the new SPN Bang Bang with my friends @doctorprofessorsong and @you-cant-spell-subtext-without, which went wonderfully well; I"m excited for this year's round!
Last but not least, being an editor and guest for @endofthebookpod has been amazing so far, and I'm excited for the rest of The Winchesters season!
Without further ado, here's a recap of all of the SPN fanworks I made in 2022 (I'll also get my masterlist pages updated to include these):
---
Fic (all G or T rated):
Did You Mean It? - PB Exchange - Cas realizes Dean's been flirting with him, so he confronts him - with some satisfying results. (reblog link)
The Theme is Dean - Dean birthday - Dean gets the themed party he's always wanted. (reblog link)
I'm the One He's Walking to - Valentine's Exchange - Is this a date? (reblog link)
Sleepy Stares - they are just so soft (reblog link)
You Never Let Me Say It Back - a poem by Dean (I am particularly proud of the wordplay in this one) (reblog link)
Regarding Bunnies - Easter; goofy Dean - Cas gets Dean a fluffy surprise, that yes they've discussed before. (reblog link)
Mon Pays Sera Toi - Dean really likes how protective Cas can be - it makes him feel safe, among other things. (reblog link)
Magic - Samwena drabble (tumblr only)
Rendevous - Drowley drabble (tumblr only)
What if Dean kissed Cas in The Trap? (tumblr only; in the tags)
---
Amvs (I'm posting a new one every 5th now - YT channel):
Words Words Words - Dean Winchester - Comedy (YT link)
Squirrel all the Bad Guys Want - Dean Winchester, Drowley - Comedy (YT link)
When You Were Young - Dean Winchester, Destiel - Drama (YT link)
Haze - BAMF Cas, Destiel - Drama (YT link)
Dream Boy - Destiel - fun (YT link)
Me and My Broken Heart - Destiel - Drama (YT link)
The Shipped Gold Standard - Destiel - Drama (YT link)
Don't Let the Light go Out - Destiel - Drama - got (c) blocked on YT, so the Tumblr post has the original audio and the YT version has pitched concert audio that you can kind of hear me in 😳 (YT link)
---
Gifs:
LGBTQIA+ SPN Characters
Aang and Cas entrance parallels
That pose from OTHOAP (which I like to think of as honk.jpg)
The totally-not-suggestive way that Cas eyes Dean in 5*02
500 Days of Winchesters - Spn Win / 500 Days of Summer Crossover - Suptober
---
Art:
Dean/Cas/Benny drawing for Spn Bang Bang (Benny here is the best human being I've drawn to-date, and the reason I can no longer say that I can't draw people.)
Juliet the Hellhound drawings for Crowley Big Bang
Smoke - Drowley digital drawing - Suptober
---
Meta and meta additions:
The Winchesters initial thoughts
The Winchesters John meta (with gifs)
Rowena is Sam's Benny
SPN Witches' immortality and humanity
See #spn meta in the tags for more thoughts too
---
Misc nonsense (non-serious ramblings, sketches, ideas):
Do you wanna go/ do you wanna get out of here
Putting on a tie is such a turn-on apparently
I'll just wait here then Destiel and Merthur parallel (I could go with you is also one but yeah)
A silly little amongus/SPN crossover sketch I might come back to and draw for real.
Sarah Blake references from 8*22 Clip Show
Unusual reactions to 'I love you'
---
Non-spn stuff:
Sure this is an SPN year in review, but I did make a handful of other things that I thought it'd be weird to leave out.
Soldier Boy Soulja Boy Amv - (YT link)
Dreamling Dream Amv - (YT link)
Merthur She's got Sorcery Amv - (YT link)
Puppet History Can't Touch This Amv - (YT link)
A Solid Foundation - original sapphic horror story (Reddit link)
---
Last year's year in review post was more of a 'here's one fave; check out the pages I made that are a complete list.' But since blog subpages are hidden in the app, I figured I'd do a complete list in the post this year instead.
I plan on doing more writing in 2023 - Pinefest is only the beginning.
Happy new year everyone!
Since tumblr tags suck, I used this Tumblr OP finder to help me put this together.
