I just hit My Bloody Valentine on the ol’ rewatch and Famine’s exchange with Dean is never not one of the most gut-wrenching character moments for me. I’ve always seen it as saying “Dean doesn’t have a craving, he’s empty,” but I have some other thoughts this time around.
Famine feeds on people’s desires; he takes hunger and makes it into starvation, turns things from wants to needs in a way. Things that fill people up become poison to them through excess; appreciation and enjoyment becomes raw consumption.
And then there’s Dean, who Famine can’t seem to affect—because, according to Famine, there’s nothing inside him: he’s dead inside, and nothing can fill that void. Now, earlier in the episode, Dean claims to Cas that this doesn’t affect him because he feeds himself as needed—he satiates his own desires. That seems fully out of line with what Famine is saying, which implies that it’s bravado or arrogance, but I think there’s some truth in this, too: none of the excess that Famine is using with the rest of the town will work on him because Dean has tried it, and he knows for a fact that all it can be is a distraction from his bigger issues.
Which brings me to my thought about what Dean’s craving is. Throughout this episode, we see Dean turn down his normal desires. He doesn’t go out for Valentine’s day for alcohol or to pick up women, he doesn’t eat his burger. In other words, he’s rejecting those distractions from the dead-ness or nothingness he feels inside him—and I think it’s because that feeling itself is Dean’s craving. Over and over again, Dean has expressed exhaustion at the path they’re on, he has just spoken to Michael and been told that free will is a farce, and as instinctively as he rejects that, I think a part of him wants to give in, to let go. To stop fighting and let himself drown in the hopelessness. And this episode, he’s headed there as surely as Cas is headed toward filling himself with beef or Sam with demon blood, only he’s doing it by letting go of the things he uses as defenses against it, flimsy as they are.
To me, that’s what makes him such a good victim for Famine. Because Dean is ready to give in, I think, when Famine is talking to him. He’s helpless, Cas has been taken in, Sam isn’t there. It’s hopeless, and Dean can’t do anything to push it down. He doesn’t have buffers left.
And at the end of the epusode, after Sam takes Famine down, Dean is drinking again. But as surely as Sam’s exposure to the demon blood impacted him, Dean’s moment of giving into the hopelessness got to him, and we see it in that haunting final scene, where he prays, begs for help from above, because that hopelessness was brought further forward than he usually lets it be, and he can’t quite push it back down.

During the Bloody Valentine episode where everyone is starving for something and for some reason dean isn't bc he is "well-fed" (total bullshit.) it makes no sense for his character. What would've made much more sense is for him to be starved of positive attention. He has the biggest daddy issues in the country, has never had a serious stable relationship, he's constantly running from any feelings. He's been giving his life to save others since he was a child, and no one is thanking him.
He should be rolling on the ground for praise. Like a puppy.

Dean's fear of love - Destiel character analysis (theory/headcanon)
Tumblr media
So I've been reading an analysis of gay subtext in Supernatural and one theory in particular stuck out to me. Remember the episode My Bloody Valentine where Famine makes everyone succumb to their cravings. Castiel was constantly indulging on burgers and Sam falls back in to his demon blood addiction. But Dean was unaffected, he couldn't eat or have sex. Like Famine said, Dean's lack of hunger is because he feels empty inside and that he is already dead. Dean then replies and says "I think it's a strength of my character."
Tumblr media
Throughout the episode, Dean has been avoiding food and sex and not feeling any kind of hunger when Sam claims valentine's day is his 'holiday'. Well it's far more deeper than that. Love is a special kind of hunger. It leaves the heart racing, knees quaking, a love so intense it leaves you star struck - so overwhelming you can't eat or sleep. Dean's desire to be with Castiel romantically was so intense, he couldn't even think about food, alcohol or even sex. That's why Dean spent so much of the episode uncharacteristically avoiding Cas, not looking at him or longing for him, not standing in his direction and looking for any distractions. Dean was able to fight this feeling more strongly than Sam because he's been fighting with it since the very day he met Cas. His temptation for Castiel is intense and passionate that he can't simply ignore it, instead he chooses to stay silent. He actively suppress his want because he thinks loving men is a sin.
Tumblr media
Dean has been repressing his sexuality all his life so when the craving begins, Dean doesn't feel it because he has been suppressing it since before the very moment he met Cas. He knows someone as powerful and old as Castiel is something he wants yet can't have. He thinks that love between an angel and a human is destined to fail because Castiel is getting hunted for it and is at risk of being killed all because he rebelled for one man.
It's only until the confession in 15x18 where Castiel speaks his truth that Dean's walls come down and he realises that after ages of being stuck up his ass, that love was right in front of him. Cas loves him and he gets killed for it. Dean felt empty inside and it was The Empty that took Cas away from him. When Castiel, his light is snuffed out, he feels like his life is no longer worth living anymore. That without his intense longing for Castiel, he is a man waiting to die. You could say he was already dead because he was never going to have Cas the way he wanted. But it turns out losing Castiel is the thing that gets him killed. His love for Cas is secretly his craving and without it, he would die. It's like hunger, eventually he will starve.
Cas died for love, exactly like the victims of Famine. Dean has been trying to deny to himself that he loved Cas for years so by the time it's ready for his fantasy to become real, he is silent because that's all he's ever known.

With the will to look away
When I was fallin' down
Crawlin' in the dirt?
Is it fair enough to say
That I needed you through the crazy pain
Of livin' here with all this hurt and what I feel?
All I touch and how I steal?
The fantasy was far too real
Oh, I let it slip away
Didn't hear the strength within your words
And what they mean
You were watchin' over me
Watching over me by Radio Company
Happy 2024 everyone 🤡
