there's no need for perfection

Ignoring Cas’s blunt and completely hilarious sense of dry humor for a moment, think about what he’s actually saying here.  Castiel is the name given to him by God.  Castiel translates roughly to ‘my cover is God’ or ‘shield of God’ in Biblical theophory—the ‘el’ suffix means ‘God’, and ‘iel’ means ‘of God.’ Cas is the name given to him by Dean.  Deliberately or not, Dean removed the part of Cas’s name that means ‘of God’, and left him with ‘shield’.  Castiel isn’t actually a Biblical angel—it’s a variant of the name ‘Cassiel’, who was an archangel in the Kabbalah responsible for observing the Earth with no interference.  Making it up as we go, indeed.

In case you’ve had doubts on who that bag belongs to. (6x05 and 8x08)

That duffel is Dean’s too, seen in 6x02.

So what exactly is Cas looking for in that toiletries bag? I know there was some fandom discussion around it — any conclusions on the matter? Like, obviously it’s not a toothbrush or toothpaste, since he has those in his hand. Floss, maybe? But why the hell would an angel care about floss? A razor, perhaps?

I feel like, given Cas’s Frowny McConcentrator face here, there’s a significance in this action I’m still missing. I mean, yeah, okay, it’s obviously an intimate thing that Cas is doing here, an invasion of space, no boundaries in a profound bond, yada yada, I get the metaphor. But what the hell is Cas looking for? I need to know.

What if Cas can see the compounds and such? Like, he can literally see the chemical ingredients of toothpaste and is like, “What are they putting into their mouths?”

Someone needs to ask Misha this at the next convention.

I think Cas was just sort of idly rummaging, maybe as a distraction from all the thoughts he’s trying to avoid.  He does this almost every time he has a quiet moment in this episode- here with the toiletries, with John’s journal, the tv (though that could be called research for the case, I suppose) at the bank picking up random things and looking at them.  It’s a nice, subtle indication of his mental state throughout the episode, because Cas isn’t at all fidgety or distracted- quite the contrary.  Yet throughout the episode that’s all he’s doing, until the very end when he sits quietly with Fred Jones.  His peace there is a good indication that while he hadn’t healed from his mental wounds, he had at least stopped trying to distract himself, which was making it harder for him to heal.

I’ve always been reading it as the last. Nicely put. I liked how very HUMAN the fidgeting as a means of distraction was. As if the kind of mental trauma/guilt/etc he was experiencing was so foreign to him he didn’t know how else to cope but via human means. Oh Cas x

unretouched esquire outtakes from 2010. absolutely beautiful. 

oh my god I just love you so much

Wow, I love this. Maybe if I saw things like this more often I’d actually LIKE my body.

I wish the unretouched outtakes from every shoot would be published for the public to see..

Her body is similar to mine.. hmm never noticed. Granted she’s a bit thinner than me. 

Anyways, seeing the original photos is really refreshing. She looks like a normal human, not an airbrushed plastic doll.
