Dean Winchester about John Winchester I Supernatural 08x12
John Winchester: Just a man who tried
He wasn't a perfect father, and he wasn't a perfect man, but he was a hero, and you can't say he didn't love his family, even if dying for them isn't the answer.

I find I don’t really care that Cupid got them together, or that John and Mary argued hard enough that he spent a night or three outside the house. I’m going to assume that Cupid has been getting couples together since forever, so that’s no less “real” than couples who do it themselves—it’s just something we didn’t know (the horror is that they were breeding Dean and Sam). And many couples argue without either party being the bad guy. Things happen, and I don’t think John could go on the mission he did out of without a lot of love, or because of a “false” relationship. He gave up his life, and much of his sons’, at least their starts.

This is all you got left…and as the years past, he didn’t allow himself *that* much more. I mean, I’m assuming Adam was an accidental conception he did his stunted best to make good on, no matter how disgruntled Adam was about not getting his full attention. John knows what his full attention looks like, and he knows that only Dean can really take it, despite his best efforts.

I’m not gonna lie—I think that’s what Sam learnt and was thinking about when he spoke to young John. John mightn’t have done the right things, but even the mistakes he made were out of love—for the dead of his family, and to keep the rest alive.

IT’S THE WINCHESTERS.
…
“He said, “Son, when you grow up
Would you be the savior of the broken
The beaten and the damned?””
…
“He said, “Will you defeat them
Your demons and all the non-believers
The plans that they have made?
Because one day, I’ll leave you”
…
“Sometimes I get the feelingShe’s watching over meAnd other times I feel like I should goAnd through it all, the rise and fallThe bodies in the streetsAnd when you’re gone we want you all to know
We’ll carry on, we’ll carry onAnd though you’re dead and gone, believe meYour memory will carry on, we’ll carry on”…“I’m just a man, I’m not a hero”…Anyone else see this? Or is it just me?
you guys
I’m watching s4 of Supernatural and what if John was that last demon to torture Dean before he let Alistair take him off the rack?

John left Hell at the end of S2. The best Alistair could do with be simulacrum.

I do like how the show lets characters be consistent and change as well as get more complicated as you get deeper. This antagonism between John and Sam makes it plausibly to Sam quasi-apologising to a young John in The Song Remains The Same.

It’s okay, John. You’re about to learn from what both Dean and Sam just did—value their family over the revenge mission. You just need to be hit by a truck to get it. That’s cool. Better late than never, eh?

It’s a shame they couldn’t get them all on set at the same time, but meta aside—this was lovely, and I was glad that I did not see it coming…

Wherein John isn’t a drunken homophobe who raises Dean to mistrust his feelings and hide his love, but rather a loving father who helps his oldest son accept himself and the people around him.
