So I haven't been on Tumblr much lately because of GISHWHES stuff, but I returned tonight and my dash was covered in sad sad Destiel stuff and I'm just like...
Just read "The law of conservation of energy" fic and it will stop hurting. =) Because now when I think about Destiel, I'm sure Dean and Cas saved the world and end up together. The TV-Show not a canon anymore! ha-ha-ha!
Destiel doesn't make me sad 'cause...it's hard to explain. It didn't actually happen on the show, so they didn't actually have a breakup, and so I don't have to be sad. What I am sad about is Cas being gone. >:( Now that pisses me off. I guess for me, canon ended after season 5? Although I did like several eps of season 6, and I've liked a couple in season 7. If they bring Cas back and everything's okay, it'll be canon again for me. :-P Personally, I like the happy, fluffy Destiel stories and art. The other stuff I just kinda skip over 'cause I don't like to cry.
Oh, and I agree with what somebody else said about "Good Omens"....NOT ENOUGH CROWLEY AND AZIRAPHALE! I like the book (about 40 more pages to go), but mostly because of them. I do like Madame Tracy and Shadwell, though. :)

Technically they did breakup multiple times on the show. They had a friendship, and bond, something between them and that was severed brutally last season through the stupidity of the writing. So watching that relationship crumble was painful, and it hurts even more realizing that the show doesn't even want to acknowledge how Dean and Castiel had that particular friendship with each other, that Castiel even mattered to them in general. :(
I'm sad about their relationship being messed with on the show like that, I'm sad about how they handled Castiel's departure and his absence on the show, I'm sad at how they mistreated Misha, I'm just sad and disappointed and angry at everything.
I went through those feelings, too. I was pretty miserable last summer. Now I'd basically rather just stick my fingers in my ears, ignore it all and watch the old eps, read fanfic and write my silly RP posts where everybody's happy. It's my coping mechanism.
I will always love Dean/Castiel no matter what, it's actually the pairing I have continued to be passionate about for the longest time out of all my pairings, to be honest. Even if the show fucked up it's never going away. But yeah, there's such a huge depression going around parts of fandom and every time someone makes a graphic or music video or whatever it's like GODDAMMIT JUST KISS AND MAKE UP ALREADY STOP MAKING IT RAIN ON MY FACE!!! D:
Sometimes they hurt good, but other times they hurt bad. However, I kind of retreat to the good 'ole AU fics and it makes everything all better. :)
I share your perspective re the way fanfic can be a canon all by itself. I know this might seem weird, but I've never read any Destiel fic though I do ship them, I just know that the very fact that it's there means something - namely that there is an alternative way of viewing the canon events and this, from my perspective, ensures that canon doesn't become/remain the be all and end all of things.

More importantly, does Misha Collins keeping me away from porn qualify as irony?
