I liked your tie-in with the MOTW, I hadn't picked that up.
My take on Sam's 'I would not do the same thing' is because he respects Dean's right to make his own decisions. Sam usually follows Dean, allowing him to make most of the decisions in their lives; even in S5 he wanted approval before doing what needed to be done,
I am kinda dreading that Sam will be proven wrong (in crossing lines) because the truth is, Sam never gets his say without blowback!
Hey. I'm always thinking - what's the connection and this one was hard. But after seeing the end it seems to be about those lines you are prepared to cross for family.

Yeah. And this will be what makes this all fall apart. Especially is the fandom reaction is anything to go by (now that I've had a chance to check some out). They've made Dean look like the one who has been wronged by Sam's words where Sam has really spoken about some home truths that Dean does really need to take on board.
It's sad in many ways because what Sam has been through as been COMPLETELY overlooked. We never got to see the effect of the possession and Dean's deception has really had on him so everybody (and wow, I think everybody) see's Sam's reaction as being harsh. We only see Dean being devastated hearing the truth rather than acknowledging that Dean needs to be devastated after his choice. Not to say it isn't

*hugs* you. See, the thing I'd love to see is people saying "I know why Sam said that" - if they look at the history they would understand why he's said it. Instead we see Dean's devastation and can't understand how Sam can hurt his brother so much (not remembering - because show decided not to show us - how hurt Sam was by Dean's actions).
I never forget that Dean is amazing and has a heart bigger than anyone else on the show. A heart that leads him to make dubious decisions. xoxo
I know it seems weird but I really hope they let Sam be the one to patch it up. He said some things that hurt Dean, things that needed to be said, but that doesn't mean he was deliberately being cruel. He's very hurt also. I'd love it if this became about the positive ways they love each other. we've seem A LOT of the negative, it would be wonderful if we could see some of that positive love now.
