Okay, so me and
waterofthemoon are talking about Cassie and Dean and Dean and Sam, right? She mentions how Cassie had to have been really awesome for Dean to want to tell her The Truth, I mention that him telling her is less about her being great and more about Dean desperately needing not to be alone.
And then I manage to talk myself into being able to see Bottom!Dean. o_O!
He's still not some passive little girl though!
