Insecure!Dean, something new and interesting. I haven't come across it before and I'm intrigued, mainly because how you describe him makes it fit into his character so smoothly. I'm not sure he was insecure before Sam left. Despite losing his mother, I have the feeling that once he'd adjusted to their life, their mission, and being his father's perfect soldier, the world was Dean's oyster. Until Sam left him behind and neglected him like he meant nothing, and Dean was left with the darkness of their lifestyle and his father's obsession with revenge. That must have been a huge jolt to the spirit for him. He didn't quite know what he had until it left and broke him in the process. :(
(Which reminds me in the 11th episode where Dean says Sam has puppy dog eyes, hee!) I loved that, because it's true and because it shows that Dean is aware of Sam's secret weapon. I'm sure it's been used on him many a time. ;) And Dean was just so pissy in that episode (for understandable reasons) that his mouth was even less filtered than usual. It was horrifying and hilarious all at once. "Did anyone ever tell you you've got a smile that just lights up the room?" (spoken with such a weary tone to that infuriated crank sitting on that streetside bench-- the one who called Dean on his "John Bonham" fake name).
