Maybe
Maybe she's confused? Coming back and seeing her babies as hunters.
Maybe she doesn't know how to balance being a parent and a hunter? Hell, their Dad couldn't do that either.
Maybe it's their fault? Maybe they should have told her more about what they've done, and what they've been through? Maybe then she'd understand.
But maybe Mary just isn't a mother? At least not here, in this century, in this life. Maybe here she's just a hunter, a partner, and a damn good one too. Maybe that should be enough?
Except it isn't. Maybe Sam just wants a mom?
A/N: Some of this episode I loved, but some of it I struggled with. There seemed to be a lot of exposition, and explanation from the episode before, and a lot of flashbacks in the main body of the episode, but I did very much enjoy seeing the boys interact with Rowena, the scenes with Mary, and also the closing scene with the song and Lucifer. I was going to focus my drabble on Mary's 'face' comment to Dean, but this just sort of happened instead. Seeing Sam trying but failing to connect with Mary just broke my heart.
