Seriously, when Emmanuel/Cas said You're not a machine, Dean. You're human. I rewound that scene about 10 times cause I just couldn't get enough of somebody being actually this caring about Dean. No Suck it up, princess speeches here. And also no I'm gonna kill the bitch who did all this to you, which to me never was what Dean needed to hear to help him get over his Hell trauma.
This is what I love about the Dean/Cas dynamics in a nutshell.
Someone who cares and who shows it in a heartwarming way, not a little-brother-y or hunter-y way.
Also, wrt the drinking, I'm not sure they're going to go anywhere with it, arc-wise. I mean, it doesn't seem to affect Dean all that much, it doesn't seem to get worse. It's always really been there, at least since season 4.
And even Sam doesn't seem overly concerned. He comes across as more mildly annoyed or even amused than worried. (Imagine the situation being the other way round...) So I'm starting to wonder if the writers maybe just think it's a kind of manly thing to do, you know.
And us fangirls read too much into it. Mind you, it does make for some awesome fic...
