I wonder if there is a correlation between:
- refusing to watch new shows and keep rewatching your old comfort shows, and
- refusing to read books with original characters and keep reading fanfiction about characters you already know and love
Remember when I talked about inventor Cas (1, 2, 3) and vigilante Dean (4)? Well, I'm back, thanks to @colorlessjay and our wonderful brainstorming >:)
I want to expand on The Hunter. Jay (can I call you Jay?) suggested the idea of vigilante Dean, guy in the chair Sam, and tech guy Ash. Gadget guy Castiel is for later, and until then, Dean uses whatever Sam can afford along with whatever Ash can make.
Becoming a vigilante was an accident. Stanford era, the news caught wind of Dean's hunting and declared him a serial killer. But conspiracy theorist Ange1ofScience proved that the killings were stopped every time Dean Winchester rolled into town and the internet went wild. A real life vigilante.
Dean says fuck it, I'm saving people, and goes along with it. So, pilot episode, Dean breaks into Sam's apartment, and instead of hitting us with the "Dad's on a hunting trip," we get a confident declaration of "Sammy, I'm Batman."
The Hunter is born in the back of Ash's van through a budget Batman costume, a bulletproof vest, and a very forced deep voice (they all tell Dean to stop doing the voice). Dean dubs the back of Ash's van The Dean Cave.

Escaped from the Empty and newly human, Cas is coming for Dean in more ways than one π€‘ππ
