*sadface*

I sometimes wonder what show people are watching.

Clearly, it's not the same one I am.

If you need me, I will be over here in my happy bubble that is free of ship wars, character-bashing, and show-bashing in general.

I understand entirely.

I think if push came to shove I might love Sam a wee bit more, if only because he's the one who's floundered the most. Dean has a really solid emotional core, and no matter how battered and broken he is, he always knows who he is and what really matters.

Sam? Doesn't have that. He's been searching for meaning, for a way to prove to himself that he can be his own person, to find his own moral core, for the entire five seasons and change that the show has been airing.

I have a serious soft spot for redemption stories, and Sam's is an epic redemption story. :)

Sam might drive the plot of the show, but Dean is it's emotional and moral centre, and I love them both for it.
