Yes, thankfully, Ausiello was kidding about the husband part, though he nearly gave me a heart attack when I started reading.
Ok, first, I have nothing against the character of Lisa. I like her. And I really like Ben. And I totally agree with you that Dean can love more than one person. And I want him to. It's just that it's with Lisa that I have a problem with.
IMO, Dean has more of a connection with Cassie from S1 than with Lisa. He was with Cassie for months and was the first person he told about "the family business". He was with Lisa for one weekend, for sex, years ago, and then suddenly she's the love of his life? I'm just having a hard time buying it.
I've always thought that Ben was Dean's kid (and I think Dean might still think it, too), despite what Lisa said. I haven't watched The Kids are Alright in a long time, but I remember thinking the way she said she did the DNA test didn't make much sense.
Seriously, I wish Kripke would get over whatever issues he has with his real brother and stop trying to bring them to the show all the time.
You know, I never thought about it that way.
that Sam started seeing how much Dean had done for him and meant to him, and that didn't actually last forever, as the last two or three years can attest to.
And that's what I miss - the brothers actually appreciating each other.
But these guys are different people than they were back then, so even in the best of situations, it's going to be different.
And I totally understand that. It would be boring if there was no character growth over five years. I'm just SO tired of them mistrusting each other. There's been a wedge between them, for one reason or another, for so freaking long, and I just want them to be happy around one another.
the life Dean thought he wanted - with the significant other and a kid - is one that can and does make him happy
I want Dean to be happy, I really do. But from the look on his face at the very end of Swan Song, sitting at Lisa's table, he looks anything but. If he'd have been smiling and maybe messing around with Ben, or hugging Lisa, I'd believe he was happy in his new life. Then again, I'm still not sure how much time had passed when we see that scene, with Sam outside. Was it the same day Dean showed up at Lisa's and he's still reeling from his brother's sacrifice and that's why he's not looking very happy? Or is it months later?
It would be interesting to me to see if Dean can keep Lisa and Ben somewhere in his life while hitting the road to go back to hunting
I just don't want to see Dean moping around, depressed, hating the fact that he's back with Sam (for whatever reason compelled him) instead of playing Mr. Mom with Lisa and Ben. Because there's the wedge between he and Sam again for another season and I'm just tired of that.
