I'm glad I was not in fandom when I was consuming the bulk of my SPN for the first time. Apparently ppl hate the Ghostfacers and the Real Ghostbusters episode? How sadface!
I would be eternally grateful if they did an episode exploring that comparison in a really uncomfortable way. Oh god, me too. As much as I love the idea of Claire!Cas, I think that story would only be enriched by an acknowledgment if not an exploration of just how skeevy that is. Consent is such a scarily slippery idea, not just sexually, but say for like participation in psychological/medical experiments or something. If you're about to die and your family is in danger, and you say yes out of desperation, what kind of consent is that?
I LIKE THAT PLOT BUNNY A LOT. Bobby and Claire would really sweet, omg. DID YOU KNOW THAT CLAIRE&CAS INTERACTION IS LIKE MY NEW FAVORITE THING?? godddd
