A few things about 903

Becoming human turns you into a heterosexual.

We know that some angels are sexual. Or, at least, Balthazar was. So it's not that angels just aren't sexual. Cas (maybe) wasn't. So why now? Is it a different experience of sexuality, is angel and human sexuality different? Was it different for Balthazar, or was he never actually sexual but did (or didn't) have sex for other reasons? Has the change in Cas' life made sex something he'd need or want, made it worth it for some reason even if he hasn't changed?

Not Misha's first time rocking the homeless sex appeal, by the way.

I said it when Dean and Cas trusted Ezekiel based on a name and not on recognition, and I'm saying it still - whoever is in Sam is not Ezekiel.

I take it wardrobe's been struggling with how to dress Cas, now that he's coatless, and has been settling it the only way they all agree on - shirtless. I can live with that.

Dean lied. He does that. *Tips hat at everyone from last episode's discussion*.

Oh, dear. I though they were at Denton rather than Dayton. Two young, ordinary, healthy kids, leaving Denton that late October evening, to visit a Dr. Everett Scott, ex-tutor, and now friend to both..

That was badly written.

ETA: I gotta run, but hey, I was kidding about the heterosexuality... pansexual here *waves*, I wouldn't have said that seriously... But please do keep talking about Cas not being straight, cause of the happies...

ETA: Oh! Another thing! When Cas died, did he go to heaven? Is that, perhaps, a way in for the angels? Tear out their grace, then die, then kick Metatron's ass, get resurrected, put the grace back in?

And the switches between Sam and Zeke would have been creepier and more interesting, and more fic material, had they not gone with the blue light, had it only been Jared's acting there.

It was (for me) more about the wonder of what it's like to be human, and him feeling the kindness of someone reaching out to him when he needed it.
I absolutely agree with you there. And like I said above, it also didn't sink any ships (contrary to what tumblr seems to believe... but I didn't stay long enough in crazy-land to confirm that it was a general believe or just that of some very vocal people) because I'm 100% sure that Cas would have reacted the same way had it been a very nice and gentle man.

Yes, this.

Why would it sink any ships?!
I can understand people thinking it was unkind of the show, towards shippers, was perhaps a way of negating ships, like shows sometimes do. Personally I don't read it that way, I believe they wanted to write about Cas having sex, couldn't do it with anyone who wasn't a woman, and that's all. They even did that stupid thing they think is fan service, and killed her right away.
But seriously? If a person slept with a woman, he can't be in live/attracted to/interested in sharing something with a guy?! Fandom, you know better than that!!!
