many cultures believe that angels smell like flowers, usually roses, and you’ll know you’re in the presence of an angel if you suddenly start smelling flowers
I bet Dean had been smelling roses for years and subconsciously associates it with Cas
This whole episode breaks my heart. So much of it is just dean watching Cas when the angel can’t see him and either looking fond or heartbroken or both at once. Gah this episode. THIS EPISODE.
“I was born with a lot of nervous energy. I’d write letters to my future self - ‘Dear Hayley, now that you are 18 have you written your first novel yet? Have you made your first film?’ I had an obsession with my future.”
