So I have a theory as to why Alternate Michael was so much more powerful than our main universe Archangels.

Notice how the battle between Alt Michael and Alt Lucifer tore their world apart, and yet Alt Michael casual toyed with Main Lucifer?

Notice how Alt Michael immediately recognized Main Lucifer as Lucifer, but Main Lucifer didn't know Alt Michael was Michael until he was led to that conclusion, and even then called him a knockoff?

I think Alt Michael didn't simply kill Alt Lucifer, but after besting him, absorbed his grace in order to further power himself up. Why? Well remember, Alt Michael had a beef with God and wanted to kill him, but he knew he wasn't strong enough to do so with just his own might, but maybe if he amped himself up? Eating Alt Lucifer's grace would certainly give him a boost. But I don't think he stopped there.

Notice how Alt Raphael is nowhere to be seen? Well, I suspect Alt Michael killed him and ate his grace too, seeing him as no longer useful as the war was now over. After all, Alt Raphael was a useful general when Alt Michael had hordes of demons, possibly including Apocalypse World's Princes of Hell and Knights of Hell, to deal with. But with the enemy gone, Alt Raphael would no longer be a useful soldier, but instead a potential rival for power, since he's one of the few beings left in that universe who could even REMOTELY challenge him. So he'd want him dead either way, why not consume his grace too, so he could get even more powerful when he eventually caught up with his old man?

It's also possible he hunted down Alt Gabriel and did the same to him, but based on how genuinely surprised he was to see Main Gabriel, I suspect he was never able to locate his universe's version of his baby brother to snack on.

This theory explains why he's so much stronger, why he was hard for Lucifer to recognize, and why he'd be so sure he could handle his old man, God. God and four Archangels was enough to handle Amara, so maybe one Archangel, fueled by the grace of two more, would be enough to challenge God. That's what I believe Alt Michael thought anyhow.

What are your thoughts?

I started watching SPN in 2015 (I was 15 yo). From that year on, every year, I watched the new seasons. Supernatural helped me through highschool and the first part of the pandemic. Then I watched it again and again and again while I was struggling with university (just like now).
Since I was 15 my favourite character is always have been and will always be Gabriel. So you can imagine my absolutely mental breakdown I had when I saw him die in S13. So my headcanon that now, at 26 yo, I still strongly believe in, is that he didn't really died. It was his last trick, to fool everyone: the angels, the demons, the winchesters and even god himself. It was his last trick to be finally free from a family who didn't love him the same way he loved them, free from the brothers who, at the end, he grew fond of.
Don't get me wrong, I love how he sacrificed for them, but I am to fond of Gabriel to believe he is dead lol.

I didn’t get why people shipped Destiel before but oh my god

NO SPOILERS: I just finished episode 17 of season 8 and just had to talk about it (none of my friends watch supernatural lol)

before i started this show all i knew about it was about the fandom and specifically the destiel ship. my ex in high school wrote destiel fanfic (surprisingly didn’t get spoiled on anything from them lol) and it’s been mentioned in a few videos i’ve seen on youtube. as i’ve been watching it i’ve definitely seen where people were coming from with the ship but until now i didn’t really get it. then i got to that fight between him and castiel over the angel tablet and just oh my god. i burst into tears when Dean said “i need you”, that whole speech had me tearing up. i know probably none of its intentional, at least at this point, but fuck.

Hello! I am looking for a Gabriel ff. I think a lot will be about him and Sam and it's okay, but I also look for something just about him.
Anything you have is welcomed!

Idk how to word it but anything where something really bad happened to Sam in the past. Like idk he abused? Assaulted? Something like that and Dean's only just now finding because Sam hid it from him. I am really craving this rn so drop your best recs!

Hi all! I would be so happy if anyone can suggest me some good Saileen fics, as I'm about to finish the series I ship them so hard and need to find fics about them!! Thank you!

(I'm open to fics in english or german)

Give me your best and favorite Sam centric fics. Sabriel or Sastiel pairings are fine but I prefer Gen works. Also any fic, like angst or fluffy. Short or long is fine. Just as long it's focused on Sam

I was going through the spn episodes and I realized both season 15 and season 12 finales are two different episodes for me

Basically there's no 15/20 and 12/23👀

What are the episodes that don't exist to you?

I'm new to SPN fics and am coming from HP fandom. Anyways, I'm rewatching the series (on season 6, haven't seen 13-15 at all) and also looking for fics. I was wondering if there were any good fics with the following vibes:

1. Where Dean is raised from Hell but has amnesia. Maybe he doesn't know his brother, know about monsters, etc. How/when does he reunite with his brother? How does this change the story?

2. Where Dean is raised from Hell and Castiel accidentally left him with a bit of grace. Does this lead to developing extra powers? Wings? Angel Dean? Preferably unintentional, but I can't be too picky lol.

• I read megonagall410's Love, Fate and Prophecy HP/SPN series and loooved it, so something similar with Dean??

3. What if Sam was taken as a baby? Or they grew up apart and not knowing about each other for some reason? When/how would they meet again?

4. What was Dean up to between S4 and S6? I know he tried the white-picket fence life, but what if there was more?

5. What if no demon would make a deal at the end of S2?

6. What if CPS managed to take them away from John?

Prefer long fics. No wincest. If Destiel then slow burn.

Just like the title says: I randomly decided to log back into Wattpad just to see what was up (Newsfeed is back so I had to check it out) and also decided to see what SPN fanfics are on there. I haven't really faithfully used Wattpad in years– AO3 is my goto now.

The SPN fanfics on Wattpad (very generally described) are legit just the same formula of an OC (every one I've seen has been a girl) who is either a sister, daughter, or lover to the Winchesters. And of course, there are a few Destiel, but the OC female insert beats that by waves. It's such a huge difference from the AO3 fics where I find the vast majority to be more canon character focused. I feel like www.fanfiction.net is a mix of the two, but also leans more towards the AO3 side of being more canon character focused with original stories or AUs.

What's up with that? Is it the age demographic differences (I find that a majority Wattpad fanfic writers tend to be tweens to teens (ik I was when I first started on my fanfic journey)? Is it the reputation of the site? I wouldn't say it's the age of the sites because Wattpad started up in 2006. Or is it just the culture of the sites being different?

I'm not even really looking for answers I guess. Just something I found interesting.

Hola! Vi un fanart precioso donde Sam es adulto y Dean es su hermano pequeño.
Traté de buscar en ao3, pero no me manejo en las etiquetas, no pude encontrar nada así.

Alguien tiene una recomendación que cumpla esta inversión de edades?

gracias!
