I toed and froed on how to do this piece. First up, I was going to tell Dean's story in pictures... but I kind of covered that in Dean's Journal. Then I thought, I know, I'll get some really funny shots of him! Group them into fun faces. But...that seemed to miss out on so many gorgeous sad Deans or angry Deans or thoughtful Deans. So I wound up just getting some of my favourite screencaps of season 8 Dean. Episode by episode. And as it turned out, they kind of grouped themselves!
And because there's still a ways to go with this damned hiatus, I've split it into 2 parts...to drag out the enjoyment.
So without further adieu, and for no real reason other than in celebration of a spectacular face...here's part one of
Dean Winchester: A Season In Pictures - Part 1
Dean Winchester: A Season In Pictures - Part 1
WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN
AKA - OMG! PURGATORY DEAN IS HOT!
AKA - OMG! PURGATORY DEAN IS HOT!
Oh yes...do you remember when we first met Purgatory Dean...
No-one ever looked this good covered in blood and dirt...
But the transition back to the land of the living wasn't an easy one ---- even if it was pretty.
But thankfully, there are burgers and fries here... that's gotta help!
WHAT'S UP, TIGER MOMMY?
AKA - CAN WE HAVE MORE PURGATORY DEAN PLEASE?
Well...at least he's eating again, making up for lost time.
And back in the saddle...scoping out demons ---- looking fine.
And being adorable around Mrs Tran.
But Purgatory memories are never far away ---- for all of us!
(And apparently, they look like art... this is probably my favourite cap, ever!)
HEARTACHE
AKA - THE TAN!
It seems Dean's been getting a bit of sunlight...not so many midnight hunts?
Or he picked up a tanning bed habit when he took on the roll of Jensen Ackles in that show Supernatural?
Really...really brown...
And he seems ok with it...
And when he looks like this...Hell we're ok with it too.
BITTEN
AKA-WHERE'S DEAN?
The moment Dean understood Kate's plight...
The moment Dean remembered he had a vampire for a friend...
The moment Dean realised if he kept Benny alive, he really couldn't kill Kate...
The moment Dean wondered if he really said awesome too much...
BLOOD BROTHER
AKA-UGH!
Friends! Ugh.
Brothers! Ugh.
Friends meeting brothers! Double ugh!
Actually....... #*&@ UGH!
SOUTHERN COMFORT
AKA----- (I got nothing)
Dean wasn't very happy with Garth becoming the new Bobby ---- though he looked pretty being not happy.
Then this happened...
Then this...
Then this...
(Which was sweet)
But it all ended with this face ---- *sigh*
Now let's never speak of this again.
A LITTLE SLICE OF KEVIN
AKA - WAIT. WAS THAT CASS?
Wait. Was that Cass?
Wait. Was THAT Cass?
(I'm sure that was Cass... Stop staring at me Sam)
HO-LY CRAP!
Phew...I thought I was losing it for a minute.
Wait...how'd he.... (suspicious Dean is suspicious)
Let's just take a moment to appreciate suspicious Dean....
Ok. As you were.
HUNTERI HEROICI
AKA - IN WHICH DEAN GIVES GOOD FACE
The sturgeon...
The rarely seen smile and eye crinkle combo...
The Blue Steel
The WTF?
The why me...
These...
But let's just remember he also looks like this...
CITIZEN FANG
AKA - THE RUG BURN
Remember the story about Jensen and Jared and Misha mucking about in Toronto...
Rugburn (above his eyebrow)
They tried to cover it with blood...
VFX worked on the one on his chin...
But there was no hiding it from us!
TORN AND FRAYED
AKA - THE ONE THAT HURT TO WATCH
(note the chin burn)
*wibble*
*grinds teeth in frustration and throws things at TV*
*huggles*
*meep*
*ummm ---- was this supposed to be a happy ending*
*fandom*
Ok! That's the end of part one of this ridiculous journey through season 8 via Dean's face!
In part 2...expect smiles and hugs and rainbows!
See you soon! -sweetondean
