But when Sam died Dean sold his soul to the devil to get him back. That's pretty damn co-dependent.

SA

Missed where the person above pointed this out, but yes. It's really not any better.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
The difference to me is the Winchesters recognize their screwiness and actually face it, however badly, and the sparklepires don't.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Out of curiosity, have you watched the show?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
ayrt

Umm...yes. Does knowing that Dean sold his soul somehow imply that I haven't seen it? /confused

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Bargaining is a noted stage of the grieving process. The only thing separating Dean and a lot of bereaved folk is that for Dean, somebody actually came along to make the right kind of offer.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Except that's not the same thing at all. In Dean's world that kind of bargain was actually a possibility, and he knew it. Most grieving people don't actually have that option.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-11 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
And you assume they would no longer bargain if it were?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-12 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure a few would, but probably not most.

Maybe I'm underestimating people, though.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-12 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
The stages of grief aren't going to change just because angels and demons are popping up all over the place.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-12 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
No, that's not what I meant, I just...don't think most people would actually follow through on that option if it were given to them, but maybe I'm wrong.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-12 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
DA

I know a lot of people who would sell their soul for less than 'bring my co-dependant brother back to life'.

For example 'bring my mother back to life', 'don't let my mother figure die', 'make X girl love me' and things like that.

Or 'make me rich and famous' but that's a whole different kettle.

For as long as the myth of the deal with the devil has existed, there have been people who would gladly do it for the sake of a loved one. Even if their relationship was all healthy before the deal was needed.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-12 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
I think enough people would that it would constitute a variant of normal. Like second toes that are longer than the big toe.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-12 07:44 am (UTC)(link)
"my soul gone in a year" is a really abstract concept, especially if you've just, say, lost your kid.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-12 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Not to mention Sam's reaction when Dean went to hell, both in Mystery Spot and attempting to sell his soul when it actually happened.
