You know what I just realized?

That my embarrassment squick didn't kick in last night when Sam and Dean were butchering Wanted in the car. It's a HUGE embarrassment squick, I can't watch Monk without muting it and looking away from the screen at least twice an ep. But that scene right there? With them both HORRIBLY off-key and making asses of themselves didn't bother me even the tiniest bit. And I totally know why.

Because Sam and Dean are so completely in each other's pockets that neither one of them has the slightest bit of shame around each other anymore. If that had been pretty much any other two people from TV I would've been hiding my face.

ETA: Also? Sam looks completely five there in that scene, with that big, giggly smile of his. And the way Dean just kinda nods to Sam for the "WANTED!" backup makes you just know they've been doing sing-alongs since Sammy could make word-sounding noises.

Hee! I *love* that idea.

I was actually squicked, but I kept my eyes on the screen for the whole thing, and I'm really glad I did cos Dean's "eyes of quiet terror" thing was a total reward. :P

I love your reading of it, though, it helps :)

YES! Exactly. They passed a lot of road-trip time singing, and Dean *totally* made Sam sing the girly back-up parts and the 'whoo hoos' and stuff. Heeee!
Oh, boys.

I feel the same; during that scene in A Very Supernatural Christmas I had to turn the sound down and look away, I could NOT watch. But I really enjoyed that scene in the finale. :D :D :D

I hadn't realized that I felt the same way until I read this.

I have a HUGE embarrassment squick too. (It's one of the major reasons that I can never really watch The Office except in clips or with a finger on fastforward)

But, yeah, that was just sweet.
