CANON DIVERGENCIES THAT I WILL NOT BUDGE ON :
SAM IS DEANS HALF BROTHER. i operate under the headcanon shared deeply with silver that john only had one biological son and that was sam, whereas dean’s biological father is kip wesley. this remains largely unknown to either of them until the death of john in season two (s2), and even then its not something that changes their dynamic that much if at all. sam still see’s dean as his older brother and always will, nothing about their parentage changes that.\
sam’s powers never went away. he still gets weird premonition dreams but thats about it. not to say that the rest of his powers ever went away but they did weaken over time, everything except the dreams. those stayed and became more powerful, if anything. they got to their max strength when he was drinking demon blood, to the point where he could pinpoint exactly when and where a thing would happen and be there to stop it.
sam had the premonition dream about jessica for over a year before her death. he convinced himself that it was just trauma dreams from deep in his subconscious and his past haunting him, and therefor didn’t say or do anything aside from warding some various corners of his apartment. but nothing, of course, prevents her death. the dreams stopped for a little while but then picked right back up a month before her death and remained consistent every single night until her death.
abraham march is sam’s brother-in-law in and will remain so in most cases. there will be mentions of both warspun’s dean and abraham throughout threads, if you have any questions then please don’t hesitate to ask. they don’t officially get married until around the beginning of season eight, right before the events of the first episode and after dean returns from purgatory. before then they are purely dedicated to each other but practically married.
sam is a freakishly tall man. he is 6’5”. and i know thats not the biggest change but, nonetheless, it goes here because i’m not in any way associated nor obligated to adhere to j*red’s portrayal of sam, and thereby, as ron swanson would say: i can do whatever i want.
because i have a HUGE dislike of seasons 6-7, please don’t feel obligated to remember ANY of the details of those seasons. i don’t quite know how i’m going to change it yet but i CAN tell you that sam never checks himself into a hospital, never meets the girl he helps there canonically, and inevitably doesn’t lose his soul in season six either. while the concept of it is neat, i don’t appreciate how they went about it and therefore will be changing every single aspect. for now, seasons 6-7 do not exist in my mind. as it stands, the big bads remain the same from those seasons. please do not take this as an attack or a statement on how i view the effects of stress, stress disorders, or psychological torture. while they deserve their representation in medias, i feel like they were represented wrong throughout the series. and while i do very much support seeking help, again it was a poorly executed side plot that was there and gone again like anything else in supernatural they decide to drop when new writers come into the mix. i am not making this a debate, seasons 6-7 do not exist to me. period.
my sam is COMPLETELY SEPARATE from canon sam. don’t assume that just because sam reacted a certain way to a specific situation / creature / person in canon that he will react the same way in threads. i am a firm believer that sam knows and acknowledges often that there is a gray area when it comes to monsters and monster hunting, and it is a shared belief between silver and i. not everything is to be killed. if your muse is a monster / creature of some kind within that universe then yes, they will still have a very strong and whispered reputation. yes, it is still fairly appropriate for your muse to be worried when or if they interact with sam and/or abraham. but within reason. sam isn’t going to hurt or kill a creature unless he has a reason to, and he isn’t going to threaten anyone unless they’ve done something to wrong him or provoked him first. sam ≠ john or johns vendetta against supernatural things.
i.e. sam was perfectly fine with benny. this whole not trusting a vampire thing just because he was a vampire didn’t sit right with me, especially because he was obviously close with dean and ultimately the reason that dean escaped. dean helped him for a reason and it’s not for sam to decide whether thats a bad thing or not. consequently, sam never set another hunter on bennys trail to keep an eye on him. while he didn’t have full faith in benny’s stay topside and didn’t trust him 110%, doesn’t mean that he didn’t hold out hope for him. again, it comes back to that gray area. it exists, even canonically. not everything needs to be killed.
another example is when he met abraham for the first time: he was more concerned that dean didn’t know about his immortality an/ord what he was than anything else. he was fine with abraham altogether, but he was more concerned that dean knew the truth than anything else.
sam learned sign language in high school and is one of the languages he is actually fluent in besides latin and spanish. he learned for his brother and has used it in multiple areas of their life since and with other people, including, eventually, eileen. some signs he will have forgotten, yes, from the lack of practice with them but he isn’t going to stumble over his “words” as he did canonically.
sam is still the vessel for lucifer but the whole “boy king” thing is icky and i hate it. there is no “boy king” portrayal on this blog. HOWEVER, i will welcome certain aus that can and will focus on the corruption of the soul by lucifer while in possession of the body. and while it is rare that i will write in this particular verse, i will have one set up where sam is actively possessed by lucifer.
there were a lot of hard habits that sam had to break before / while in college. a lot of things that followed him up until jess’s death and, obviously, after. there were sigils carved into little things that jess couldn’t see like book ends, the back of nightstands / the bedframe, the window sills. there were also painted symbols with holy water that he’d done over the main door (that he hadn’t kept up with, it likely needed done every other year or so), as well as holy water in sams nightstand drawer and prayer beads that he used on and off, though he always claimed not to be religious (and he wasn’t/isn’t, jess probably just assumed (if ever she saw it) that he was fighting a lot of religious trauma considering what he’d told her about his family, his father in particular).
in most instances of mine / silver's canon, sam has four children and not one. this is mostly within our own world and will likely remain the case should we write platonic leaning / non-romantic things with sam. in romantic plots with other people, obviously the children won't exist and we can determine the number of children. but as it stands, normal post series canon, sam has four children and all of them are mothered by eileen.
on a separate note, if eileen writers are not comfortable with this, that is A OKAY. i'm not here to force ship with anyone and i'm not here to control a dynamic. if you're not comfortable with it, we can do a separation from mine and silver's canon. most everything will be played by ear and i won't necessarily ship with every elieen.
