"Bury your gays" is a lerary trope where LGBTQ characters e out or fd love only to die shortly afterward, and "Supernatural" has never succsfully avoid , to the disappotment of queer before Castiel died, "Supernatural" had a fan favore named Charlie, a non lbian character. Dean has some really homophobic l the earlier seasons. Even if Cas were to survive, even if he got a happy gay endg, 's still three episos out of 320.

The story is wrten om Sam’s pot of view, and two of the thgs which Sam unts as “evince” of Dean’s bisexualy the fic—knowledge of a gay bar lled “Purgatory” and “forced lghter when Sam had mentned him lookg butch”—are drawn om non elements. However, he still emphasiz that he is “not gay” and seems to shy away om discsg his relatnships wh men on romantic terms.

Other non male characters are also picted as bisexual and gay this fic, but the thgs rema “unspoken”, parallelg the way mastream media shi away om explic reprentatns of LGBT+ characters.

As poted out by the Daily Dot, given that Castiel was sucked to a hell dimensn right after clarg his love, the origal choice also led some to acce the show of followg the "bury your gays" trope (whereby gay characters are nsired dispensable—though this se, Castiel survived until nearly the seri fale).

Now a sophomore llege, he’s fally worked up the urage to read Cas’s the way, Dean disvers thgs he never thought he’d fd and learns some new thgs about himself that he didn’t want to unver. Castiel’s ath only sends after his nfsn of love brought a flood of bury your gays criqu, om the well-rearched to the vic.
