  Summary

  Anders was right.

  Here's why.

  I started this manifesto about 8 years ago as a joke.
  Or rather, I wanted to have something substancial for my Cospaly.
  A bit more than a few catchphrases from the games; more than a leaflet or a pamphlet to wave at the uninterested.
  You know? More than the average Anders Cosplayer hands out at cons.
  I wanted to stand on a soapbox and... preach.

  That didn't really happen. Yet.
  Because I kept writing. And writing.
  Then life happened.
  And then I wrote again.

  And along the way, it stopped being a joke.

  And now I want to share.

  Summary

  Sam is the villain of Dean's story.
  There is no denying that.

  The end justifies the means, they say. But sometimes, it doesn't.
  What, if the price you paid is too high for what you got?

  Summary

  Love, in all its splendour, is at its core a very simple thing.

  Scholars, philosophers and poets have spent millennia trying to explain it and yet only the fool in love really knows what it feels like.

  The Ancient Greeks, though, knew love to be too vast, too complex for one definition alone. They studied love in all its intricacy and then went on to define it in eight different ways.

  Philautia, Philia, Storge, Ludus, Mania, Eros, Pragma and Agape.

  ~

  Dean reads a book on the eight forms of love and reflects on his feelings for one certain angel.
