Castiel quickly and easily became a fan favorite when he appeared in Supernatural in season 4. Over the years, the clueless angel who’s capable of smiting has given fans plenty of material to work with in making memes. From his inability to understand humans to his all too relatable moods, Cass gives fans a lot to latch onto.
From being a hipster angel to his clear, undeniable bond with Dean Winchester, the fans have made memes for a Castiel for every occasion. Here are 10 memes about the awkward, lovable angel that will leave you crying on the floor with laughter.
10 Bones/Supernatural Crossover
Especially early in the show, Castiel never had a clue what Sam and Dean referred to in their many conversations about stopping the apocalypse. The protagonist of Bones also had a reputation for being socially out of touch.
Fans of both shows would get nonstop laughs if there were ever a crossover between the two series. The eye-rolling from Booth and the Winchesters over these two brilliant knuckleheads would be off the charts.
9 Dean’s Second Husband
Whether the writers of Supernatural explicitly state it in the show or not, many fans have already accepted the romantic pairing of Dean and Cass, a.k.a. Destiel, as true. Castiel insinuating that he would murder Dean’s first husband to become his second is hysterical.
Though the fans can’t help but wonder: Why wouldn’t Cass just marry Dean first before anyone else? The mystery of delaying their marriage is part of the hilarity of this meme.
8 Hipster Angel
Castiel has been through many transformations, but his original change occurred after he released the Leviathans on the world. The power went straight to his head and turned him into an insufferable power monger that believed he was God.
To forego angel status and instead become a deity is an incredibly hipster move. Cass is no stranger to going against the grain, so it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise to fans of the show.
7 Destiel Love Story
Dean hitting on Cass with a Taylor Swift song seems on-brand for the character. Castiel’s utter lack of pop culture knowledge turning that proposal into a logical conundrum also plays perfectly into the angel’s character.
The mashup of Taylor Swift lyrics with the hilarious Dean and Cass moment makes this meme absolute perfection. Only Castiel could question an attractive man flirting with him and respond with follow-up questions.
6 Cass Still Doesn’t Get Flirting
At a certain point, it must become a game, imagining Dean come up with the cheesiest pickup lines only to have Castiel respond in turn with rationale. Fans love the combination of a punny character paired up with one who appears to lack a sense of humor.
But it’s that very cluelessness that makes Castiel so endearing to his humans and his fans. Here’s hoping he never fully understands flirting so that fans keep making memes.
5 A Castiel for Every Mood
Stoic characters whose faces do not change from one mood to the next are often great fodder for comedy. Just ask any fan of Brooklyn Nine-Nine about Captain Raymond Holt.
What makes these characters even better is when their loved ones and closest companions learn to read the nuanced changes in facial expressions to decipher those moods. Castiel may look straight-faced to the untrained eye, but in truth, his change in expression speaks volumes.
4 Everybody Loves Cass
Portraying Sam, the Winchester most often associated with being in touch with his feelings, as the Supernatural fan base is an apt choice. It also makes total sense that Castiel’s reaction to being smothered with affection would make him super uncomfortable.
Fans of the show love Cass so much that they want to do everything in their power to protect him from the evils the writers put him through. Castiel would probably prefer they didn’t hug him so hard though.
3 Forever Memes
Castiel’s energy in this meme portrays the show’s fandom’s dedication to a series that can take over their lives. Although the show is finally coming to an end after 15 seasons, it doesn’t mean the memes have to stop.
There’s a running joke on Tumblr about how the Supernatural fan base has a meme for every situation. Castiel knows that can’t end just because the show is ending. The SPN family is always and forever.
2 Castiel Needs a Hug
Castiel is a mood for those who don’t understand or are unaccustomed to affection. Maybe this meme is a little sad and will leave fans more crying than laughing. But the humorous sentiment of being seen is there.
It’s also an extra touch of funny to see the show’s resident curmudgeon Bobby hugging the ever clueless Cass in a rare moment of tenderness. A friendly embraced shared by characters with supposed unfriendly natures is doubly hilarious.
1 Cass vs Castiel
While Cass is full of endearing wonder and confusion, Castiel is an intimidating angel of the Lord that will mess up demons in a heartbeat. This meme proves that like all good characters, Castiel contains multitudes.
The fans love every facet of Cass. Whether he’s a nerd that doesn’t understand common expressions or a serious warrior ready to tear out Crowley’s heart, he has taken the fandom by storm.
