After the appearance of [[Castiel]] in Season Four, the pairing of [[Dean/Castiel]] offered a non-incestuous [[Slash]] pairing, and attracted a new crop of writers to the fandom.
Some communities on [[Livejournal]] and message board forums ban mentions of [[Wincest]]. For example [[Supernatural.tv]] states "This community as a whole has nothing against homosexuality, but this is a site about Supernatural--two brothers with no romantic feelings for each other--and changing their relationship changes the characters we tune in to watch every week. As another site states, fans borrow characters when they use them in creative work. If fans change major aspects of characters, they might as well create original characters."
[[Zachariah]] is less subtle, when trying to make sure a resurrected [[Adam]] doesn't side with the Winchesters, he says: "So you know you can't trust them, right? You know Sam and Dean Winchester are psychotically, irrationally, ''erotically'' codependent on each other, right?" <ref name="five18">[[5.18 Point Of No Return]]</ref>.Even [[Lisa]] says to Dean of his relationship with Sam: "You two have the most unhealthy, tangled up, crazy thing that I've ever seen". <ref name="six06">[[6.06 You Can't Handle The Truth]]</ref>
In [[8.04 Bitten]] students [[Michael Wheeler and Brian Wilcox film Sam and Dean who are posing as FBI agents investigating a case. Michael comments to Brian on first seeing them: "Is it just me or are you getting a workplace romance vibe from those two?" Later, after watching Sam and Dean in a cafe, he reports back to Michael:"They just sat and talked about how they’ve been apart for a year. You were probably right about that whole office romance thing."
