ponderings from a ponderous person

whitereflectionSo, reading a little meta, and it just makes me wonder. At this point, is Sam'n'Dean fixable? (Or Sam/Dean, if you're one for that). I mean, honestly fixable? Like can they come back from where they're at now, or even if it is fixed, will it be Sam & Dean instead of Sam&Dean?
I saw so many points where there seemed to be really big cracks between them in s5, but I never felt like if things were fixed that they couldn't be Sam&Dean again. But seeing things in s6, I wonder. Has it gone too far? And that's just based off the supposition that things would start to be fixed right away--what if this is something that continues to be dragged out, perhaps even the entire season? (No spoilers there, just supposing/theorizing) If this continues on, especially if it continues as a story arc the entire season, does that influence the possibility of a return to Sam'n'Dean as the time of this brokenness is prolonged?
I guess I just wonder, reading a tiny bit of what other people are hypothesizing, if Sam can be 'fixed', and if so, if the damage that has been done to their relationship, to trust and to real true love (familial or otherwise), can be healed, or if the fix will be the classic too little, too late.
Pardon the repeated posting today. I'm actually kind of anxious about tonight's episode and nervous about where they're taking things, so I'm kinda just babbling in hopes that I quit dwelling on it. Because I am lame and spend hours (or more than >_> ) worrying about fictional characters in a TV show. Yeah.
And I'm glad I'm so into J2 fandom, because honestly that's close to all I've been reading fic-wise of late. There just seems to be...less Sam/Dean out there lately and a hell of a lot less gen Sam'n'Dean h/c fic. And what h/c fic there is is so often Dean-centric. It's like either people don't like Sam so they don't focus on him or if they're still supporting him are so unsettled by the way things are right now it's affecting their ability to write him/write about him.
