Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

SPN: Sam gets a recurring love interest (she's pretty--could be Cara or Sarah, basically: [link] ) -- the few comments I've read have been predictably whiny, so I'm out.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm fine with it as long as she doesn't turn out to be Meg.

No, they did mention her name, Was definitely new. We see her first in the third ep, which is Jensen's.

Because books.

I'm actually excited about that. Sam needs some love.

Show has never done relationships well.

Oh, really? I think you said Show when you meant to say fandom. Show hasn't really done relationships. Seriously--what was so incredibly wrong with Ruby and Lisa? Except for the complaining about Ruby and Lisa and how she ruined Wincest and Destiel? And fandom has the added freedom to be able to complain about relationships that didn't actually happen, and lord knows...that totally happened. God forbid anyone looked askance at Jo or Rachel or or or...

Shut up girls!

Because books.

I just unfollowed someone on Tumblr because I couldn't take the ranting. "Why do they bother? Relationships are never going to work for Dean or Sam. And not only because, whether you ship Wincest or not, no one is as important to them as their brother is."

Um, we may know, or think, that, but the guys don't necessarily know it. Sam especially -- I think Dean has a clue, after what happened with Lisa. But Sam hasn't had an actual RELATIONSHIP since Jess, and that's a long time ago now.

Oh, and then there were complaints that Sam would even think of dating while Dean is in Purgatory. Which is probably true. But they've already made it clear that Dean and Cas will be back really early on in the season, so that argument has no legs.

/t frabbish frabbish fucking fandom

And now I can't get the tag to work. Argh.

Okay, that's weird about the tag.

t tag?

t /close?

Okay--don't put the dash before the t, put it after the space.

As for the ranting--if characters didn't try and do things the audience knew to be inevitable, fiction would be a measure more boring. And sometimes they will find ways to succeed that we couldn't have predicted. That's the magic of someone else writing.

t tries again

/t is successful?

What am I missing here? I feel completely brain dead tonight.

I was trying to make the closed tag. What am I doing wrong?
