having an image of Dean - in an alternate universe - as a car salesman ... a good one
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Thank you, Austin! I love the simplicity of your rubber band theory as a way of explaining possibilities.
I had no expectations here of being given some concrete picture of Dean and Sam in an AU where catastrophe was avoided or delayed, I just wanted to hear ideas about who they might have become. As an adoptee, I find the whole "nature vs. nurture" debate of great interest, especially since having had children myself.
I've also read some meta and fic that suggest either, A. the brothers were blighted by the catastrophe in their lives, or B. the brothers' characters were forged in the fires of that event. The truth, as always, lies somewhere between. But I'm always interested in the road not taken.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I'm curious if Dean is naturally kind of off kilter when it comes to social skills, or if it's just due to upbringing, or some of both.
I suspect he's wired in such a way that he'd always be a little out of the norm, but that he'd fake it better in an alternate world. (And, actually, that he's the age and personality type that would fall into tech fairly naturally, had he grown up with computers around.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I also wonder how much of that is JA's natural social awkwardness, too.

Probably not much, based on Smallville and Dark Angel.

I think the social awkwardness is misperceived, actually. He seems as poised, and articulate in interviews and at PR events as any other "celebrity." Not to say it's the favorite part of his job, but he seems fairly gracious about it. It seems to be the random on-the-street meet he's wary of, and with good reason.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I suspect he's wired in such a way that he'd always be a little out of the norm, but that he'd fake it better in an alternate world. (And, actually, that he's the age and personality type that would fall into tech fairly naturally, had he grown up with computers around.)I wonder what his user name here would be...
Actually I really can't picture Dean without the Demon. So much of who Dean is, is wrapped up in that to me. Even in the pilot flashbacks because the writers knew exactly where they were about to go. Now I have to think about this more.

Art Crawl!!!
Promo pictures for the season 2 premiere!!!!
If you click you will be spoiled for the KICKASS title of the episode.
Although, I didn't find the pictures themselves that spoilery.

I clicked. The pictures aren't spoilery. Seriously, I don't know if I can wait a month.

What do you think - too early for them to show a promo tonight?
