'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

...yeah, that's Rosie. And if I'm not mistaken, it's from the period when her kids were grown and she had a "comeback."

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 get so very sad whenever I think about this episode and their life growing up. I mean, it's this HUGE trigger point with me that, as little as Dean, or even Sam, actually wants out of life, it's still more than they can have. So this kind of pushes every one of those buttons.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, show... When are you back from hiatus and then lie to me and say there are more than four eps if we don't get our writers back in time.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Plei is me.

Oh, Lee, I had totally not thought of that.

It only took me three viewings!

This was a very good idea, Anne. Thanks for suggesting it.

Because books.

as little as Dean, or even Sam, actually wants out of life, it's still more than they can have.

Yes, this. And the fact that Dean wants this one thing, now, when he knows it's going to be his last Christmas...

The outsiderness of them is so total.

Awesome idea, Anne. Thanks!

Thank you, Anne! Now start planning what day we should do the next one!

Cass, we can discuss that in email, yes?

We can.

And I just realized that I have purchased adult things for people I wasn't going to be adult with. Maybe it's the Winchester version of The Sex Talk. Um, the graphic novel version?

I get that too, Plei, but then I step back and look at it, and they've made other choices.

They need to know they can choose some of the good things, too. That a life of service doesn't have to mean a life of total self-denial. I don't think they know that. In a weird sort of way, they're monastic, separate from the world they've chosen to protect. I think there's been a type like that in almost every culture. And most of them chose it for themselves.

That Sam and Dean were trained into it rather than approaching it as adults, yeah, that's sad. But at this point, either or both of them could quit. Or slow down, make time for a life. They've chosen not to.

All right, deadline, ticking clock, demon heir apparent. Not so much with the choice right now. But there have been, and there will be points where they could choose something else. Or at least a compromise with something else. I'd like to see that.
