Because books.

Who's RAH?

This is my problem with not knowing what rules apply to which ... creatures, I guess. If the angels and God can know what much, what's stopping them from using their power to smite Azazel?

Here, you're saying they always needed Sam to be one of those kids, because Sam would fight using the power for the evil, and they could get the inside track through Dean, yes? So Castiel sent Dean back simply so he could get the full effect of what had happened, i.e. the "truth" he never knew. Yes?

I can see so easily what you mean about Home now. Mary was, in my mind, completely apologizing to Sam for making the deal, for all of it. And the way she addressed Dean, yeah -- much more like an old friend than her son, since he was finally the young man she had once met.

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

But is Sam a sacrificial mole? Is his role to be the beacon, or whatever, and he has no agency or destiny of his own?

'Cause. I need to talk to some angels, if that's the case. Even stern and implacable good guys can't damn a person with no possibility of redemption.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Is RAH Robert A. Heinlein?

Yep! From about 10-18, I read a LOT of RAH. But then I read a bunch of OTHER time-travel sci-fi, and then it got all complicated in my head. (I read Friday when I was in grade 5 or 6. I think, between that and Flowers in the Attic and a few other books I shouldn't have read, I scarred myself for life.)

Oh, Anne, that is such a good idea. I think I might pop in HotH right now, actually.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'll re-watch it sometime this week. I'm now intrigued by the idea of Castiel being somehow involved from way, way back.

Another thing to ponder: I wonder what angels think of Reapers?

If the angels and God can know what much, what's stopping them from using their power to smite Azazel?

It's against the rules of the Gehenna Convention?

But seriously, there seem to be a lot of rules and regulations attached to the powers of good and ill that don't apply to humans. (Which is standard convention for fictional angels and demons, at least in the books I read. I'm having Good Omens flashbacks.)

But is Sam a sacrificial mole? Is his role to be the beacon, or whatever, and he has no agency or destiny of his own?

My crack-addled theories aside, I think that's our arc this season.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Even stern and implacable good guys can't damn a person with no possibility of redemption.

It's so unfair considering how ready Sam is to believe in the side of good.

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

This is my problem with not knowing what rules apply to which ... creatures, I guess. If the angels and God can know what much, what's stopping them from using their power to smite Azazel?

I think smiting Azazel wouldn't necessarily stop the end game, since it's still going on two years after Dean killed him.

Oooh, true.

Yeah, I think I may have had too much wine to watch another episode (coherently anyway) tonight.

I think I'm going to play Faith because it's on the same disc, but I may not make it all the way through the episode.

It's so nice to be so satisfied with show again.
