Season 3, Round 2, Bracket #1/2
It's just, I wish you would drop the show and be my brother again, 'cause... just 'cause.
I lost my shoe
Family don't end with blood, boy
Then we'll find a way to save you

Season 3, Round 2, Bracket #2/2:
I don't deserve to go to Hell!
I'm Batman.
What do you say we kill some evil sons of bitches and raise a little hell?
You can't save your brother. No good comes out of it--just pain, and blood

Bracket #1

• Drop the show – Love this Sam quote to pieces
• I lost my shoe – Love this Sam quote to pieces
• Family don’t end with blood – right on Bobby!
• I don’t want to die – this was tough but I have to go with Dean asserting his self worth

Bracket #2

• I don’t deserve to go to Hell – Dean asserting his self worth again wins over funny
• I’m batman – I don’t care for the Henricksen quote. It’s not really pivotal or that funny. Surely there’s a better Henricksen quote?
• Evil sons of bitches – even if it was overplayed in the opening sequence all the time
• Bring him back – Oh Sammy!

It's amazing how some of my votes change depending on which quotes are up against each other. Also, ita, are you *trying* to kill us?! Some of the choices here are just EVIL.

S3, R2, B1

• Be my brother again.: I love Sam's honesty here.
• I lost my shoe.: Possibly the most puppylike Sam will ever be.
• Family don't end with blood, boy.: Bobby knows.
• Then we'll find a way to save you.: SAM.

R2, B2

• I don't deserve to go to hell!: Finally getting it, Dean.
• Rest in peace, guys.: I love that Hendricksen did what he could for them, in the end.
• ...raise a little hell.: Dean's motto.
• Just...bring him back. Please.: I can't resist the vulnerability in Sam's voice there. He's SO broken.

Bracket #1
1) drop the show
2) lost my shoe
3) don't end with blood
4) okay good

Bracket #2
1) don't deserve
2) Batman
3) raise a little hell
4) pain and blood

Aieee. I want to lobby, but I can't even decide which way to lobby. I adore the I'm Batman quote, but the Henriksen quote makes my breath hitch every time. It's so damned sad. So damned too late. Best of intentions, and everything.

I hope he got a good heaven...

I can lobby someone else to vote for Batman, but I couldn't make myself do it. My vote had to acknowledge Henriksen. Just had to.

S3, R2, B1/2

• drop the show and be my brother again

• I lost my shoe.

• he’s a superhero

• I don't want to die.

S3, R2, B2/2

• Sam Winchester cries his way through sex.

• I'm Batman.

• Casey: Do you believe in god, Dean?

• Just--bring him back. Please.

I’m kind of purposefully staying away from codas about what happens after the dinner scene. The chances of SHOW picking up on that same thread that is in a coda are so extreme that I just can’t set myself up like that to knowingly have it go somewhere else. I don’t want to make up my mind to hate Season Six before it even starts.

“It’s a new dawn. It’s a new day.”

Also going to totally be a spoiler whore this year. I have to do it to have time to deal with any disappointment or surprises before they air. Especially if this is the last year. Those are so traumatic for me.

I am spoiler-free. Always have been. I don't mind if it seems like fair game, like the preview for next week or something, but I don't want to know important plot points, or surprise guest stars, or major arcs. I love being unprepared.

I don't skip ahead to the end in books, either, though.

I am aspiring to be Amy. I have been spoiler-free so far and will endeavor to stay as such.

I've just always been that way? I found the interwebs too far into Buffy and Angel, for one thing, and I don't think back then I would have known such a thing as a spoiler was available.

So I just avoid a lot of places over the summer.
