Well, that's the thing -- I wouldn't be embarrassed to tell my mom Sam with Madison or even Sam with Ruby was hot. That's just good plain sense, for me. I think she might even get Dean tapping the clip in Croatoan (which melts me).
Telling her about Cas beating up Dean? Or even -- fuck, I just remembered this -- Dean going apeshit on the vampire in Bloodlust? Not happening.
Whoa, Freudian slip there, or something.
I mean, who wants to watch that?! Except I do, so very much.
Now you sound like the Damien-Dean dialog.
Dean: No, I am not a fan. Okay? Not fans! In fact, I think that the Dean and Sam story sucks! It is not fun, it’s not entertaining, it’s a river of crap that would send most people howling to the nuthouse! So you listen to me. Their pain is not for your amusement! I mean, you think they enjoy being treated like circus freaks?
Demian: I'm not sure you get what the story's about.
Dean: That so?
Demian: In real life, he sells stereo equipment. I fix copiers. Our lives suck. But Sam and Dean. To wake up every morning and save the world. To have a brother who would die for you. Well, who wouldn't want that?
In The Real Ghostbusters, Dean says (paraphrased) Our lives aren't thrilling or exciting or fun. We put up with crap you can't even imagine, and are scared spitless a lot of the time.
And Damien says, to wake up every morning and know you're going to do some good in the world, and that you have a brother who'd die for you--who wouldn't want that?
THANK YOU, ita! Yay, for the actual quote.
Everybody keeps calling him Damien! Perhaps it's because I'd totally intended to call my firstborn son (should that weirdness have happened) Damien, but it's Demian. I even email fic authors to correct them.
Oh, sorry. I went right to a VD place and got confused. Um.
I totally get both POVs there. It sounds like unrelenting misery. But ... the misery is part of the point, and it's what leads to such incredible sacrifices and such love.
Can you go to bat for Anson Weems, too, ita? I've been losing that battle since Season two.
New game? This is the kind I love best.
Five movies, TV shows, or books Sam and/or Dean loves.
Stick to one category, though! PERKINS.
Can you go to bat for Anson Weems, too, ita?
I'm debating Henrickson and Shirley-correction. But there's so much! At least Demian barely comes up.
Weirdness, I read a fic with "Cass" the other day, and ouch. Except, apparently that's how they abbreviate it in the scripts and books. So we're all wrong.
