My other half just wondered if Sam is an angel. That can't be, right?! I'm all ... DUDE. No!?!

I've wondered here if Sam has Lucifer's grace. Anna was human and she managed to suck in her grace and become an angel again. Anything's possible in SPN-verse.

I completely missed that, I'm sorry!

It does seem odd that it would still be called "grace" when it's Lucifer, but it is what it is, I suppose.

And that makes a lot more sense than Sam actually *becoming* an angel, actually.

I'd be surprised if someone could be usefully possessed of someone else's grace, but, hey, Show does like to surprise.

There has been a dearth of good D/C recently, and just about everything written in the wake of Exile On Main Street has been truly irritating.

Why you do me like this, people? At least bauble updated her noir piece. But her two Inception fics in the same interim were better.

Seriously. I started rageprufrock's epic Inception fic.

At least the D/C big bang starts next week! And the reverse big bang signups are out.

The Secret Angels has been...uh, random. At least the one writer warned for homophobic!John. But, shit, character bashing central. He's not a father who's stunned by his son's orientation, he's an outright hateful douche. Why can't anyone do anything interesting with that, if they have to write him resistant?

Then again, Secret Angels also gave us douchey homophobic Dean (before he gives in and has scorching buttsex) and random gooey threesomey Sam/Gabriel/Lucifer (which makes Ruby look like good decision-making).

I still haven't read the egg!fic, and you can't make me.

I've also noticed a lot more of Dean/Lisa Sam/Dean popping up on the newsletter. Was this not popular before? Because Dean/Lisa Dean/Castiel was all the rage over the summer, and this week...nothing.

I really don't get anyone/Lucifer. Well, maybe hatesex, noncon, or one of the demons. But I keep seeing Sam/Lucifer and occasionally Jo/Lucifer. I don't get either one, at all.

Last night I finally watched "Hammer of the Gods." It was better than I expected, although my expectations weren't grand. Yay non-Big Three deities! Boo on wacked out representations thereof. Man-eating Ganesha? Really?

I really liked Gabriel in this, though. And I could see a number of ways he could be brought back.

At least they did well with Kali and Baldur?

Watching part of the first Chuck episode today, I was really surprised that when confronted by the real existence of the Winchesters he said there was only one explanation: he was a god. And then proceeded to apologize to both of them for all he'd put them through.

Think Kripke planned that all along?

Think Kripke planned that all along?

Once he started apologizing for the hookman (or was it the bugs?) and the ghost ship, I kind of figured. So funny.

I love Chuck.

Think Kripke planned that all along?

Nope.

It doesn't all hang together well enough for me. It's the weak point in Swan Song.

I'm not entirely cogent enough to put together the argument against it right now, but basically his interim appearances don't mesh with omniscience for me.
