Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

de_nugis has posted a short story that's a quick interpretation of what Sam's headspace might be, as Dean's uncovering the mystery.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That story creeped me out in a way I don't feel comfortable with. Show, please don't make Sam bonkers like that.
I'm not sure, in general, why I'm caught up on SPN soul-taking to date being like Buffy, where it's something you can remove from a living person. It just keeps being the impression I get. Well, if they bring Crowley back and follow up on Bobby's, I guess I can find out that once and for all.
But I totally read this week as Balthazar as having taken Aaron's soul from him right then, and then given it back--and that taking the soul was what left the mark.
I suppose I could watch it again.
I've found one Balthazar/Castiel and one Dean/Balthazar/Castiel, but neither were particularly interesting.

My take on it is that the soul remains in the body until death, but is somehow tagged so the purchasing party can claim ownership when the person dies. I think the metaphysics in Supernatural go with the soul being the person and the body just being a shell, whereas on Buffy the soul was one component of personhood, that the others could theoretically function without.

Sumi mentioned elsewhere that apparently the leather jacket has been lost.
Ultimate sadface.

Yes, there was a wardrobe TRAGEDY on the way to a photoshoot.
This is scoop from the Chicago con. They shipped a bunch of Sam and Dean wardrobe to a photoshoot and lost it all. Including Dean's leather jacket which was a one-of-a-kind resale shop find.
I'm sure that they have people out looking for another but we may never see him in it again.

I have the vision of some crazy fangirl sitting and stroking the thing and muttering nutty nothings into its worn creases.

I'm picturing Misha emailing a minion, "Damn it, you were supposed to go for the shipment with the trenchcoat in it. Bad minion!"

Oh, they got the trenchcoat: but it was replaceable.
(BTW, my friend says that that having seen Misha at the con - she is ready to be one of his minions.)
