I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Why isn't there fanfic about this?

I avidly support (1) the notion of DB Woodside appearing on Show in any capacity, but most especially in a have-sex-with-Dean capacity. Maybe with Dean and Castiel. And Sam. And...Ngah...(2) the notion of fanfic pertaining to the above, possibly with Robin Wood in a crossover.

In conclusion, I should like to subscribe to your newsletter.

Alternatively, that might just have to go on the list of fics-I=need-to-write-after-finishing-the-current-surprisingly-long-SPN-story. Because - the hotness!

Oh, also John had actual military training in not breaking during torture. Or I assume that as a former marine he had some.

You know, I was just pondering... when did we get to a point where we take everything that demons say as The Truth? And by we, I think I really mean Sam and Dean, but I also did not even have the thought that Alastair was lying until I read it in here. How have we negotiated ourselves to a point where we/Sam and Dean are just taking whatever a demon (reminder: evil!) at face value.

(I know why Dean believes, because Dean likes to torture himself. (It's why he was so good in Hell.))

Well, I don't believe what Alastair said about John. . . and I have some doubts about what Castiel confirmed because he may have received the information from Uriel who had ulterior motives.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

There is the fact that John and Dean both ended up in Hell via altruistic deals to save the lives of someone they love... I can see how either would be good for breaking the first seal. But I don't think we can trust Alastair's word when he's trying to find the most horrible things to torment Dean with.

One thing I credit Heyerdahl's performance for: despite the spoken emphasis on repeated bodily harm, he made it pretty clear that physical pain means nothing to demons and that it's the psychological torture that they're really all about down below regardless of the racks and so forth. The writing has been a little too face value about what actually goes on in Hell, but the actor saved it for me.

Wow, all of you were much more satisfied with Heyerdahl that I was... that voice in and of itself was enough to throw me out of the scenes. It seemed so overdone, overemphasized, and blatantly exaggerated that I couldn't focus on anything else. Obviously, YAlistairMMV.

I had the same problem, Morgana. It was focusing on Dean/JA that allowed me to get through the scenes and relate to them somehow.
