'War Stories'
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
I think that's why Jesse's one-off (when he was SUCH a smoking gun) bothered me.
I'm still holding out hope they'll revisit the Jesse idea, but I also got the idea that Jesse used his power in the end to deliberately and permanently remove himself from the conflict, giving destiny the kind of 'screw you' that Dean and Sam were not yet able to pull off.
I loved the idea, though, and I think it would be a shame if they didn't revisit it. Demons and humans breeding? There should be more Jesses around, really.
And didn't someone mention it's almost a nephilim thing, since all demons can be traced back to Lucifer, who is in fact an angel?
And didn't someone mention it's almost a nephilim thing
Ooh. Yes. Was it ever said that Lucifer was the only fallen angel, or did others fall with him? I've somehow managed to come up with head!canon regarding Azazel being an angel who was corrupted by Lucifer much as Lilith was corrupted.
Current fic peeve: "whilst". Just don't.
Why? It's a word.
It's always seemed pretty British to me, though.
Well, if it's a cultural slip, I won't beat on it too much.
As a non-Brit, to me it just reads archaic, especially when none of the wordage around it seems to match.
As long as you don't give it to me from the POV of a non-British character, I don't mind (eta: it's not archaic, just across the pond). It's just a word. But there are American words that are inappropriate for the boys too. I just read Dean saying "whirligig" and it kinda stood out for me. But maybe that's more common than I imagine.
I've seen whilst in several different narrative POVs, some of them might have been the boys, and they may have even said it out loud.
Then someone needs some Ameripicking, stat.
Britishisms throw me out of a story so fast, especially when it's Dean or Sam's POV. I read a lovely one yesterday, and got to a place where Dean was talking about "sewing on a proper button" and I blinked.
It's such a stupid little thing, but there are so many Dean!words and ways to phrase things, and that's just not one of them.
