Secondary, and tertiary, characters are fine, and I love it when they're nicely fleshed out, but in this kind of show, you have to keep focus. It's not ER where you can have endless characters and storylines floating around.
I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[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 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
I felt his death was essentially gilding the lily... we'd already had the shocking deaths of two supporting characters in the episode, one sympathetic and one who'd been fairly important to the Winchesters (more so than Rufus, actually). I think that should have sufficed.

What I didn't like was how they staged his death. It had to be part of a narrative trick to fake us out about whether Bobby was dead. It had a whiff off "Don't worry, only Rufus died."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Random bits from the Jus In Bello convention so far:
- Misha's mother had his brother hid weed in his underpants
- Misha got arrested in a bank robbery for being in the wrong place at the wrong time (reading a book on the roof)

Misha's going to need to write a comprehensive memoir one day, I think.

I think Misha's mom might be as entertaining as her son.

His brother was five at the time.
Misha becomes more and more plausible.

Okay, that's a little fucked up.

Well, at least he wasn't complicit?
I got nothing. It's more harmless than the ball of hash my first boyfriend ate when he was a toddler.

I think hiding anything in your kid's underpants is questionable, although obviously I don't know the details.
Leaving hash out where your toddler can eat it is also a big no-no, both for harm to the kid and incredible waste of good product.
