We saw Gabe's wings outline etched into the floor.
If he did not die, but was in hiding since then, he's going to need a good excuse for punking out on the end of the world.
Let me go find reference pictures of Roché. Man, if I did RPF I'd totally ship Collins/Roche. They both had such interesting alternative upbringing (Sebastian's homeschooled and lived on a boat, to Misha's living in a station wagon).
I'd go with Richard Speight/Chad Lindberg. Speight's tweets about the flight to Rome alone were hysterical.
I think half the point was to be bad in all respects, accents included.
Balty ep up next? Hmmm.
I've been wracking my brains as to what Balt would be using the souls for. Currency? A power unto themselves, like the weapons he had been stockpiling (and has now given up)? Is it different from damned souls, the souls he takes? Is there more power in pure souls? Does a deal with an angel taint the soul? If pure souls are powerful, what does that mean about the souls in Heaven? Could desperate angels (Raphael) use Heaven's residents as weapons to wage war? As currency, what do they buy? And why are they worthwhile to the buyers?
I don't know if my putative RPS pairing is Coche or Cooche or Rollins. Hmm.
Okay, found Sebastian pictures, now to find the right Gabe picture.
I read today that the portmanteau for Jensen and Misha RPS is Cockles. I think Misha might have been discussing it at the con.
Cockles is a charming fledgling ship. I think Mishalecki is the #2 behind J2, though.
And, yeah, I pay a lot of attention considering I don't partake.
Aw, Mishalecki is so cute! Heh.
I could buy a return simply because Gabriel strikes me as the sort whose contingency plans come with contingency plans, and who would lurk in the shadows for a good long time just for the lulz.
If not for the fact that his trip forward in time was to a future with the Lucifer/Michael apocalypse fulfilled rather than the current situation, a past Gabriel skipping forward might have been an option for a reappearance.
They now have Speight snapping his fingers and making Snoop Dog magically appear in a Pepsi commercial, which makes me wonder if people at the ad agency are SPN fans.
I'm trying to make a piece of SPN minutiae float to the surface of my memory, but so far no luck: did Castiel ever reveal to anyone on Team Free Will that he was the one who let Sam out of Bobby's demonic panic room when he was detoxing?
