Dean and the trench coat. Oh, dear.

I love the sheriff character! I kept trying to place where I'd seen her before, then I remembered her from a soap opera, and then she finally identified herself. I am guessing she and Bobby will come in to save the day at some point. And fall in love and live happily ever after. Fighting crime and monsters.

Dean and the trench coat. Oh, dear.

We got the chin wibble on that one. Nicely played as usual, Mr. Ackles.

On tumblr: "It's a shame Castiel dropped his trenchcoat when the Doctor swooped him away in the Tardis."

Seen on twitter. Heh.

Show's not real consistent with its canon. But they kind of act as one when they say they are hungry and a few strategically placed leviathan can keep the group fed.

It might be that they aren't 100% separate individuals. Mother-of-All showed the ability to blend her identity with her "children." Maybe these things got all mixed together when they were occupying Cas.

I think the show has gone from patterning itself on Gaiman's work to Mike Carey's Lucifer. The Leviathans are very reminiscent of the Jin En Mok from that series.

Admittedly, the descriptions of the Leviathan are cryptic, even for the bible.

Maybe the boss is the Leviathan of lore?

That was a nasty episode. Bye, Misha! Stop by and visit sometime! You totally still can. And we had appropriate wibble and Bobby calling him "one of your best friends" so I hope the pissy D/Cers are at least a bit calmed down.

Sheriff Mills didn't die! She didn't get to do anything massive, but her call to Bobby was golden, and good on her for making the call while fucked up on painkillers.

Oh, Sammy. Jared. Well done. I thought he did an understandable amount of lying, although I might have been more "He's here now, actually, over there, let me repeat everything he says" except--I'm the older sister, so I'd be precisely like Dean and there would be nothing wrong with me at all until something snaps. Losing Bobby and Cas in one week or whatever would just be too much, while his brother was falling apart.

Good on you, Sam! Y'all are fucked up with pain. Dean became the pain-giver, and that's how you know he was the real deal, the one that loved you. In the face of that, Luci has to admit he's not real, even though he's sticking around.

I love the doctor that is now a Leviathan, so I'm glad it looks like he'll be around next week. It should be a totally 3rd party episode, with both brothers unconscious.

Except--Jewel Staite and Sam! So, we'll see.

Bobby's house being burnt down Josses so many fics where the boys move in there after his death, or just with him period. Sadface. Now I'll never know the answer to the bedroom question.

I love how there was never a question that the hallucinating guy needed to stay sober or away from weapons. He's a hunter, for crying out loud.

I hope the trenchcoat is still in the car.

I swear I had something I was going to say!

Oh. Wait. Now I remember.

So, how much S&M Wincest is going to come out of this episode?

Dear D/C peeps: anyone can come back from the dead! And dude, you are totally close to canon! Buck up, little cowboys!

Dear D/C peeps:

I feel so validated! They almost spoke audibly of the love, there was a wobbly chin and sadface, and NO BODY AND NO ASH WINGS. Seriously. It's the biggest fic loophole ever.

I mean, if people can keep resurrecting Gabriel and wiping off his blemishes and sticking Sam's giant peen in his ass, this is no effort in comparison.

I had cats leaping on me for snuggles and kinda missed Sheriff Mills in the THEN, and was thinking "this lady patient is cool, she's so going to wind up dead after being badass" and then the nurse called her Mills, still didn't click, and I finally realized who she was a scene later, and then got really worried. But, it also helped explain why she didn't call security/the cops straight away.

I think I reached the conclusion that those peeps that I wished would cowboy up and ride off a cliff aren't fandom. They're the step in between casual viewer and fandom. Because I like to lie to myself, and also because I can't see how a shipper could be mad at the past two episodes. So many moments and tells the point towards Dean being epically fucked up over what is going on with Cas.

Also, HELLO! Dark show where all the supporting characters die and mostly don't come back except for the two STARS. Misha never should have been given top billing, imho. Maybe I'm just Jossed, but, loving a character and seeing them redeemed seems a surefire way to a quick death.

Honestly, if the last that we saw of **CAS** was him trying to awkwardly atone with Dean, and then telling him to run to save his life, I'm . . . okay with that. and Misha can come back and haunt us as the one eyed one horned giant purple people eater.

They're the step in between casual viewer and fandom

Really? I like to think of them as on the opposite, far end of fandom. They're the same people who want Sam and Dean's personalities to go back to how they were in season [early], or for Dean to stop crying (he REALLY doesn't do it often--we just fetishise it because it's so pretty), and just in general don't want things to change or characters to react to what's happening around them in any lasting way.
