I don't worry too much about good actors who aren't good people personally. Joan Crawford (My Mom who worked in Hollywood says "Mommy Dearest" made Crawford look nicer than she really was), Charlie Chaplain (who was not only a great artist, but wonderful politically, but apparently was really awful to his family).

There are spoilers for the last episode in the body of the post, if you haven't seen the episode yet. Otherwise, this is too cute not to share.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh goodness, Sail. Thank you *so* much, both for the discussion and for the pandas. Bless the panda, no really. **hearts for eyes**

St. Saleiri is one of my favorite Spike/Buffy writers, but she recently discovered SPN and is all enthusiastic about it. I find she has really smart and interesting things to say about it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
D/C BB posting starts tomorrow. Ooh, the onslaught. We post on the 7th. I have to stop fiddling by then.

I just saw a story come up on LJ with "graceturbation" as a warning. WTF?
And I forget who, but someone here wanted a video set to "Hallelujah" in honor of Cas. This particular story, set after 7.01 and 7.02, is actually called "Broken Hallelujah" and the summary is "I've seen your flag on the marble arch. Love is not a victory march. It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah." But I don't think that qualifies as unironic.

Because books.
I think "graceturbation" is when Dean is ... touching Cas's grace. Or Cas is? Although I'm not sure how either would work.
I read one story where Dean could see Cas's halo, and it was completely bizarre. He left a handprint on it accidentally, but then it also turned Cas on when he touched it or something.

I tried to skim the story to learn for myself, but it was too painful. So it shall remain a mystery. But the pairings were Dean/Cas, Sam/Gabriel, so I'd bet that you're right; it must have something to do with do with Cas' grace.

Unfortunately, I think it does.
Graceturbation is getting someone off with your grace. It's a dumb term, because it should be getting yourself off with your grace.
