I'm already getting numerous emails from my teammates. They're already making spread sheets and G-docs. I'm so not up for this. I think I'm going to tell them someone signed me up a joke, and then I'll just help you all do stuff.
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.
My personal opinion is that we'll lose Bobby at some point this season. I think it goes along with each of the brothers finally reaching some version of adulthood, a lessened dependence on each other for air, for the reason to keep plodding on. The student must lose (in whatever fashion) the mentor-father-sensei-guide to gain his own autonomy. They tried to do that with John's death, but quickly learned the guys still needed mentoring and subbed in Bobby as father figure. But along with the coping skills the brothers seem to be evolving independently, I think a step away from "dad" could be expected.
I also have always thought that Misha will be back after mid-season--is it March? or whenever spring sweeps are. Whether as Cas, newly-human and on earth for another try at goodness, or as another character altogether, I think he'll be back. Just IMO.
I hope they decide to partner Bobby up with whatshername (crap, Jody?) the sheriff instead of killing him off. I just like her a lot, and she could deal with Bobby the occasional hunter. And that would be a way to have them choose to be less reliant on him rather than his being taken away and their not having any choice about it.
I agree that Misha will probably be back. In all honesty, I haven't missed (not as in "Good riddance!" but just as in, "Oh, right! Forgot about him.") the character of Cas, though I like Cas and would enjoy seeing him again. And Misha. I do enjoy Misha. I just can't imagine they won't do some sort of more extended good bye to Cas, though the way they ended it was fine with me. But so many characters have come back in one form or another, it would surprise me if one of the most popular didn't.
Amy, did you get the latest mass email from Misha? Don't drop from your team. Two teams will get to go to Rome.
I like the idea of the sheriff taking Bobby in and him "retiring".
And that might disqualify your whole team?
I mean, do what you need to do, obviously. IJS.
Here's the Misha message:
Hey guys,
The good new is we got everyone sorted into teams at around 1 AM, my time. The not-so good news is when we sent out the 6000 team-assigning emails, the servers crashed. We are simply too big for the Internet thingy.
The reason you're receiving this email is that Constant Contact apparently sends emails through massive bandwidth channels whereas I have created pneumatic tubes.
We are now resending the messages very carefully, treating each message as if it were a tiny, wounded, fledgling bird. Before sending each batch, we are whispering words of encouragement to the messages and saying silent prayers. Hopefully this gentle, coaxing approach will help them reach you. As a backup, I have also been on the phone with a carrier pigeon supplier this morning.
You will get your team assignment. The items list will be posted. As malicious as i can be, i have not been changing the start time just to wear you down, though i wouldn't put that past me.
By way of consolation, we have added another trip to Rome. The winning team will be taken to Rome and, if your team submits at least 5 items, your name will be put in a lottery to join the winning team.
Also, we will be extending the deadline for the Hunt because of the delay in starting.
Remain vigilant! We will prevail!
Your not-so-humble servant,
Misha
I got Plei and a bunch of strangers. I sent out an introductory message...will see how things go from here.
I got Erin and Perkins and a bunch of strangers, and I'm trying to muster the mental fortitude to send out an intro email.
If you haven't received your email go here:
Enter the email you registered with and it will bring up your team.
Actually, there were two people from my entry who didn't get on my team. Kind of sad.
Another team member beat me to the email (thank heavens). It sounds like she and her sister are both on the team. Also, nothing in the email set off any RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY NOW alarm bells.
I'm itching to be Miss Organize It All but I started off with Hi, I'm from Colorado...how about you.
