SNORK.

That's not...oh, hell, yeah, that was funny!

I don't see Dean ever being an evangelical recovering drunk. But I can see him getting back to S1 -- drinking for fun, but not carrying around a flask or using it to get to sleep, or just deal with his life.

I just watched the last ep. It was well done and also gut wrenching. Good lord.

Bobby.

I guess, drinking for fun...I mean, if they totally dried them out--that is one of the things that would make me actually not like the show as much in theory, because I would feel a bit preached at unless they did it well.

However, they have a history of doing things in ways I like them, so you know.

I just like his boozy crutch, with the implication that pills might help him not think so hard about the bad things sometimes, without coming out and saying it.

Cafe De Labielle is doing an advent calendar again this year. I like today's. It's nice and quiet.

I liked today's, too.

I don't think they'll ever dry Dean out completely. In reality, someone like him might have to -- it might be that black and white. This character, though? It's too much a part of him.

And don't forget, even without drinking or pills, Dean always has his other crutches -- sex, Sammy, and guilt.

I know! I think I'm ready to say good-bye, actually. The episode was so perfect, and explained so much, and was just a great big sad Valentine to Bobby. But I wish they hadn't dragged it out. Now that I've digested it, I think it's time for him to go, and doing it at the very end of the episode really would have been the way to go, without the drawn-out fake suspense.

Anne and I were pondering the fate of Bobby today - will he go with the reaper or will he stay back and try to help the boys, thinking he can be a benevolent spirit?

We were also wondering how much did John's behaviors towards his children trigger Bobby's memories of his own father. He said once he'd almost unloaded some buckshot into John's ass.

In other meanderings, I've long held the thought that there was something more significant about Bobby Singer and Singer Salvage than what has been shown. Bobby had a rather remarkable propensity for many languages and was highly resourceful, not to mention the amulet he gave Wee!Sam many years ago which had a rather pointed story attached to it.

At the same time, God has been AWOL.

This reminds me on some level about the movie Dogma, with the angels Bartleby and Loki, and God trapped in the body of a coma patient. I'm rather intrigued by the idea that perhaps Bobby was an unknowing vessel for God.

Speaking of vessels for God, the latest reaper gave me heebie jeebies in that he looked a lot like Chuck. For a split second there I thought he was going to take Bobby immedieately unto his bosom. Or something.

I doubt it will ever be canon, but it would make on hell of a fic.

But why would God take a vessel and then just ... hang out?

I'm pretty comfortable with Chuck as God, the way it was written.
