I would guess Dean's favorite "vegetable" is the potato (fried, mashed, hashed, whatever), but I can see him loving corn on the cob in the summer. Which is also not really a vegetable as much as a starch, but still.

I want to figure out what Sam's guilty pleasure food is. Like, fried Twinkies or something, which he'd never admit to or eat in front of Dean EVER, but he dreams about them sometimes.

Hamburger garnishes also have their places, and whatever goes into relish. Also onion rings (here we'd have to part company).

Ah, Sam, there's so much I want to know about you. You too, Dean, but really...Sam. Part of the huge gut punch of Swan Song was the added intimacy of finding out some of the things they did between cases. Ball games! Concerts! Stargazing! Boys!

::sigh::

Ball games! Concerts! Stargazing!

YES! I get why we don't have episodes that are strictly, "Let's watch Sam and Dean hang out and have fun!", but I do love knowing that there is more to their existence than a laptop and pay-per-view porn and magic fingers.

Also, onion rings are delicious, stop that now.

I can see John slapping some frozen hamburger patties in a pan and making them, but croquettes of any kind is a stretch for me.

Oh, I didn't mean I see John going to that much trouble cooking. I just think it was cheap and readily available fish in spoilage-resistant packaging that you could eat right out of the can like corned beef, so they probably did. I don't imagine he did more than brown it in a skillet like hash.

OMG, I just totally read the latest Twilight movie (well, the consummation scene, anyway) in D/C, pretty much.

The start of the story was really overwrought--I only kept reading to see if a) there was a spell and b) if this was the sort of author that wrote porn. Yeah, they write porn. The sort of porn where at the very least both of Dean's wrists are broken, and he's totally down with it. At least Cas isn't, so one of them has some sense.

But there's no spell. Dean totally has these sorts of thoughts all by himself:

Dean's breath caught in his throat as he envisioned Castiel's full-fledged smile: eyes crinkled at the corners, white teeth flashing and then – oh, God! – if Dean was lucky, dimples, honest to god dimples, would appear!

Guh... Dean thought, trying not to drool at the vivid memory. Who knew ol' poker face had it in him?

I'm trying to work out if there can be a verbal version of cafe de labeill...I mean, it's so much easier to look at a well crafted piece of OOC saccharine than it is to read one (not that this is--the writing is horribly purple). I guess OOC isn't the same sort of crime in art--not even not getting the resemblance is the same, if you hit the right sort of notes that she does--it's not like she's usually drawing Jensen, after all.

I dunno.

People weird.

Problem is, I want to know how Sam feels about Dean breaking his arms during sex, and to find out, I have to tune in for a future chapter.

Rewatched I Know What You Did Last Summer thru After School Special with bon last night. I need to check my files to see how high I rated Family Remains, but I suspect it was too high. Do not like. Feral children with excellent penmanship living in the walls? I dunno...

Dean and Sam were pretty useless too. I do expect there to be casualties, but Dean came off pretty inept here, and pretty simply lost someone on his watch, while he was being wrong about just about everything. Sam didn't do anything much wrong, but he also didn't do anything much.

Checking my notes, this is the one where Dean owns up about liking torture, so I guess it's not to be missed, but there aren't really any other great brotherly notes or continuity bits in it.

And I think I'm making some peace with Dean yelling like an idiot at the end of After School Special. I guess he was normally popular in high school and Sam wasn't? That was the role reversal? He just didn't feel like John's son much there...but I guess asking an 18 year old boy to be that in the face of hormones and peer pressure is a bit much.

Ah, well.

The J's at BurCon.

Roche and Shepard were on stage together and when Roche was pimping Grimm - Shepard said, "Isn't that on at the same time as Supernatural?"

(Got that story from Twitter.)

With Family Remains, I think I gave them some leeway for being off their game -- it's not a supernatural creature, and rather than having the victims safely off somewhere, they were right there, and in danger. That said, it's not a very strong episode, although I do still ache at Dean's angst when the uncle dies.

I thought Dean yelling at the girl at school was completely out of character, but I had a hard time with Brock Kelly's Jersey Shore interpretation of Dean from the start (not that he wrote it, obviously, but by then I wasn't buying young Dean very well anyway). I loved young Sam in that episode -- actually, grownup Sam is just as delicious, with the going back to his old teacher and his angsty angst and his faaaaace.

Hey, Patrick from The Curious Case of Dean Winchester was on White Collar! God, he (and his lovely accent) is so hot. I need to get on that Dean/Patrick porn someday.

You could even get away with making him the same character on both shows...
