I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Oh Dean.

Whoa, my tolerance has gone way down in the past couple of years. I'm buzzed after only half a bottle of wine.

Because books.

Jesus, I'm still flailing. That was mostly just fun and funny and lighthearted (and boy, if there is a S8, I'd sign on for a few more Garthings), but then the end! I actually shrieked. I thought they would keep drawing it out, but no! There was Bobby, looking like he misses his boys so fucking much.

And DEAN! Dean and his trembly lip asking if Bobby was there! Not to mention that Sam -- even tortured by Lucifer and grieving his second dad (and one he had a closer relationship with, really) -- tried to investigate on his own, with a talking board just like when Dean was dying.

I LOVE THIS SHOW.

ETA: I forgot MR. FIZZLES. Priceless.

Thoughts on Dean's drinking will come after a rewatch, I think.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What Amy said.

BOBBY! I expected him to show up soon, since it was obvous he was around in the last ep. I didn't expect them to make it hurt so much, after a mostly fun show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, Jesus, I can't believe they did that. Like, to me, because I'm taking this personally.

But first I have to get this off my chest: RANDOM JAPANESE PERSON???? SERIOUSLY??? THAT FIXED YOUR ISSUE?

No, it didn't. It was Bobby, because of the Japanese connection. I'm holding firmly to that.

Okay, I know I'm on record saying I didn't want Jim Beaver back, because let's just be done with all that, but they got me. I got sad, again. Real sad. I was hoping not to have my heart broken two weeks in a row (oh, thank you Community, by the way, for not helping), but FUCK YOU.

I also love how stingy they've been with spoilers, like how Misha had been talking about coming back forever, but I didn't stumble onto any Jim Beaver news in my general meanderings about the shallow end of the spoiler pool.

They kept me sad about Cas, about Sam feeling he'd traded the crazy, about him obsessing over Bobby and keeping it from his brother, about Dean cataloging the feels and trying adamantly to ignore them, about him finally opening his mouth, about dead Bob's heartbreak at being invisible...

They got me. Although I did also laugh a lot (and my drunk!Dean fanon is pretty much untouched, and he's still a walking substance abuse problem, so I'm happy), I'm sad.

Completely unrelatedly, anyone else read scaramouche's totally fucked up D/C that she just posted? I love that she's unrelenting schmoop with the HS AU, but that stuff she posted this morning was MESSED up man. Thankfully it didn't set off my slavery issues, because I really enjoyed the complete psychotically messed up dynamics. And to fit awesome!Sam into that...

Have not read it yet, but now that I know she's posted it will become a project for me this weekend.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's not for everyone, even if you ship it, because they're completely crazy, but I found it compelling.

So...Bobby. Haunting the flask? What?

I am pretty sure we've had canon where someone stuck around despite their body having been destroyed, right? For some reason I feel convinced of that, without being able to provide a cite. Garth did pony up some immediate exceptions, but I feel sure that we've seen something like it. Does the Hookman count, for instance? He was just around for the silver, right?


Amy - Mar 31, 2012 6:47:18 am PDT #24762 of 30002
Because books.

The Hookman, and also the psycho little girl from the painting. Her DNA/remains/whatever were in her doll (made with some of her hair). Oh, and also the kid from After School Special, whose dad had ... something of his in his Bible. (I think it was a bible, anyway.)

I'm a little worried that next week is a misdirect, in terms of the preview, but I'm also a little confused about why Bobby can shove a sword and empty a beer and all that, and couldn't respond to Sam with the talking board. I'm also a little wary of ghost!Bobby having the magic answer to defeating the Leviathans, because that's just going to feel like cheating.

That said, I love love love love that he can't let go, that he misses them and is worried about them, and he's holding on so hard, and helping out wherever he can. BOBBY.

Oh, and yes, I think it's definitely tied to the flask.
