I may have to go back and look at Boys Helping Boys again. That sure was cute.
I started on a Bridesmaids D/C fusion, and...it's just an amalgam of things I don't like. Cherrypicking canon changes (Brady survives and is exorcised--how? Jo lives but Ellen doesn't--how? Sam isn't tormented in Hell, he just plays Monopoly--seriously??), removing supernatural threats from the world, having an SO force someone to AA, marrying one of the boys and moving one of them to a different city. I knew there was going to be jealous!Dean, which I don't love, but can handle, because that's the freaking premise, but with so much other stuff...no, don't think so.
The guy who gave me the picture of the knife said that my co-workers should suck all the souls from Purgatory to protect themselves from me. OMG, closet fucking fan! I can't believe it!
7x17 spawned *so* many fixit/sexytimes codas. More than any ep recently with Cas in. Interesting.
About that ep--did you guys think that Meg was staying there *not* as part of a plan with Dean? I'd assumed that was precisely the working with demons that Dean was defending to Sam as they got into the car. But I read a decent amount of fic/meta where she was there without Winchester knowledge for her own predatory reasons.
I just do not think the Winchesters would be laid-back about leaving Meg with free rein to whisper in Cas's ear whenever she wants if they knew. Best-case scenario she'd probably be snarking on and tormenting someone they care about when he's in a psychologically vulnerable state; worst-case scenario she puts in the time to brainwash him into executing a jailbreak from the Cage and the sacrifices of all their loved ones are in vain when Apocalypse 3.0 ramps up.

But they do know. Dean called Meg for an update on Cas's status. This is, I assume, the mutually assured destruction to which Dean referred. They need someone to watch and protect Cas, and she needs them to not kill her.
ita !, I'm with you. I thought it was a plan, and read the MAD line the same way.

Party on.
Hmmph. That site has a notable omission. Okay, quite a few.
I somehow missed that it was Meg they were calling about Cas last week.
Awwww! That's lovely of them to thank the fans. Also, go fandom. I love when we do nice things.
That explains my Twitter feed. I really wish people would indicate what they're reacting to, not just post their reactions.
I need to make sure I don't go near the Tumblrs of the people who were asking for her head for running Misha out of town. Too much of a risk they'll be gloating now.
I'm sad to see her go. I like her energy, and I like her episodes.
But, yeah, if she's being
replaced,
not just stepping down--that's really positive for a new season.
I agree -- I can't imagine why they would have hired a new showrunner, and let it leak, if they weren't fairly certain the series would be renewed.
Sera didn't drive Misha away! Reality, folks! Look into it.
