Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Oh, I shot a Winchester today.
I read that a different way for a moment. I was all "Nooooo!" until I correctly parsed the sentence.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Well, I was amusing myself a lot in my head while shooting the Winchester. It was a 45 and damn, that is a real gun.

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

Is F1 hard to get in to watch?

There hasn't been an F1 race in the US past 2007 and it's wicked expensive to get a ticket. Very exclusive.

I'd hurt people I actually liked to get just an general admission ticket. Actual access and I'd flay them. It's that good.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I'm rereading the Faded Sun trilogy and now want an AU fic of this, but I can't figure out if I want Dean or Sam to be Niun. Cas is definitely Sten Duncan, though. Melein has Dean's steadfast acquiescence to duty, and Niun is full of rebelling resentment, but I'm totally slashing Sten and Niun.

Given what we're seeing of prophets right now, do you think that gives more credence to Chuck being God?

Given that no angels are rescuing Kevin-does that just mean they are out of archangels, and no one else *must* do it? Everything seemed much more automatic a few years ago, but then again, their ranks have been decimated, at the very least.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Angels have tried to rescue Kevin a couple of times, but not done such a good job of it. I'd guess that with Michael and Raphael gone, they're not very organized at the moment.

I'm also unclear on how this foretold prophet business works now that predestination has supposedly been broken as of "Swan Song." I mean, I see how some things that were planned would keep on happening on autopilot, but for example the Leviathans were a threat that only emerged as a result of actions deviating from the defunct plan. Having an exterminator's manual show up at just the right time seems like cheating, somehow.

Deus ex machina? Or something that wasn't found before then because no one was looking for it, and even if they had been didn't have the same resources that it took to eventually find it?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

What's the point of being an omniscient omnipotent god if you can't cheat when you want to?

Castiel saying he didn't know what happened to Chuck was interesting. I still don't like Chuck as God, but I could see him being an Elijah-like figure, taken up bodily to heaven (or wherever) when his work was done.
