Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

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

I actually looked at a Hobbit calendar and said no, I'd get SPN again (last year was great!), but...nothing.

I saw someone listing one for $2499.99 on ebay OBO. So I best offered $12.50 because I was in a pissy mood.

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

Also, there is a place where they can throw it from where it will never be retrieved--that's what they have the coordinates to, right?

That's my understanding. And I was also thinking metaphorical key - I like the Rosetta Stone analogy.

"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

This is a show where the Devil's Gate was a literal door in a mausoleum, so I assumed there would be an actual room somewhere, possibly in an Indian Jones-style booby trapped temple.

Didn't anyone else see Laura Croft and the Cradle of Life? Where she had the Super Seekrit Box (Pandora's Box) and had to throw it in the one specific location where no one would ever be able to locate it again? (or they'd dissolve into skeletons if they tried to touch it). That's what I kept thinking of when they were talking about putting the key in a secret location.

What I thought was weird is that Larry said it was warded against evil. Sam said it would be lost forever then, and Larry agreed.

Why not send a good person after it?

I mean, if you can find one. You might have to resort to a particularly cheerful toddler, or someone you've just lobotomised.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I mean, if you can find one. You might have to resort to a particularly cheerful toddler, or someone you've just lobotomised.

You're asking for more Garth by saying that, just so you know.

Art Crawl!!!

So when I watched the sneak? I thought a new addition to the best fictional libraries.

I thought he said nothing could pass through the whatever except the box, and that's why it would be lost forever.

Morgana,

I have yet to see any Lara Croft movies.

Because books.

Clearly, this calls for a rewatch.
