I always had to roll my eyes at people who jumped upon any show of physical ease with each other by Sam and Dean as an indication of incest. Lack of personal bubbles that might be eyebrow-raising between two men who became friends as adults have absolutely no significance between siblings of fairly close age (nevermind ones that probably had to share a double bed in a motel room throughout much of their formative years). I know not everyone has brothers or sisters, but are these fangirls coming from some weird mirror of Twinsville, OH where everyone they've ever met was an only child?
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

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.

Because books.
Also? Most people who COME BACK FROM THE DEAD get a hug. It's not like they're walking around holding hands and snuggling on the sofa in the evening.
I think someone counted once, and the number of times they actually hug is a lot less than you'd think.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Seriously--they hug and touch way less than I do with my family, and I'm regarded as stiff and aloof by our standards. I laughed because my sister thinks it's totally icky to even pretend you're dating your sibling (and we do definitely yell when people assume), but no one raised eyebrows at the cousins I pretended to date in order to get into clubs cheap or free.
And if our touching and feeling was on TV, I've no doubted we'd all be shipped into one big loosely related puppy pile.

I've never heard of gencest. The cool kids get all the new stuff before I do.
I suspect what they're looking for is an unhealthy, codependent, noookie-free relationship. Some sort of brotherly equiv of covert incest.

I'm trying to make head or tail of some of the muttering going on about this ep. I can't work out if they're talking about script that didn't make it to screen, or what...it's very weird.

Who knew we had 23 episodes this year too, and why didn't you tell me? Loudly?
My sister continues to amuse--she's enjoying Castiel's addition, and his "I am not a hammer" speech worked as designed. So did "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and Sam's mighty back--she can be averse to watching sex scenes, but so far sex with Sam has a willing audience.
Working as designed, indeed.

Nope. I knew last year, obviously, but I hadn't processed/noticed that it was happening again. Why did it happen again?

No idea. I just heard we would get 23 again and rejoiced. You know, alone. Obviously.
