Sure, Sam was probably more upset when it was Sarah, and Dean was more upset when Sam was upset, but they were already upset. It didn't change the plot's direction, her unique relationship with them wasn't why she died...if every dead woman anyone gives a fuck about is a fridging, there isn't fridging anymore.

This. Also, though, I think Dean remembered how good they were together, and what he'd said about her to Sam, and the contrast with where they are now versus then ... At least, in my head, that's what he was thinking, anyway.

I have SO MANY ideas for fic this summer, but they're mostly about Castiel and Crowley. Which feels wrong, except for how Castiel is really Dean/Castiel, so that's nice.

And by that I do NOT mean Castiel/Crowley. I mean, stories about Cas, stories about Crowley. To be perfectly clear. Not that someone out there hasn't written the former, I'm sure.

There seems like way more Brits writing SPN fic in the past 6-8 months. As in people putting foreign words into Winchester mouths.

Not just SPN fic. I run into so many Britishisms in Teen Wolf stories these days, it's left me wondering what new thing American teenagers have started doing for fun in lieu of writing fanfiction.

No offense to Mark, but can he keep his clothes on? I'm still feeling kinda punitive towards the character--despite the ace job writing and acting did. What can you do other than say sorry that could be enough?

Oh, right. Cas+Crowley soup kitchen shenanigans. Crowley is apologetic but jaded, Castiel is scared and doesn't understand the references. Supernaturally odd couple.

That's actually worse than the theoretical Sam/Crowley I cursorily engaged in.

Is this one of them? [link]

Shaving the sides of their heads, wearing a lot of eyeliner, loudly telling everyone who will listen that they're the only people cool enough to be goth, and that everyone else are babybats and poseurs? Then complaining that there's nothing to dooooo because they aren't old enough to drive anywhere? Oh wait, that must be only my little corner of tumblr.

(Kids. Today.)

Is this one of them?

Well, NOW IT IS.

Oh man, that could be so good ...

Someone "liked" a random SPN off topic post I made on IO9 a year ago (Jilli, don't), and in the process of trying to find out if I'd made this image myself, I stumbled upon fashion inspired by the show. I do note at least one canon error, but I like the sense of whimsy with which she approaches the proposition.

I'm still not sure if I made that as the need arose or not, though.

Have I told you about how the Infamous BlueJay is trying to convince me to do a Victorian genderswapped version of Castiel for a convention?

You certainly haven't given a good reason for why you haven't done so! Period Castielle is all the rage!

In the annals of "Doesn't the show hurt you enough?": [link] It is lovely, though, but never a commitment I could make, even as I roll my eyes at the people who are still complaining about what season 6 forced them to feel. You haven't really quit the show if the wound is still raw.
