Isn't Gadriel more of a King Arthur kind of name than an angelic kind of name?
Also, put me down on the Do.Not.Like column for this current plot twist, at least at this point.
Edit: Okay, since Castiel just learned the truth, I'm hoping said plot twist won't drag on too long.
I've found that reading reactions before watching has saved me in terms of ire, so I'll be sitting this one out, looks like.
I don't know if it's my mood, or a leftover aftertaste from last week, but that was awful.
Who the hell is Gadriel? That's not an angel I've ever heard of.
And why is Metatron just hanging out on earth when (almost) every angel is out to kill him?
All season I was handwaving the fact that the angels still have powers, but now I'm just pissed off. When Anna fell, she was reborn as an infant. These angels fell and we saw their wings burning up, but they still have all their power? And they conveniently loopholed the vessel's consent, so all these thousands (millions?) of angels found willing hosts? None of it makes sense.
And they fucking killed Kevin Tran.
And they fucking killed Kevin Tran.
Still reeling from that one.
And they fucking killed Kevin Tran.
I suspected that was going to happen based on last week's preview.

I am having such motts that I don't think I can finish watching. Do. Not. Want. I am trying to figure out if I should lower the volume or just admit defeat.

After supposedly spending millennia crafting his evil plan to take over Heaven he learned that it's a big place when you're there all by yourself. Huh. I guess heaven doesn't have the library that he built up in Colorado. (Tonight didn't he say something tonight to Galadriel about humans being mystifying, or tiring, or something, because of all the emotions? Because when Sam and Dean first met him, he thought humans were just fascinating as all hell, because of their stories. Of course, he's a lying liar who lies, so there's that.)
I think I'm finally falling out of love, and it hurts. S7 Buffy was so disappointing to me, I like to pretend nothing but the last episode happened, if that, and I didn't want to feel that way about this show.
And I know it's probably way too easy for me to say since I write, but I can think of half a dozen different ways this season could have gone that would have been better.
Also also? Don't bother with world-building if you're going to half-ass it and then not follow your own rules anyway.

I know a lot of people have been fascinated with all the various angel plot lines, but I am so fucking tired of them. This is their 6th year, and I don't care about their heavenly war.
I feel like I was willing to handwave a lot of angel inconsistencies when I thought it they were only the temporary focus, but now ... I'm tired, too. I also don't like that it's conveniently flexible, because they change it to suit the story whenever they like.
