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

Well, some of that Men of Letters prose can make any subject a bit of a slog.

Love Sheriff Donna - her and Jody Mills were great together.

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

Just read this quote in a story:

Sam sat at the front desk of Winchester Iron and greeted the members with a polite smile as they swiped their cards though the reader at the entrance. He smiled extra hard at the pretty girls, with a grin that hopefully communicated how sorry he was that he was gigantic, and that deep down he was very sweet.

It's teen!Sam and I can totally see it.

Finally! Confirmation on Jimmy Novak's fate.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

stupid tv antenna, just went out at the end of the ep. It's been aggrevatingly shaky all evening and now it just cut out completely.

Confirmation on Jimmy Novak's fate.

Yes! And it was the confirmation I wanted/believed in too. I am so narratively relieved, and I stick out my tongue at the people who said Dean/Cas was rape because Jimmy was stuck in there getting unwillingly fucked. It's such an easy thing to head canon around, and hundreds of stories are now Kripked.

Which makes me wonder--there must have been fans with the username impala67 one place or another. They must have been so chuffed.

I was bored with the Rowena part of the story, because it felt like nothing happened. But I really did like the Claire part of it, as well as Dean going OTT (the difference between killing Randy and not killing Randy) and not being able to lie about it.

Precog dreams, though? Huh.

I hope the resolution to the Mark of Cain involves Cain. I liked him and his story.

Yeah, more Timothy Omundson (I always want to write Ombudsman) is always good in my book.

I liked the Claire story, too, and the actor who played her. Or, how the actor played her, I guess? Anyway, I enjoyed.

Oh, Dean.

Oh, Dean.

Back in the day when I read the anon meme, they called him D:ean. Now seems as good a time as any to call the noodle that now (why Randy? Why?). Also, DEEEEEEEEAN.

I think they handled the teenaged alienated and betrayed well. It's a risky provocation, but I didn't even mind changing the actor.

Can anyone help me parse this bit from a fic?

“Jo is on about us showing affection again,” Dean grumbled and pulled the chip from Castiel’s hand, Damn, for a women being against Dean glanced back at him and the Cas.

And I guess I never hit post on the question I was pondering--I'm getting into SPN arguments on IO9, as is my wont. Okay--two questions:

1) In the absence of reporting that it was the end of Kripke's five year plan (and the name of the episode), would you think that Swan Song was a good closing point for the series--both in terms of wrapping things up, and assuming that nothing since then has been worth it?

2) What would have happened to the free-Luci plan if Dean hadn't resurrected Sam? How does the elimination battle at Cold Oak jibe with the destiny that the angels and demons were working towards? It seems like a pretty big variable in a non-free will kind of a plan.
