What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, all the pages seem to say it's happening, but it hasn't been officially reported in a trade mag, I don't think. Or even E!

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

I took it to mean that the boys didn't know until then that every demon needs a vessel, a human meat suit

I can't remember who said that she was either a demon or a demon possessing a human, or who was around when it was said. Hmm. I might just have to rewatch the first half of the episode.

But Bobby saying "can't you tell?" made it sound like there was some distinction to be made.

Yeah, on googling again, the most I can see with a studio name on it is "Kripke warming." We'll see.

Because books.

Yeah, I'm not sure if that was one of those "Sam has been at Stanford for two years" thoughtless mistakes or what. Because as far as I can tell, there are no demons in the SPN universe who *don't* have to be in a meat suit, unlike the Buffy or Angel 'verses.

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

The little child demon in Cold Oak didn't require a meatsuit. But there are apparently demons, and there are demons, and if you think about it too hard, you turn into that German dude, and then ghosts kill you and stuff.

Was that a demon? I guess I just always saw "ghost" there. But you're right.

Kripke! Consistency! UR DOIN IT RONG.

"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

It was called an "acheri demon" which seem to be based on malevolent sickness-causing ghosts from India. But I do recall being surprised by a demon that could take on human-esque form and kill people directly, rather than having to possess a host body to do so.

I suppose there are demons from Christian Hell, and then there are other supernatural nasties that would get labelled demon in, say, the Buffyverse. It's the hellbeasts that need hosts and the others are as close to their original mythology as Kripke could be bothered to hew for the sake of the screenplay.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

(Ruby's little finagling aside later on)

She recycles! Al Gore would be proud.
