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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Where'd you hear that? Poor noodle.

S2 dvd commentary, I think.

Sam's "I'm the weak link, aren't I?" thing is way entrenched, isn't it?

I think he has a lot of undeserved guilt about leaving "the life". Jessica's death was a consequence he takes completely on himself, and really, while consequences do follow him, it isn't really his fault. And I wish at some point he would deal with that reality.

But then, no angst, no story, no show.

Castiel hater.

Nu uh. But he's one of those that dies and comes back.

Bobby, not so much.

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

it isn't really his fault.

He was high.

So far. For some reason.

I was highly amused to read people pissed that Castiel called Sam his friend. Sam can't be Castiel's friend. Dean is Castiel's friend. Castiel's friendship is speshul, and no one can have it but Dean.

Castiel might not know what a Delorean is (I am quite tempted to make my tagline "I do not get that reference", but Castle wins for now), but he knows the lay of the land.

Because books.

It is beginning to seem unfair that Sam and Dean apparently have a baker's dozen lives each, and for everyone else, dead is dead.

Except Castiel. And Anna.

I think my favorite Castiel line so far (aside from stoned! hippie! Castiel) is from the promos for next week. He nails those straight lines.

They must be the same people who were angry at Bobby when he more or less told Dean to suck it up and stop whining and that family isn't supposed to make you feel good, and what did you want, a pie? Because I remember reading comments that said they knew they should feel bad for Bobby that he was in the hospital and in a wheelchair, but they just couldn't because he was mean to Dean!1!

Poor widdle Dean. Can't take a chewing out.

I also skimmed a couple SPN entries from the fandom wank wiki, just so I could get a proper feel from the fandom. Tee hee.

When people are all "Kripke outed fannish behaviour!" do they recall the extent of the fan-crazy aimed in Show's direction that he ignored when he wrote Becky and the LARPers?

People need to stop writing stuff about SPN, so I can stop reading it.

Supernatural Romance.

Which again, goes there:

[Dean's] style of lovemaking emphasizes the spiritual over the carnal (in contrast to his brother's more ahem goal-oriented style).

I am so sure that if we'd been treated to Jess sex it would have been very touching and sensitive. And Dean cares for just a fraction of the ass he's tapping.

Which I'm all good with. I just don't see him as the romantic.

Unrelatedly, favourite Sam mannerisms V2 (haven't found #1 yet). Quite amusing.

Hey, that reminds me of a question I wanted to ask! At all of the conventions I have ever known to have LARPing, said LARPing was based off of an actual role-playing game, not a TV show, movie, or book. Have any of you heard of non-RPG based LARPs?

(Star Trek LARPing doesn't count, because everyone I know who was involved with that were gamers to start out, and they wrote their own rules.)

My question is part of the reason I didn't (and still don't) understand the "Kripke outed fannish behavior" uproar. In my eyes, Kripke & Co. looked at a subset of convention life and fannish behavior that ... doesn't really intersect with what I think of as "fandom". To me, fandom is different from gaming, LARPing, and general media convention-going.
