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.

I was highly amused to read people pissed that Castiel called Sam his friend.

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!

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

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.

ita, here are favorite Sam mannerisms v1.

And as a bonus, favorite Dean mannerisms v1.

Thanks for those, Morgana! Those are hysterical. I can't believe the amount of visual recall it takes to pull those off.

Nothing wrong with having goals, Sammy. You just... reach for the stars, hon.

First of all, phbttttt to the scholarship ivnvolved in that particular argument. Second of all, while Dean is hot like woah! and JA is aging to become better looking and more desirable every year, we've only seen two Dean Winchester love scenes. The Cassie scene was all softly romantic and fit the characters and where they were at that time (old lovers reconnecting, blah blah blah) despite the lack of chemistry with the actress. But the Anna scene... well, nothing will ever make me stop giggling at the Titanic handprint. Any possible hotness was eradicated by the hand on the window.

And I'm pretty sure Dean would agree that the carnal ranks pretty high on his list of what's important when it comes to sex.

If I were ten years younger, I'd say the hell with that - reach for ME!

...me stop giggling at the Titanic handprint

That was a cringe-worthy moment if ever there was one. ::shudder::
