I will never not love Cristina Yang. Which inevitably takes me to a Dean/Cristina place. He must have gone to the ER in Seattle, right? Where's the Magic Fic Machine Of Quality?

Sam...Sam would probably get with Lexie. And I wouldn't want to read about it.

I want to see Michael and Lucifer come to them, and them saying no, and then ... I got nothing

That's my problem with what I wish to happen. There's the big question of God hanging over everything, and Castiel's unmentioned unseen search. How will that play into the resolution?

I'm not as concerned about where the story takes place. I just want the boys to have as much agency as possible, instead of it being resolved in a meatsuit battle.

Though, somehow, if we could slip JA!Michael in there somewhere, in maybe a dream, that would be nice.

Once, I had an idea about a Buffy/House fic. Then I sort of squicked myself.

I think agency is part of what I mean by them being on this plane. I hate how often they're being sent off somewhere, or sometime, without any say in it. Let the boys figure it out! Angels, stop meddling!

That said, I'm a big old whore for this show, so I will watch anything they air and usually like it.

Here is another sneak peek from next week's episode.

I'm losing track of how many times they have died vs how many times it was an angel trick.

I just watched the other two sneak peaks posted by sumi and I really hope the creepy music is just on the previews.

ETA: And I recall him saying that his mother was from Texas so maybe that's why he can do that voice so well

I remember this too. I don't know where I heard it or from what interview.

How many months ago was I bitching that next time they die I want them to stay dead? Since then, Sammy's already died once. Which puts him ahead of Dean, right? But then Dean has the hell time thing, but Sam has the experiencing Dean dead multiple times thing...

Ya know, Bobby had a total right to extreme pain, but of course the boys get it. Uh, and are hypocrites.

Not disagreeing with most of you in the thread, but as much as I like the brotherly bond, I would love for the writing in the series to be such that as a viewer, I could believe that either brother could survive without the other. They've been through dark dark shit. It would be nice if I could feel that they could continue on without being permanently broken.

It would be nice if I could feel that they could continue on without being permanently broken.

I'm just mesmerised by the dysfunction that ties them together. It's a large part of the draw for me. I suppose healing them of it could be part of the series resolution, but I'm really torn about the idea of a happy ending for them. They might deserve it, but I don't even know what it looks like.

I mean, at this point, they can't really live across town from each other. They might not seem to enjoy each other's company as much as they have, but that's not what dysfunction is about. Or love.

Somehow, it would break a part of my SPN-loving heart if one of them could walk contentedly away from the other. I don't even like typing it. Feh.

I think they were permanently broken before we met them. Maybe not Sam since he seemed to be adjusting to life at college and had friends. Somehow I have a feeling though that Sam's normal life would have come crashing down even if Dean hadn't ask him to find "dad" or Jessica hadn't died.

I really buy it, too. Or I should say the writers have sold me on that dysfunction. These aren't just brothers with little other family whose parents are dead. These are boys (okay, men) who have been to the darkest of the dark sides, and keep crawling back. They have the weight of the world on their shoulders, all the damn time, and they've screwed it up more than once.

No one -- no one -- is ever going to get them, not really. And they're so far past normal, I don't think either of them want it, or even can picture it for themselves. And if that means sharing a house if they ever get off the road, I think they'd both be happy for the chance to do it.

It did strike me yesterday that John Winchester, and thus the boys, might have been one of the most hardcore of the hunters. Every other hunter we've seen has at least some kind of home base.
