"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

The funny is very funny and sad. I don't think it's a spoiler to say we are all doomed. Because I have no idea what is going to happen. Thank God I know there is a season six. Only thing getting me through this week.

I watched the end of 4x02, and man, I really miss that bad-ass, terrifying, sexual-tension oozing Castiel. Who also already possessed an otherly sense of humour and personality. Man, I didn't realize/remember how much they screwed over his character.

I love Cas. He has just evolved. And may or may not contain Jimmy.

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

I didn't realize/remember how much they screwed over his character.

You think Point of No Return!Cas was screwed over? He was bad assed! I never stopped loving him, but, damn, it burned fierce in that episode. Just beating the shit out of everyone. BAMF indeed.

But I also like Castiel who wants painkillers and who summons a speck of angel mojo to fake out Pestilence and lop off his fingers. And who discovers the joy of a shotgun.

That's my boy.

PLEASE LIVE.

Man, I didn't realize/remember how much they screwed over his character.

In my opinion, it didn't help that they started making him the butt of easy jokes so often. Hard to view him as "bad-ass, terrifying, sexual-tension oozing Castiel" when he's being seen as the guy who's fumbling for the correct word or action.

edit - I loved fierce Castiel who went into protective mode. I just wish we could have seen more of that version of him.

I like all flavors of Cas and do not think his character has been screwed over at all.

I think the Casifesto is an interesting look at the badassedness of Cas as maintained throughout his time on the show, but I think it disregards his transition from faith in God to faith in Dean, and that he may be a fierce warrior with no time or patience to bother to fit it, but he still is about devotion to a figurehead.

You think Point of No Return!Cas was screwed over?

I think that's the first time they let him be what he once was in season 4. Because the rest of the time there was

they started making him the butt of easy jokes so often.

Where before he wasn't there much but when he was, there was the bad-assery and the power and then doubt and struggle, and then suddenly there was him not there much except as a presence to write quickly and clumsily out of the episode. It felt like poor writerly neutering, and not a progression of a slow fall.

I love him so much, but a lot of the season 5 stuff just makes me cringe or feel bad.
