God.
I just...ngah. I am filled with dread for the boys, and stomach-clenchy excitement and worry for Castiel, and just lots of flaily dolphin noises, because, Oh, SAM! And, oh, DEAN!

Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
My first (and only coherent) thought--that's Tessa !
Holy cow, that worked.
I don't want to be spoiled. But I can't think well enough to speculate. I'm just sort of tucked into a corner behind a salt line, waiting for whatever badness comes down the pike.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Oh. my.
Coherent reactions and theories may come later.
Right now, however, I'll be sitting here gleebling in anticipation.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, my. That's the next ep? Whoa.

Of course I understand that it's wrong for me to be excited by that preview. I just want to make that clear.
Damn. March, huh?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
How excited are we talking, ita?
I mean, damn, Castiel talking to Ruby! About being tempted to DISOBEY!
Dean seemingly being used by heaven as God's go-to torturer of choice! Ack! They saved you from Hell so you could be their wetworks guy, Dean! Ack! Not because of any virtues!
Sammy going all Darth Vader!
These are exciting things!
If it's Dean going all Torturer!Demon on the bad guy... okay, yeah, disturbing much. And the tagline 'WHEN GOOD FAILS, EVIL MUST BE MET WITH A GREATER EVIL' does make me wince, in a post-911 kinda way.
Still - exciting!

t procrastinaty queen of procrastination
So, clearly I am all over SPN this season, and have enjoyed the hell out of rewatching earlier seasons. But I'm wondering whether I'm being clueless/culpable/whatever in glossing over the show's issues with gender and race.
Thoughts? Either in general, or in regard to current season?

Oh. my, indeed.
One funny thing, until I read Fays second to last post, I thought the screen said, "When God fails...."
Uh, oops? (Though I was thinking, "Wow, writers... ballsy!" Also, I am now wondering what that misread (twice, no less) says about me.
