Also, ita, insent.

Season 2, Round 1, Bracket #2/4:

Dean: Sam, you and dad, you’re the most important people in my life. And now... So tell me, what could you possibly say to make that alright?" In light of what's to come with the whole now I'm dead, now I'm alive stuff.

Sam: "Dean, you're my brother, alright? So whatever you're carrying, let me help a little bit." Aw, Sammy.

Dean: sunsets and frisky women. (How about pina coladas?)

Dean: troubling question.

Season 2, Round 1, Bracket #3/4:

Dean: ...Sammy? What am I supposed to do? Well, I mean, come ON. Not enough soup and blankets in the world.

Dean: What's dead should stay dead. Yeah... OK, Dean.

Henrickson: You think you’re funny Dean: I think I’m adorable. YOU TOTALLY ARE! Also because I love and miss Henrickson.

Sam: If there's just one part worth saving... Bobby: Yeah. All right. True confession, I don't like the "full-on __________ed," thing, except for one, and I can't remember which it was.

Season 2, Round 1, Bracket #4/4:

YED: "I knew I kept you alive for some reason. Until now, anyway. I couldn't have done it without your pathetic, self-loathing, self-destructive desire to sacrifice yourself for your family." Poor, Dean.

Dean: Bitch. Sam: What are you calling me a bitch for? Dean: You're supposed to say jerk. Sam: What? Because, har!

Sam: Dean, did you pay attention to History class at all? Dean: Yeah, shot heard round the world, how a bill becomes a law... Sam: That's not school. That's School House Rock. I actually love the other one, too, but Schoolhouse Rock!

Dam/Dean: Bossy, short, drunk? Stupid. because funny

Welcome, JenP! There will be much deathmatching going on, at a day per round. And that's just quotes per season.

Do you even know how happy this makes me? You ARE a total ray of sunshine!

Yay, Jen is voting! Voting wrong in some cases, but still...

Hi Jen, hi! Glad you're enjoying the deathmatch. Even if some of your votes aren't right.

It's nice to be appreciated even when you think I'm wrong. ::hugs deathmatch, thread, and board::

It's nice to be appreciated

And MISSED. Where have you been, missy?!

Aw, thanks. I miss you, too. I really do. I've been catching up in lurk mode for what feels like months now. Work is a huge time suck, basically (that's not how I'm supposed to think about it, is it? Ha!). BUT I have made some new hires recently that I think will help tremendously with that... just in time for hiatus, yay? So, yeah, bring on the death matches of assorted variety!

I never would have called Sam/Ellen from the screen, but every one I've read has been scorching like whoa. It's possible it's an Ellen thing for me. Ellen and good writing.

Drat! I had this great voting post with reason and emotion and references (but not quite circles and arrows) and my computer blipped and lost it (as well as my ability to punctuate, apparently) and now I only have time for the Reader's Digest condensed unformatted version:

S2,R1,B1

proud, time alone, girl inside, Swayze'd

S2, R1, B2

S2,R1, B3

S2, R1, B4

I shipped Ellen/Dean. I was so disappointed when Kripke said it would never happen. I wanted to tell him, "then give me a damn good reason."

I can kinda see why he didn't go there, after trying to go Dean/Jo. It would be complicated, and I think fic has room to do it better. Or distract you with the porn...for which I am hella grateful. I think she's my favourite hookup for Dean.

Well, both Ferris and Ackles were ready to go there, if the writers were. Sam asked Jensen before she asked Kripke.
