Kneel before Glod. ~Stephen Colbert

Because I couldn't have said it better than Cass did...

  • Dean, you're my brother, alright? So whatever you're carrying, let me help a little bit.

  • What am I supposed to do? Sammy? What am I supposed to do?

No brainer. Dean was lost with a dead Sam.

Word.

Because books.

I'm trying to remember what some of the choices for S3 were for the next deathmatch, and wondering if it's going to come down to such absolutely hurty quotes, too. I'll bet folding money S5 will, but S3 and S4 are more of a mystery to me.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm still playing catch-up with DVDs, and I just finished "On the Head of a Pin". Anna is awesome! I'm assuming she dies sometime between here and late season 5. I'll be sad to see her go.

OK, I'm about three minutes into "It's a Terrible Life" and it's already seriously hilarious. NPR listening, Prius driving, Project Runway watching Dean.

AU Dean is hysterical. I love the albeit temporary abandonment of the Winchester burden.

And the putting in his office! And the tie flipping when he eats his lunch! I love that episode like pie.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

My suspicion is that JA is far more like Dean Smith than he is like Dean. Very similar in fact, I suspect.

Looky what I found on my flist this morning. It's a slide show of Cortese-Padalecki wedding photos.

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

Given the bit I just read where Jensen taught Chad Lindberg how to shotgun beer for Dark Side Of The Moon, I think he's got plenty Dean Winchester in him.

I tried watching those photos--they're gorgeous--but it really felt like I shouldn't be looking. Everyone was really gorgeous as far in as I got, though. Genevieve was radiant, and I don't really think of her as pretty.

I have a strange feeling like I'm running out of good S5 Castiel fics. And so much of the S4 stuff has problematic Sam in it. I'm not interested in fic where Dean is substituting companionship, or where Sam is a pissy dick or where Ruby isn't evil. I'm in the middle of a huge AU series that's got a pretty good Sam motivation--it's true to what I think the series did--he's trying to be strong and use what he's got, and he's truly trying to do the right thing, and thinks he will come out on top. And, interestingly, his struggle for independence is very late S5. The Dean/Castiel emotional component goes off the deep end into schmoop, though. I'm a big fan of Dean not feeling worthy and Castiel wanting to show him how chosen he is, but the authors go a bit crazy with it here--it's in every sex scene and inbetween to boot. Absolution, by wolfling and omphalos.

Okay, separate post for the round of pain...

Season 2, Round 5, Bracket #1/1:

John:You know, when you were a kid, I'd come home from a hunt, and after what I'd seen, I'd be, I'd be wrecked. And you, you'd come up to me and you, you'd put your hand on my shoulder and you'd look me in the eye and you'd... You'd say "It's okay, Dad." Dean, I'm sorry.
Dean:What?
John: You shouldn't have had to say that to me, I should have been saying that to you. You know, I put, I put too much on your shoulders, I made you grow up too fast. You took care of Sammy, you took care of me. You did that, and you didn't complain, not once. I just want you to know that I am so proud of you. 10:3

vs

Dean: When you were little, couldn't have been more than five, you just started asking questions. How come we didn't have a mom? Why did we always have to move around? Where's Dad? I remember I begged you: "Quit asking, Sammy. You don't want to know." I just wanted you to be a kid, just for a little while longer. Always tried to protect you. Keep you safe. Dad didn't even have to tell me. It was just always my responsibility, you know? It's like I had one job. I had one job, and I screwed it up. I blew it, and for that, I'm sorry. I guess that’s what I do. I let down the people I love. You know, I let Dad down, and now I guess I’m just supposed to let you down, too. How can I? How am I supposed to live with that? What am I supposed to do? Sammy? What am I supposed to do? 13:0

Augh!
