more dangerous than trapping hurricanes in butterfly nets
∼ My immediate reaction was to connect Jessica's appearance to that of the dead wife of Lucifer's vessel. I was all screaming, no, Sam, DO NOT LISTEN TO ANYTHING SHE SAYS. But maybe it was what it looked like? Fridged girlfriend returns five years down the road to give a pep talk? I want her to be Sam talking to his subconscious, because this "dark stuff! deep down! even in Standford!" thing is a bit headdesky but totally in line with Sam's emo.
∼ Ohhhh, the separate lives montage! Crrrack, there breaks my heart.
∼ Castiel still has no manners and or regard for personal space. I ♥ Dean's long-suffering-ness. ♥! THEY'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS.
∼ HE WAS WASTED BY A TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA ANGEL :D :D :D
Also, while I hate revenge plots with the fire of a thousand suns, I tend to think of revenge as way too human to possibly drive Castiel. I can fairly easily see it as an auxiliary motivator for Dean in this case, but I have my bias, of course. The show has no qualms about encouraging my bias, of course (if anything they're pushing it harder than ever).
OH MY GOD THIS SCENE. DEAN IS THE ONLY ONE. CASTIEL DID EVERYTHING FOR HIM. AND SAID PLEASE. I CAN'T EVEN BREATHE JFC.
...And then Dean ruins the moment. Of course he does.
∼ CASTIEL HAS A TOTALLY AWESOME PLAN. IT'S LIKE HE HASN'T EVEN PAID ATTENTION TO HOW PEOPLE WORK, EVER. He probably hasn't. Why would he?
CREDENTIALS. COLLAR. LESSON ON THE PETTINESS OF HUMANITY. BRB BREATHING INTO A PAPER BAG ♥♥♥♥♥
"ALSO FBI."
I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE THE MOTTS OR IF THIS IS AMAZING. A LITTLE BIT OF BOTH.
∼ Plans for the last night on Earth: sitting there quietly. I THNK I READ THIS FIC ONCE. The way I think I read half of this ep in a fic once. I'd mind, but I can't bring myself to feel anything but CAPSLOCK OF INFINITE GLEE.
"There are two things that I know for certain. One, Bert and Ernie are gay. Two, you are NOT... gonna die a virgin."
In other words, "you will be gay if that's what's gonna get you laid tonight"?
∼ Yawn, Sam's angst about not being like the other boys. If only he wasn't dark deep inside! Then he could go on a date with this attractive girl!
∼ I can't make up my mind how I feel about the hooker scene, and even less to say what I think of it. It's classic, but it's still a practically faceless female sex worker reaffirming the male bond of the protagonists. /srs
∼ Oh! Raphael's reason for starting the end of the world actually makes sense to me. He seems dead wrong about that being why everyone's doing it--the zealots have been pretty convincing so far. But for him, I have actual sympathy, even though he's as dickish as the rest of them. I like the parallel to John's treatment of Dean and Sam.
∼ Castiel couldn't pick up any of Dean's pop culture references? The first colloquialism he adopts has to be 'bitch'? It'd be awesome if, after they walk out, Dean would take time to explain how it's a bad word and you shouldn't use it, despite how Dean sometimes does. But yeah, no.
∼ These hunters Sam's dealing with are boring me to akshualfax tears. This is just STUPID.
∼ Dean and Castiel's talk in the car! At first it's all OH MY HEART and PULL OVER AND HUG ALREADY--for that moment at least they've really gone and replaced Sam with Castiel for all intents and purposes. And it's bittersweet but sweet anyway. And then Dean starts talking about how he's better off without Sam and I don't even know, I think it smacks of him telling himself that. I think he's been trying to replace Sam, those past 24 hours, and it's different and a relief that he doesn't have to worry abot the same things with Castiel than he did with Sam. And yet.
"Now that I'm alone--hell, I'm happy." Cut to the empty seat and refocus on Dean's face: it's anything but happy. MY HEART.
∼ OHHHHHHHHHH I SEE I WAS SUPPOSED TO THINK 'SHITSHITSHIT LUCIFER' AT FIRST. OMG. THAT GOT ME. AWESOME.
AND THEIR LUCIFER IS AMAZING. AMAZING. People knew Mark Pellegrino could pull it off; now we know the writing supports awesomeness. HOORAY!
ALSO HOLY FUCK, THIS SEASON THE EPILEPTIC TREES THEORISTS WERE RIGHT, THEY ARE GOING FOR BROTHER VS. BROTHER. AAAAAHHHH.
I hated, hated, hated Sam's boring storyline this ep, Lucifer notwithstanding, but SHOW, YOU HAVE MY ATTENTION, PLEASE CONTINUE TO BE CAPSLOCK-WORTHY LIKE THIS. <333333333333
