Blanket warning this entry (and probably many many more after) has season 5 spoilers, but since it's been a week I'm not going to lj cut. Apologies to anyone who's behind in their watching and gets spoiled by me.
and I guess I just wanted to tell you
as the lights start to fade
that you are the reason
that I am not afraid
and I guess I just wanted to mention
as the heavens will fall
we will be together soon
if we will be anything at all.

Sera Gamble You know,
thisbrain, you tell me to stop bringing it up in every conversation I have with you. How can I, when everyone else keeps bringing it up for me? Though now that the initial shock, horror, and delight has settled down, it's now occurring to me to wonder how many FCC violence regulations hoops they had to jump through to give us that. And here I thought watching a character get ripped apart by invisible dogs was bad. "I'm going to explode? I don't wanna explode!"
You know, essentially, if you take the finale the way a lot of viewers are taking it... God walked out of heaven to go down to earth and write RPF. Occasionally badfic RPF, with ghost ships and racistrucks.
Of course, it does make rewatching old episodes especially hilarious. "Well, obviously I'm a god." "You're not a god, Chuck." "How else do you explain it?"
ETA. I stared at this entry and started feeling like a dick for not cutting it. But at some point I'm going to just talk about aired episodes of season five the way I do of all the other seasons.
