Right! I'd forgot that. He'd have had a yellow imbalance at the start and growing up, but now he's swinging way way way black. I have no idea what that means or implies, but cool. :-)
that is a cool, COOL word!! :D
Isn't it just! Although using it in everyday life might be tricky. :-D
Personally I've always thought that demon eye color has an affinity to heat and flame (and I guess coal), so red is higher than black because it's flame vs coals, then yellow is higher because a yellow flame burns brighter, then white because a white flame burns hotter, and...
Yes, can you tell that it is a half-assed theory at best? ;-P
Like sandrinnad, I was just about to mention the four humours, too (but that's what you get when you're a Renaissance historian-type, like me). Oh, Show, you are too (possibly) too clever for your own good. :) I like your theory about needing all four colors of demon blood to be fully ... demonic? (Although I can't imagine Lilith saying, Sure! Suck my arm!) My own theory is that the YED's blood was all he needed for the YED's plans (whatever they fully were) but it made him susceptible to(not quite the word I'm looking for, but more like *able* to use) other demon's blood. Until we saw Sam use telekinesis in "On the Head of a Pin", his abilities from each blood were rather separate (visions and one use of telekinesis from YED, exorcisms/demon-deaths and now telekinesis from Coma!Ruby). But then again, all the special mommy-free-and-having children had different 'talents', so perhaps not.
Anyone else think it's a little weird that demon blood would enable Sam to exorcise (and kill) demons-- it suggests that the plans for the Demon Boy

I'm kind of scared by the thought that her permission wouldn't be asked... *eek*

Not really. The power Ava manifested in Cold Oaks was demon control, and for a leader of demons who are by their very nature chaotic, some effective form of exerting control would be good in a demon army leader, to keep the troops in line. Kind of Darth Vadery, in a way.
Hm, that's a good point. I guess it just seems odd because of the way Sam was brought up (ie: a hunter) and so he's immediately anti-demon (to a point), whereas anyone else is likely to just think, Whee! Powers! 'til they get sucked in.
"Boustrophedon is an awesome word which means a block of writing which reads left-to-right one line and right-to-left the next, and originates from the Greek for "ox-turning" or writing as the field is ploughed. *glee* (I did warn for random)Boustrophedon is an awesome word which means a block of writing which reads left-to-right one line and right-to-left the next, and originates from the Greek for "ox-turning" or writing as the field is ploughed. *glee* (I did warn for random)"
No. friggin. way! I JUST learned about this in my Attic Greek class! My prof likes to go off on slight tangents and talk about the most INTRESTING obscure things about the language, and THIS came up not more than two weeks ago! Talk about coincidence.
On a more Supernatural-related note, THE TRICKSTER!! I've really wanted to see him back, lately. I had myself convinced for a while during 4x17, that the Trickster was behind it all. He should so be back for season 5... I loved that little dude.
