SPN Meta: Season Five Random Blithering Speculation

[caffienekitty]

The traditional pre-season theory post, so as things unfold, I can go "See, I was right!" or, much more likely, people can point and laugh at how wrong I was.

Okay, I am utterly spoiler free, so anything I say here comes straight from my own head:

-The Four Horsemen are coming! I'm certain! \o/

Yes, and for the same reason; they've been name-checked. Plus, it's the Apocalypse!

Also if the Horsemen show up and the Croatoan Virus returns or is referenced as being a project of 'Pestilence' I will squee myself stupid.

I hope something more happens with that virus than just: "Sam's immune; the demon blood when he was six months old really worked". It could just be that, but I hope there's more to it.

At some point this season, Lucifer is going to be taking over Sam.

I've been waiting for this since Season Two! I thought it would happen at the end of last season, with Lucifer rising. I was sure Lucifer was going to leap into Sam and use him as a vessel, but that didn't seem to happen. The fore-shadowing of this has been mega. And Sam has now well and truly fallen through Pride, so ... Yeah, I'm sure this is going to happen sometime.

Before then, Sam will have a Harry Potter thing going on

It still might. A whole lot of things could happen after the white-out.

I can't stop thinking about Buffy and Dawn and "It's Summers' blood" and the little sister being literally made out of the big sister.

Whaaaa...? I never watched Buffy, but that plot development sounds a tad cracky.

Or did he already do that when YED showed him what happened on the night Mary died. Hmm.

Sort of, even though it was just a dream. I think the implications is demons can't do actual time travel but angels can (possibly only with special dispensation?)

BITE YOUR TONGUE. NO, NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. BECAUSE HE'S AWESOME.

I know! He's just the wise older character that usually ends up dying in these sorts of things. And that panic room has a serious flaw in the design that could be exploited.

I want a serious angel resistance happening against Zachariah and his scum colleagues.Yes. Might be tricky since Zachariah seems to have the keys to the

Oh, it was this whole thing with Dawn originally being a key of mystical energy who was turned into a human by some monks in order to hide her from a Hellgod. Everyone's memories were altered so they thought she'd been there all along while the viewers stared at the screen and went "Huh?" Not cracky at all, really. *grin* In the end Buffy died in Dawn's place because they had the same blood. And then she got better. Sort of.

Back to the Buffy thing: Rupert Giles survived the series! And Gandalf may have died, but he returned. Obi Wan Kenobi was kind of still around. Admittedly Dumbledore stayed dead. But there are some old, wise characters who survived their proteges rise to power. Bobby had better too!

It would save a great deal of tiptoeing around to avoid offending assorted religions for the writers.Yeah, there were parts of the angels' actions last season that

[anniehow]

Hee! Now I've got this thing running through my head of Castiel going "Dad's gone on a hunting trip and he hasn't been home in a few days," and getting one of the other angels to go off with him and hunt for God. XD

That is... *stares at you with admiration* I LOVE YOUR BRAIN!!!

[caffienekitty]

Isn't it a fun thought? Angel roadtrip! :-D

"-Castiel and Lucifer (and Zachariah) being brothers will be riffed on in some way, because it's a family connection and this show does family up, down and sideways. (Hee! Now I've got this thing running through my head of Castiel going "Dad's gone on a hunting trip and he hasn't been home in a few days," and getting one of the other angels to go off with him and hunt for God. XD

I actually thought Lucifer would wind up possessing Sam from the get go

I'm not ruling that out, but I think for the sake of the season arc, it won't happen til later in the season.

Probably something for either the mid-season hiatus or the last few eps of the season methinks!

Oh absolutely. He'll cliffhang us with it before a hiatus for sure. XD

Of course, Lucifer possessing DEAN might be even more interesting, because that would be double torture for Sam!!

It would, but it would put Dean (as the 'only one who can kill Lucifer') in a position of having to kill himself to save the world, which sadly isn't much of a contest for Dean. :-/

Killing Lucifer-in-Sam however would be a whole different matter, and he'd fight to find a way out of killing Sam. Although I'm also betting that if Big L possesses Sam, he's gonna pull a trick like the YED did with Grandpa Campbell and stab himself. And not just because I've had that scene sitting in my fic notebook since the season one hiatus. It's now foreshadowed.

I must look at this in greater detail later (because OMG!!! they actually want me to WORK) - but I would take up a collection for Kripke if he would adopt your idea and have Lucifer bring back Fred Lehne. NOT various random actors playing the YED, but FRED LEHNE. So there. I would pay extra for Nicki Aycox but she's got that other show. *sulks*

And Henricksen. And Ronald. Seriously, he needs to stop killing off the good characters. If he's entertaining any thoughts of killing Chuck, we need to hunt him down and slap him silly.

have Lucifer bring back Fred Lehne

Well, of course! :-D If Anna can wangle her physical form back from atoms, why the hell not Fred Lehne?

If he's entertaining any thoughts of killing Chuck, we need to hunt him down and slap him silly.

Yes. Also Bobby. And Castiel. They all need to be kill-proofed. *nods*

[tigriswolf]

Dean'n'Sam together forever the end. Yup.

Also, if the trickster is God I will totally spaz out. *hee*

*grins* I thought you might. :-)
