Thanks!

GIRD UP YOUR LOINS. Yes. That is a biblical fucking pep-talk, dammit, not Zachariah's smarmy bullshit. Excuse my American.

I'm still waiting for an angel on Supernatural (besides, you know, Castiel) to actually seem like he stepped out of the Old Testament. This is the one.

Loved all the quotes. Loved that Dean recognized them. He's no dummy.

That is a biblical fucking pep-talk

Yay! Thank you. This was mostly wishful thinking about the pep talk I wanted to see, rather than the one Zachariah gave us. I'm glad you liked it!

[joyeee]

Dean's part of the dialogue before the quote-barrage started was already hilarious. Then... Castiel starts...saying all these things, and at Dean, and Dean's none-too-polite defiance doesn't stop of course but he can't stop Castiel quoting either, and I can just imagine the clash, LOL!!! Didn't recognize the first one (but it's the Geena Davis-Madonna-Tom Hanks-lots o' other stars one yes?) but Gladiator, LotR (put aside the Ranger - hahaha!)...Churchill and it just goes on, WONDERFUL :D

[joyeee]

sorry to just pile it on, but I also have to mention, the title really hooked me - I LOVE the quote "We few, we happy few, we band of brothers" - not only was it in Henry V but it's been used in so many other heart-stirring, loin-girding XD contexts - and it applies so well to SPN esp. after 4.17. Thanks again.

Thank you! I'm so happy that you liked the quotes! And the grammar! And the title! Although, every time I read it, I keep thinking of Spike saying "we few, we happy few, we band of buggered".

And don't apologize for writing long comments. Ever. They always put a smile on my face.

LOVELOVELOVELOVELOVE. \o/

That's about all I've got. Possibly the best Castiel fic I've yet seen. LOVE.

(Oh! Also love that you put Castiel in the lions' den. Is it wrong that I want to write a fic about that now?)

[july_july_july]

Wow. Thanks!

Also love that you put Castiel in the lions' den. Is it wrong that I want to write a fic about that now?

NO. You should. It would be awesome! I just figured as long as I was inserting fictional angels into Biblical shenanigans, I ought to go big or go home.

Castiel with a pop culture quote barrage is far more entertaining than it should be, because I can hear the neutral tone of voice delivering it all. Hee!

[july_july_july]

Yep...that was what I was going for! I'm happy you got a kick out of it.
