There are two little boys, maybe ten and eight years old, playing with the pendulum toy on my desk. Their mom is waiting in my lobby for an appointment, and they're actually being remarkably quiet, especially compared to most kids when trapped in my lobby. They're both watching the pendulum very seriously (when nudged, it makes perfectly ( Read more... )

*pssst* Sam was born in '83.

...it's so sad that I know that.

*cracks up* This is what happens when I try to do math in my head.

That's okay, you're using the same logic as the people who wrote Origins.

Then the people who wrote Origins must also be blindingly stupid at simple computational math. *laughs* I seriously do not know how I arrived at the year 1981. That's before I was born, and the boys are roughly my age (Sam's a year younger, Dean's a few years older) so how did I figure they would be half-grown kids then? *headdesk*

Aw, your very own Baby!Winchesters. How adorable!

I'm lacing up my knee-high angst-canceling boots, now.

Got any of those in my size?

If I can find a suitable image, I could make us icons (one size fits all)!

Your very own wee!Chesters! Hee!

Re: Ruby . . . she irks me. She's always irked me. Was the whole virgin sacrifice a test? Meh. Maybe. Maybe not. Does she leave because she doesn't want to watch the boys fail? Of course not. She leaves because she doesn't want to get exorcised.

Her whole rant in the hotel room made me want to slap her silly. (You call her wench. I'm inclined to fall back on Dean's terminology.) It is NOT their fault that Lilith killed everyone. Also, some of those people were already dead when Lilith arrived. There ain't no way the Boys are responsible for any of those deaths. Also? The virgin sacrifice would not have saved all those people, because some of them were already dead ( ... )

Loved loved LOVED "Jus in Bello." The little points that made me roll my eyes (how the heck did Bela call at just the right time from two states away? That always makes me roll my eyes when someone the phone rings just as someone walks in) were totally overwhelmed by the sheer amount of awesome the episode brought. Henrickson! Nancy! ...The deputy! I don't know his name, but he was still good ( ... )

Interesting take on the "demons lie" angle. Though I'm still going to follow my original thoughts of demons lie. Remember, the best lies have an element of truth ( ... )

Thanks for replying! You bring up points that I'd forgotten. Meg did totally lie about John being dead at first, you're right. So. Um. I totally covered my butt with the "I'm not saying they don't manipulate or that they wouldn't lie if it suited them. They're demons. Default settings is Evil'" disclaimer at the end there ( ... )

Re: the 100s of years to become a demon . . . well, within the show, we only have it from Ruby, but we also have it from Kripke in an interview (I don't remember which one, and I know that Kripke is about as reliable as . . . well . . . anyone who starts killing things off when he gets tired of them . . . but still ( ... )
