Food for thought
Spoilers up to and including 4x20. Absolutely nothing for the last two episodes of S4, far as I know.
This is just me trying to prove that yes, I do still have functioning brain cells. Not exactly assuring. ;)
This is what roughly how all my metas look like in the beginning stages...
S4's the season about blood. It's repeatedly reminded me of a computer adventure game I once played, Gabriel Knight III: The Blood of the Sacred, the Blood of the Damned. Especially that game's trailer.
Associations
- Life: menstrual blood, lochia
- "Blood is thicker than water"; family; Blutschande
- San Graal/Sang Real (and combined with ponderings about the hierarchy of demons, that aspect bears to be remembered.)
- vampires; gnats, mosquitoes; bats
- sacrifice; The Last Supper; Eucharist; Aztecs
- ichor
- blood baths; Elizabeth Bathory
- blood bonds; blood brothers
