SPN: Sometimes it's Terrible and sometimes it's not.

[true_enough]

I did not like It's a Terrible Life (4x17).  At all.  In fact, I hated it.

I've missed you quite a lot, but I knew you were enjoying this stuff on SPN. If I weren't feeling so slow on everything, I would have emailed you to squee about it.

They have obviously become very dear to him and I'm looking forward to seeing more of that returned back to him in some way.

So much yes! But there's a thready, fragile bond of trust already between Dean and Castiel (and maybe I can hope that as soon as Sam comes back to his senses, there will be time to build a similar one between Cas and Sam, as well) that was so satisfying to see in 4.16 especially when Dean asked to talk alone with Cas. Yes, Castiel's and his blind faith costed Dean - this can't be denied - but at the same time I don't see that bond as having been destroyed. Quite the opposite, I think it was strenghtened.

The bottom line for me is that I just can't see Sam going completely darkside. Dean has done worse, not to rub it in, honey, and I do not consider him to be evil, either.

Actually, your comment about the halo in the picture made me think that so far they've gone a long way to make Sam stand in the light. Compared, Dean has done 'worse' (not only the apocalypse, but the whole torturing in hell thing). But Sam's threading a fine line and his affiliations are at least suspect; will he pull back on time? Who knowns? That's why I don't understand the freak out about evil!Sam and at the same time my heart goes to Dean who's touching with his hands the consequences of an act done out of love. In a sense, Dean's already started to atone and Sam's walking a very thin line.

::whispers:: I tend to credit all of Castiel's great moments to Misha. ::big grin::

Oh, me too. I was erring on the safe side, but it must be all Misha's merit. TRUE!

It's totally possible that Castiel was protesting too much. ::grin::

This. *g*
