Picspam Reaction: Supernatural 5.20

[caffienekitty]

Well, I'm reacting live to this one (as in, typing up things as I watch it, because I missed the boat for actual "live" live by several days), so it may be even more scattered and random than usual. Also, alcohol may be involved

I feel your pain. I am fretting so much over who gets to survive and who'll die (Bobby! Castiel! Crowley!) I get the vapours just thinking about it.

[caffienekitty]

Castiel cannot die. He totally can't. Bobby... his role in the series predisposes him to a greater percentage chance of dying. Since season three I've been figuring Kripke was going to off Bobby. I'm thinking this time it may happen. I need to buy more kleenex.

Ooh, which fic?

Also, Crowly is my favorite demon now.

I forget which specific one, but one of your Dark!boys fics, or where Sam's gone evil and Dean's still backing him up, evil and all.

Crowley indeed rocks. He's very non-transparent and indeterminate in his motivations and actions beyond saving himself, which is awesome.

I don't think the gun Bobby had was The Colt - I think it was the same one he had in Point of No Return when he was telling Dean about wanting to off himself. So we can still trust Crowley. Sorta

It's interesting that Mark Sheppard's actually been allowed to keep his Brit accent.

I think it's because his namesake Crowley (the demon who teams up with an angel to stop the apocalypse in the popular novel "Good Omens"), is British.

[irismay42]

Oh is that who he's named after? I presumed it was Aleistor Crowley the occultist!

[silviakundera]

I don't remember if the writers have admitted to this in interviews or not, but it seems to be assumed in articles I've read since 5x10 that mention the character... And the fact that aspects of 'Hammer of the Gods' seemed that they could have been inspired by another book by that same author ('American Gods') makes the demon Crowley helping to stop the apocalypse = demon Crowley helping to stop the apocalypse case even more likely. (The character personalities aren't similar at all, apart from the delight in evil-doing, the wise cracking, and the fear of his fellow demons due to working against Hell-- so a very loose homage is all.)

Hee! Your review with the pause button was highly entertaining.

I, too, hoped Dean was luring him into his own Devil's Trap a la Ruby in "No Rest for the Wicked". I think Crowley really wants to help with this task, but boys should still be suspicious, because he wants to survive but doesn't care if the boys do, mentally or physically, and would probably prefer they don't. And now he really knows all their buttons from bugging the Impala.

Anyway, I'm 95% sure that wasn't the Colt that Bobby shot him with. Firstly, it doesn't look like the Colt, and secondly, it makes more sense for the boys to have it.

Last thing: boys are showing trust in each other! \o/

Happy you find my insanity entertaining!

It's weird that Bobby would have it, but I think it was supposed to be the Colt. It's 2 am and I have to work in the morning or I would check.

Trust and respect, sort of. Regardless, huzzah! \o/

I expect an excruciatingly nasty cliffhanger this week. If I could, I'd take friday off.
