I have the feeling (please god) that we're pretty much done with Cas. I think he really is dead and I think next week some tentacles are going to erupt from his chest and that's going to be the Big Bad for the season and Cas will go away. And once he's gone, I think they'll concentrate on SamandDean against the world and Dean will get over himself and while Sam may twitch for most of the season, I think Dean will be there for him.

I so hope.

*hugs you*

I approve of all your ideas! I really, really, really hope you're right.

(Shh, I'm not really here; I'm doing my web development homework. Don't tell.)

I was emailing a friend while watching 701 Friday night, and our conversation went something along the lines of "why aren't they together? Isn't this season supposed to be of the "Butch and Sundance" variety, them against the world?" Because I didn't see a lot of that ( ... )

Yeah, exactly. I think what bothers me most, even beyond, yeah, everybody lies about that sort of thing, is the way Dean doesn't follow up on whether Sam's fine or not, you know? Like, he does explain that--he wants Sam to be okay; maybe he even needs Sam to be okay. But he still just takes Sam's word for it, as if both of them don't have exactly this history of covering when they're hurt, and as if Sam doesn't have the kind of trauma that you just don't get over. And for him to do that, and then lay it on Sam for lying--dude, really? *really?* Everything that followed that moment was lovely, but Dean was the one in the wrong there, no question.

I really hope you're right, and this is the end of Cas. It's very early days for me to be assuming this isn't the Butch and Sundance season. I should give them time to actually set it up. I do know this! It's just that my natural instincts are to panic and freakout. *g*

And Crowley can definitely stay. If for no other reason than to call Sam names.

And the names! So far we have, 'dog' ("call your dog off, please"); 'moose' ("where's your moose?"), and now 'giraffe'.

Aaaaand, back to homework. Ugh.

Haha. I am very partial to giraffe, but moose is totally my favourite. It makes me smile every time I think of it.

Back to homework for you, missy! Only then do you get to hang out and talk about Sam Winchester on the internet.

I feel this way too! As in, I knew this was going to be a Castiel-heavy episode because (omg please, please finally?) they're playing him off, Keyboard Cat. And yet I still let the seemingly never-ending continuation of his storyline irk me to the point that it was hard to love all of the other FANTASTIC moments (Dean fixing Impala, Sam being BAMFSAMOMG, Crowley!, Death!, Lucifer!)

I'm just tired of holding out hope with no payoff when they say we're moving on from the Heaven storyline and getting two-brothers-on-the-road-saving-hunting again.

On the other hand...
I mean, maybe this week! Maybe the week after! If it's some point early this season, I will be more than happy to take back everything I've said.

YES.

*clings to you*

I knew you would understand! But it is okay. We will see each other through this dark time. *nod*

And when you put it like that, I realise I am being kind of ridiculous. There really was a lot of good stuff--Sam's awesome is at a level I can't even comprehend, and we got that lovely moment of Dean being like, "Just give me this one good thing," about Sam, and them fixing the car together. And yes, Lucifer and Death and actual hell trauma for Sam they're not just going to magic away. And did I mention Sam's awesome? Trying so hard to hold it together, and using all that stubborn Sam determination to save Cas, even after what Cas had done to him. I just did the exact same as you and let my Castiel rage cloud everything ( ... )

(oh, L. Please let this be the week I get the love back.)

OMG, they are AMAZING! Our poor Sammy! And I think the thing I love best is how Dean is--I love the way he's like, "...Okay, we're gonna have to start smaller," because something about the way he says it totally reminds me of Mystery Spot. It's that same big brother gentleness kicking in; he doesn't know what to do and he's scared, but he's still just gonna handle it. And the bit with Sam having the nightmare and waking up to find Dean right there, making soothing noises at him (um, before he offers him potentially creepy water) is also lovely.

We are going to get our love back! And do you know about 704? I smile like an idiot whenever I think of it.
