I am most likely seeing more than you were trying to present. That tired fandom habit: there is a lot of woman bashing of female characters on this show by its predominately female viewership online, and of Anna in particular... So, it was nice to see a phrase like "woman angel" and have a character in a short story inhabit that title so well.
ETA: I think this is one of the first fics I've read that does justice to what I personally was seeing of Anna on screen. ... I don't agree with fandom much. LOL
thank you for your kind wordsrodloxNovember 30 2009, 21:19:01 UTC
I asked what paralels because of how most of fandom (that I've seen) talks about the paralels between Dean and Michael, between Sam and Lucifer.
>So, it was nice to see a phrase like "woman angel" and have a character in a short story inhabit that title so well. ah. many thanks for explaining that; and I agree - Anna is her own person, and she's more than an angel or a human....she's Anna.
hell, she's someone Castiel listens to, and its a short list of who he gives a fig about)
>ETA: I think this is one of the first fics I've read that does justice to what I personally was seeing of Anna on screen. I don't find many Anna fics out there - and I regret that you've come across the badfics.
> ... I don't agree with fandom much. that makes two of us.
