annundrielSupernatural - "My Bloody Valentine"
So there was a day last summer where![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
olivelavonne, my mom, and I marathoned Friday the 13th and My Bloody Valentine. Oh, Jensen. You did your best, man, but that was ridiculous.
Anyway. I enjoyed this episode A LOT.
- Y'know, I remember the first time SPN made me go "OMG they're not gonna show that, are they?!" This episode was a reminder that yes, they absolutely are going to show that. EW.
- Dude, Sam, way to be unobservant. Dean isn't trolling bars for lonely singles on Valentine's because HE AND CAS ARE A COUPLE, DUH. You are clearly blocking out that one morning you woke up to find Cas still in Dean's bed.
What? ::shifty:: That totally happened.
- CUPID. Or, actually, let's just go with CASTIEL since I pretty much got ridiculous as soon as he showed up. ON THE PHONE. "I'm going to hang up now." Oh, bless their awkward-non-existent-personal-space socks. <3
- BUT CUPID. D'AW.
Why did he looks so familiar? ... Southland!
- I...kinda don't know how I feel about all of this meddling that it turns out Heaven's been doing. I mean, I'm not going to argue with or about it, because that achieves approximately zip, but I don't know how I feel about it.
- Famine is creeeepy.
- Okay, so seeing Castiel eat and seeing Dean and Sam's reaction to it was great, but all I could think most of the time was how poor Misha had to deal with food as a prop and get his lines out around the food.
- I asked this once at the beginning of season five, whether or not Jimmy was still alive. I still lean toward him being dead. Being blown to smithereens by an archangel is tough. And why would whatever/whoever brought Castiel back, bring Jimmy back, too? Only to, it could be guessed, suffer more? Since we've already heard it's not exactly cake and ice cream being used as a vessel.
I don't really think anything said tonight actually negated any of this.
- Thank you, Sam! Finally admitting you're not okay! I hate that they keep doing that, "I'm okay. Are you okay? You're okay? Me, too" act. Nobody buys it, boys!
- Loved Cas' very easy one-handed shove of the armoire to block the door. I might have to go work on that "Castiel manhandles Dean and Dean likes it" fic now...
- They're going to need to let Cas' pants out after this. Dean should help him with the belt. ;)
- I love it when Sam kicks ass, even if it means horrible backsliding.
- Is Dean dead inside? I don't know. I don't want to believe he is, but what does that even mean?
I just keep going back to how everyone seems to be pushing him down, telling him that he'll say yes because that is his destiny, telling him that he's important only so far as he's Michael's vessel, telling him that he's not affected because he's dead inside. It's like...convincing him that whatever's inside of him is worthless, so he might as well say yes because what the hell else is he doing anyway? Just taking up space and prolonging the inevitable.
- The end. DEAN. OH, DEAN. He just wants someone to give him a little guidance, tell him what to do. Someone who has answers and isn't biased. I'm not sure he would say yes to Michael at this point, but I think he would maybe like someone to take the burden and make the decision for him. And deal with the consequences.
It reminded me a little of that scene in "Abandon All Hope" where Dean's on the radio with Bobby after Jo's been hurt. He's on the verge of breaking down, but Bobby essentially gets him to buck up and take control. I think people have been telling Dean to do that all his life. And after all of that, and all of the recent "You're life sucks, give in", Dean's just seriously fucking tired.
Damn. Now I think I need a drink.
