All television that isn't SPN suffers on Thursday nights because I am waiting impatiently for Dean and Sam and Castiel.

Although! TIM GUNN ON A TRAMPOLINE. ♥

The Project Runway/Supernatural crossover/AU thing is coming along nicely, though.

This time, seriously, the thoughts below the cut might be ridiculous. I'm kinda tired/wired and that's never a great combination. I might have better thoughts later. (Seriously, I feel kind of like a flaily idiot below the cut.)

Also, other than upcoming cast I remain UNSPOILED for the rest of the season.

Supernatural - "Point of No Return"

FUCK YEAH.

CASTIEL.

DEAN.

SAM.

BOBBY.

ADAM.

Do I actually need to have thinky-thoughts? Can I leave it at FUCK YEAH? And also THANK GOD?

Probably not.

Where to start...

- I have watched that scene of Castiel beating the shit out of Dean...many times. And I'm actually serious when I say mostly it was for research purposes because I'm like that, even when I'm going an alternate route. What catches me about it especially is the interaction at the end, the way Castiel's expression changes ever so slightly around Dean's "Do it. Just do it." (What is this, a Nike commercial?) I might be imagining it, but he telegraphs the unfisting of his hand with a softening of his mouth. Or something. I don't know, probably imagining it. But for me, I watch that and I feel like I can see him go from just anger to anger and sorrow. Or anger tempered with the fact that he's learning complicated emotional relationships from Dean and Sam.

I dunno.

It's also interesting that Dean doesn't even really try to fight back, other than defensive hands/arms and verbal "what the fuck?"-ing and the asking for mercy. Less interesting because, well, it's Castiel and I don't think he's given much thought (since the "I can throw you back in it" scene) to the fact that Castiel might turn that BAMF-itude on Dean himself. (Yes, BAMF-itude. I'm not winning at articulation at the moment. You get what I mean anyway.) So, surprise! Angelic wrath here in the form of a familiar, friendly face, totally kicking your ass.

You've also got the fact that, well, what's Dean going to be able to actually do to stop Castiel? Nada mucho.

Plus, it happens really fast.

But Dean just taking it goes nicely (if you can call it "nicely") with his "Do it" line. Dean's tired, and he wants something to be over.

- I would go write angry wall sex, but oh wait. Did that. ;) I might have to go do it some more, though. Yowza. Like, oh, maybe in the panic room. With Dean all making suggestive comments and Castiel slamming heavy doors.

- CASTIEL, YOU ARE ONE BADASS MOTHERFUCKER. That first fight scene? OMG. Angel has skills. Take your own advice, Dean; don't piss off the nerdy ones.

- It had to have cut, having Castiel actually tell him to his face that Sam has more faith in Dean than he does.

(Can you imagine, coming from the standpoint that they are clearly wrapped up messily in one another, the talk that could come out of all of this should everyone survive? I just...I love that Castiel is learning that the ones you care about can hurt and disappoint you, and that you can hurt and disappoint them in return, but at the end of the day...you're still going to carve a thing on your chest and take out five angels on your own because that's what you do. Even if some of it's ill-advised.

There's just so much packed between them.

I'm not really sure I got across what I was trying to get across there. ::shrug::)

- Dean/Castiel! It's beautiful! It's funny! It's angsty! There is a wonderfully layered relationship going on there and I love it like whoa. I bet you couldn't tell. I'm subtle.

And, seriously, the "blow me" line and Castiel's reaction along with the eye-fucking and Dean's "the last time somebody looked at me like that I got laid" (and then the looks afterward)...There was much flailing here. And Mom turning to me all o_O. It was brilliant.

(I've used the "blow me" line before on Castiel. Dean got blown. This amuses the crap out of me.)

- Speaking of my mom, beforehand we were talking about my PR/SPN fic which led to Mom envisioning Dean as the King of Mod. I said the skinny jeans would make his bowlegs stand out even more.

"He has bowlegs?" Mom asked.

"Uh. Yeeeees."

She has, apparently, not been looking lower than the face. (Understandable, it's a good face.) So she decided she'd look for them and then we basically never got to see them. Sad. I guess we'll have to pull out the DVDs and revisit an episode. Darn. ;)

- I love that Sam and Dean are working toward...not being the people who would sell the entire world to save the other. I'd say, "Zachariah, don't be so sure. They might prove you wrong." Except, oh wait, ZACHARIAH, YOU'VE BEEN OFFED. (I almost said, "You've been auf'ed," but that's PR slipping in again.)

He was an awesome villain, though.

- Was that Michael that contacted him at the beginning? When he says "boss", who does he actually mean?

- Bobby continues to break my heart. And then be awesome. And then break my heart some more.

- I was very happy with how the scene in the Green Room played out.

- I love Sam. Period. I love Dean, too. I love that they fuck up. And I love that they're working on that. And working on their relationship. (Not Wincest, just family.) They have never been healthy, and they're trying to get there.

And I am so happy that after two weeks of feeling really horrible about how this is going to go down, I feel slightly better. I hope that Dean's stopped rolling over and taking it. (He has been a little, I think, even when he was pretending he wasn't.) I hope that Sam's faith in him pays off. And that Sam can prove Dean wrong.

I feel like I should say more, but I'm tired of thinking.

- When Adam was all, "It's a trap," all I could hear was this: "I've been working on Admiral Ackbar from Return of the Jedi." It's a trap!

- Dear CW provider,

Please fix your sound issues so SPN stops sounding like it was recorded in a tin can. This is the third week and while you get used to it, it's a little weird.

Also, WHAT WERE YOU DOING WITH THE PICTURE TONIGHT YOU BASTARDS? YOU CUT CASTIEL OUT OF A COUPLE OF SCENES. DOWN TO HIS SHOULDER. YOU ARE DOUCHECANOES.

Ugh,
Me


- I was fine until I started thinking about the implications of Castiel carving that sigil into his chest. But I am cleaning to the fact that it only banishes angels, it doesn't actually, y'know, kill them. I'm just wondering what kind of problems having it actually on him might cause, if any.

So right now I'm thinking, he went in there, used it, and then we didn't see him again because the plan was to get the angels out of the way so Dean and Sam could do their thing. Once out of the way, Castiel still had to take care of them.

If I'm wrong, nobody tell me. I don't want to think about that.

Okay, so I caved and watched the episode. AND IT WAS SO WORTH IT. The subtext, I mean really..."Blow me, Cas." Dean, you shouldn't say stuff like that unless you want a certain angel to follow-up on that.

Now I should probably watch the previous two episodes.

WASN'T IT GREAT?? A good episode for you to tune in to. The previous two are good, but they're painful.

"Blow me, Cas." Dean, you shouldn't say stuff like that unless you want a certain angel to follow-up on that.

No, see, I think Dean says it in the hopes that Cas will follow-up on it. And is disappointed everytime Cas doesn't pick up on that.

Until one day, Dean says it when it's just the two of them. Distracted by something, he doesn't realize Castiel has moved closer until he's standing right at Dean's elbow, his chest hot all up Dean's arm even through their clothes.

"Dean," Castiel will say. "I thought at first it was an expression of anger, but you haven't frequently told me to...blow you. I'm beginning to think you mean something else by it."

At a loss for words, Dean's distracted by the way Castiel's mouth shapes the word "blow," the almost coy sweep of his eyelashes and tilt of his head. Like he's already found out the answer, already knows Dean's deepest and darkest - oh, wait - and is toying with him. Waiting for Dean to voice what he really wants.

Dean can do that. He swallows, mouth feeling dry, and licks his lips.

"Blow me."



Um. I'm, uh, gonna run this over to a word doc now and maybe write some porn. Maybe. ;)

He really is, isn't he? His subconscious is jumping up and down going, "DO ME, CAS. DO ME."

I like your interpretation of the fight scene very much - from what we've seen of Castiel compared to the other angels, there's a remoteness and alien quality that the other angels don't possess. But whether it's his extended contact with the Winchesters, or the ebbing of his grace, we're seeing more & more emotion bleeding through. When Dean kept gritting out "Do it!", Castiel was still so coldly furious at him, and yet he chose to knock him out via his angelic powers, not another fist to his face. It may sound weird, considering that Castiel had just been beating on him moments before, but that was one clear sign of friendship to me right there.

(And the fact that Bobby & Sam took the whole beatdown in stride? And that Sam planned ahead with Castiel to foil Dean's escape at the beginning? More proof of trust. HE'S FAMILY).

So much yes on Bobby, JFC. Was that the same gun he used to kill his wife? Because if so that will make my heart crack a little bit more.

I am clinging to the fact that it only banishes angels, it doesn't actually, y'know, kill them.

I figured so, because we've seen Zachariah banished at least twice (that I remember?) via sigil, and he didn't appear to be any worse for wear. Of course, Castiel isn't at full angel-wattage, and presumably he ends up in the same place as the other angels, so he still has to fight them. So I need to know ASAP that's he's okay!

And the slashy moments between Dean & Castiel were BLISS. &hearts

Doesn't sound weird to me at all. And Dean did banish Castiel to wherever before that, so I think there is a little bit of a give-and-take there between them. They hurt each other in the ways that they can, but they care about each other and they're not going to go for that "killing" blow. Also, I love how gentle Castiel is knocking Dean out with his angelic powers when compared with how violent he was before.

Of course, Castiel isn't at full angel-wattage, and presumably he ends up in the same place as the other angels, so he still has to fight them.

That's what I'm thinking. They all ended up someplace else, which opens up the floor for Sam and Dean to get into the room, but doesn't actually take care of the other angels. So I'm not too worried. At least, no more worried than I generally am about how the rest of the season is going to go for the characters I love.

The slashy moments were things of BEAUTY. They're just giving it to us on a silver platter now.

"Blow me, Cas" OMFG YES!!!! XD

Oh dear, I loved this ep so much I'm still jumping up and down!! (of course it may have something to do with having watched it not ten minutes ago XD)

Cas is/will be OK. His grace wasn't hurt, just sent to Oz.

Right?

I think my first reaction to the "blow me" line was basically :O

Followed by, did he really just say that like that? OMG he did!

I'm pretty sure Cas is okay, just...yeah. Sent to Oz. Fighting the angels he banished with himself. Maybe de-angel-ified? I think Castiel is too prominant a character for that to have been...it, y'know? I think they wouldn't have left us with any doubt.

You know, lately I've been reading a lot of your fics and although I've never commented (I'm not fluent in English and therefore I never know what to say), I really enjoy them.

So when Dean said "blow me" to Cas? Yeah, I thought of your fic xD I was a little disappointed when Cas didn't say "okay" xD

Does Dean remember that Cas tends to take words quite literally? With all that epic eye-sex, I guess he does xD

I'm sure Cas is okay and he'll be around soon.

Oh, I'm so happy to hear you enjoy my fics! :D

I was a little disappointed when Cas didn't say "okay"

Me too, a little. That scene would have gone in a completely different direction if Castiel had said "okay." And it would have been hilarious.

I can just picture everyone turning to Cas, "Whaaaat?" And then Dean, alone, "Really?"

I just read something today that said when people look one another in the eyes for longer than five seconds, they're either going to fight or kiss. Dean and Cas should stop staring and get to it!

I'm sure Cas is okay and he'll be around soon.

I think you're right. I'm just a worrier. :)

This episode almost killed me many times. The first few were the comments Dean kept telling Cas, then Cas' expressions...Then Dean having the balls to...banish Cas...when he did that I knew right away why Cas was going to beat his ass. Hell, I would beat his ass for what he did just then.
Then it was those moments with Sam and Dean and ofcourse Cas' chest scene, even though it was covered in a sigil and all...it was still his chest yo! I died a happy little death then.
My happier death was when Dean killed Zach and then when him and Sam (FINALLY) decided they were going to take the war to them angels.
And yeah...I am worried about Cas, I don't think him carving the sigil in his chest was a good thing. But I don't think he's dead, maybe just super injured? I dunno, the banishing could mean Cas is trapped somewhere until the sigil heals? I dunno maaaaan...
I wonder where Gabriel is...and that kid...the anti-christ (I'm really bad with names sorry XS)
If anyone was a good ally for their war thing, I'm sure it would be the kid....after all he's the anti-christ right?
Well, I'm not going to find myself the trailer for episode 101, (lol dalmations) and if you have any teasers, please share!!!!!

Before the episode, I could totally have seen Castiel beating him because of Dean just...taking off into the night and leaving them in order to make a deal and go say "yes." After the banishing though, the smack-down made even more sense.

My happier death was when Dean killed Zach and then when him and Sam (FINALLY) decided they were going to take the war to them angels.

Oh, I was so happy when they finally decided to stop sitting around trying to keep and decided to get way more proactive about the whole thing. It won't be easier, but it might give Dean and Sam more to work with.

Yeah, I think Cas is probably fine. Injured or de-angel-fied or just busy taking care of those angels he banished along with himself.

It would be interesting if they addressed the antichrist again. I can't remember off the top of my head, but didn't he take off for another country? I think they employed he teleported himself to Australia.

I'm just waiting for Gabriel to return.

episode 101, (lol dalmations)

omg, that made me laugh more than it probably should have.

Sadly, I have no teasers.

I couldn't agree more. On EVERYTHING. Just finished watching it, one day after everyone else (how I remain unspoiled is a miracle to me) and I couldn't stop flailing.
"Blow me, Cas!" OMG, yes! And you used it first! lol I loved this episode so much! *flails some more*
OK, I'll stop now. I should probably sleep, I'm starting to ramble. The point was, I agree with your thinky thoughts. :P

It is soooo hard to remain unspoiled when your flist is suddenly full of responses to the episode! But I am determined to continue as unspoiled as I can through the rest of the season.

After the last couple of episodes, it's really nice to have one that we can full-on flail over. It's been a couple of days now and I'm still flailing about and resisting the urge to put things in CAPSLOCK. :D But it was SO GOOD.

This was a really good eps. wasn't it. Still, my favorite parts were the Dean/Cas scenes. The UST between them was just downright ridiculous! Hot but ridiculous!

And that fight? Damn! In context, it all makes sense but it still hurts to watch.

Cas and Dean have such a complicated relationship that's full of ups and downs and they are constantly challenging each other in new ways. It's the best.

The UST really is ridiculous, isn't it? Like, off the charts. How anyone watches this show and doesn't see it is beyond me.

Cas and Dean have such a complicated relationship that's full of ups and downs and they are constantly challenging each other in new ways. It's the best.

It really is! It's painful - right now especially - but I love that it's layered and complicated and that some things between them are easy, but some things are just going to be difficult. It makes it...better and deeper, I think.
