HOLY SHIT. HOLY SHIT. HOLY SHIT. HOLY SHIT. U GUISE THIS WAS PERHAPS THE MOST INTENSE/SADDEST/DARK EPISODE OF THE SEASON, IDK IF THIS TIES UP WITH "THE END" OR NOT, BUT JUST HOLY SHIT IDEK HOW TO PROPERLY RESPONSE TO THIS AS A WHOLE. INCOHERENT SELF IS INCOHERENT.

FIRST OF ALL, MALE/MALE KISSAGE! \O/ \O/ \O/ SEE? THE SHOW CAN SHOW TEH GAYNESS, NOW WE JUST NEED SOME DEAN/CASTIEL SMOOCHING! GET TO IT, KRIPKE!

SPEAKING OF, CASTIEL WAS SPYING ON THE KISSING! AH VOYEURISM. ALSO, "GOING DOWN"? LOL OH CAS YOU KNOW HOW THAT SOUNDS, RIGHT? AND THEN DEAN GOING "HUGGY BEAR"? LOL OH SHOW.

MARK SHEPPARD AS CROWLEY! NOT ONLY GOOD OMENS REFERENCE, BUT IT'S ROMO LAMPKIN! :D :D :D MORE BSG PARALLELING, YAY!

SEEING THINGS FROM CASTIEL'S POV? HOLY SHIT, THAT WAS LIKE, WHOA. IMPRESSIVE SPECIAL EFFECTS RIGHT THERE. THE ENTIRE THING WITH THE ENOCHIAN WRITINGS AND THEN SEEING THE REAPERS (MORE THAN ONE!) AND THEN BEING IN ONE PLACE AND THEN HAVING THE CAMERA PAN AROUND AND HE'S SOMEWHERE ELSE? JUST, WOW. THAT WAS VERY CLEVER KIND OF WAY OF FILMING FOR THIS EPISODE, I AM IN LOVE WITH IT. MOSTLY BECAUSE ANYTHING WITH CASTIEL = ME SQUEEING, BUT REALLY, JUST FROM A CREATIVE POINT OF VIEW IT WAS FANTASTIC. JUST, WHOA.

CROWLEY AND THE BOYS WAS THE MOST AMAZING INTERACTION EVER. "MORONS!!!!" XD XD XD

LOL @ CASTIEL DOWNING SHOTS, ONE AFTER ANOTHER. XD XD XD I'M GUESSING HE KINDA LIKES THE TASTE OF ALCOHOL AFTER THE WHOREHOUSE. BUT I'M GUESSING HE DOESN'T GET DRUNK THAT EASILY, BECAUSE THE "I THINK I'M STARTING TO FEEL SOMETHING LINE" WAS LOLARIOUS (AND SOMETHING I THINK I'VE READ IN WAY TOO MANY FANFICS, LOL)

GETTING THEIR PICTURE TAKEN, LOL. I SAW THE SPOILER CLIP FROM SPACE (SRSLY, CANADIAN PROMOS HAVE THE BEST PROMOS EVER) AND JUST THE FACT THAT CASTIEL WAS ALL DEADPAN WITH HIS OH-SO-OPTIMISM. YES, SARCASM INCLUDED, AND EVERYONE NOT SMILING AND LOOKING ALL SAD. VERY FORESHADOWING AND OMINOUS.

THE HARVELLE WOMEN. OH MY GOD. I KINDA KNEW THAT THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, IT'S SAD BUT I LIKED HOW THEY MADE IT SELF-SACRIFICING FOR THE GREATER GOOD. EVEN IF IT REALLY DIDN'T ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING, JUST LANDED THE BOYS BACK AT SQUARE ONE. FIRST OF ALL, I LOVE JO. I LOVE HER CHARACTER GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT SINCE SEASON TWO AND THAT SHE AND ELLEN WERE HUNTING TOGETHER AFTER ALL THAT'S HAPPENED. IT'S GREAT TO SEE SUCH A MOTHER-DAUGHTER TEAM LIKE THAT.

ALSO? SELF-RESPECT. YES. EXACTLY. WE DON'T WANT ANOTHER HORRENDOUS REPEAT OF THE LAME-O "LAST NIGHT ON EARTH" PUKE-FEST THAT WAS FROM LAST SEASON (WHICH I FEARED THEY WOULD REPEAT THAT THIS EPISODE, THANK GOODNESS THEY DIDN'T AND LEARNED FROM THEIR MISTAKE FROM THAT BULLSHIT), AND AT LEAST JO HAS SOME STANDARDS AND PRIORITIES OF SELF-RESPECT. THIS IS WHY I ADORE JO SO MUCH. ♥ ♥ ♥

I'M BETTING THERE'S ANGER ABOUT JO AND ELLEN'S DEATHS, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? IT WAS HONORABLE DEATHS. THEY WENT OUT TOGETHER, AS MOTHER AND DAUGHTER, FOR THE BIGGER CAUSE KNOWING THAT THESE ARE HIGHER STAKES. AND WE GOT A LOT OF SCREEN TIME WITH THEM. IMO, THEIR DEATHS WERE JUSTIFIED.

CASTIEL AND LUCIFER FACE-OFF!

OKAY, NOT REALLY THE BIG FACE-OFF, BUT STILL, IT WAS INTENSE. VERY. ALSO? CASTIEL SEEMED VERY APPREHENSIVE WHEN SPEAKING TO LUCIFER, DID Y'ALL NOTICE? HE WAS SPEAKING KINDA SOFTLY, BUT ALSO VERY AFRAID TOO, LIKE IF HE SAID THE WRONG THING EVERYTHING WOULD CRUMBLE BEFORE HIM. WHICH I'M SURE IN THE PRESENCE OF LUCIFER OF COURSE THAT WOULD MAKE ANYONE JUST ALL SILENT. UNLIKE SAM, WHO JUST SNARLED AT HIM TOWARDS THE END. BUT CASTIEL? HOLY SHIT, WITH THE ILLUMINATING LIGHT FROM THE FIRE AND THE CLOSE-UP SHOTS, THOSE PUPPY-DOG EYES OF HIS? JUST, OMG IDEK.

LOL THE TALK ABOUT CASTIEL RIDING IN A CAR WAS LOLARIOUS. IT WAS SLOW. CONFIDING. AND I LIKE THAT LUCIFER ACTUALLY ASKED WHAT IT WAS LIKE, AS THOUGH HE WASN'T SURE HIMSELF. XD

AND WAS IT ME, OR DOES LUCIFER PRONOUNCE "CASTIEL" DIFFERENTLY?

CASTIEL DOESN'T HAVE HIS MOJO TO EXORCISE DEMONS! D: D: D: D:

DID ANYONE THINK THAT CASTIEL WAS GOING TO KISS MEG FOR A SPLIT SECOND? OR MEG WAS GOING TO KISS HIM? OF COURSE IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN, BUT DAMMIT IF ONLY I COULDN'T BEEN IN MEG'S PLACE JUST FOR THAT SECOND AH FORGET IT, I GOT TO HUG MISHA COLLINS AT THE CHICAGO CON, BUT Y'ALL KNOW WHAT I MEAN! BUT DAMN, CASTIEL NOT ONLY DID HIS TELEKINETIC TRICKS, HE THREW MEG ONTO THE FLAMING FIRE AND STEPPED ON HER TO GET OUT! OUR PRECIOUS ANGEL IS RESOURCEFUL! :D :D :D BAMF, HERE HE COMES!

AND HE WENT TO SAVE THE BOYS! AWWW, YAY CAS! \O/

LUCIFER - OH MAN, LUCIFER, IDEK. HE'S A LOT MORE SCARIER NOW THAN BEFORE. HOW DID THIS HAPPEN? I'M ACTUALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING HOW HIS MASTER PLAN PLAYS OUT, NGL.

AND THE BOYS DIDN'T SAVE THE DAY. THEY DIDN'T KILL LUCIFER. THE COLT DIDN'T WORK ON HIM (WHICH IS VERY INTERESTING, HAVE MORE THOUGHTS ON THAT LATER). JO AND ELLEN SACRIFICED THEMSELVES - WHICH WAS VERY KENDRA SHAW OF THEM (ANOTHER BSG REFERENCE, IN CASE ANYONE WAS WONDERING). JUST, FUCK. THIS SHOW, I SWEAR.

BUT BOBBY - WHY DID YOU BURN THE PHOTOGRAPH?! DIDN'T YOU SAY YOU WANTED TO SAVE IT TO REMEMBER THEIR "SORRY ASSES" BY? SAD AS MOST WERE LOOKING, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A NICE REMEMBRANCE. NOT A HAPPY ONE, BUT STILL. PLUS, IT HAS CASTIEL IN IT! IT'S RARE THAT YOU GET CASTIEL, ANGEL OF THE LORD, TO TAKE A FREAKING GROUP PHOTOGRAPH?

BUT I'M SURE DEAN WILL DO THE SAME THING WITH HIM AND SAM AND CASTIEL SOMEWHERE DOWN THE LINE.

THIS EPISODE WAS LIKE, DARK INTENSE AND DEPRESSING ALMOST ON THE LEVEL OF BSG-DEPRESSING, PARTICULARLY WITH THE SACRIFICING AND NOT WINNING ANYTHING. D: D:

SHIT JUST GOT REAL.


I'M STILL RECOVERING FROM THE CHICAGO CON YOU GUYS, AND THEN THIS EPISODE HAPPENS, AND NOW WE HAVE LIKE TWO MONTHS BEFORE A NEW EPISODE IS SHOWN? WHY OH WHY MUST THEY DO THIS TO US?! I DON'T THINK I CAN STAND THE TORTURE OF IT ALL.

By the way, yes I will be posting my full Chicago con report shortly, I figured since there was a new episode tonight everyone would be more focused on that so I'll wait until tomorrow or the weekend. Plus, since I arrived back home I caught a very, very nasty cold so I was stuck in bed for two days suffering from being so sick. But I'm like 95% better now so, yeah. No worries. ;)

IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO JOIN THE PARTY, BB! ;D

I FUCKING LOVE MARK SHEPPARD, SO MUCH. HE'S BEEN IN PRACTICALLY EVERYTHING AND I STILL NEVER GET TIRED OF SEEING HIM CRASHING IN ON MY OTHER FANDOMS. AND HIM AS CROWLEY? WAS EPIC SHIT, I LOVED HIM. HE REALLY DOES NEED TO COME BACK. AND THAT KISS, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS SEALING THE DEAL AT THE CROSSROADS KINDA KISS, IT WAS STILL THE FIRST MALE/MALE KISS ON THE ENTIRE SHOW. EVER.

WE WANTS DEAN/CASTIEL NEXT, M'KAY KRIPKE! IT'S PRACTICALLY CANON ANYWAY, SO MIGHT AS WELL "SEAL THE DEAL" ON THAT TOO! ;D

even though it raised questions for me that iF a powered down Cas could manipulate things to get out of the ring of fire, I'm sure power saturated arch angels would have no problem

I'M WONDERING THIS TOO. I'LL HAVE MORE THOUGHTS ON THIS LATER, BUT IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO SEE HOW THEY PLANNED THIS OUT. NOT THAT I DIDN'T ENJOY BECAUSE, HELLO, BAMF ANGEL STEPPING OVER MEG!BRIDGE WAS BADASS LIKE WHOA, BUT YEAH. YOU HAVE TO QUESTION ABOUT THAT JUST A LITTLE BIT.

CASTIEL WAS TOTALLY HOT IN THIS EPISODE, HOTTER THAN USUAL, IF THAT'S EVEN POSSIBLE. XD HIM IN FIRELIGHT IS JUST SO, NNNGH.

I'M VERY INTRIGUED WITH LUCIFER, HE'S REALLY MANIPULATING OTHERS TO PARALLEL THEMSELVES INTO HIM IN WAYS, ENTICING THEM WITH THE "I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL", WITH CASTIEL TELLING HIM THEY'RE ON THE SAME SIDE (WHICH UM, NO THEY'RE SO NOT AND CASTIEL KNOWS THIS) AND TELLING SAM ABOUT BEING THE OUTCAST YOUNGER BROTHER AND ALL OF THAT. LUCIFER REALLY KNOWS HOW TO PUSH THOSE BUTTONS. IT MAKES ME ANTICIPATE WHEN HE'LL SHOW UP AGAIN.

AND I LIKED THAT THE DEATHS TURNED OUT TO BE FOR NOTHING, THIS IS WAR AND THAT'S HOW IT GOES SOMETIMES.

YES! THIS. EXACTLY. AND A LOT OF PEOPLE AREN'T GETTING THAT - WHINING ABOUT "OH WAH THEY KILLED OFF TWO WOMEN THE SHOW IS SEXIST AND MISOGYNISTIC!" INSTEAD OF SEEING THE OVERALL PICTURE. THIS IS WAR. DEATH HAPPENS, SOMETIMES UNEXPECTEDLY, SOMETIMES WITHOUT MUCH THOUGHT, AND SOMETIMES UNDER THE FALSE HOPE THAT SOMETHING WILL GO RIGHT AND THEN IT DOESN'T AND IT WAS ALL JUST FOR NOTHING. WHICH IS WHY THIS REMINDS ME OF BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, WHERE CHARACTERS WILL DIE BUT SOMETIMES IT'LL HOLD NO MEANING TO THE CAUSE AFTERWARD. THEY'RE JUST GONE.

AT LEAST THEY DIED IN A STOIC, HEROIC MANNER. AND I WAS REALLY, REALLY IMPRESSED WITH HOW THEY HANDLED IT. THEY REALLY MADE IT ABOUT THE HARVELLE GIRLS STICKING TOGETHER AS A FAMILY, NO MATTER WHAT, AND HEARTBREAKING AS IT WAS IT WAS POWERFUL. KUDOS SHOW, MUCH KUDOS TO YOU FOR THIS.

I WAS ACTUALLY WAITING FOR THEM TO PAN TO CASTIEL AFTER THEY PANNED TO SAM, BUT WAS DISAPPOINTED WHEN THEY DIDN'T. I WAS LIKE, REALLY? HE'S NOT THERE?

I WANNA SEE DEATH TOO! D: WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL WE COME BACK TO SEE, IF THEY SHOW DEATH RIGHT AWAY THAT IS. OMGWHUT TWO MONTHS A;SDJF;ALSJDF

THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE PAINFUL HIATUS (ALTHOUGH, WHAT ABOUT THOSE WEBISODES I KEEP HEARING ABOUT? ARE THEY GOING TO BE SHOWING THEM DURING THE HIATUS OR AFTER?)
