I want to thank [livejournal.com profile] squishyball for directing me to these spoilers the other day, although I can't say they did good for my fangirl heart. So if you're like me, you'll compose yourself before reading those first and then join me for some capslocking and general talk about them.

The heartbreak really begins with “The Man Who Would Be King,” the first episode being directed by fan-fave writer Ben Edlund. “It’s the story of Castiel looking over his life, and then it turns into Castiel looking into his relationships,” he says. “If it does it’s job, it’ll break your heart.”


WHUT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO TO ME SHOW? SRSLY.

I mean seriously, how much more does Castiel have to suffer on this show? I mean granted Supernatural always carries the angst ad nauseum and I do like angst when it's appropriate, but this season he's been carrying an entire burden and weight on his shoulders and not even Dean or Sam bother on even trying to help him with, or find the courtesy of asking earlier on about his war or empathize with what he has been doing when he isn't constantly with them 24/7 (LOOKING AT YOU DEAN, BEING AN INSENSITIVE JERKOFF TO YOUR BOYFRIEND >:|) I honestly believe that Castiel has been wearing thin for a long while now, just barely hanging on and whatever is happening he has to make tough decisions based on these relationships of his. Either his relationship with the Winchesters or with Balthazar and the rest of his brothers, what is right and what he must do, and obviously this episode will be an overview of how his entire existence has been shifted and changed due to these relationships, but it makes me wonder what this heartbreak will be and what causes it, either what decision/choices he makes or something is done to him, idk. It makes me fear the worst, tbh. It's gonna break me and with the other previous spoilers regarding Castiel for the duration of the season...especially with the finale, I just, I don't know what to think right now.

CAN'T THEY ALL JUST FUCKING HUG IT OUT AND BE FRIENDS AGAIN? AND DEAN WILL APOLOGIZE TO HIS ANGEL BF AND THEY CAN GET BACK TO THEIR ~PROFOUND BONDING~ AND ALL THAT JAZZ? CAN'T WE HAVE HAPPY-SLIGHTLY-CONFUSED-ABOUT-HUMANITY CAS BACK PLZ? WHY MUST HE BE SUFFERING RIGHT NOW, LOOKING TIRED AND EXHAUSTED AND SO WORN OUT READY TO DO WHATEVER IN DEFEAT? I JUST, I CANT. MY POOR BB. ;___;

FOR SOME REASON, I PERSONALLY THINK SOMEONE IN CASTIEL'S LITTLE ANGELICAL RECRUITED GROUP WILL BETRAY HIM, ESP BASED ON THE OTHER SPOILERS THAT HE DOESN'T KNOW WHO TO TRUST, AKA THE "RELUCTANT ALLY" BIT. D: D: D: D:

EDLUND, YOU GENIUS MASTERMIND. YOU BRING THE BRILLIANCE TO EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO. ILU BUT DAMN, YOU WILL BRING THE CREYS IN THIS ONE. ;____;

Honestly? I am not surprised. Between this and the Titanic spoiler, I am not pleased with this season at all.

I thought Castiel was badly used in S5 but THIS is even worse! Who knew?

Another that bus me is the whole Civil War. I mean what should be a HUGE plot in this season is basically told off screen along with with a bunch of other plot lines (Purgatory, The Campbells, Soulless Sam) that seemed to go no where. I mean what's the point?

I've hated this season. Sure there are episodes that I have liked but they are only like a few, and an overall view of this season is that it's been so horrible because of how inconsistent they have been, and the arc direction is just awful. It would take an entire miracle to wrap it up and make sense in the last three episodes (a.k.a. where all the shit is about to get real.)

However, despite that I'm actually really intrigued (and scared) on the Castiel storyline here. On one hand they're actually dealing with his character and Edlund is going to not only be writing 6.20 but also directing, which means his character will be in good hands. On the other hand, it makes me wonder why they didn't introduce more earlier into the season and it makes me anxious about what they plan on doing with him in the two-part finale. It'll be a cliffhanger, so I don't want to think about them ruining him or breaking him further. And while I like character angst and certain turmoils to happen, since conflicted!Castiel is my favorite, I'm worried what this could mean regarding his relationship with the boys, particularly with Dean because they haven't been on good terms all season and it's scaring me how they keep teasing us about what the finale might hold. ;__;
