They didn't show us Sam's face saying he loved the hunting lifestyle.
Such a huge change going way back to quoting the Pilot, and they didn't show us Sam's face.

I know I am supposed to believe it, but I'm having a little trouble really believing Sam is passionate-happy about anything, though "love it" can be many things... I need this developed more deeply in fic and connected to the past. I can accept that the Bunker and MOL thing was maybe a turning point, that moment Dean gave Sam his blessing there. And Meg wasn't effective in bothering Sam about it in Goodbye Stranger because it was beginning to not be true. It can be a very cool switch, Dean with his beach vacation (shout out to SPN discourse) and Sam wanting to hunt, but it would require much more depth.

OK, two other things ("I lied")

I finally liked Metatron in this episode, right from his first scene ('arousing'), and annoying Cas, that was awesome. And his monologue about the thing that he and Cas did that was so Dynamic Duo? I for real was certain he was talking about his and Cas' adventures in pantsless bathroom doings.

Also - I always recognize Robbie, even when it's not his usual sort of ep, for his Tumblr shoutouts and enriching relationships and characters, and trying to tie up loose ends (even if IMO he lives in Tumblr fandom and so is just more knowledgeable abut later eps that the early ones, for all he rewatches then). He always writes the best Metatron, and probably Charlie.

Did anyone but Robbie actually remember Metatron had the demon tablet?
Also few weeks ago I arbitrarily made up Osric coming back this season. Perhaps he can read all that stuff, teach Metatron how to control his pet Demon Dean and give us some Stockholm Syndrome fic.

I was so pissed to see that tweet from Misha on my feed. I don't even follow him. Grrrrrrrr.

I don't know when Sam turned to loving hunting but I'd like to see more depth in that. Just like I'd like a little more info on the "Dean's getting worse". How? Because he had a nightmare? Because he can't hold the book of the damned? He used the blade to kill Cain and then gave it to Cas and the mark hasn't taken over in any violent situations he's been in since then. Don't get me wrong, I definitely want to see Dean getting worse. I just haven't seen it so far.

Oh no! I haven't seen a tweet, he gave two spoilers on Facebook (too)
Naughty Misha!

Yeah, Dean hasn't been shown getting worst.
Just like every time someone references the horrors of him being a demon I kinda fill in the, you know - "I can't see you become a demon again, Dean. Your singing was horrendous".

But I d obelieve that Sam is super worried, just cause he's seeing Dean's nerves fraying and - like it's almost unbearable for me to watch, as well - Dean without hope. Its so heavy. dark.

It's bad enough that the CW keep leaking snippets of info all over the place but Misha needs a good slapping for what ever he said - and don't tell me because I think I've avoided it so far! LOL

I really enjoyed this one, and I actually loved the Metatron Cas show too, it was really funny. I was totally with you re: the bathroom shenanigans, I thought he was talking about that too!! I kind of did a double take when they made it something else.

Oooh I like your idea about Metatron and Demon!Dean... I hadn't thought of that. I'm still writing a fic for your comment meme on E18 - that'll teach me to be so blooming slow

I'm about to lop someone off my flist for spoiler-y things. They put the spoiler under a cut but then gave it away with how they tagged it.

I'm sure Metatron's not done with Dean. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Who was it? In case they are on my list too - I really hate being gratuitously spoiled. I'm trying to stay off tumblr and twitter because they are the WORST.

Yay! I wa n't the only one!!1

Als - oooh, cool! Fic by you for the meme!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

But it's taking me soooo long and it's not even a long fic!

Writing fills is an awesone thing to do, regardless!1

What spoiler did Misha tweet? I must have missed it. Can someone DM me?
