Hi flist, how are you? I'm ok, just busy and a little tired. Will catch up with you tomorrow but at least I managed to watch the last episode :)





I really enjoyed the episode and I love where SPN is going.

I wish I could be more coherent :)


-Castiel
I loved the interaction between Anna and Castiel. How she tried to open his eyes, how he was about to fall and then he refused to doubt.
Castiel is an awesome, complicated character. Doubts, fears, questions. He is like Dean. He doens't have easy answers anymore. He's not sure anymore. The way he talked to Uriel and Anna, his feeling so alone and ready to disobey, makes him so special and more able to understand humans. With Anna leaving him alone, Castiel had to find his way to deal with what was happening, just like Dean. He did and now he iscloser to the human beings he is supposed to protect.


Castiel vs Uriel
Uriel being the one killing the angels was a great idea. So much in that scene. Betrayal, love, faith, devotion...each of them fighting on a side, thinking to be right. But only one was.
Just like Dean and Sam.
I see the same conversation between the brothers.

Castiel and Dean.
Their relationship is getting stronger. They can fight, discuss, disagree, but I think in this moment they are bot together in this. While Dean and Sam are parting ways, Castiel and Dean are getting closer. Castiel is learning to see things through Dean's eyes, while Dean can only rely on Castiel for some answers.
Dean was the first seal to be broken, so he started everything, now he is the only one who can finish it. Guess because he is a beautiful soul.
The last scene between them broke me, because they were both broken, lost, alone.


-Dean
I loved every second of him in the episode. From the discussion he had with Uriel to the end, broken, tired Dean.
Torturing Alaistair? It didn't bother me. Dean was blackmailed...do it or go to Hell again. Uriel didn't say it but I guess it's what he meant. The angels played with Dean, his sense of guilt and responsability. Could really Dean refuse when Castiel said it's their only chance? No, for everything he had been taught during all his life, he couldn't simply say no.
I also think that there were so many mixed feelings in Dean when he was in front of Alaistair. He was having the chance of a payback, doing to the demon what he had done to him and I find it human, wrong maybe, but human.
Iloved the whole scene of the torture, what Alaistair said and how Dean reacted. New Dean? Less human? Maybe...Dean is both innocent and guilty and he knows, he chooses what to do and he pays for his choices. He never runs away.
I think he enjoyed torturing the demon while he was doing it. Then I think he regretted it, as a lot of the things he did in Hell.
Dean won't ever be the same. It's like a soldier who is fighting his last battle. He has nothing left to lose.
Alaistair revealed he was the first seal. This will burden him forever. De facto he was the righteous man who shed blood in Hell, this can't be changed. A good man turned in a cruel one to save himself.
Can Dean be blamed for this? I don't think so, but Dean will take the burden and live with it. He would be destroyed eventually but he won't run away. He would be tempted, but he will fight and even die for it. I guess he thinks there is no hope for him.

-Sam
He didn't believe Dean was strong enough to get the job done. He could be right but the point is that he wasn't against what the angels asked. No moral walls. Alaistair had to be tortured. He would have done it. No matter what the implications are.
So Sam is a demon blood addicted...It's time Sam stops to give moral jutification for what he does. It's time he learns to choose and accept the consequences of what he does without trying to justify himself. I don't balem him for drinking demon' blood, even though I think it's terribly wrong, I just want Sam to admit what he is doing without hiding. I want him to face Dean and tell him the truth, even if Dean will disapprove it. Sam has to come clean. He hides because he fears Dean's reaction? Sure, but imo he does because he is not totally convinced that he is doing the right thing. Either way, he needs to grow up. I am sad but I think that his reasons are not only saving the world, are more about him and how he feels. The sense of power he feels.
So clear when he was tortuting Alaistair. I have to say I don't agree with Sam's choices but I do love watching his evolution. I have the feeling this is going to separate him and Dean for a long time but I think it's needed and I think it's fair to Sam character giving him the chance of exploring what he really his.


-Sam allowed Ruby to call him Sammy...it was annoying but I don't think this need an explanation.

-Misha was awesome... and hot.

-Jensen was brilliant, he still amazes me with his talent. Oh yes...he was superhot!

My personal idea about where SPN is going? Dean and Sam fighting, their relationship destroyed and S5? About redemption, for both of them, about rebuilding themselves and their bond.

yeah I know you didn't use it here but I remember you called him that in an old entry... anyway I wanted to explain you my whole opinion so I got past your post to talk about everything, sorry for that.

I agrreed with you on that... I think Sam deeps inside doesn't like what he is doing so he kind of doesn't want to admit it not even with himself... and remember his glance when Pam told him to think twice about what he was doing?
it's like he knows he is doing wrong in those moments but then he comes back to think he has to do it no matter what it takes...

and yeah, i know I demnad too much from Dean, it's just that it hurts to see him like that and honestly I do believe we'll see more from Dean Winchester.. he is not done yet. ;)

Sure it isn't Dean vs Sam... I got all protective with Sam when I see some hard comments against him that I think he doesn't deserve but I do the same with Dean, I assure you that...

oh and I forgot before... I agree on your vision of S4end/S5 and honestly I can't wait for them to rebuild their relationship. *hopes*

*muavh*

I think Sam was selfish but I don't think this is negative per se. Dean was in his own way too. I just feel closer to Dean.

Exactly...I agree with what you wrote about Dean and Sam. It hurts to see Dean that way and it bothers me to see Sam unable to accept what he is done. If you chose you must be mature enough to embrace your choice. Btw I guess its all a matter of time. Sam will do it.

have a nice evening darling!

I hope that so much! because I can keep defending him if I think about the reasons he is doing it rationally... but damn it if I don't want to punch every time he says some bullshit that doesn't fool anyone. XD

thanks, you too Vale.
:D
