Life has been crap, but the following things are not:

1. [personal profile] camelotremix/[livejournal.com profile] camelotremix! I cannot resist a remix challenge. I guess it's time to see how much my Merlin mojo has atrophied.

2. [livejournal.com profile] girlsofspn. Doing my bit to put more Anna, Claire, and Becky out in the world. I'm waiting to see what I get for spnrarepairs and castielfest first before I sign up. Perhaps I'll ask for art?

3. "Awesome POC are awesome comment-a-thon" and the DW mirror.

4. SPN 6x03, apparently. Come flail about it with me in the comments! Wild conjecture is encouraged!

5. Five five five, hmmmmm, five. How about telling me a fic in one sentence?

Best present Dean ever got Sam for a long time was that library book, you remember the one, Sammy, about polar bears? Well, it kept him so happy that South Dakota July that when they up and moved back to Kansas Dean accidentally forgot to return it, and Sam dreamed of ice floes for months.

Dreaming of snowscapes in the middle of summer <3. Did Sam dream he was on that ice floe and he drifted off to the horizon? :D

[identity profile] zempasuchil.livejournal.com 2010-08-09 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yes he did. He told Dean that part of his dream and Dean said, Don't worry Sammy, you won't float away, you'll stay here with me and Dad. But he didn't get it; Sam wasn't scared of that at all.

Dean has a letter he never sent to Sam because he can't stand to see the pity in his brother's eyes when he's supposed to be the strong one of the family, someone for Sammy to cling to when he's scared.

CAS CAN EYESEX BETTER THAN ANY ANGEL. HE'S GOT LOTS OF PRACTISE AFTER ALL WITH DEAN AND SAM AND ANNA. HELL, THE POWERS OF HIS EYEFUCKERY TOOK DOWN MEG. IT IS A SKILL, AND WAS PROBABLY HONED OVER AGES OF REPRESSED ANGEL-VIRGIN-ISM WITH BEST FRIEND BALTHAZAR.

OH GOD ANGEL REUNION I CANNOT WAAAAAIT.

I MEAN, HOW ARE THEY GOING TO SLIP IT IN?

'REMEMBER WHEN THEY WERE TORTURING YOU BACK TO OBEDIENCE AND I STOOD UP FOR YOU WITH ALL THE POWERS OF OUR MUTUAL EYESEX?'

OR LIKE, 'I AM PLEASED TO SEE YOU' 'I FEARED YOU MIGHT BE DEAD' 'I COULD NEVER DIE WITH YOU TO COME BACK TO'

OKAY I'M GETTING A LITTLE CHEESY. BUT WHAT I MEAN IS THAT I ALSO WANT TO DIE BY BFF-NESS.

MAYBE DEAN WILL BE JEALOUS.

REUNION! WITH MOTHEREFFING RAPHAEL!! Where has he been all this time? Just chilling there in the ring of fire? All this time? Did Michael eventually come get him and give him a wag of the finger for being an embarrassment to the family?

SERIOUSLY, HOW? Is it that Raph and Cas are fighting, and Balthazar comes to the rescue? Is it that Raph and Balthazar are fighting, and Cas comes to the rescue? Do Cas and Balthazar then gang up on Raph and unleash some epic angel ninjutsu, and then afterward they stare at each other all "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S YOU"?

And Dean is like, "Woah, woah, you guys know each other?"

And Balthazar says, "Castiel, it has been too long," and neither of the angels are even looking at Dean.

HAHAH OH MY, I WILL HYPOTHESIZE MYSELF SILLY that when 6x03 comes I will probably be disappointed BUT I DON'T CARE. I WILL HYPOTHESIZE MY LITTLE HEART AWAY 8DDDDDD


and then and then later when Castiel finds out about the sketchy goings-on that Balthazar's been doing, he is like D: and oh man it is just like Uriel and Anael all over again DDD: OH GOD I HOPE BALTHAZAR ISN'T A ONE-EPISODER DOOMED VILLAIN-OF-THE-WEEK

[identity profile] metonomia.livejournal.com 2010-08-08 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
THAT IS EXACTLY HOW I WANT IT TO GO DOWN.

Especially how it's been too long! They've been busy, there's been stuff to do, but they've missed each other SO much.

OMG OMG. IF BALTHAZAR IS A ONE-OFF I WILL CRY. I don't care that we've got practically nothing about him yet, he IS GOING TO BE FABULOUS, and if he doesn't show up throughout the season, I will be SO MAD.


MAYBE BALTHAZAR IS SORT OF LIKE THE AZIRAPHALE OF SPN! Maybe he and Crowley have been chilling together working both sides of the Apocalypse! And and, Cas will disapprove a lot, but he can't really say much because after all he rebelled.

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-08-08 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
LOLOL OMG OUR HOPES ARE SO HIGH AND MOUNTAINOUS
HOW WILL BALTHAZAR EVER LIVE UP TO THEM XDDDDD

omg I would love their subtle disapproval of each other and then they rib each other about it and get all snippy but then something explodes and Balthazar rescues Cas from it <3333

CASTIEL AND BALTHAZAR AGAINST THE WOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRLD

The only way I will accept another Casplosion this season is if he can come back from it into the loving arms of BFF Balthazar.

I NEED THIS NOW. Another 2 months of this wishing and hoping might drive me crazy.

She does! Even though I'm not sure I do. But I'd really like Gwen to be able to help untangle Arthur's emotions because when he turns King I'm not certain he'll take the time to do it instead of pushing it all in a corner and coffer.

(And I hope the boys will be game to make this the awesome OT3 it should be. OT4/OT5 if we can help it. My happy endings, I want them all.)

In Gwen's memory, the events of the day always played out achronologically: the moment of her standing, newly Queen, and the moment of her kneeling as if to beg her husband for a bit of jewelled gold, both occupying the same space in time, so that she felt she had lived two separate experiences simultaneously, cold in endless silk.

*sneaks back*

I'm afraid I've been having a hard time finding much of myself left for internetly things. And I've had at least three fics sitting waiting to be revised for posting for some ridiculous amount of time. *fails*

The Coronation of Queen Gwen really does want to be written. All dark ambivalence and tiny sandwiches, the band she'd booked breaks up about ninety minutes before the ceremony, the King of Northumbria refuses to recognise her, and Morgause puts a curse on all the tiny vodka jellies. Gwen knows her father would be very proud of her, this day, but it's a bitter thought, all things considered. She substitutes fresh fruit for the jellies.

Ah, yes, tackling the RL beast. Kick it hard, conquer it well! <3

Ahaha, is this Sir William's band? You know the lute player only joined it so he could get with groupies. They spend most of rehearsal arguing about what they should be called instad of picking up their instruments. The vodka jellies begin to attack the wedding cake, because of course it would. Merlin discovers that even more effective than magicking the jellies normal, is to eat them. This leads to more complications.

A soul can be bent, broken, twisted and warped and tempted beyond all recognition, but it cannot be destroyed; Anna knows this, deep in her heart where she knows the Alleluia and the light of Grace, and so when Ruby dies by her own knife it does not take her long to track down the Reaper: "Tessa," she says, "I call you by your human name as you call me by mine, and I ask you for your help in finding another, who was human once and will answer to that name still: I ask you for the path that goes Beyond."

THEN ANNA PULLS A CASTIEL AND GETS RUBY BACK.

Re: my reaction to the last couple episodes of S4

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-08-08 10:25 am (UTC)(link)
YES. YES. OH YES. OH WYRM IT MADE ME BOTH HAPPYFACE AND SADFACE TO SEE YOUR ANNA/RUBY DREAMS BECAUSE I KNEW WHAT WAS COMING. Happyface because yay Anna/Ruby! Sadface because aww S4 finale :(. This is what AUs are for, I guess XD. What happens to demons when they die? They don't just go to hell again, no? Do they just... disappear from existence? Is Ruby in some place you can only get to by wormhole?

Ruby's 'reveal' in the S4 finale made me go, "...wut," because I mean!!! I don't feel like the writers have been building to it at all! They pulled this out of nowhere! They pulled this out of their ass because apparently the fanbase hates Ruby? Or something?! Didn't you feel like the natural conclusion of this would be for Ruby to be GOOD and for Dean to realize that he should maybe stop being a judgmental asshole?

On the other hand. I guess I like that Ruby won? :-/ But I feel like this is another trick! Like how were saying Bela's trauma was pastede on yey. Ruby's victory too. Like, "okay we're gonna get rid of these chicks now, but here's a reason why they're also cool". Too little too late, show!

Sometimes I read futurefic written in S4 and it's about Sam/Ruby + Dean/Cas HEAs and it puts such sad hearts in my eyes, Wyrm, oh I wish it could be that way. Ruuuuuubyyyyyyyyyy.

They must still exist, because ghosts seem to go On after they get de-ghosted, so...presumably also demons! I mean, if it is impossible to completely kill of a human LIKE I BELIEVE IT IS POSSIBLE TO DO IT TO AN ANGEL OR A DEMON.

Ruby is in the other world! Beyond! You get to it through a gate of ivory or one of horn! Getting down there is easy, it is coming back out that's the difficult part!

Ruby's reveal made me go OMFG YOU ARE SO SHITTING ME. They have built to it NOT AT ALL. Ruby never lied, she never gave us any reason for her to be all pro-Lucifer and pro-apocalypse, her demon blood drug thing was creepy but didn't seem to be doing any harm until SUDDENLY Sam goes all ridiculous and she goes all evil and then MONOLOGUES OVER IT ALL WTF.

AND I thought it dropped the whole "sometimes the monsters are not monsters" plot LIKE A ROCK. It would be like if in HP7 Rowling was like "Psych! Harry was right all along in his belief that Snape was evil!" Um, Dean, MAYBE YOU SHOULD STOP BEING SUCH A BRAT. (I have been told this will get pulled up again with Crowley, with different results? OH GREAT, ANOTHER WHITE GUY, I AM GLAD WE HAVE A WHITE GUY ON THE SIDE OF GOOD.)

My theory, though, is that this was not pro-apocalypse at all. Ruby has her own agenda! She wants to be queen of hell! Who is above her?! Lilith and Lucifer. But she couldn't take out Lucifer while he was locked up, so she kills Lilith and lets him out and quickly monologues her evil: "I am THE EVILEST, my lord! You should totally trust me! I am the Bellatrix to your Voldemort! No one knew I was totally loyal except Lilith, who is conveniently dead so you can't check, so there is no reason to listen to lies about my actually being the Snape to your Voldemort! SO EVIL. SO, SO EVIL."

But that is probably not canon :(, and I totally agree that this is just like Bela. "Here, we killed these ladies so our leads could go have their stories, but have like five seconds of backstory. Oh, and they're both only doing what they do 'cause of a man. What, you don't think that's totally feminist?!" And, okay, she won, but that makes how many ladies in this show who win by...dying for the guys in their lives? Mary, Ellen, Jo, Lilith, Ruby...

:(((( I WANT RUBY TO HAVE A HAPPILY EVER AFTER. I WANT HER TO BE THE CROWLEY TO ANNA'S AZIRAPHALE.

OMG ANNA/RUBY ORPHEUS FUSION!!!!!!!! :DDDDDDDDDDDD

And Anna, after she breaks out of angel prison (lol, thanks Cas D:), goes to get Ruby back because the guys have made such a muck-up of the apocalypse. And the place where Ruby is, where Anna goes, there are ghosts of demons past! Alastair is there! Azazel is there! Lilith! Also she runs into Tessa because Tessa <33.

Yeah this in-show encouragement to support xenophobic instincts is very :-/.

I WANT HER TO BE THE CROWLEY TO ANNA'S AZIRAPHALE.

I can't wait to finish so I can write this stuff.

Yeah! Because, like, now it just seems like ALL NONHUMANS ARE EVIL, and also a lot of humans. Well, Cas is nice, and some random ghosts, and that one vampire. Everyone else, though, Dean is justified in hating.

YES

omg her humanity coating her bones again? This is what she was before she was a demon? Complete restoration! But... would that still be Anna's Ruby though? It's the demon that Anna took to. Because if Anna was bringing back Ruby's soul from the underworld... does a demon have a soul? Or is Anna given Ruby's human soul, and then Anna burns it herself to make it the Ruby she knew?

Everyone else, though, Dean is justified in hating.
Pretty much. :-/

omfg. Yessss. But then Anna is like I kind of liked you better before :(. Or maybe you can't ever heal a soul by angel/reaper magic, even if you try really hard, and she gets a body back but that doesn't mean she's really human, not anymore.

Or is Anna given Ruby's human soul, and then Anna burns it herself to make it the Ruby she knew?
OMFG ANNNNA. Heartbreak!

D: Where are my shades of grey, show?!
