THERE ARE MANY REASONS TO GO OMG

SHOULD I BE IRRESPONSIBLE AND GO TO BOSTON ON MONDAY TO SEE M.I.A.? OMGGG. I have all this work to do, but maybe I can get a lot of it done and then go to BOSTON AND SEE M.I.A. and also my boyfran, who is finally back from his European adventures. I have no polling capabilities, so let's do this instead:

IS LASS GONNA BE RESPONSIBLE THIS COMING MONDAY??
a) BUT OF COURSE. She will be working, ever so diligent, ever so.
b) LOLOL she will be dancing all her limbs off at M.I.A. and making out with her boyfran.

Oh, and NOVAKFEST. You guys, Novak fanwork exchange! The word count minimum is only 500 words. You can request vids!

Also: Switch It Up: multifandom gender identity meme, in which the rule is that the characters and/or their partners must identify as transgender/genderqueer.

Nikita
- AUGH IDK WHY BUT WHEN NIKITA STARTED OPENING A CAN OF WHOOPASS ON THE SWEATSHOP GOONS AND BURNED THE BUILDING DOWN, I WAS SO PROUD THAT I LEGIT SHED AN ACTUALFAX TEAR.

- How is Amanda so incredibly splendid? I love everything about her and what she chooses to be. Can I be her when I grow up?

- A PEANUT ALLERGY INTRODUCED IN THE FIRST ACT \o/

- FORGIVENESS. omg, do you have any idea how a-flutter I am that Nikita is pursuing a character journey and emotional arc that threads FORGIVENESS and REDEMPTION in? I just haven't come across a lot of canon where girls have this story, okay. I am excited, touched, and feel strangely validated.

- Who was the person on Twitter saying Michael=Castiel? I can see it in many ways, but only if this is S4, but this is obviously S6!Cas trying to take down Heaven. It's even in SPN's old time-slot! Alternatively, this is genderbent (half-)racebent Cassassin AU.



Poopernatural

- OMG BEN WANTS TO BE A HUNTER! Whose heart is more broken, Dean's or mine?!

- I kinda love that Sam and Dean kept referring to the baby as 'it' and 'that thing'. Perhaps I am just projecting, because in the wake of 6x02 spoilers, I found my feelings best encapsulated by this doodle of Kate Beaton's. What was even filming this episode like? There must've been so many babies on set!

- I also like Dean giving the baby booze. A+, Dean.

- A CAMPBELL DEATH SO SOON ALREADY? NOOOOOO. Oh god, Gwen, you're next to die aren't you DDDD: because you are a woman and apparently Christian has a wife or something DDDDD: NOOOOOOOO cousinceeeeessssssst. Ah well. I guess there's always backstory fic. BTW, the Campbells/Sam/Dean dynamics were amazing. WUNDERBAR.

- TWO SAMS!!! Fucking finally, I tell you. We've had two Deans what, like three times now? ABOUT DAMN TIME WE HAD TWO SAMS. NEEDS MOAR TWO SAMS.

- LISA BB. Okay, I was ambivalent about Dean/Lisa before but I actualfax ship it now. Do we have fic yet of Dean teaching her to shoot and then they make out? Between the last episode and this episode, I am totally invested in her now... but... okay, I'm just gonna copypaste what I said to [livejournal.com profile] mwmm23: "omg Lisa I love her, and now I'm also really curious about her because WHY IS SHE MAKING THESE DECISIONS. WHAT'S IN YOUR HEAD, LISA? idk. I love her but I still think she's making dumb decisions? WHICH ONLY MAKE ME LOVE HER MORE THOUGH? Because she says to Dean that he's white-knuckling it, but LISA BB SO ARE YOU. WE CAN TELL. She is weary. Oh, she and Dean are both so weary. But they're HOLDING ON TO EACH OTHER which strikes me as simultaneously DUMB and HEARTWARMING and D: and :D" and I think I see where she is coming from, but that is also why I am DDD: BUT ALSO WHY I AM :DDDDDDD augh idk idk. As with many things in Supernatural, I'm not really sure what my feelings are BUT I KNOW THAT THEY ARE VERY VERY STRONG.

- I have watched the promo for next week approximately as many times as you think I have.


Six more days, people. 143 hours as of right now.

OH NO. When did you see her? Where?

I think I aaaaalmoooost get it. The intrigue is part of the love? They're simultaneously vulnerable and strong with each other, it's really intriguing, but I also want to know how they got here. I want to know about all the parts where Lisa learned about Dean's past in bits and pieces, and Dean learning about Lisa being more than just the woman he put on a pedestal.

I WANNA SEE LISA SHOOT SHIT. I WANNA SEE HER SPATTERED IN THE LOSER'S BLOOD.

In conclusion, needs moar Braedens.

+ Brown spring weekend, 2008. But two of my closest friends have seen her more recently and thought the same. Not good live. HOWEVER. If you are really going as an excuse to hang out with the boyfriend? OBVS go anyway, who cares if she sucks live? I am only so picky because there are so many people I want to see live that I really need to think about where my concert $ is going. I seriously have most of October/November blocked out in terms of concerts. Good times. Want to see Crooked Still with me???

+ I GET IT SO MUCH. WHY MUST YOU DESTROY ALL MYSTERY, LASS? Dean doesn't know why Lisa is stronger than he is, he just knows that she is and that is why he loves her! Lisa, perhaps, is used to taking care of someone, and thus doesn't really see it as a fault.

P.S. I can totally see Lisa shooting shit. It is totally real in my mind, like it already happened. Perhaps this is why I am more excited for the corruption of Ben and Dean being all, SHIT I AM MY FATHER, and Lisa being all, DON'T BE A BITCH, DEAN.

Still, I would love a good scene of her killing something and the looks of surprise on Dean and Sam's faces.

Also, Braedens! Back when "The Kids Are Alright" aired, I was all into the idea that Lisa might have lied about Ben's parentage, and Dean might really be his father. But, these days, I like that he isn't Ben's biological dad. First of all, that idea is grounded in patriarchy, etc. Second of all, we all choose our families, and hunters more so than anyone else. Ben will be badass someday, mark my words!

(Lisa is badass already.)

+ I like that Lisa gave Dean a free pass to hunt (partly to let him be happy, party to get him the fuck out of there so she and Ben can wander the neighborhood without the Gestapo breathing down their necks...), but I hope it does not mean that Kripke is writing them out, or planning to include them only once a month. NEEDZ MOAR BRAEDENS, INDEED. Not just because these characters are awesome. TV shows do need a certain amount of forward motion/character development to sustain themselves. WE HAVE ALREADY SEEN SINGLE WINCHESTERS ANGSTING BY THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ABOUT THEIR SUPERNATURAL WOES. Dean as Family Man has infinite potential. USE IT, KRIPKE.

Boyfriend time with bonus dancing to M.I.A. doooeeees sound like a 'hell yes' kind of idea. FINISH YOUR WORK, LASS, OH GOD JUST FINISH IT. idk who this Crooked Still :( will Youtube when I'm not falling asleep at computer.

MOAR OF LISA SHOOTING SHIT. MOAR OF DEAN REALIZING HE IS BECOMING JOHN. I do still like the idea that Ben is Dean's son, for the envesselage drama that opens up. And yeah ikr, if Bobby can have a house and go hunting, why can't Dean too? With bonus ppl who can make him a hot meal when he gets there?

I HAD NOT EVEN THOUGHT OF THE ENVESSELAGE. AM NOW INTRIGUED.
