BIG EXPLOSIONS! WIREWORK! FIGHT CHOREOGRAPHY!

I have a specific question regarding the 6x10 promo pics.

This is a screencap from the opening credits of WHAT KIND OF SHOW?



Is it a show about SPIES? Is Meg a secret agent and Cas is her handler? Sam is the guy who doesn't say much and is terrifying and everyone calls "the cleaner"?

Is it a show about SECRET ALIENS? Are they all aliens trying to blend in in the human world? Or is it just Meg who's the alien, and Sam is her love interest, and Dean is his brother reluctantly dragged into this whole shitshow OH GOD EVERYONE IS IDIOTS, Dean thinks. Cas is Meg's Giles if she were Buffy. Cas was the one who found Meg in the first place. He's good at sciencing! And a little bit of a crackpot. MEG EATS ICE CREAM AND LEARNS ABOUT HUMANITY. THEY ALL RUN AWAY FROM THE GOVERNMENT. Cas puts her on a pedestal and so does Sam, but for different reasons. She gives touching monologues about what life was like back in her home planet.

Is it a show about CON ARTISTS?!? Like 'Leverage' but less sitcommy. TOGETHER THEY STEAL FROM THE RICH, but also run from nemeses and sabotage enemies. Perhaps they sell information too. WILL CAS HAVE TO DO ACCENTS AND WEAR SNAZZY SUITS? Yes. Often. Are they in a show about former spies determined to take down their evil and corrupt spy agency? PERHAPS THEY ARE. Sam and Meg will have to provide make-out distractions on more than one occasion. One time, Meg and Cas have to. ~TENSION ENSUES:



IT STARTED SHIP WARS THAT FOREVER DIVIDED THE FANDOM.



ARE THEY A NEW CSI TEAM?!? GODDDD THERE ARE SO MANY POSSIBILITIES. MAYBE THEY ARE COPS, MAYBE THEY ARE ROBOTS, MAYBE THEY ARE CYBORGS. Maybe only Dean and Meg are cyborgs, and Dean didn't know he was a cyborg. INSERT EXISTENTIAL CRISIS HERE. "I'M NOT A ROBOT," he weeps. Cas is a cyborg engineer. Together, they talk about humanity and ALSO POETRY WHY NOT. Cas expresses a love for Bashō, and Dean writes a haiku to prove he's not just some machine. Cas replies, "Of course you're not a machine. That's the point of cyborgs," which somehow doesn't help.

One night, Dean convinces Cas to go to a bar. You are fifty years old before your time, Cas, he says. Have a beer. Cas gets irritable and asks Dean what he's trying to prove. "Nothing," Dean lies.

MEANWHILE:

"Yo, I rewired my forearm last night, check it out," Meg says. She points her finger like a gun at the TV, and yells, "Pow!"

The TV turns on.

"Sweet," Sam says, and high-fives her.


SO MANY POSSIBILITIES SO MANYYYYYYY. Whatever it is, I WANT IT I WANT IT I WANT IT OMG.


YOUR SPECULATIONS?

*facepalm*

Context would totally help. First thing that came to mind was Torchwood, and I was all "CAS IS OWEN!"

Here's Torchwood.

Owen's the guy at the back with the leather. :D

I certainly approve of Cas getting into that outfit.

Or out of it, whichever.

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Somehow, Cas always wears little to no clothing in your books, it seems.

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:06 pm (UTC)(link)
What, when was the last time I made Cas strip in anything.

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Not in your literal books, but like, imagination. Or something. I am totally not making sense.

Let's just agree that he would look adorable in a barong.

OMG SPEAKING OF WHICH

EXCEPT NOT

I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO WITH THIS COLLISION OF WORLDS

AND THIS SUDDEN CRAVING FOR PEACH MANGO PIE

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG THE PEACH MANGO PIE THAT COMES IN THAT BOX THING AND IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE PIE AT ALL BUT THEY CALL IT PIE ANYWAYS?

IT'S MORE LIKE A FRUITY BURRITO, OR SOMETHING.

FFFUUU NOW I WANT SOME.

DAMN YOU! I SWEAR, OUR CONVOS ALWAYS GO CASTIEL -> REMINISCE -> FOOD FROM MOTHERLAND.

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)
CASTIEL -> REMINISCE -> FOOD FROM MOTHERLAND.

WELCOME TO MY PSYCHE, WHERE CAS HAS A PENCHANT FOR MACAPUNO CANDY AND GETTING PIECES OF MANGO STUCK BETWEEN HIS TEETH.

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:20 pm (UTC)(link)
NOTE TO SELF: TALKING TO LASSITER WHILE HUNGRY AND MISSING MOTHERLAND MAY CAUSE TEARY EYED NOSTALGIA

...OF LAUGHTER.

BECAUSE DEAR GOD CASTIEL STRUGGLING TO GET THOSE PIECES OFF HIS TEETH, OH DEAR LORD. HE'D SMITE THAT YUMMY GOODNESS, FOR SURE.

DEAN KEEPS GIGGLING LIKE SOME KID AT CAS'S GENUINE LOVE FOR SQUID BALLS IN BANANA KETCHUP

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I love me some squid balls. Oh Canada, why don't you have squid balls?! Or fish balls. Although fish balls don't really don't look like balls. They actually look like discs, if I remember correctly.

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 01:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Ya, they're not so spherical, but they're not disc-like, I don't think. PERHAPS YOU ARE THINKING OF SQUID RINGS?

*_____________________*

ONE TIME DEAN AND SAM HAVE A COMPETITION TO SEE WHO CAN EAT THE MOST FISH BALLS AND IT DOESN'T END WELL FOR ANYBODY

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)
FROM EXPERIENCE, I TOTALLY KNOW WHAT THEY'RE GOING THROUGH.

I CAN SEE DEAN AND SAM DOING THIS WHILE CASTIEL WATCHES IN AMUSEMENT, EATING TAHO AND SAGO WITH A LANYARD OF SAMPAGUITAS AROUND HIS NECK.

OH GOD THAT IS CUTE. EEE!

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
OH MY GOD CASTIEL WITH SAMPAGUITA GARLANDS?!? OH MY GOD DID DEAN BUY THEM FROM THE STREET KIDS BECAUSE HE CAN'T HELP HIMSELF?! Of course he makes Cas wear them. He made Sam wear them too, but Sam just put them on Cas also when Dean wasn't looking.

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:10 pm (UTC)(link)
DUDE! DUDE. YOU KNOW DEAN TOTALLY BOUGHT THEM FROM THE STREET KIDS. HE BOUGHT THE WHOLE LOT Of THEM AND PUT THEM ALL ON CAS, AND SO DID SAM. SO CASTIEL KINDA LOOKS SILLY AS HE WALKS AROUND WITH ALL OF THEM AROUND HIS NECK, EATING HIS TAHO. And the kids are totally not laughing at him.

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
OH CAS, WITH YOUR SKEWED SENSE OF HUMILITY.

OMG OMG OMG SINS CAN YOU IMAGINE SAM TRYING TO RIDE IN A TRICYCLE?? OMGGGGGGG COMEDY GOLD

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
OH GOD I ACTUALLY GIGGLED OUTLOUD.

THE POOR THING WOULD TILT! POOR TRICYCLE DRIVER WOULD BE LIKE "AY NAKU NAMAN!"

Totally wanted to squee my love for you and our convos on twitter, but you weren't gonna see it cause twitter told me you weren't following me after I tried to DM you a SPN feed sometime ago.

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
BASICALLY SAM ON ANY FORM OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT IS COMEDY GOLD.

I would see you under the @siterlas thing. I don't know if it picks up DM, but it picks up any @siterlas mentions of people I don't follow also.

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
TOTALLY. SAM DWARFS EVERYTHING.

OH MAN, JUST A THOUGHT. SAM DARING DEAN TO EAT BALUT?! Y/Y?

It won't, since I'm private.

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
THEY ALL EAT BALUT TOGETHER

THEY TOAST THE BALUT EGGS. CLINKING SHELLS. THEY'RE LIKE, "INUMAN NA!" The one Tagalog phrase that stuck with Dean through the haze of barcrawling.

Oh hmm. I was thinking of going private as well. A couple of RL friends found me and I'M NOT SURE HOW TO FEEL ABOUT THEM KNOWING MY EVERY THOUGHT ON SPN.

[identity profile] hereare-mysins.livejournal.com 2010-11-16 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG THEIR FACES. I CAN IMAGINE THEIR FACES.

DEAN NOT CARING BECAUSE HE HAD TOO MUCH FUNDADOR! SAM GOING OK WTF EW BUT STILL GOING FOR IT, AND CASTIEL JUST GOING AT IT LIKE A CHAMP, BECAUSE IT IS SUCH A SMALL MATTER, I MEAN, IT'S JUST DUCK FETUS, RIGHT?

THEN DEAN WAKING UP THE MORNING AFTER BESIDE CAS WONDERING WHAT HE ATE LAST NIGHT AND SAM TELLING HIM IT'S BETTER IF HE STAYED OBLIVIOUS.

That's why I went private. And I changed my twitter name. RL friends on my twitter = not a good idea.
