OKAY THIS IS MY REACTION.
SQUEESPLOSION.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
That was everything I could have asked for and more.
Things I loved:
ZACHARIAH
BOBBY
CAS
ADAM
SAM
DEAN
(They are in that order for a reason.)
Okay, most importantly, I WAS RIGHT. They have to trust each other now. And they've finally taken some steps toward doing that. I could not BE more happy.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I was so tense for almost the whole thing because will he won't he will he won't he I honestly didn't knoooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. I wanted to yell at Dean all the time but I was too busy pressing my hand over my mouth. I did have a problem because instead of watching it by myself from a download, as I usually do, I was up in the family room with people around so I couldn't swear or anything. My mom had to unlock the child-safety code from the TV before I could watch, and then she sat and watched pretty much the whole thing with me, utterly fascinated. This is the first episode of Supernatural she's ever seen, I think, except for bits and pieces she might have glimpsed while I'm in the middle of something. I had to explain a lot of things to her but she seemed really absorbed. Part me feels very vindicated about this, because my mom is not really a fantasy/scifi person, so it's cool that she got that into it. Which just emphasizes, again, that this show is about FAMILY first and foremost, and that's what draws people in. It was a pretty good episode to see for your first one, though confusingly deep into the SPN mythology, and I had to keep explaining over and over again that the angels are the bad guys in this show, and also saying yes is bad. (This goes against like everything else we've ever believed, so I don't blame her for being confused.) So yeah, she didn't really get why I was grinning so huge at the end of the show and why I stood up and pumped my fist and said Yesssssssssssssss, but she seems intrigued.
I'm of two minds whether or not to try to get her and my dad to watch the rest of the show, because on the one hand, awesome show and I think they'd love it, and on the other hand, canon mentions of Wincest and fandom that would get really, really, really awkward if they ever wanted to ask about it, which they probably would, knowing that I write fanfic and spend a lot of time on Livejournal. Ummmmm, no. I don't want to have that conversation with my extremely conservative parents, not ever. Thank you. They already think I'm addicted to the internet and want to cut off my access, so I don't want any more fuel on that fire.
BUT!
How awesome was BAMF!Cas, huh? How awesome was he? SO AWESOME. And oh, man, when Dean banished him and he screamed like that, I had to think, man, that must have hurt in more ways than one. So I didn't blame him for being angry and hurt and betrayed and taking it out the only way he could, though I'm sure plenty of fans will blame him plenty enough. Poor angel. And dude, he banished himself with four other angels. I don't think that's going to go well for him. ::worries::
Adam was such an arrogant little prick, omg! Zachariah must have been talking him up a LOT. He seemed like mostly a sweetie the last time we saw him, but that was also the ghoul trying to ingratiate himself with Sam and Dean, probably. But, you could totally respect his stance on only caring about his mother, and I could see that Sam and Dean totally got that, too. ::sigh:: Oh, poor kid. So betrayed and lied to. I wish he could have trusted Sam and Dean a little quicker, a little more fully. I hope we see him again and I hope he doesn't die again, though I'm conflicted on what role I think he should have after the Apocalypse. I still want him to finish his medical degree and be SamnDean's secret doc-in-the-hole they go to for help when they can't trust anyone else.
Poor Bobby when Dean said that to him, man. But he stuck it out and he made his point and was typically Bobby-made-of-awesome-sauce. I'm glad Death didn't manage to take him off Sam and Dean's side with that zombie trick, though he still seems worn down and vulnerable, which is probably a hard thing for Sam and Dean to see, too.
BUT. OMG SAM AND DEAN.
I love it I love it I love it. I love Sam being the hero and holding on with whitened nails when all seems lost. I felt so bad for him, in a "house full of flight risks," aw, trying to hold it together by pure strength of will and desperation. Him wooing Dean, yes, that's what we needed to see, and his final desperate gambit, of trusting Dean to make the right call, oh wow. Oh. Wow. That was what they needed, that was exactly what they needed.
And yes, I know, Castiel said he didn't trust Dean the way Sam did. But HE WENT IN THERE ANYWAY. So yeah, still not understanding the haters. That's okay. They probably don't understand me either.
I LOVE THEM ALL SO MUCH YOU GUYS EEEEEEEEEEEEEE I CAN'T EVEN.
And Zach, oh Zach, you were a great villain and a monumental creep and I look forward to seeing your creepy-ass character in fanfic for years to come, but it was time for you to die. And OMG, great way to do it, Dean grabbing hold of his DESTINY again and saying, "Screw that. And screw you. And screw the shiny light you came in on." I will miss Kurt Fuller a great deal though, ngl. I think I sort of adore him now.
AND THE END. OMG. Dean and Sam reaffirming their faith in each other against all comers, and worrying about Adam and Cas but determined to get them back and just. Yes. That's all I wanted. That's all I wanted. That's all the world needs. Sam and Dean, together against the odds and the world and everything ever. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
