Dean saying he loves his necklace makes me heartclench. As does Jensen's profile.

WTF? Someone got the drop on Sam and Dean? haha, of course Dean knows them. okay, I'm not laughing anymore. DEAN NEEDS TO NOT HAVE TO WATCH HIS BROTHER DIE ANYMORE.

Jesus. That shot into the title card was AWESOME, though.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAH FUCK COLIN AND JENSEN. THIS IS POTENTIALLY ... WELL. JESUS. BRB CRYING NOW.

okay EVERYONE EVER is in this episode.

IF I'M IN HEAVEN, THEN WHERE'S SAM? That's what I'm talking about.

Dean is skeptical that Sam thinks he's gonna convince anyone that he doesn't dream about Dean every night.

Bucket of extra crispy and Dad passed out on the couch. Kripke's reading fanfic again, or we're really good at reading subtext.

Thanks Carol-Anne :D :D

My brother used to have one of those, too. I can still smell the burning of the transformers. DEAN WUVS HUGZ :D

Oh, god, poor Sammy, so jealous of Dean's memory! Hurting so much! And omg John moved out for a few days? And Dean comforting her even though he's only four. PIE. WHY DOES THIS SHOW WANT TO KILL ME?

"I just never realized how long you've been cleaning up Dad's messes."

Sam ran away on Dean's watch and had a dog and Funions and Mr Pibb. John was not happy. oh fuck. Stanford.

SAMUEL, YOU ARE MAKING YOUR BROTHER CRY.

DEAN, HAS IT EVER OCCURRED TO YOU THAT THESE ARE THINGS THAT USED TO MAKE YOUR BROTHER HAPPY?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!

Okay. Maybe I'm being a wincester here (as if I can ever not be) but it seems to me that your best memories can be of remembering being super happy, even if they are things that wouldn't make you happy NOW. And what we are seeing is that Dean has not fundamentally changed since he was tiny, while Sam has become a different person due to events in his life. He doesn't see family the way Dean does. But that doesn't mean in any way that he doesn't see Dean as his family NOW.

Roadhouse LOVE.

Heaven is a buttload of places crammed together like Disneyland without the antisemitism. And Sam and Dean are soulmates.

PAMELA. Hotass.

*dies and is ded*

okay, Jensen kissing Traci? HOT LIKE THE FIRE OF A THOUSAND SUNS.

AAAAAAAAAnd Mary as a YED. Shortcut through hell to get to heaven?

Sam Smith does a great Meg. I hope she's being Meg.

Kurt Fuller is AWESOME.

and it's a little alarming to me that Jensen even looks gorgeous bathed in green light.

I like Joshua. But I honestly don't feel like I have an opinion on the whole conversation about god. Maybe because I don't have an opinion IRL.

I doubt your commitment to Skittlemotion. that ad is fucking creepy as.

Oh, Cas! BB! You look so heartbroken.

Dean's necklace has returned!

WHAT WHAT WHAT???????????? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kripke loves to give us just what we want, but TWIST it. He's the bloody Sta-Puft marshmallow man :(

How heartbreaking and awesome was that!!!!!!!!!

God writes Wincest therefore there will be a happy ending. THERE MUST BE.

 
posted by [identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com at 06:14am on 02/04/2010
There must be.

Kripke is the Sta-Puft marshmallow man, though. We want Wincest, he gives us Mary/Dad and Becky. We want the Necklace, Dean THROWS IT AWAY.

BUT.

SPN is the epic love story of Sam and Dean, our friendly neighborhood ghost-hunting SOULMATES.

C'mon - Show has given us Sam and Dean as soulmates! I fully expected Sam to melt down the amulet and have it made into commitment rings!
 
posted by [identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com at 06:20am on 02/04/2010
why that should give me a plot bunny where Sam melts down the amulet and has it mixed with tattoo ink and tricks Dean into getting an amulet tattoo, I do not know, but it did. someone should write that.

Sam Smith does a great Meg. I hope she's being Meg.

I didn't even think of that. I was thinking that Heaven corrupts with pleasure just as much as Hell corrupts with pain. Cuz Pamela is trying to convince Dean that lots of people dying and coming to Heaven isn't a bad thing, and Ash's little presto-zappo sends them to Zach instead of the Garden, so why NOT Mary going Mommy Dearest on Dean? And while we're at it, Ash can't find John---I'm wondering if there's a celestially significant reason for that, IE John=God. And he didn't know about Ellen and Jo? Someone's keeping him out of the loop OR they ended up elsewhere OR that wasn't really Heaven. IDK. Complicated. And heart-breaking.

I'm not at all sure now that is what was happening, but it sure seemed like it at the time.

complicated and heart-breaking is the best description of this episode, for sure.

That about sums it up. ;-)

I was especially impressed with the juxtaposition between Dean's memories and Sam's for the way they highlighted the fundamental difference in their upbringing, which is pretty simply formulated. Sam had Dean. Dean didn't. The way they conceive of life and the world is therefore different, and I think for as painful as that difference is, it's going to be what saves Dean because Sam, after all, still has faith, still wants to fight the good fight, whereas Dean is losing his forward momentum rapidly.

Anyway, yes, yes, and YES!

*hugs*

I hope, so much, that what you say is how it will go. Though if it doesn't, I am sure hte writers will come up with something that is otherwise amazing.

Sweet zombie jebus, that fireworks scene. I can't even begin to process the rest of the ep yet, because that fireworks scene broke me.

Kripke's a sadist. ;D

I heard a collective fan groan when Dean dropped the amulet, I swear I heard it...maybe it was just the wind, but I'm pretty sure. HMMM yes, why IS Ash out of the loop? He said he knew everytime about Sam & Dean but didn't know Ellen & Jo? Must ponder.
 
posted by [identity profile] linnet-melody.livejournal.com at 08:10pm on 02/04/2010
That got my senses tingling too. And Pamela, who's made a point to hit on *Sam* while she's alive, practically ignore him in heaven and goes after Dean? While telling him giving up is okay?

Something stinks. And the odor was only magnified when Mary started acting strange.
 
posted by [identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com at 03:44am on 03/04/2010
I figured he wouldn't know about Ellen and Jo because they don't matter to the angels, so the angels wouldn't be talking about them, and they are ash's information source.

I was shouting NOOOO too loud to hear the collective fandom groan, but I'm sure it was there :)

Pretty much everything you said, YES, GAAAHHHH!! ~O_O~

Right from the start, I had to clamp my mouth shut to keep from weeping openly right next my hubby. :( Gods, the scene with the fireworks! And Dean hugging his mom and telling her that Dad still loved her! >_< *cries*

This ep broke me so hard, I went and wrote a coda, b/c GODDAMMIT, Sam has to rescue the amulet! O_O *wibble*

Oh, and hubby said he had that exact same car/track set as a kid. So weird. :p

*hugs you, and all of fandom* *smishes Sam and Dean together b/c THEY ARE SOULMATES*
 
posted by [identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com at 03:46am on 03/04/2010
Sam totally has to have picked up the amulet. he HAS TO HAVE.

Those car sets were totally popular in the late 70s/early 80s :D

*smishes so much*

My brother used to have one of those, too. I can still smell the burning of the transformers.

LOL, I used to have one, and yes, they smelled. LMAO.

Everything else is too painful to think about. Ugh, this SHOW. I still can't, just, oh, my god.

okay, Jensen kissing Traci? HOT LIKE THE FIRE OF A THOUSAND SUNS.

But am I the only one who was complaining that it should have been SAM? I mean, she was hitting on him HARDCORE when she was alive. That and the way she was acting about Heaven and telling Dean it's OKIE DOKIE to let the world die and go there is very suspicious to me. If she'd made out with Sam, I think I'd be less doubtypants.

I doubt your commitment to Skittlemotion. that ad is fucking creepy as.

D: NOW I WANNA WATCH DONNIE DARKO. LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE.

WHAT WHAT WHAT???????????? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Pretty fucking much, pretty. This is RIDICULOUSLY UPSETTING. It's just a SHOW, ok? I mean, I was ADDICTED TO BUFFY LIKE WOAH and didn't get so upset, even when she died, even when...no, when she killed Angel, I was in some serious mourning IRL LMAO, but...still. THIS IS TOO MUCH FOR TV ADDICTS TO HANDLE, OK.
 
posted by [identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com at 03:50am on 03/04/2010
Oh, I am TOTALLY doubtypants. and I think we're supposed to be. Allll angel trickery, I'm sure. Still, HOT. :D

I wanna watch Donnie Darko now, too. Where the hell is my Donnie Darko DVD? I was sure I had that movie.

It's funny. I think I still never recovered from season three. I love the show for lots of reasons, but it's also separate from my love of Sam and Dean. And I am SO thankful. Because it means that I can love the show even when it hurts.

*loves you so much*

This episode broke my heart so many times....the only thing that can repair it is a good wincest fic(*is off to find one*). Sam is once again on my black list! I can't explain how much I enjoyed Dean's memory with Mary...it warmed my heart so much, although it was kinda sad...And I'm glad that John and Mary's wasn't really the most perfect marriage, not because I don't like John, well, that too, but it makes them more real, y'know?

The end....aw the end....it left me so heart-broken...I mean, I just....gosh! There're no words for how broken Dean seemed. It's natural I think...one of his happiest memories was about Sam and Sam's own happiest memories were the ones Dean considers as personal Hell....Stupid Samuel! Go hug your brother, NOW!

The soulmate thing was epic though (as if we didn't know...) This show will be the end of me!

did you see [livejournal.com profile] longsufferingly's coda today? that made me happy :D

This show kills me! in the best ways.

Thanks for recommending that coda! It made me happy, too :D
 
posted by [identity profile] mistyzeo.livejournal.com at 03:38am on 03/04/2010
My general reaction was much the same. A lot of shouting, and a lot of NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO at the end. *flails*

Yes, yes, all of this! I need to watch this episode again. I'm still not entirely sure it actually happened and wasn't a mass hallucination that we all had.
 
posted by [identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com at 09:09pm on 03/04/2010
hahahaha, I would actually totally buy this was a mass hallucination that everyone interpreted totally differently :D

Every time I think they can't find new ways to break Sam and Dean and us, they do. OH, BOYS!

Breaking seems to be their specialty. OH BOYS. OH SHOW.

EEEEE. What an amazing episode. I'm having a catch up day but I'm not sure I can take any more heartbreak! Oh boys. Oh DEAN.
