*sadface*

I sometimes wonder what show people are watching.

Clearly, it's not the same one I am.

If you need me, I will be over here in my happy bubble that is free of ship wars, character-bashing, and show-bashing in general.

I've been a huge fan of your fic for a while, so can I just say, I love that this is a place where people have rational conversation. I want to hold onto this post (and everyone in it) and never let go. I'm pretty much in tears of frustration at this point with fandom. The only reason I've been bothered by episodes this season is because I knew how people were going to react and all I could think was "OH BOY, HERE WE GO AGAIN."

I have a similar dynamic with my sibling (who might as well be Dean in another life) same age gap and everything, so I think I can understand Sam's perspective a little bit more in some cases. What I don't get is having them at odds with each other so much, and it breaks my heart to see it.

I can't stand the fact that some people only look at it from one perspective. Dean has been a jerk, said the wrong thing, been spiteful and trusted the word of others before his own brother. He has made mistakes too. He's so human and I love him for it.

I think they chose such a poignant way to end the episode, to show that both of them are in such a bad place right now. They've had so much crap thrown at them and they're both so broken. I kind of just want to play Coldplay's "Fix You" and hug the crap out of them right now. OH BOYS~ ;_______;

So yeah, everyone here is awesome and I'm going to keep hiding in this corner of fandom if you don't mind...
