2x11 - Playthings

So, this episode took forever to download and everyone in the universe has already said everything there could ever be to say about it, but my head is going to explode if I don't get all the mindless squeeage thoughts out.
I was going to do this whole meta thing about parallels in this episode, but I sort of can't be bothered and I'm sure there are other people out there who have already said it and have said it in a much cleverer way. If not, I will do it later, because I figure I need to watch the episode at least 17 more times before I can be coherant.
Speaking of incoherance...
I love how Sam just assumes that Ava was taken by a demon, like he never even entertains the idea that she was possessed or evil or anything. Of course, this no doubt means she is possessed or evil or something, but I love Sam being all optimistic anyway. Well, if you can call it optimism.
Since when are they taking jobs off Ellen like she is Charlie and Sam and Dean are her Angels? Not that Sam and Dean wouldn't make awesome Angels, because they totally would.

Sam looks adorable in that colour. I love it when he doesn't wear 783 layers.
Antiquing, ROFL. Big Gay Antiquers.

I think Dean secretly loves antiquing. That was the real Big Secret. JW was all like 'by the way, Dean, Connecticut does awesome antiques, you should totally take Sam up there sometime. You know, before you have to kill him.'

The lady thinks they're gay! Sam is all OMG, I thought we were hiding it so well! Look at his face, that is so much what he's thinking!
The look Dean gives Sam when Sam says about Dean being butch and over-compensating and Dean says 'right', what the hell is that look supposed to mean? It's like this weird fake smile at Sam, but then he looks away and it's a little bit sad as well and I'm sure is supposed to mean something but I can't figure out what, unless it actually is 'OMG, I love my brother in a way that is only really acceptable in our vast and colourful fandom and apparently I'm not hiding it all that well'.

Weird fake!smile.

Sad look away. What's going on in your pretty little head, Dean Winchester???

Dean falling onto the squishy bed amuses me more than is reasonable. And is Sherwen actually a funny name, or is it just when Dean says it?

OMG, the doll scene, that will never not be funny. I know everyone has said it, but seriously. Why does everyone think we're gay, indeed. Is Dean wearing the same top here that Sam was at the start? It's the same colour at any rate and also looks darn fine on Dean. Why is the thought of them sharing clothes so hot?
And why the hell are they so cagey about what's wrong with the Grandmother? It doesn't make heaps of sense.
What's the difference between Hoodoo and Voodoo?

Porn, ROFL. Dean likes to think about Sam whacking off too much.
OMGZ, that creepy little girl is playing with PLASTIC!WINCHESTERS! You know it's true, look!

Even little girls who see dead people are all about the Wincest. I just bet she's putting them in sex poses, I just bet she is.
Drunk!Sammy owns my soul.

I know pretty much everyone else thinks it's all weird but OMG. I love it. Bossy and short! And Sam is so amused with himself for saying it. I LOVE YOU SAM WINCHESTER, HAVE MY BABIES!!!! OMG AND HE CALLS DEAN 'STUPID' AS WELL, I didn't notice that before. SAM, YOU EMO BALL OF WONDER, I LOVE YOU!

Oh, but don't be sad, Sam, keep on being funny! Though, you probably should've saved Ava, sending her back to her house was a bit stupid.

OMG DEAN CALLED HIM SASQUATCH! That is just... OMG, Kripke, ur in our fandom, reading our LJs, aren't you.

OMG, Dean, you have to watch out for Sammy, I mean watch out for Sammy, because he's seriously about to try to snog your face off and if you let him MY BRAIN WILL ACTUALLY EXPLODE.
OMG, I love that Dean is angry with Dad for putting him in that position, and I love that Sam thinks it's totally the right thing to do. OMG BROTHER BRAIN SWAP I LOVE IT!

Sam, make him promise all you like, but he's never going to do it. Dean will quite gladly rule at your side when you are King of All That is Evil But Still Terribly Hot and your eyes are all red-glowy and you have devil horns and possibly also hooves, because HE LOVES YOU and he is only promising to shut up your drunken arse.

Look how much Dean loves you, Sam! There is no way he's ever going to kill you.

OMG KISSING SCENE! OMG, Sam! With the kissing and the touching and the OMG STRIP OF BELLY!
Why do these people assume we're gay? Dean, THIS IS WHY!! Because you ARE!!!

Every week I think OMG, this show is as slashy it could possibly get without the two of them actually throwing down and getting nekkid and writhing around together in the mud, and every week they MAKE IT MORE SLASHY, HOW DO THEY DO THAT? MY BRAIN HAS EXPLODED AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT, SAM WINCHESTER!
I think Dean's brain has exploded too. Maybe that's Sam's evil power, he's going to be all exploding people's brains with his hotness and brother-touching.

Dean is clearly thinking, 'omg, Sam just tried to kiss me and it was maybe the hottest thing ever.'
See, I think this is why I haven't noticed anything amiss with Jared's acting, because I'm too busy with my exploded brain and being all like OMG, Kripke is skipping right over the hugging and is going straight for the hardcore sex!

Sam, oh Sam. You're still beautiful even when you're hungover and vomiting in the toilet. I love you times a million!

Dean loves you too, even if you don't remember anything about all the hot manloving he gave you when he got back to the room last night, because we all know that's what he really means.

The poor old lady is freaked out by your massive face, Sam! Give her a break. And let Dean poke her with a stick, come on! You totally owe him for trying to make him kill you! Oh Dean, I love you.

When Sam gets freaked out or extra-angsty or figures something out, he gets the Nostril Flare of Doom! You can always tell how serious a situation is by the size of Sam's nostril's. Seriously.

LOL, Dean cannot understand why he can't break the door down with only two kicks. The door is impervious to your manly charms, Dean Winchester. Strange but true.

Okay, let's all just take a moment to think about wet!Sam.

*a moment*

*another moment*

kroki_refur posted this cap in her episode review post (which is an awesome post, by the way), and I was honestly transfixed for about an hour, just staring at that little droplet of water just above Sam's top lip.
*stares*
Sam should always be wet.

Why go to all the trouble of saving the girl if you're just going to let her lie there and die? Somebody help her out, omg. I seriously thought she was dead for a moment.

Oh Sam needs hugs! He's such a loveable sasquatch! Good lady for hugging Sam! But Dean needs hugs too!! Here's an idea, why don't you boys hug each other?

SAM, DEAN IS NEVER GOING TO KILL YOU, OMG! Get a clue, boy. You can flare those nostrils all you like, it doesn't change the facts.

Just look at Dean's Pouty Bottom Lip of Angst, it's right there saying 'I am never going to kill you Sam, so suck on it'. And I really think you should.

I fully intended to post this nifty welcome post to all my spiffing new friends I made through the Supernatural Friending Meme, but clearly I haven't yet. I will do it at some stage soon when I'm not distracted by pretty new episodes and people's picspams of Jared and Jensen in matching suits. Until then, HELLO, NEW FRIENDS!!! <3
I totally needed to get a heap of writing done today, but obviously my brain was eaten by Supernatural and I've done nothing.
sandy_phoenix,
madeye1200 and
petrus_exiguus, I'll hopefully have something to send you for Tuesday by tomorrow, but it's only going to be rewrites.

Date: 2007-01-20 06:02 pm (UTC)I think Dean's sad face is because he's realizing that over the years there have probably been some really hot girls who thought he was gay, and if they didn't think he was gay he probably could have fucked them. He's thinking about all the hot sex he missed out on because chicks thought he was gay.
Poor Dean.
*pets*

Date: 2007-01-21 12:03 am (UTC)Since when are they taking jobs off Ellen like she is Charlie and Sam and Dean are her Angels?
HAHA! Ok, I just asked more or less the same thing on my review. It confused me because Dean tells Sam to 'let Ellen know they're taking it'. I mean, WTF?
The look Dean gives Sam when Sam says about Dean being butch and over-compensating and Dean says 'right', what the hell is that look supposed to mean?
More yes! That made me a bit nervous, mainly because I couldn't connect that look with anything that was being said. It was all a joke and Dean looks like there's something else, like Sam's words mean more than that. Argh. Are we overthinking this?
On a more shallow note: my brain exploded at the sasquatch thing! God. You just know that's true, they're reading our journals and stealing ideas! :D This episode was written to make the fangirls happy, it has to be. *flails*
no subject
Date: 2007-01-21 04:39 am (UTC)The look was freaky, seriously. I don't think we're overthinking this, I mean normally he plays that kind of thing like it's a big joke but then he does the sad look-away because Sam says he's butch? It definitely seems like he's taking more from Sam's words or possibly the whole situation. It's kind of bugging me because while I want it to mean 'oh noes, I think I love my brother in a way that's not brotherly' it can't be that really. Can it?
I love that they love the fangirls so much. I love them for loving us.
no subject
Date: 2007-01-21 05:22 am (UTC)Can it?
I will answer with a big YES. And then cry because I don't know if they love us so much that they'll give us The Wincest. :( But yeah, it's odd, I want to watch it again and try to come up with some crack theory for this now.
That makes this fandom even better. It's all a big love fest. ♥
no subject
Date: 2007-01-21 05:35 am (UTC)I think they give us as much Wincest as they possibly can though. But that look is going to bug me. If you do come up with a theory, let me know because I've got nothing. Well, nothing that isn't Wincesty.
This fandom is seriously the biggest lovefest I've ever seen! Other fandoms are all bitchy and elitist, but this fandom is just rainbows and sparkles!! I love it!
no subject
Date: 2007-01-21 02:53 am (UTC)Don't fret about sending us rewrites. From what you've been saying, they sound like BIG rewrites so it will give us plenty to
pull to piecestalk about.*loves*
no subject
Date: 2007-01-21 04:33 am (UTC)I need to type up the frigging rewrites before you can do anything at all with them, and I am LAZY and SO BLOODY SICK OF THIS CHAPTER OMG.
[You should start watching Heroes. Christopher Eccleston is going to be on it as of this week and he looks damn fine.]
no subject
Date: 2007-01-21 07:50 am (UTC)Omg, I TOTALLY love it when he wears layer. You know why? I had this blindingly hot idea when that photoshoot of Jensen in Men's Fitness came out (you know the one, right? In my icon. :D) and there's a picture where you can see about 5 layers of shirts/jackets on him and I was thinking to myself, "I bet Jared is watching him taking these photos right now, thinking how hot Jensen looks and just waiting for him to take a break to they can make sexy-time in Jensen's trailer. And they'll be all, you know, rushing and all over each other because they don't have much time and Jared's been watching him be sexy and he wants him NOW but Jensen's got a gazillion layers on, so every time Jared pulls one off and has a gazillion-minus-one left, he's like, even more turned on. Because it's anticipation. And it's hot." And that was really very long.
Basically, I think this is the bestest review of the episode I've read. Yeah. More people should use pictures. :D
no subject
Date: 2007-01-21 03:28 pm (UTC)It would be like, he'd take off one layer and as he lifted up his arms to pull his shirt over his head, Jared would just see this flash of skin and he would need more skin like NOW but there would be layers and more little flashes of skin and... yeah. Layers for the win!
I am glad you like my review :D
