we do talk about how the spn finale could have been so iconic, powerful and transcended but they instead Did That. However, the thing is that SPN can still be all those things and maybe even more than before if they decide to go down the Chuck Won road once they make a new season/a movie. Imagine Dean figuring out that he is basically in a simulation, in Chuck's perfect world and the only way to break out of it is him believing that he is worthy of being alive. Imagine him rescuing Cas from the empty, a paralled to Cas rescuing him from hell all those years ago, just like what all of us wanted to see. It is all still very much a possibility. And that both scares me and makes me giddy with excitement
“Only Crowley and Aziraphale working together can hope to put it right. And they aren’t talking.”
Oh. Oh this is going to be fucking hilarious.
"Maggie, tell Crowley I am of course willing to accept his help even though this could have been much easier if he'd have just come with me in the first place."
"Erm, Mr Crowley --"
"Nina, please inform his most holier-than-thou that it was his plan that got us into this mess."
"Tell him yourself."
Fuck it. My hope for s3 is that Neil is satisfied with the finished product. I hope he tells the exact story he wants to tell and I hope he finishes it with a feeling of “this is what Terry and I had in mind all those years ago”.
It might be an unpopular view but I don't want Aziraphale and Crowley's relationship to have been part of the ineffable plan. I don't want their love for each other to have been just another chess piece on God's board, destined, since their creation to fall in love. They deserve better than that.
If anything, I want their love to be in spite of the plan. For, just like their sense of right and wrong, their emotional growth together to be hard fought and all their own. I love the idea that it flies in the face of what is expected from an angel and a demon.
I don't want them to love each other because they are supposed to. That would be so diminutive. I want Aziraphale to love Crowley because he's Crowley and Crowley to love Aziraphale because he's Aziraphale. Divine plans and prophecies be damned. Being part of the ineffable plan would erase the agency and beauty from it. Their love is theirs.
Vaggie: Adam and Alastor suck.
Lucifer: Would you be interested in being promoted to "Daughter-in-law"?

i think a lot of people don’t realise that cas pulling dean out of hell in lazarus rising wasn’t cas pulling dean off the rack, it was cas pulling dean AWAY FROM the rack, away from the people he was torturing
the first time cas touched dean he saw the pain dean was inflicting on other people, saw the way he enjoyed it, and it didn’t change how pure dean was to him, it didn’t make him any less good
The funniest thing about Supernatural gotta be that Cas was this clueless nerdy dude who couldn't flirt if his life depended on it. and yet he somehow ended up with two wives and a husband.
The best part of the percy jackson books is that from percy's perspective hes just an easygoing funny cool guy who seems pretty harmless but the moment you see him from someone elses pov hes terrifying. Just a crazy good fighter, a force of nature killing machine, literally gets mistaken for a god in disguise. But he doesnt see that side of himself at all because hes too busy arguing with authority figures and respecting women. I love him
Rest of the comic is under the cut, because LONG :0
Also! Content warnings for body horror, guns, blood(although in black and white) and just...horror in general tbh
Operation "Fall of the Hooded Hawk": For situations where one half of skk has to shoot without having clear vision, and relies on the direction of their partner. In this case, Chuuya was giving Dazai coordinates of where to fire by tapping against his ear. (It's kind of like a trust fall)
I scripted a whole followup conversation with more explanation of what exactly the mirror was, and just general context, but this comic has gotten so long that I'm gonna write that as a short scene in prose, because it's mostly dialogue and if I try to draw it all then I think my hands will secede from my body lol — I'll probably be able to get that done in the next couple of days. But in the meantime, thanks for reading! :D
(3/5/24 edit: Followup convo is done!)
