I have a favorite moment in Murderbot, e4, and to no one's surprise it concerns Ratthi.

I really like the "you're being macho. It's disgusting"--"you're both wonderful people" exchange. It's a fantastically built moment.

First, with how Ratthi--even riled up, confused, and waving around that gun in the stupidest way possible--handles the accusation. Pin-Lee bursts out with telling him, basically, "You're being reckless in a stupid, gendered way", and Ratthi just forces out a "you're both wonderful people", which in this context means primarily "I'm still me, still a Preservation person through and through... But I think this needs to be done, and I am doing this." Having enough presence of mind to code-switch rather than double-down is a wonderful piece of characterization for Ratthi.

Second, in doing this, he's being the inspiration for the other two to get moving, because he may be the least competent member of the team by far--but also something needs to be done, and if the more competent people won't do it, he will. And the best part of this bait-and-switch is that this is, stereotypically, a female-gendered role. When the Damsel in Distress shames the Big Strong Men into acting because if she's willing to put herself into danger--what's wrong with them? Which, transposed with Pin-Lee's accusation, is just... chef's kiss

So Im Rewatching S15

Thus far its not my fave season but no season ever is till after the half, and we havent had much after the half yet LOL. I noticed an inconsistancy in the episode where Lilith came back (I cant remember the name) that I didnt notice before... Sam shoots her with a demon trap bullet and comes at her with the demon blade, he says “I killed you once, I can do it again” and it made me think they must have forgotten in s3 she told them the blade wouldnt work against her, and Sam killed her in s4 with his powers. 

I groaned for a minute, and yes it’s annoying, but as I always say, bad writing and inconsistancies have been around since the very beginning. I remember picking them out one by one when I watched it the first time, my friend who got me to watch it thought i probably wouldnt want to finish because I seemed to not like it, since i would always find fault. Though I admit I wasnt a big fan till the 2nd half of s2, I think I may have come to a conclusion as to why I still love it and wish it would go on forever, and why I can still watch my least fav seasons with joy. 

Its about Sam and Dean. Thats what I fell in love with, and thats why I stay. With that. no matter how inconsistant the writing has been, they did manage to create the most interesting characters in Sam snd Dean that Ive ever come across. They got more than lucky that Jared and Jensen showed up that day because i cant imagine anyone in all of Hollywood that could have done Sam and Dean better. 

It makes me sad now as to how many people have lost hope in the show because if the writing, yet, say they love Sam and Dean and the show is about the brothers. Y’all may not like the stories as of late, but Sam and Dean are closer than ever, and just as interesting now as theyve ever been dispite who and what is going on around them. 

This is what the show is to me. Two amazingly interesting, beautiful brothers, and a bunch of chaos around them. Throw at me anything you want but keep Sam and Dean together and J2 playing them and i would watch it forever. 

If I love someone, Id never stop loving them or break apart from them because I dont like their friend, or their mom, or they had a bad day, week, month, year. Id groan and muddle through the bad and be there forever. 

So, as Im sure youre aware my heart is breaking that my time with Sam and Dean is coming to an end. i would like to ask any of you that are willing, to just stop worrying about the outside stuff and love the show just a little while longer because its still about The Brothers and will be forever.

About 15x10

Did anyone notice that even though Sam and Dean got a dose of small stuff to deal with, they didn't lose their cool? Sam still caught Dean’s keys mid-air, they didn’t get winded, sweat, or stink after their 10 mile walk (as Garth pointed out how good Dean smelled) Dean may have had cavities but they didn't get any broken teeth of broken noses, getting bashed in the face by the huge Vampire.

Just for bonus, domestic!winchesters information. I love that they were making roast chicken and spiral noodles and tomato sauce for dinner. I dont know why I found that adorable but I did  😊😍

As Screwy as 15x09 was..

And it was indeed fucked up... I have to say I appreciate they left Sam’s virtue intact. It wouldnt have offended anyone except non-Saileen shipping Samgirls if Sam and Eileen had had sex, and in fact, might have sold the “She’s very important to him” trope better if they had, but they showed they didn’t share a bedroom, and they both looked and acted like that kiss was their first, and SPN has never NOT let us know when a Winchester has gotten laid, either visually or by saying so, so its safe to say, they did not. 

It didnt matter to me early on if either Sam or Dean got laid, thats what hot guys do, but since S8, Ive grown to really love that Sam has bigger things to worry about. A good, strong, gorgeous, young heterosexual male that thinks there are more important things in life and relationships than sex, is a breath of fresh air. So to not only keep that image up, but reinforce it with the knowledge that they stayed in the same house, and she very much wanted it, and he still didn't pursue it, is really awesome!! So... at the very least, thanks for that part SPN Powers that Be!!!!

I'm excited about this episode

J2 have talked a lot for the past few years about wanting an episode where the guys have normal problems and sit around in their underwear doing laundry. I dont think they’ll be in their underwear, but they’re both being asked to take their shirts off. Im thinking maybe Garth’s babies barf or poop on them and they have to get their shirts washed. 

Im glad J2 got what they wanted :)

Something I really like about SPN is it’s uniqueness. For example. I think its cool that not only have most actors on the show have played more than one character, but that most characters have been played by more than one actor.😮😁

SPN PSA

So now that we all know what Jared went through while filming the end of Prophet and Loss, and went home and cried thinking he blew it, can y’all please stop claiming they boys aren't even into the show anymore and are lying for PR reasons if they say they are?

Both Jared and Jensen still obviously love the show and go over and above the call duty to share with us, something they are proud of. No one said you have to like it, but please respect the fact that they do, and so do a shit ton of others.
