Wake Up and Fight_1
Those of you who read my episode Ramble know that I write it immediately after one viewing. Sometimes, that's enough for me (and probably you). Other times, I find that I process through some things either because of comments left or simply just replaying it in my head head after the fact. Normally, when I have more to say, I have another episode Ramble where I can do so.

Not true with a finale. So, I thought I'd post this.

Also -- I will be replying to the lovely comments left on the finale Ramble -- I just had to get a few things in order (and apparently write this up) before I got to all of them. Plus...I might be delaying replying a bit on purpose because once I do...the hellatus has truly begun. I appreciate your patience (and your comments).

Random S7 finale thoughts.... )

So, with that, I have some wishes I'd love to see in S8. I know I'm not alone in some of these as I've seen random comments on Twitter and my f-list. I've not read any codas or tags yet and don't know if I will, to be honest. But I would love to hear your wishes for S8.
I'll just leave this here.... )

I have no idea what all to expect from Jeremy Carver by way of arc and "big bad" and anything else beyond Purgatory, but I do think he's set up for a great start, and I'm excited to see what's to come. Heck, I'm excited to see Dean again, but that's a given. Purgatory could last a whole lot longer than just Dean's time there and the aftermath of his return.

What do you guys think? What is your wish list? What are you looking forward to? What are you worried about?

(And, PS...I know I've not been keeping up on replying to posts right away this week, but I will reply. Cross my heart.)

Holy crap. For this totally spoiler-free fan, that ending was…. I swear they’re trying to kill me. Us. Me. I can’t even….

*rubs hands together in giddy anticipation of Season 8*

The feeling I had last week of this season ending in a three-act play persists with tonight’s episode. Though now, I’m kind of thinking of it more as the parts of a magic trick. Last week was the Pledge where we’re shown something seemingly ordinary. This week was the Turn where the ordinary is made to do something extraordinary and we’re looking for the secret. Next week…is the Prestige.

All the pieces have been set and the game put in motion. I’m going to be a nervous wreck next Friday.

Adagio, 1/1, PG-13, Dean, Sam

My brother

Title: Adagio
Fandom: Supernatural
Author: gaelicspirit
Characters: Dean, Sam
Disclaimer: They're not mine. More's the pity.

Summary: Tag to Episode 7.21, Reading is Fundamental. The words had hit him like blows, leaving marks no one would see, adding scars to a heart broken long ago.

Author's Note: I rarely write missing scenes or tags, but the look on Dean's face when confronted by the angel Hester was haunting me. This is just my way of working through some of the layers before the action in the final two episodes of the season sweeps us along. It's not the usual hurt/comfort/action stuff that I normally like to write. It's basically just a little ditty 'bout Sam and Dean and a different kind of pain.

Also, this hasn't been beta'd, so red pens down. Thanks, Terry, as always for the sanity check.

If you read, I hope you enjoy.


This way to the story )

Whew-boy. So, remember back in S1 when we had what ended up feeling like a 3-part season finale culminating in the awesomeness that was “Devil’s Trap”? Yeah…that’s kinda what I’m thinking about with this one.

Ramble On

So. Fun. Have I mentioned that I love our show? I have? Well, it's worth repeating. But I'll do so below the cut.


Ramble On )

buckle up

My goodness, I love our show. I just…I do. I love it, plot holes, nit-picks, leaps of faith and all. It always entertains me. I don’t want to say too much above the cut except…I really liked this one.


The Ramble )

buckle up
You guys. This show. I just…. We all may be riding the SPN roller coaster throughout the season, but I have to say, when it’s good it is good.

Also? I’m so glad I am a spoilerphobe. This was one episode I would not want to have had prior knowledge of. That said, if you are among those who reads this ramble before watching the episode, you obviously don’t mind that I spoil you for the whole thing – but there’s a scene in this episode that really deserves to be seen first for the sheer impact.

Just make sure you come back…. *grins*

We'll always have Paris

always together
So, just as I did when Cisco sent me to Sydney, Australia, I thought I'd share with you the whirlwind work trip that was Paris. Feel free to skim or skip, but if you're wondering about the reason I've been tired and late with episode rambles lately (and why this bloody fic {and I kinda mean that literally} is taking longer than planned to get finished and posted) well, here 'tis.

If you're Facebook friends with me, you've seen these pictures already -- and probably saw some of the story via statuses. This is just the...director's cut. *grins*

Si j'avais plus de temps, j'aurais trouvĂ© encore plus de mystère. )


So that's it! Paris in 7 hours, on no money, and with a 2.5 day meeting thrown in. *smiles*

PS - I have read through the comments posted to the Ramble for episode 7.17 and will be working through replies today and tomorrow. Love your beautiful minds!
buckle up

Oh, Show. How you twist me up and wring me out. My heart. She hurts. But this is why I love you.

Parting words: To all you gorgeous people who take time to comment on this ramble (not that the rest of you aren’t equally as gorgeous, I’m just talking to these guys at the moment), thank you and if I haven’t responded to your comments from 7.16, I will.

I want to make sure I read and respond to what you said and not just wave as I run past. Some weeks, finding time for that is harder than others, but I promise to respond to each comment. Thanks for your time!
