First off, Livejournal is being a cold unresponsive little bitch today. Is it me, baby? We used to be so good together. Why aren't you loading your pages like you used to?

Secondly, my neighbour is playing really loud techno. Thankfully, it's not the same song over and over again (which he's done). Unfortunately, it's been going on for some two hours now and is really annoying. My roommate and I have this theory - based on totally judging people by their appearance and small bits of behaviour as espied from the balcony** - that he likes to celebrate the purchase of certain non-medicinal drugs by trancing out to techno, so we basically only get the noise when he's gotten lucky and has money. Omg plz be shutting up now.

Thirdly, the one thing that I'd been meaning to post about for days, I forget to post about when next I post. The fail, it burns. The thing I meant to blog about? The Jus In Bello Convention.

Please consider the following:

1) It was a Supernatural convention
2) It was in Rome.
3) It was from the 2nd to the 4th of April

Add to that:

1) I am a Supernatural fan
2) I was in Rome.
3) I was in Rome during those dates

What do you get?

Nothing.

Why? Because I didn't attend. The Con. For Show. In Rome. When I was there. This upsets me. Photos of Jensen at the Colliseo? Fuck me! I could've walked to the bloody Colliseo! Misha went to Ostia Antica? We bloody well went there! (Well, no, but we went next door, basically, because we'd arrived too late to really make a day of Ostia Antica.) Fuck! I just never did the math well enough to realize that it would have been possible - same place, same time - because those things' tickets are supposedly bloody expensive and need to be bought well in advance. Nevermind the folks on [livejournal.com profile] dean_sam selling tickets last minute. Gold platter, guys! The opportunity was handed to me on a gold freaking platter and I never even turned around to look! Argh!

It's your fault in that you made me care more about Sam. I mean, I liked him and all, but you've suddenly made me go, "Oh Sammykins! Darling! Don't let the mean people hurt your feelings."

Well, there's always the catch that Michael might be nice and not fry Dean's ass after using him as a vessel, like he did with Young!John... But still, Sam knows Dean doesn't want to hand over the reigns to his life and body to an angel (or as Dean puts it, a dick) and is therefore being the damn rock of their Team Free Will.

Dean could totally have been more supportive of Sam and his demon addiction. He was, actually, rather a jerk about it. "Omg, you sick bastard! What are you doing? You crazy fool! Stop right now! What? Saving innocent people, exocising demons, maybe stopping the last seal being opened? Lalalala I'm not listening."

We do not spend too much time talking to each other, shut up. (♥)

I rather don't think Michael will care greatly what happens to Dean after he discards him. Sure, he may restore him afterwards, but Michael is pretty much an apathetic bastard who couldn't give two shits what happens to the earth and 6 billion of people, much less Dean who is merely the means to an end.

I totally agree that Sam is currently being the rock of their Team Free Will (and I am kind of amused and heart-warmed by the fact that Dean and Sam seem to be taking turns at it. Cas, you're up next!)

Apropos demon blood: has anyone noticed Sam's progress in that matter, anyway? They've been killing a bunch of demons last episode and Sam hasn't even bat an eye regarding all the tasty demon blood around him. No one has noticed, have they?

I love that I've inspired you to care more about Sam! ;) *huggles you madly*

Shutting up! ♥

I want Cas to get his act together and snark the boys into action like he used to. Sad Cas hurts too much. Sam, hug him, damint!

What I want to know about Sam and the demon blood is why did his blood freakin' burn when he did the anti-angel spell in The Song Remains the Same (I think). I mean, Cas did say, Consuming the amount of blood it would take to kill Lilith would change your brother forever; most likely he would become the next creature you would feel compelled to kill. I mean, if the YED hadn't been right when he said How do you know that what you brought back was a hundred percent, pure, Sam? So as tired as I was with the on-again-off-again treatment of Sam's addiction, I really want them to deal with Sam "the Abomination" Winchester.

...oh dear, too many thinky thoughts.

I didn't get anything you said, because I've totally forgotten everything you've just listed. Sorry! Elaborate, please? Sam's powers are my favourite topic!

Gah. My mail provider is screwing up to send out the bending_sickle sent you a reply! notifications, which is probably why I missed several of your comments :/

*gasp* Ok, let's see if I can give this a second try and be all coherent.

Show's been making this huge deal over Sam having demon blood in him. First, it was YED's blood, which made him psychic, but with YED's death that power seems to have gone. However, there was still the big "Omg, flail!" that Sam had demon blood in him, making him Different and possiby Evil.

Then there was Ruby's blood, which gave Sam more or different psychic powers. The more blood he got in him, the stronger he was (and also the more different and evil).

So when he was drinking blood to kill Lilith, the amount of power he needed to kill her meant he had to drink a lot of blood which meant he got to be extra evil.

Show's been going on about how Sam can detox from the demon blood, but back whenit was just YED's blood in him, Sam went on about how he had demon blood in him and could never get it out. So that's a no on the detox. Then after Sam sucked Ruby dry (minds out of the gutter!), Castiel believed that that amount of blood and power and the changes they would do to Sam couldn't be gotten rid of with detox. (See above comment's quote.)

So we have two cases where it says that detoxing wouldn't do anything about the demon blood in Sam - it would just stop the cravings. Which means that Sam is Different, at blood-level. Add to that the "Sam was dead then brought back to life and maybe he wasn't brought back a-ok" doubt, and we have a seriously Different (possibly Evil) Sam.

And we see this when Sam does the anit-angel spell with his blood. When Sam does it, the blood burns (http://www.supernaturalfansonline.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=309&pid=46058) (hellfire, anyone?), but when Dean (http://www.screencaps.org/SciFi/Supernatural/Season-5/Episode-1/Supernatural-S5-E1-245.jpg) or Cas (http://www.supernaturalfansonline.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=160&pid=15673) do it, it doesn't.

So something is different about Sam and it's tied to his blood. Which is why Cas calls him an abomination. And I want to know more about what it is that makes Sam different, and how.

Did that make sense?
