DEAN IS JESUS? SERIOUSLY?

So, -and I need to rewatch this and listen to Uriel better- but Uriel called the humans, Sam and Dean especially, something that sounded a lot like "buttmonkey" and Castiel chastises him for erring close to blasphemy. And then Castiel reveals to Dean that he and Uriel are supposed to do whatever Dean tell them to? (Please Castiel/Dean shippers do not twist that.) So.. Dean is the second coming of Jesus? What?

Also, was it just me or did Dean say that Sam's powers were okay as long as he was saving kids? (Very gospels of Luke and John thing to say by the way) Because that's what I heard and wow.

Powers!Sam is great.

Also, why did Castiel stroke Sam's hand like that when he met him? Because, to my possibly eggnog addled eyes, that came across as at least vaguely sexual? Sam/Castiel? Antichrist/Angel overtones?

Castiel, I love you so hard right now. I'm always kind of iffy on characters who are completely black and white. And I *love* angels who are in the gray area - Lucifer of Lucifer, Dumas and Remiel of Sandman, Crowley and Aziraphale of Good Omens, to name a few. They make me a little joyous inside. And Castiel in this episode was some amazing combination of Aziraphale and Lucifer and if that continues I will be a puddle of goo.

can you tell me where you got this feeling at(like, in what part of the episode)? because i'll have to rewatch.

At the very end, with the emotional conversation between Castiel and Dean where they talked about the importance of kids and trees and God's creation.

(I could be wrong. I've been working on brandied eggnog.)

[jameserin.livejournal.com]

LOL. i'll have to rewatch.

Uriel was calling them "mud monkeys," which would have been a lot funnier if I hadn't just taken a midterm all about early primates and austrolopithecines.

Okay, it was still funny.

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

That makes a lot more sense than butt monkeys.

DEAN IS JESUS? SERIOUSLY?

That's what I told my roommate! I was like, ok, so Sam is definitely the Anti-christ, and DEAN IS COMMANDING ANGELS, so that makes Dean Jesus. And he rolled his eyes at me. Thank you for the validation!

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

So... like, what does is MEAN that the Antichrist and Jesus are two co-dependent, vaguely romantically involved brothers?

[mselfie.livejournal.com]

And if that doesn't spell the end of the world, then really, what does?

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but neither of them are going to stand for being separated or destroying the other one, which is generally how the world ends.

[jameserin.livejournal.com]

THEY CANNOT DESTROY EACH OTHER. I WILL BE A VERY PISSED JAMIE IF KRIPKE DOES THAT. IF ONE GOES, THEY BOTH GO!

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

BUT BUT BUT IF THEY'RE JESUS AND DEMON JESUS THAT'S HOW IT ALWAYS ENDS. I MEAN, THEY MIGHT JUST BE SEPARATED FOR ALL ETERNITY IN HEAVEN AND HELL, BUT I JUST CAN'T SEE SAM AND DEAN STANDING FOR THAT.

[jameserin.livejournal.com]

ME EITHER. I WILL TOTALLY CRY OKAY AND I AM NOT A CRIER AT ALL. DAMN KRIPKE FOR MAKING ME EMOTIONALLY INVESTED IN A TV SHOW. WTF. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME FOR IDENTIFYING WITH DEAN SO MUCH, ISN'T THERE? I MEAN I'M NOT JESUS YOU KNOW BUT I WAS TALKING ABOUT OTHER STUFF.

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

I IDENTIFY MORE WITH DEAN THAN IS POSSIBLY EVER HEALTHY SO I AM NOT THE PERSON TO ASK

I AM TOTALLY SECRETLY JESUS

[jameserin.livejournal.com]

GOOD, THEN YOU UNDERSTAND DEAN LIKE I DO. I FEEL BETTER NOW, REALLY.

I'D WANT TO BE A SECRET JESUS TOO IF YOU KNOW, I BELIEVED IN THAT SORT OF THING.

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

I AM A WEASEL WHO WAS BORN OUT OF MY MOTHER'S EAR. SECRETLY.

[jameserin.livejournal.com]

THAT SOUNDS UNCOMFORTABLE.

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

DON'T YOU KNOW MARY IS A WEASEL?

[jameserin.livejournal.com]

that makes me think of rugarus(sp?)for some reason, i dfk why. YES I KNOW I WATCH SUPERNATURAL TOO MUCH, OKAY.

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

It's medieval logic at its best.

[mselfie.livejournal.com]

Maybe that's what the angels are relying on? BROTHERLY LOVE IS GOD'S MASTER PLAN!!

[elder-sign.livejournal.com]

I did not roll my eyes! Think back, look carefully at the memory, and you will clearly see that I SNEERED!!!

Aaaaaaannd... I think you guys are totally reading too much into what Castiel said. They were only supposed to follow Dean's orders for that one mission. To see if he would sacrifice the town or try to save it.

And Uriel is a dick.

[hecticity.livejournal.com]

Wow, I just got out of a New Testament class and I totally didn't catch any of this. D:

But I'm with you on the gray area angels though. :D

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

I'm an indoctrinated Catholic daughter of crazy Christians. I can't help it.

[hecticity.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that'd do it.

[maladaptive.livejournal.com]

But if Jesus is the son of God and the Antichrist is the son of the Devil how does that work.

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

Well, Dean's been brought back from the dead after spending three months in Hell. It was only after the stint in Hell that he seems to be Jesus-like (except he's always had love for his mother Mary and thought she was perfect - now it's worse after she tried to beat him up).

Sam has two daddies and a mommy. He has his two regular parents, but then Azazel, the demon, fed baby Sam his blood and made him part demon. Azazel referred to people like Sam as his children.

DEAN IS JESUS? SERIOUSLY?


Ok, the first thing I thought when I read this was

"Wait, what - my crack!tastic sleep-dep'd amusing musings written after episode 1 is true?

XD

Ok, so my reasoning wasn't quite on, but I still love that idea *grin*

I think Castiel is getting a lot more interesting -this is the first ep where i've beenr eally interested to find out more about where he's coming from!
