And then there was eye-fucking

astri13Hey, why the fuck do I not get comment notifications anymore? *kicks*
Now onto last night's episode.
This one seems to draw a lot of flak and I, resident cynic and hater...mostly liked it.
Yeah, yeah, an angel literally falling to the Earth like a comet and wearing the "grace" in a little bottle around one's neck are a bit cheesy but that's the kind of stuff I can take. Because I liked Anna well enough and honestly an angel being curious of something they never really have known - being human - makes more sense to me than if a demon who started out freaking human wanting the same.
I liked the Dean/Anna interaction and the sex. Yup, it was generally sweet and vanilla. Because that's what it wanted to be. They didn't have OMG!hate sex, that wasn't what the characters were about. Liked the moment she put her hand on the print of Castiel. Hehe.
And considering Castiel later seemed a bit jealous because he totally likes Dean LIKE THAT, it made me giggle a bit.
Titanic-spoof. Ahem.
Dean/Uriel - like the dynamics and beautifully played by the actors.
Dean and Castiel can eye-fuck anytime. *licks them*
Alistair was a bit wasted, I would have loved to see more of him.
Pamela wasn't as cool as in the Premiere but it was nice seeing her back.
The "it was all a plan" moment came a bit out of left field but okay.
The last scene rocked and I think they did at least try to make it as sympathetic as possible. THIRTY FREAKING YEARS. Where every day he had to CHOOSE the torture going on. Wow, amazing strength of character. Maybe that was why he was chosen. Which btw, spill some hints there, please.
What I didn't like? More Ruby the gold-hearted demon and especially Dean buddying up with her. I find it offensive that the show puts even forward a view of hatred of demons - racism. WTF? They're not some poor, oppressed minority.
God, do I want to hope that Ruby is playing a long con because I cheered hard when she got thrown around or tortured because of the attempts of show to make her "one of the team". I don't WANT her as one of the team. Ever. In any way. I WANT her as an ANTAGONIST. Point blank. So the more she gets shoved down my throat as a good guy, the more I'll laugh when she gets her gold-hearted ass handed to her. Go away, very special demon. What is your fucking purpose on this show if your goodly-good?
Still, if I completely ignore anything Ruby, I liked this one.
For my usual mood-warning: squeers need not fear too much :) Unless they're fans of a particular character. :-p

Date: 2008-11-22 02:44 pm (UTC)Ah, no, for me it's more like Dean is such a caretaker outside of bed, I enjoy him seeing then one taken care of in bed. :) So it's not really about neediness, more like a personal kink of mine.

Date: 2008-11-22 03:18 pm (UTC)I see your point but still can't see him (esp Jensen if we'd talk about rps) as bottom cos all in him screams Top.

Date: 2008-11-22 04:20 pm (UTC)Because he is so macho and in control? That's exactly what makes me think bottom because from some very powerful men throughout history it is known that they enjoyed being dominated in bed, simply because being in control all the time is so stressful and letting go once in a while is liberating. But I'm sure they take turns since variety is even better. :)

Date: 2008-11-23 02:34 pm (UTC)I know what you're saying about powerful men but no Dean and no Jensen (i mean rps one) look powerful enough to think of them as hidden bottom.
But i agree - switching positions is the best way for me (and them i hope).
