I watched last night's episode... is it just me, or does Dean need a slap upside the head?
Not that Castiel is innocent either, but Dean's consistent refusal to understand that if Castiel loses, the Apocalypse is back on track drives me nuts. He consistently ignores that Castiel has told him Raphael wants to restart the Apocalypse, even though Dean would be tortured into compliance if the Apocalypse restarted and Castiel wasn't around to run interference.
I suspect Eve isn't as dead as Crowley thinks -- she's only using a human body she stole, after all. Actually, I hope she's not really dead, because I liked her as a Big Bad and thought she got a sucky end.
Also, Crowley being the only one who doesn't underestimate the Winchester brothers... well, it's about time someone didn't. Sam and Dean have been punching seriously above their weight for years. Someone should have noticed.
Interesting that human souls generate their own Heavens -- somehow, Castiel's phrasing of what happened made it seem much less creepy that last year's "Dark Side of the Moon" explanation.
"Explaining poetry to fish" -- bwahaha. Poor Castiel. Though it justifies my head-canon that angels are basically God's AI construction equipment that got a bit buggy when he tried adapting it to new uses.
I loved hearing Castiel's experiences in his own words. It was very neat, because I think he's one of the hardest characters to get inside the head of. Also, I like how they're smooshing evolution and biblical literism -- it will not end well, but trying to rationalize Icthyostega and the Tower of Babel is always an exercise in handwaving. Also, I'm definitely imagining that Gabriel was the one saying "we have very big plans for that fish".
Interesting how Castiel is framed as either the new Lucifer or the new God, depending on who is doing the framing.
It would be nice if God actually got off His divine ass and stopped his firstborn kids from slaughtering each other. Since he made them without free will, he's kind of responsible for them, don't you think? He should have at least giving them better instructions -- something along the lines of "Don't end the world" would have been nice.
And last, I'm glad to have it confirmed that angels don't have souls, which is what I've long suspected.
