Shapeshifters, Fakers, and Liars: Full of Sound and Fury Signifying Nothing

image

Don’t let that masculinized facade crack, Dean.

image

That’s Bunny’s closest family, right…. noo… oops.

image

Interesting book                                    that’s actually a latch.

image

Oh, hey, look.  A shelf…                        nope, it’s a door.

image

The family togetherness                       is all a facade.

image

The picture of riches                            that’s all a pretense.

image

Fake jewelry

image

Fake silver

image

Even the hormones are fake

image

Uh, that’s no way to hold your hand if you don’t want Sam to see it.  Oh, you’re playing a game alright, it’s just not a card game.

image

A lustful embrace?                                Or maybe not.

image

Is Sam giving himself up as prey?        Or was he willing to play bait?

image

A well worn ghost in the armor trope?  Or the abyss staring back?

…I feel like I’ve been in this meta slump lately where almost anything I want to say has already been said better by someone else.

It’s really frustrating to me when that happens less than an hour after the episode airs.

Bwah! Yes! It’s been happening to me, too, these past couple of episodes.

Hmmm. “The play is the thing wherein to catch th….” Oh, look a meta on Fan Fiction and Hamlet. Wow, they know a heck of a lot more about Shakespeare than I do.

Hmmm. Lots of images in this latest episode of surface v. what’s contained within, hollowness and things not being what they s…. Oh, look. Not one, but two metas on just those themes. 😛

Narratively, why have Crowley force feeding Cas grace at this point in the story? I wonder.

All that talk about feeling things because you’re human. (Crowley: “Feelings!”)

Lots of discussion among fans that something seems not quite right.

Cas requires doses of grace to remain what he is.

Is this foreshadowing that Dean will need ongoing doses of blood in order to remain human?

OK, I am still on hiatus and I am going to vanish back into the woodwork after I have asked this VERY VITAL QUESTION: how on earth does Sam keep an unsheathed knife there without stabbing himself in the butt every time he sits down?

*goes back on hiatus* *I mean I have stuff to do regarding how medieval Latin poet guy deals with combining Hebrew and Greek etymologies in his character names* *I can’t really afford to be distracted by imponderables like this question* *and yet I am*

@snickfic and anyone else who wants to avoid the season completely, I am tagging anything s10 related with “spn season 10.”

What?  You don’t keep a knife sheathed between your butt-cheeks?

I am fairly sure Jerry Wanek is trying to drive me nuts with his damn red exit signs hovering over Dean. I didn’t think they would still be there after 9 and I am wigging out about how much lower Dean is gonna sink.

Pssst. *nudges you*
