#also the more i rewatch 15x08 the more irrationally angry buckleming's shallow ass portrayal of her makes me sorry

[samsrowena]

i've mentioned this before but i think it's time for an actual dedicated post because. i'm sorry. but i do not think rowena's ending was good and i'm tired of pretending like it was. like yes in theory i'm happy for her becoming a hashtag girlboss and all and if it happened in season ten or eleven i would totally get it. but as it stands rowena is someone who has some of the best character development in the show and even as early as season twelve her motivations had changed far too much to where i don't even think she would *want* the throne. certainly not after season thirteen when all she wants is to be redeemed. and i just refuse to accept the idea that dying and being stuck in hell for the rest of eternity is redemption, no matter how much the show loves to push "just kill yourself if you want absolution!" (*cough jack cough crowley cough gadreel cough many others cough cough cough*) and regardless of whether or not she (thinks) she runs the joint. and i say thinks because even though it ends up going nowhere we are shown in season fifteen the demons are going behind her back and not following the rules. so with that it's just like what truly is the point of her becoming queen if it's not chuck getting her out of the way and placating her the same way he placates dean in the end by sticking him in heaven (x)
