#make it happen Kripke

[katherinehoughtoncastle47]

With Jensen in The Boys, Gen V and now his own spin off, I hope he appears in every single Boys spin off they ever do. He could be the John Ratzenberger of that franchise.

supernatural s1e16 shadow (w. eric kripke)

No, bite her. Don't leave teeth marks though, I mean just enough to where—

dean is invested and ready to help 📝

if it had been hughie the shapeshifter turned into, and annie that they tricked and raped and proposed to - there would have been monologue after monologue this episode about how violated annie felt.

and if hughie had blamed annie for even an instant for not realising it wasn’t him or for being raped or accidentally getting engaged to a person who had the same face, body, voice, mannerisms and memories as him - the amount of unholy backlash hughie’s character would face in the show and from fans would blow him away.

why are people (and the fucking shitty writers) so fucking quick to dismiss hughie’s trauma and accept annie’s wrongdoings just because he’s a man and she’s a woman? being a man doesn’t immediately make you the wrong one, and being a woman doesn’t excuse your mistakes. like, they both suffered huge amounts of trauma - why should either of them have had to apologise for what happened to them? and to the people saying “oh annie forgave him and they made up immediately after” no - she told him to get an std test and somehow that made everything okay again?? seriously?? roles reversed, how would that have felt coming out a man’s mouth to a woman?

fuck kripke so much

My thing is that I just do not trust a single person who was involved in the show. It just seems like a lot of PR to fix their image and foster sympathy/goodwill/interest.

Jared is finally confirmed for the next season of The Boys 😁😁😁😁

I'm so excited for J2 to be working together again!!!!!

Assuming Soldier Boy makes an appearance. I feel like he will though. (because I've been at the cottage I haven't watched the last episode that came out and I won't be home to watch tonight's episode either. So idk if he has or not but I'm still holding out hope)

[cliveguy]

hrello mr C guy. please redacted reveal soon it would make my summer. even the most anticlimactic expose would sustain me for at least a week

i PROMMY redacted reveal this summer. i'm just biding my time waiting for the funniest time to do it. but it will definitely be this summer and probably sooner rather than later.

14x20 Ending = Two Main Protagonists Confirmed

Was rewatching 14x20 for reasons and this scene stuck out to me again like it always does:

Here, we see Dean taking the Equalizer gun (still a stupid name, sorry not sorry) to kill Jack after Chuck presents the suggestion as only he can. In the end, Dean doesn't shoot Jack, he and Sam confront Chuck, they learn he's the ultimate bad guy, and he basically sets them up for the ultimate apocalypse. One last ride.

And here's where we see the setup for the two main protagonists/heroes...because they have been the main two protagonists/heroes for a while. Dean and Sam = yin and yang.

Dean is the one taking the shot at Jack/willing to sacrifice himself; Sam is the one Chuck mostly interacts with & he figures out what Chuck is really doing

Chuck mentions the whole "father and son" thing when it comes to Dean and Jack; Sam calls Chuck out on what he's really doing

Dean tells Chuck to go to Hell & Chuck kills Jack; Sam shoots Chuck & Chuck starts the apocalypse

Dean makes the choice not to shoot Jack; Sam makes the choice to shoot Chuck

Dean was willing to sacrifice himself to shoot Jack who they think is the villain and save the world from him; Sam was willing to sacrifice himself to shoot Chuck who is the real villain to save Jack

Yin and yang.

If there was only one main protagonist, that one brother would have been the one to choose to shoot Jack & sacrifice himself, Chuck would have had his focus on & the most interactions with, would've been the sole father in that dynamic with Jack (minus Cas), would have been the catalyst for Chuck killing Jack and starting the apocalypse, and would have been the one to choose to shoot Chuck & sacrifice himself. The other brother would have just been a bystander if that was the case.

Another way you can tell that there are two main protagonists is that they knocked Cas out (literally and both times) of these important scenes with the two Gods (Chuck and Jack who will replace him) and the brothers despite his being an angel, despite his relationship with Jack, even despite his relationship with both brothers and the family they've all settled into. He has some lines, sure, but notice how he is not able to be involved in the decision making or really active in the standoff with Chuck. Not to diminish Cas and his importance to the story or to Jack or even Sam and Dean, but here we see that he is clearly not the main protagonist of the story. Same with Jack even though he becomes the new God in the next season, and they pulled the ol' switcheroo in this episode between him and Chuck. They literally played the shell game with the audience by having Chuck show up the way he did so it could all lead up to this moment: the Winchester brothers telling Chuck to eff off and the resulting final conflict (they're not only fighting for their freedom and to reclaim their narrative/lives but also the final boss) that will eventually reach the climax and final standoff. So of course there would be no Mary, no Bobby, no John, no Jody, no Donna, no Claire, etc in this scene and Cas would be sidelined.

It was always about Sam and Dean.

The two main protagonists.

i think why the boys show works SO much better than the comics is largely that the edgyness is reigned in quite a bit. comparing the plane crash scene from s1/issue #21, the show has a bit more care in showing what they are doing is initially being sent to help before and that it then becomes clear that homelander and maeve CANT save everyone, and homelander decides to just. abandon everyone. its a super emotional scene and works very well to show the horrors of their actions and how it impacts maeve after the fact. its the first major scene where the way that homelander is fucked up plays out clear in front of the audience.

then take the comics. this is told mostly via a big exposition dump and is revealed that the plane is one of the ones hijacked during 9/11. yes ennis has decided this is a good idea. the entire team is there and it is almost like ennis is making a joke out of their incompetence instead of treating it as homelander making the decision because he is very cruel. and then ennis tosses a few racial slurs in there for good measure and a ton of people die. its the worst example of how ennis' determination of doing something edgy, something that will be full of shock value, completely ruins the comic.

the idea of a kripke spn continuation manages to give me anxiety every day, i wish i was normal

[justa-smalltown-gargoyle]

If I had a nickel for every time Eric Kripke created a show where accidentally two “straight” male characters had a crazy amount of tension and chemistry but they tried to pass it off as just dudes being pals I’d have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice

[angel-fruitcake]

so like. why did i never hear about Jensen and Danneel moving their production company last year to Amazon, with whom Eric Kripke has been working for years? and how the deal covers both producing and acting while the previous WB deal only covered producing?? and then take into account the fact that Amazon has let Kripke get away with absolutely insane (AND VERY GAY) shit on the Boys?? hello???

i can't believe i didn't know this until today. i am now 100% convinced that if there is a Supernatural revival, it will be both Eric Kripke and Jensen Ackles overseeing it, and it will be under Amazon.

both of those factors combined means, in my [clown] opinion, a chance of Destiel actually happening. i need 2025 to hurry up and get here so Jensen can make his "rather strong announcement" [<<question at 21:55] that he hinted at in March.

[drulalovescas]

cas' confession was the first thing bobo wrote for season 15 aka THEE FINAL season of supernatural. and Misha read it and was so damn excited. he even changed some bits and pieces about it. and then they both played politics to have the confession greenlit. and misha talked to 13 ???!!!! execs to make it happen. he talked to dabb and singer. he talked to jensen. probably to kripke too, right?? lol he had to have the approval of them all. and he got it. the man put so much effort. literally FOUGHT for it (per his own words). and then they butchered the confession in the editing. and erased cas from the surface of the show as a "thank you." and didn't let dean and cas reunite. not even in a goddamn flashback. BUT. despite all this. the confession trended above elections! and is still celebrated even four years after the show ended. and is supernatural's unwanted legacy. and i think it's kinda EPIC.

[im-some-lionheart]

and you know what YOU KNOW WHAT. they never, not ONCE, gave Sam one of these angsty plots with Cas.

Why wasn't Sam sent to Purgatory with Cas?

Why wasn't Sam seeing him (wasn't he supposed to be the psychic one anyway) after failing to save him?

Why wasn't Sam mocked by demons for having an angel friend?

Why didn't Sam lose hope whenever Cas died?

Why didn't Sam begging for his life break the brainwashing?

Why didn't Sam have to take care of Cas' dead body?

Why, mr. Kripke?

WHY???

I know we joke about it a lot but truly. We know Dean is in love with Cas because Sam isn't. Sam never has been. It wouldn't make sense for any of those archs to happen with Sam because Sam isn't in love with Cas. Dean is.

Debunking Nonsense Against Jared

There's apparently some crap about Jared that is just absolute nonsense. Full of lies and bullshit.

It'd be one thing if people just didn't like him. It happens. Not everyone is likeable. You're not expected to like him. But don't pull up lies to explain why you don't like him. Especially when they've been debunked again and again and again.

1. The "racist" tattoo. Y'all, this is nonsense. It's been debunked over and over and over. It's not a racist tattoo. For one, it's lacking the logo of "Come and take it", which would make it a racist tattoo. But a lone star above a cannon does not a racist tattoo make.

Jared is a proud Texan. He also donates to many a charity and organization that help people, speaking out about them often. Not to mention, prior to pro-gun rights appropriating the symbol and logo, it stood for a proud history in Texas. Jared would've known.

So how about instead of focusing on a mere tattoo, come up with more proof that Jared is a racist? Hmm?

Besides, if you're mad at Jared's tattoo, are you then mad at Jensen's t-shirt, which did show the saying as well?

2. Fighting with fans online. Oh come on. Misha's done it. (Misha's done worse, in fact.) Danneel's done it. Jared doing it does not a bad person make. And I don't think he's done it in a long time.

And of course, people will go "Danneel was hitting back!" And? What's the difference? Jared was hitting back too. Danneel went a step farther most of the time, siccing her followers on them, threatening them with Clif, even ran crying to Clif because people were being "mean".

3. RE: Prequelgate. Give me a fucking break! Jared was right to be upset! He called and texted Jensen for hours before he gave up and responded to that tweet about The Winchesters announcement. Jensen also lied about not being allowed cellphones on The Boys set. When they weren't filming, they were allowed. (Of course they can't have their cellphones on their person during filming, unless it suited the scene!) Besides all that, Jared honestly didn't know about it! Kripke was even shocked when he learned Jared didn't know! Supernatural and its legacy is as much Jared's as it was Jensen's! The whole freakin' industry gave Jensen a massive side-eye for his unprofessional behavior. Kevin Smith, a man who has directed, written, and acted in the industry, thought it was uncool. Also, Jared wasn't drunk.

4. Supposed bully accusations. I'd need to see more of this to believe it, but outside of occasionally putting Misha in his bullshit place, I've never heard of Jared bullying anyone. Everyone he's worked with has sung his praises. The only one who hasn't is Misha and that's because Jared won't let Misha put him down. And in fact, has had to step in to stop Misha from torturing Jensen. So fuck off with your noise.

5. His fanbase. Is he now responsible for his fanbase? I never knew that. What about Misha's fanbase sending Jensen death threats for denouncing Destiel? Has Misha ever stopped that? What about AAs hoping for Jared to suicide after Walker was cancelled?

6. What about Genevieve? Oh come on! Do I like that Gen is featuring the kids a lot? Myself, no. But if Jared was truly bothered by it, I'm sure he would've spoken to Genevieve. And Gen isn't any different than many other mommy influencers. I'm not keen on exploiting the kids like that, but would you say the same about Danneel abruptly grabbing the kids at Wales Comic Con and dragging them out for a photo op? All because she had no one in line for her autographs and desperate for attention?

7. Jared's Hair. Apparently there are some claiming Jared had gotten hair plugs. My response to that is: So what? Misha's had plastic surgery (trust me, it's obvious--his eyes and clearly lip fillers). Danneel's had worse--her hair is fried, bad extensions, plastic surgery galore that has ruined her hair line because of facelifts, fillers, Botox, and breast implants (twice!). Jensen's likely had a bit of work too.

So. Fucking. What. About Jared's hair?

--

Come up with truthful reasons to hate Jared, hmm? Not bullshit.

little headcanons for vickys powers bc they r so inconsistent it drives me crazy and i’ve made these all up in my head to act like she didn’t die an unfinished character:

after victoria blew up congress in s2, that woman SLEPTTT. we know that blood manipulation in the boys universe is tiring, victoria says it to marie in gen v, so imagine popping 12+ heads one after another… yeah she was exhausted. she literally ran on coffee and energy drinks for the next few days.

she can constantly hear people’s heartbeats and blood flow and it drives her crazy. i feel like she can hear heartbeats the same way cate can hear everyone’s thoughts - that it’s insanely overwhelming. she can definitely tune them out, it just takes a lot of strength and power. her favourite thing is just being alone with zoe, her heartbeat is the only one she can tolerate.

her eyes only turn white when she uses a lot of her powers (blood manipulation or extra durability). because there is no way in hell one of the smartest the boys characters tried to explode homelander’s head on live television - and that her eyes would turn white even though she didn’t succeed? the only reason they did turn white is because she tanked HOMELANDERS LASERS. like that’s an insane feat and ppl don’t credit my girl enough for that smh 😒

i wish we could see vicky with constant white eyes in the hearing scene in s2 but curse you eric kripke!! i love those pretty eyes 😖 (dare i say she has the second best supe eyes in the whole show! my fave is stormfronts, her powers are so cool)

one of my favourite headcanons is that she used to increase her heart rate around homelander to act like she was scared. especially in her first scene in the show when he swoops down and takes the microphone from her. she could’ve popped his head right there, she had minutes to do it, but instead she acted like she was scared - speeding up her heart rate to not give anything away. ugh she’s so smart and perfect.

in my little fanon world vicky did put herself back together after she was so wrongfully killed (😑). but putting herself back together came at a cost and she lost her powers. vicky had always known in the back of her mind just how powerful she was, stan had been telling her that her whole life. she always knew that if something like that happened, she would be able to come back. her body slowly stitched itself back together, making completely new organs and even more blood! her organs were completely made out of her old blood and guts tho, kinda like patchwork jeans! but they work… so they’re good enough for her.

lemme know if you guys would want more stuff like this! i have a whole essay written about how wrong they did her character, how they should’ve done her powers and ended her storylines but… thats the autism speaking
