i don't know why i started thinking about this but i'm suddenly haunted by the calm and peaceful look on bela's face right when she thinks dean is about to kill her

i mean look at her. she's not scared. she's ready. she looked him right in the eyes and lied about killing her "lovely" parents for money, lied about not caring about them or him or anyone but herself. and then she closed her eyes and waited for him to pull the trigger. she *wanted* him to. because it's better than being ripped apart by hellhounds at midnight right?

I haven't watched season 3 of SPN in so long. I forgot so many things. Time is on My Side has to be peak really. The boys are absolutely gorgeous in it. So many beautiful shots of Jared that it's a banquet. Peak co-dependence, Sam willing for them to go all Sid and Nancy. Peak grossness. Bonus tied up Sam with eye close ups. And the pièce de résistance, Sam asking Dean how he's going to stop him when Dean tells him he's not letting him go off by himself. Hints of Soulless right there. We rarely saw this Sam later on after all the pile on of blame of season's 4 and 5 and the trauma of everything after that, except for Soulless. And isn't that just a bitch. Sam has to lose his beaten down soul to stand up for himself. Sigh. Season 2 tends to win polls as fandom's favorite season, but honestly, Season 3 is the gift that keeps on giving.

Rewatching Time Is on My Side

Welcome to “He's not even staying caught up on his reading: A Supernatural Rewatch Blog” with Lor and Mace!

  Up today, s3e15: Time is on My Side.

    Dean's running out of time and Sam's getting desperate to save him, so Sam convinces his brother to head to Ohio to investigate cases of folks getting abducted and then waking up without certain organs. Secretly Sam suspects it's the reappearance of a zombie-like doctor their father hunted years ago, and he wants to learn the dude's secret to long life. Turns out it comes with a heavy price that Dean refuses to pay. Cue the gross-out organ harvesting scenes and fraught boys.

  Below is a log of our real-time reactions as we watched. Remember that there may be spoilers for any part of SPN’s 15-season run here. Note also that the nature of our conversation is adult and thus it may contain adult language and themes.

 [and we begin:]

  Lor:

cool. gross dudes.

  Mace:

  HA! YEP

  Lor:

maybe one of them will get a supernatural comeuppance

Mace:

  it’s just possible

  Lor:

juuuust maybe

  Mace:

snork

  Mace:

  EW

  Lor:

yeeeeah

  Mace:

  any nurse worth her salt wouldn’t react like that, I’d think

  Lor:

RIGHT?

  Lor:

especially if she's an ER nurse or ER triage. come on

  Lor:

oh when will these demons learn that you don't insult a Winchester's family?

  Mace:

  he’s using the Dean Voice

  Lor:

he IS

  Mace:

  right?

  Lor:

like, don't they have a demon bulletin board on Hell Commons, or something?

  Mace:

HAHAHAHA

  Mace:

  oooof. Dean’s face

  Lor:

YES

  Mace:

  the other other white meat

  Lor:

LOL

  Lor:

"I mean, obviously, I want to hunt some ZOMBIES"

  Lor:

"excuse me. no, no we're very smart"

  Lor:

"you done?" " "I think so"

  Mace:

HAHAHAHA DEAN

  Mace:

  he’s hopped up on zombie excitement

  Lor:

he is

  Lor:

people are really bringing the sarcasm to the boys today

  Mace:

  they really are

  Lor:

"DUDE I'm EATING"

  Mace:

  HAHAHAHA

  Lor:

"antiques roadshow surgery" omg Dean

  Mace:

  YAS

  Lor:

SAM WINCHESTER stop trying to make Dean go off his food. poor muffin has three weeks to live

  Mace:

  I’m gonna have to go with Laura on this one, Sam. Maybe lay off a bit.

  Lor:

ooooo, Sammy. now you really know you've been bad

  Mace:

  *SNORK*

  Lor:

gaaaaah the heart monitor in the watch

  Mace:

  right?!

  Lor:

RUFUS

  Lor:

oh Sam

  Mace:

YES

  Mace:

  and yeah

  Lor:

oh no fraught brothers

  Mace:

YEP

  Mace:

  poor sweet stubborn yahoos

  Lor:

RIGHT?

  Lor:

"Sammy, be careful" "you too"

  Lor:

you two numbnuts COULD just say you love each other. the world will not end if you actually say that to your brother

  Lor:

omg his little grin to the security camera

  Mace:

  SNORK YES

  Lor:

"don't ‘look man, me’"

  Lor:

and he immediately switches to sir

  Lor:

adorable

  Mace:

you know, if we were in the bunker, we wouldn’t ever let the fraught get so far. we’d sit them down and not let either of them go off on their own all poutypants

  Mace:

  YES

  Lor:

OMG Rufus's grin when Dean pulls out the scotch

  Lor:

YES

  Mace:

  YES

  Lor:

"because I know things"

  Lor:

I love him

  Mace:

  YES

  Lor:

"ain't you a bucket of sunshine"

  Mace:

  ooof. DEAN.

  Lor:

RIGHT?

  Lor:

(also, serious fuck 327. if someone has been told his whole life he's gonna die awful or turn into a hollow husk of a man, you DON'T HAVE THAT HAPPEN AT THE END)

  Mace:

  (RIGHT?!?!)

  Lor:

he'll do anything once

  Mace:

omg DEAN WINCHESTER

  Mace:

  HAHAHAHA

  Lor:

LOLOL

  Mace:

  SAMMY NO

  Lor:

RIGHT?

  Lor:

Sam, this is where you turn around and get out and come back later with Dean

  Mace:

RIGHT?!

  Mace:

  I can’t believe we have to yell at him about this sort of thing AGAIN

  Lor:

silly Stringbean

  Mace:

  He may need punishing

  Lor:

SNORK

  Lor:

why would anyone want to live forever if all they do is find people to take their parts so they can keep living forever? like, he's not even staying caught up on his reading or anything

  Mace:

  HAHAHAHAHA OMG LOR I WAS JUST THINKING THAT

  Lor:

OMG I LOVE IT

  Mace:

  yas

  Lor:

OMG turning on the light switch with the gun

  Mace:

  YES

  Lor:

also the pinning to t wall

  Mace:

YAAASSSS

  Mace:

  HE’S SO STERN

  Lor:

he IS

  Lor:

oooof he lying

  Lor:

*her

  Mace:

Yep

  Mace:

  i knew what you meant

  Lor:

you good. I know you generally speak Lor gibberish

  Mace:

  HAHAHA

  Lor:

"whaddya mean no?"

  Mace:

OH DEAN

  Mace:

  yeah

  Lor:

oh Sam

  Lor:

oh god eye stuff

  Lor:

behind the sofa

  Mace:

YUP

  Mace:

EWEWEW

  Mace:

  smarty dean

  Lor:

YES

  Lor:

"wakey wakey eggs and bacy" omg

  Mace:

  YAS

  Lor:

I don't get the mechanics of this ep. if he's immortal to the point he can get stabbed and it doesn't matter, why do his organs wear out?

  Mace:

  right

  Lor:

I’m not usually fussed about that kind of handwavey stuff, but this one bugs me for some reason? maybe bc Sam thinks they can save Dean with it?

  Mace:

  yeah

  Lor:

omg the screaming over the black screen

  Mace:

  YES

  Lor:

dang she is cold

  Mace:

yep

  Mace:

  it was so totally Dean’s idea to use the sex dolls

  Lor:

DEFINITELY

  Lor:

dang, Dean's kinda cold here too. not that I think there's anything he could do in three minutes

  Mace:

he kinda is

  Mace:

  i think him being hard on her is him being hard on himself here

  Lor:

ooooo yeah

  Lor:

also he has no idea WHY she killed her parents, so he thinks she's just a greedy person who makes deals to kill family for money

  Lor:

and we all know how that kind of thing would go over with him

  Mace:

yeah

  Mace:

  this is one of the places where his knee-jerk judgement makes him just a little less than perfect

  Lor:

yep

  Lor:

which is part of why he's such a good character

  Mace:

  just a little, though

  Lor:

only a SMIDGE

[ivoirloup]

I'm on S3 x 15, you know when we met Rufus (🖤) and discover the story of Bella.

Can we just talk about the fucking scene ? When young Bella cry and his dad(? Probably) enter the room and just shut it ? You know he's gonna do something (beat her, rape her, other horror name it). You know it. But Dean doesn't. And juge her because of her deal. And her killing her parents.

Because for him, it's criminal to kill family. He thinks you can do better without kill it. You can found a commun ground and build on it.

But Bella didn't. Because she didn't have anyone. Dean had Sam, Bobby. She was alone.

And Bella can't understand how Dean can make a deal for Sam. Because she didn't understand family. She didn't understand friend, bouding. She never had it.

And i'm so sad for her. And for Dean. But mostly for her because in her last moment, her last connection just didn't care, didn't forgive her, make her feel like crap and hell.

She die, knowing she's alone. Alone and lonely. And she hates it. And she feels she deserved it.

And never anyone will know why she did it. Never anyone will forgive her, tell her it's gonna be ok, she safe now.

Never.

She die. Alone. Unforgiven. Lonely. Hated.

I'm sad for her.

[lorewhoresam]

3x15 Time On My Side where Dean refuses to drink the immortality potion to get out of his deal because he'd "rather go to hell thn become a monster" would be soooooo much better if Gordon was still alive and living as a vampire. Either he's leaning into the vamp thing and Dean has more reason to refuse, or he doesn't drink blood and Sam has more arguments pro. up the stakes of the conflict!!! in my head he's alive.

[angelicjackles]

there's so many layers to their dynamic as brothers, and I'm obsessed with it. but a lot of the time it is shown very much from Dean's perspective so it paints him in the right and shows Sam in a bad light, which i hate because there's so much depth to most of Sam's decisions and choices but they paint it as Dean's the older brother so he takes over, and so many people automatically side with Dean being right because they see it from his side. i don't agree with either of them getting unfounded hate for the way they are together.

it is inherently toxic and co-dependent of them but what do you expect when you grow up the way they did and spend pretty much 24/7 together under the circumstances of their life. of course they step on each others toes and feel protective, obsessively so at times, but the layers between the way they view and treat each other is fascinating to me, the way it changes so drastically from episode to episode depending on what in particular was happening. old mindsets slip back in and old habits creep back up.

that being said there were absolutely times i wanted to smack both of them upside their stupid heads. or y'know, smack the writers more often than not for their interpretation of the boys.

i love them as brothers, i love the dynamic they have together even if it pisses me off at times with the way they were written. there could have been so many things done differently to show the complex layers underneath every scene, but ultimately there was reasoning behind each of them, even if it was Dean's own reasoning, it was still reasoning that explains it better.

Sam did deserve more trust and respect in many moments, and i firmly believe that Dean knew that but was unable to let go of the reigns in the way that Sam wanted in order to truly put him on a level playing field and treat him like an equal more often. Sam deserved that but Dean's always been on this pedestal of being a self-imposed (or John forced) protector, and that overrode everything, even if he was doing more harm than good in the way he treated and viewed Sam at times.

How do you think we got here?
