bowtrunckle: (Sam harness)
[personal profile] bowtrunckle
In celebration of Sam's favorite holiday and the fact it's THURSDAY, I thought I'd do this meme from [livejournal.com profile] sadelyrate. :)

The first bit has absolutely nothing to do with the fact we hardly have any left over Halloween candy in the house *wipes chocolate from mouth*.  

20 Things About Supernatural I Hold to Be My Own Personal Canon (UberSugarHiCrackalicious Part I)

1. Bobby can repel demons with the top of his head.
 
2. Dean discovers that the exorcism ritual can fit on the palm of his hand if written without any spaces and in lower-case letters.
 
3. John was in Vegas the whole time. 
 
4. Sam's jacket? Yeah, it’s magic (stain proof, fire proof, and able to self-repair punctures). It knows Mary and the YED. Oh, and it’s also Lucifer. 
 
5. Sam never eats when he’s emo, bitchy, annoyed, or thinking. Dean only eats when he’s horny, cocky, excited, or happy. Therefore Sam and Dean never eat at the same time except when crazy glue and Crossroads deals are involved because, you know, crazy glue and coming back from the dead makes both boys horny, cocky, excited, and happy at the same time.
 
6. The login for www.BustyAsianBeauties.com is samwinchester, password: isaredheadedwoman.
 
7. After Sam got lost/kidnapped for the fifth time, Dean bought an XXL Big ‘n Tall over-the-shoulder childproof harness with extendable leash.  *points to icon*
 
8. Dean wears thick-heeled boots for the arch support. Umm, yeah…
 
9. Ash thought other peoples' backwash added a nice nutty flavor with fruity overtones.
 
10. Sam really does have a thing for midget strippers.  
 
11. John didn’t even know Mary’s birthday. Early spring, November, or December it was all the same.
 
12. Santa really is evil. As is the tooth fairy (Dude, a thing that sneaks into a kid’s bedroom while they’re sleeping and steals TEETH?).
 
13. Dean’s password for everything is “magikfingerz4eva”.
 
14. Sam was only allowed to play goalie in soccer for the sake of the skin on his knees.
 
15. Dean likes peas. Sam likes carrots.
 
16. Even Special Agent Victor Henriksen has to look up how to spell his name on Superwiki.
 
17. Besides “Thundercats”, Sam's favorite show was “Rainbow Brite”, but not for the rainbows and unicorns. Really.
 
18. An economy-sized bottle of Nair is hidden with the spare tire just in case. 
 
19. Sam purposefully falls to the ground on his back, throws himself against walls with crowbars across his throat, and turns his back on possessed lamp cords because he likes violent breathplay with strangers and inanimate objects.
 
20. Despite being his mother’s maiden name and the assurances it was a boy’s name, the YED vowed to change his name as soon as he brought about the apocalypse.

*hurkie jump with jazz hands*
 
20 Things About Supernatural I Hold to Be My Own Personal Canon (BeenListeninto2MuchoPlaceboAngstMuzak Part II) 

1. To cope, Sam locked Jess away as his past. Madison reminds him of what his present is. When he lets himself hope for a future, Sam’s mind wanders to upstate New York.
 
2. The watch and leather satchel were gifts from Jess, the money clip from John
 
3. Sam donated blood. A couple times at Jess’s insistence for the blood drives at school and once to Dean after a hunt. He wonders if he’s not the only one immune to the demonic virus.
 
4. Dean always points his gun down so not to shoot Sam. Sam aims his gun up so he doesn’t accidentally hit Dean. 


Cap from [livejournal.com profile] justfreefallin.

5. There are other surviving generations hidden in plain sight.
 
6. Like Mary whispered every night before bed, angels are watching over them.
 
7. The abilities were inherent in all of the children, latent until their 22 year to keep them safe until they were old enough to defend themselves … if they’d survived.   They were to be protected at all costs from the others and from themselves. This is why Mary lingered until she saw her son alive and grown.
 
8. John knew the only way to keep Sam safe was to bring him back into the fold, so he abandoned Dean, knowing that Sam would come if Dean asked. John convinced himself that it’s not manipulation if it’s done out of love, but he never forgave himself for taking Sam away from the life he earned and making Dean be the one to do it.
 
9. Since the first day she saw Mary pregnant with the eldest, Missouri sensed the darkness following them. She has always known more than she says.
 
10. Like John, Dean has his own magpie nest of collected items and family mementos. He makes sure Sam will find it after he’s gone because, even though goodbyes aren’t a Winchester thing, he’s not John. Dean’s leaving Sammy with more than just a car to remember him by.
 
11. Sometimes Dean secretly wishes he was too young to remember Mary. He longs for the freedom to reinvent her like Sam used to do without reliving the memories of that night.
 
12. Azazel truly believed they were “his crazy kids”. 
 
13. Dreamwalking, time manipulation, telekinesis, precognition, mind control, and supernatural strength aren’t exclusive to Hell’s creatures. Neither is dissolving in flame.
 
14. When Bela’s eyes locked on the amulet that was all the incentive she needed; Dean Winchester was penned into her little black book of necessary goods.
 
15. Ruby’s path was hewn by her choices; she was made into what she is by her own hand. She tells herself that remorse is a human emotion.
 
16. There’s a reason why Meg possessed Sam for over a week before contacting Dean. She made sure Sam was awake for the “fun parts”. Sam never speaks of any of it. It’s the darkness he fears is now part of him. 
 
17. Destiny and choice coexist. Yellow irises may not be free choice. Evil is.

18. Dean will come to believe. Sam will find only doubt.
 
19. Bobby watches Sam closer than Dean knows. He wears the flask of holy water on his belt now.
 
20. In the end, it will be brother vs. brother.

*wibbles*

On a last note: OK, so we all knew about "The Shining" and "Playthings", but am I last the last person on the planet to see "The Ring" (US version 2002) and make the connection between it and "DitW"?!  Holy crap.  Has anyone read any meta on this?

The first thing I thought when watching DitW was, "OMG, he's drawing like the kid from the Ring!"

It similarities between the stories are so eerie that I'm POSITIVE other people have mentioned this somewhere. *wanders off in an aimless search*

I'm always looking at the boots to see how much heel they have on them every week.

Are you?! :) I also think wardrobe sticks Sam in those Puma shoes with no soles in an attempt to keep him "shorter". I wonder if they have to get his shoes specially made because his feet are so big (my brother-in-law is like that)? *sniggers* Why am I thinking about a stranger's feet?

Out of curiosity, what is National Writer's Month exactly? Is it for original short stories (novellas? novel?) or fanfiction or both? Is it genre specific?

I own The Ring on DVD but I haven't watched it in a while.

I just watched "The Ring" for the first time last night. The movie isn't due until Monday, but I'm not sure if I can make myself watch it again. *shivers* Horor movies give me nightmares, which is partially why I can't believe the only show I watch on TV is a drama/horror. lol Oh, Show, you are always the exception to the rule.

Maybe I should pop it in and then watch DitW.

You should do it. And then reaffirm to me that they are, in fact, similar and I'm not crazy! ;)

Not only is the situation set up roughly similar, there are other elements (the emphasis on water, the cabin, the drawings, significant objects, buried things) that seem to be very much the same. SPN seemed to imitate the shots through glass (mostly paned windows) and the red/orange sunlight. I'd have to watch "DitW" again and probably "The Ring" as well *shivers*, but I bet there are more similarities.

"OMG, Dean has new boots!"

LOL! That's awesome! The fun is in the details, isn't it? ;)

It's really challenging and fun, well, if you're into writing fics that is.

Sounds like it. ~2000 words/day for a final draft, that's a decent clip. :) What a good way to power through a fic or an original. Enjoy yourself! You can never have too much fic.

*glee*

I want a sugar high like that! Just... *adores* All the secrets unveiled and uncovered!

2. Dean discovers that the exorcism ritual can fit on the palm of his hand if written without any spaces and in lower-case letters.

We need this in fic format. ASAP.
Probably set between Nightshifter and Houses of the Holy...and Dean "bored out of (his) skull"... ;)

And then you go and break us with that other list... *wibbles, too*

*is so very conflicted now*

You know, a lot of these would make great fic prompts. :)

Sam: "Dude, what are you doing?"
Dean: *hunched over* "Nothing."
Sam: "What's that smell?"
Dean: *sniffs his black Sharpie marker* "Two-hundred demons about to go back to Hell."
Sam: *leans across his bed and sees the marker* "You know how many brain cells you're killing inhaling that?"
Dean: "I got plenty to spare."
Sam: "Put it away, it stinks."
Dean: "You're just jealous of my brain, Pinky."
Sam: "Dean."
Dean: *continues to play with the marker*
Sam: "Dean. I mean it." *throws one of Dean's balled up socks at Dean's head*
*wresting match ensues*
Sam: *sitting on Dean and out of breath with a streak of black permanent marker across his nose, pries open Dean's fingers and squints* "Is that ... Latin?"
Dean: *grunting and squirming* "Shut up, Sam."
Sam: "You copied the whole ritual. Why did you--? You don't know the exorcism ... Don't tell me you don't have it memorized?" *grins slowly and snorts* "You're making a cheat sheet."
Dean: *pushes Sam who is lauging off him* "Friggin' worked in high school."

I'm just thinking on how to cut down the panels...or perhaps I can make it a Special Edition and just tough the panel-length out:

PANEL 1:
Sam: "Dude, what are you doing?"
Dean: *hunched over* "Nothing."
Sam: "What's that smell?"

PANEL 2:
Dean: *sniffs his black Sharpie marker* "Two-hundred demons about to go back to Hell."

PANEL3:
Sam: *leans across his bed and sees the marker* "You know how many brain cells you're killing inhaling that?"
Dean: "I got plenty to spare."

PANEL 4:
Sam: "Put it away, it stinks."
Dean: "You're just jealous of my brain, Pinky."

PANEL 5:
Sam: "Dean."

PANEL 6:
Dean: *continues to play with the marker*

PANEL 7:
Sam: "Dean. I mean it." *throws one of Dean's balled up socks at Dean's head*

PANEL 8:
*wresting match ensues*

PANEL 9:
*wresting match continues*

PANEL 10:
*wresting match continues*

PANEL 11:
Sam: *sitting on Dean and out of breath with a streak of black permanent marker across his nose, pries open Dean's fingers and squints* "Is that ... Latin?"

PANEL 12:
Dean: *grunting and squirming* "Shut up, Sam."
Sam: "You copied the whole ritual. Why did you--? You don't know the exorcism ... Don't tell me you don't have it memorized?"

16. Even Special Agent Victor Henriksen has to look up how to spell his name on Superwiki.

Dude, I can't even begin to tell you how badly this cracked me up. :D

10.&19.? Sam, you dog. ;)

And the other list?

2. The watch and leather satchel were gifts from Jess, the money clip from John.

I adore that money clip fic!

9. They've forgotten Missouri entirely! *wants an explanation for her powers*

10.&18.&20. *wibbles*

And I'd totally do this meme if I only could come up with 20 things...

*twirls* Friday's here!

Bwah! I just realized how wrong sticking 10 and 19 together is! *banishes image from brain*

I adore that money clip fic!

So do I (obviously). It's going on my updated rec list with a big red star by it. :)

They've forgotten Missouri entirely! *wants an explanation for her powers*

You and me both. She'd make an awesome mother-type figure.

10.&18.&20. *wibbles*

Have I mentioned how much I love angst? The more manhurt, the better. :) I like seeing Dean do his one-trembling tear mansob.

And I'd totally do this meme if I only could come up with 20 things...

Just post as many as you have, even if it's not 20. Your flist still wants to read it.

Whoot! It's Thursday here! I read/saw spoilers for this episode ... it's going to be awesome!

Halloween and The Ring

LOL

I barely can remember The Shining. I never came across Playthings and I am a complete ignoramous when it comes to The Ring.

So yes, my dearest heart... I love those big eyes of yours because you are, to me, indeed, the only or last person on this planet who remembers about The Ring. Is that the one where Gandalf starred in? He he he he.

Happy Halloween and do have more sweets! Cuddles from Central London.

LOL! *snortlaugh* Yeah, he plays a 30-something petite blonde mother with a psychic son who watches a video tape and has a week to live. For this movie he went by the alias "Naomi Watts". *wink*

A and I watched "The Ring" on Halloween. So it's not a matter of memory really, it's more like I scared myself silly and am now incapable of forgetting the experience. I'm easily scared so I don't know what possessed me to watch that movie. And to make matters worse, A is out of town for the weekend and I'm home ALONE with my overactive imagination. The movie is also still here, and based on the premise of the movie (it's the actual video ... the physical thing ... that's cursed) that's enough to freak me out. *eyeballs the video sitting on the table*

Happy Halloween and do have more sweets!

Thank you! I'll eat a chocolate bar in your honor. :)

Oh! I got your e-mail. Good for you booking an indulgent afternoon out for yourself (at the RITZ no less!). You certainly know how to do things the right way. I'll be thinking about you and sending good thoughts your way. *extra hugs* I'll talk to you more over e-mail.

Sorry I'm getting to the post so late.

And laugh. #4, hehehe.

I lurk mostly - but the tribute to Ringu/Ring was really in Bloody Mary. The ghost's appearance, the way she moves, especially when she climbs out of the mirror -pure homage.

DitW reminded me more of the 2002 film of a the same name in the basis of the story being of a group of friends killing another person by accident or movies like I know what you did last Summer

Hi!

Thanks for the info. I'll have to check those other two movies out.

It seems like Kripke cuts and pastes borrowed horror elements into episodes so we get hybrid tributes. Psychic Lucas drawing pictures reminded me of "The Ring", and the way red was used in both seemed strangely similar. I agree with your about "The Ring" and "Bloody Mary". Even though I love mytharc centric episodes and demons are fun to watch, I do miss the EotW S1 episodes that launched the show.

I recently became completely addicted to [livejournal.com profile] encycl_of_weird. My favorite comic is Chick Flick Moment. When I read that the 'baby harness' panel was inspired by this post I had to come here and read it.

I don't necessarily agree with everything you wrote here, but I like the way you think and make some excellent points.

I hope you don't mind me friending your journal. I'm looking forward to reading your meta next season.

[livejournal.com profile] encycl_of_weird is terrific! I love [livejournal.com profile] kentawolf's art and sense of humor.

I don't expect everyone to agree with what I ramble about, but I'm glad you poked around and decided to friend me. :) Please feel free to stop by any time and say, "Hello." I look forwarding to (hopefully) getting to know you.

There are some group projects coming down the pipe, so there will definitely be more meta before S4!
