Weekend Update
I love how our household spontaneously bursts into yelling:

"DEAN!"

"Sammy!"

"DEAN!"

"Sammy!"

Back and forth between adults and children, apropos of nothing. *snerk* Yes, we HAVE been re-watching Season 1 again lately, why do you ask?

And having done so... wow. SO much more emotion this time around, more visible because I watched them more back to back, I'd guess. Dean REALLY tries to pretend to be shallow--and he really SO isn't. Yeah, he makes fun of Sam for getting all touchy feel-y every now and again, but only when Sam initiates it. When Dean initiates it--which he does, far more often than Sam--he goes WAY out on a limb, with complete and total honesty. This is the guy who told Cassie the truth because he loved her--something Sam didn't even do with Jess. And this is the guy who only listens to cock rock and picks up chicks like a player? Oh, Dean, you're so transparent. Also? The only time Dean doesn't wanna talk about anything personal? Is when it's about HIM. If it's about Sam, they WILL talk about it, at Dean's urging. Funny, watching the episodes spaced apart as they aired (and not paying near as much attention), I had more of the impression of some the fic that I've read, which is where Dean is the closet feeler, who never talks about anyone's feelings, and Sam is the sensitive one, who talks about and cares about everyone's feelings. This is SO not true. Wow. I can't believe how backwards I had it, in fact. Okay, I have deeper thoughts, but I'll save those for another time when I'm more coherent.

Damn. Now I have to order Season 2. Why can't it be on sale?

Round up from the weekend: The comic book is closer to completion. I think I can finish it next weekend. I finished my Fluffathon story and posted it. Now I need to finish the B/A fic ljgould bid for, and the Faith/Dean fic that's been eating my brain. Oh, and make the other seven or so Dragon*Con posts and post pictures. I really over-committed myself for this month.

And speaking of which, back to the grind.

	Hee! I was just imagining the sound of your house. Yeah you're right about Dean. I've got to post my write up about him soon. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Oh, it's hysterical! The kids'll be sitting there, playing a video game and all the sudden one'll yell "DEAN!" and the other one will yell back "Sammy!" and they'll do this about 4 to 5 times each before subsiding back into silence. Or my husband, Dom, will be making dinner and yell "DEAN!" for no apparent reason, causing me or the kids to yell back *L* This all started because of Dom(good natured-ly) making fun of the way Jared yells "Dean!" and how often he does it on the show, which led to a discussion of this, and then a discussion of how yelling "Sammy" just doesn't have the same propensity for drama *L*

Yeah, I really need to write up a detailed post, myself. First I have to get all my thoughts in order, though. *L*

I also need more SPN icons. And some J2 ones like yours.

Or at least the same deep-throated bellow ;>

There are a lot of gorgeous SPN icons to be found. Of course there's an even larger variety of Buffyverse ones, probably because there are so many different characters to make them of. I have, surprisingly, no Riley or Andrew icons at all and would like a good one of the Master and Mayor as well.

Hee! Right! And the way he says the "E" sound! *L* I can't even phonetically spell out how it sounds, but it's a very unique emphasis.

Well, Buffyverse, I've got plenty. But I'm only recently joining the fevered masses of SPN fandom (though I've been reading the fic for a long time), so I'm not sure where good places to look would be. Any suggestions? :)

	I've found mine simply through browsing the spnnewsletter links daily, but I do know that crack_impala and the newsletter sometimes contain art recs as well so that might be a starting point. Also, if you like some of my icons you can browse my userpics page and check out the creators as chances are they've got a variety of good batches up :> (Reply to this) (Parent)
