ht_murraySo, I didn't watch last night's epi. It's sitting on my DVR where it will likely stay. I read enough commentary to know I don't have it in me to deal with that level of angst at the moment. But, I do have thoughts and a wee crack theory. Actually, it has to be crack, because any of the logical options for where this is going to go kinda make me regret I ever started watching, so here's to hoping for crack!
Um, first, anyone else get the idea that Sam=Impala circa the end of ELAC? I like symmetry and all, but it kinda loses the impact when it's sorta the exact same thing happening twice with nothing having gotten better between instance A and instance B, but then, I can't write to save my ass, so we'll leave it to the professionals. :/
Okay, quick crack theory about speculation fic. Dean said Sam is like him. Famine said Dean is dead inside, empty. Alistair said, Dean left part of himself in Hell. Ash said, soul mates share an afterlife, meaning their souls meet up on the other side. So, what if Dean did leave something in Hell, and when Sam jumped in the Pit, his soul was drawn out of the cage to the part of Dean that's still down there. The cage has no means to hold a body, so the body came back, but not the soul. And somewhere there's a little bit of Dean and a little bit of Sam waiting to be yanked out of Hell, and when they are yanked out, BOTH brothers will be fixed. Cuz, dude, I need some fixin'. I also will throw out that I think the part of Dean that's still in Hell is the part that allows him to feel joy, because I don't think we've seen any moments of actual happiness from him since he came back, and it makes sense that Alistair would notice Dean doesn't get any joy out of torturing him, right? After all, a real monster would enjoy that.
Okay, that's all I have.
I hope I warned enough that no one was spoiled by this post. Now, I have to leave for work a half hour early, because the damned Aggies think they're allowed to play at home today. *grumbles*

Date: 2010-10-31 02:09 am (UTC)I was already thinking about the soul thing for Sam (because of the whole body AND soul going into Hell). And I was hoping the soulmates thing would come into play again to help Sam. But it never occured to me that a piece of Dean might still be in Hell too!! (And it would make more sense that Famine couldn't effect Dean if there was something spiritually/supernaturally wrong with him-rather than him just being clinically depressed). I really hope that they write this. It makes so much sense!! And it will fix both boys! I'm even more excited now!!
