Yeah, I know I said I was done talking about this weeks SPN but I've been kind of thinking about it all day
This episode seems to have made everyone cry. Not me, and I feel kind of bad about it. I mean I've never really liked Jo but she was pretty awesome in this episode and I liked Ellen a lot. And, don't get me wrong, I felt really sad when they died but it didn't make me cry.
Now I've thought about it none of the really sad moments in SPN actually made me cry. It's more the sort of tender bittersweet things that get to me. The two moments that immediately spring to mind are the scene in What Is And What Should Never Be where Dean is going off to find the Djinn and Sam gets into the car with him and says that even though they don't talk they're still brothers. The other one was in A Very Supernatural Christmas when Sam puts together a tree and some presents for Dean and they both know it's going to be his last Christmas but they try and act merry with each other anyway.
And now I'm left with this awful depressed feeling that's not going to go away any time soon because we've got no new episode for nine bloody weeks and that's what I need right now to take my mind off it. I can't read fic because any fic based around this episode is going to be depressing too, to do anything else would make light of Ellen and Jo's deaths and I don't want that either
*sigh*
I hate the show for making me feel this bad but at the same time I applaud Ben Edlund for writing an episode that has affected me this much.
Edit: And talking about it in comments made me cry so clearly it was a delayed reaction thing.
