#the final days were upon us #and then it was thursday again

shoutout to the lord of the rings lighting directors. bold move to let the audience see what's going on in nighttime scenes. i miss that.
isnt it insane that merry and pippin spent like the span of weeks apart in different countries and immediately made new besties whose lives they save in their final battles. like merry strikes the blow on the witch king that lets eowyn kill him and pippin pulls faramir out of denethor's pyre. and then eowyn and faramir ended up marrying each other. isn't that wild. were merry and pippin conspiring in the houses of healing like hey i think my new best friend would be great with your new best friend how quickly do you think we can get them to fall in love. was there great hobbit cacophony when faramir kisses eowyn on the ramparts. i think yes.
their first kiss, dean is the one to lean in and press his lips to cas’, somehow quick yet lingering at the same time. dean pulls back just as fast as he leaned in, eyes immediately blinking open and darting across cas’ face, looking for some kind of sign or expression to read what cas is thinking. but cas’ eyes are still closed, his lips still parted where dean’s had just been pressed moments ago. “cas?” dean whispers, a flash of doubt clawing down his spine. cas shakes his head, eyes squeezing shut tighter as he murmurs, “if I don’t open my eyes, I can pretend that was real for another moment,” and dean’s heart lurches in his chest as he reaches up, tracing his thumb across cas’ lower lip as he replies softly, “real, cas,” and then he closes the gap to trace his lips against cas’ in another gentle kiss with a tender murmur, “real”
dean and cas having an argument about something in the middle of a case and cas warns dean he needs to move and dean stubbornly crosses his arms and glares at cas, muttering, “not fuckin’ happening.” cas moves forward and snags dean by the waist, hoisting dean up in one smooth motion that happens so fast dean doesn’t even see it coming until he’s manhandled and caught up in cas’ arms. dean wants to argue and get defensive, yet all that happens is a soft shaky gasp falls from his lips and his hand wraps around cas’ bicep, and all dean’s mind can do is think ‘oh god oh god oh god, he’s so strong’
I posted these thoughts last season
and just the actual idea of Crowley crashing on Jane's couch just knowing her as a spy and not a novelist accidentally becoming the inspiration for P&P is hilarious meanwhile Aziraphale is somewhere hanging on edge for the latest publication to come out
Okay this might be my favorite theory ever.
Forget foreshadowing and the meaning of whatever minute thing we fixate on in some random scene (though I accept that a great many of those things aren’t that minute, and the given scene isn’t necessarily that random.)
Just the idea that Crowley inspired P&P and that Aziraphale went nuts for his own love story without even knowing it. I fucking LOVE this idea so hard.
