I'll go first....

Bela Talbot, a thief...

No...

"A Great thief" I hated her at first but started loving her later...

She was witty and gorgeous 😍😍😍 wish she stayed for few more seasons. 😢

 

How do y'all feel about Dean going behind Sam's back to kill the girl that had saved his life in the past by stabbing her own mother to death?

I mean, granted she is a kitsune that feeds off pituitary glands, but she was a mortician and making it work by feeding off the dead.

As she told Sam, she only needed to take a couple fresh ones for her dying son and swore off any future slayings.

Doesn't it seem a bit hypocritical of him, considering his friendship with Benny the vampire later on and expecting Sam to just be okay with that, not to mention subversive (he couldn't even bring Amy up to Sam during the next episode where he's on trial by Osiris for all the guilt in his heart)? Also, there was never a follow-through with her son who claimed he was going to kill Dean.

Instead we got Cole 😂

 

Season 1 episode 22, this dialogue hit me.

Dean: "He’d be furious."
John (Possessed by Azazel): "What?"
Dean: "That I wasted a bullet. He wouldn’t be proud of me, he’d tear me a new one. You’re not my Dad."


I'm sure this fact has been done to death, but the fact that Dean, who as he put it "knows his father better than anyone else alive" recognized the fact John was possessed because Azazel-in-John's-body told Dean "I'm proud of you" is absolutely heartbreaking.

And there are so many other moments in the end of S1 episodes where you see how demeaning John's language is to them, and Dean especially--

"Touch up your car. It's starting to rust. I wouldn't have given you the damn thing if I knew you were going to ruin it."

"I'm not a huge fan of your new tone."

"You disobeyed a direct order."


I understand that John had to do what he had to do to ensure Sam and Dean survived in a world where he had good reason to believe monsters were after his children and himself.

Some of what he did was harsh but somewhat understandable if John imagines himself living in a somewhat apocalyptic wild-west type world with unchecked evils coming fro them.

But there's absolutely no reason why, in that scenario, he couldn't have ensured he told his boys he was proud of them, praised their accomplishments, ensured that they knew even when they made mistakes, they were still valued and loved.


Moments like this make me understand why at times Dean and Sam both say incredibly harsh and hurtful things to one another.

John was neglectful at best and abusive at worst in his language towards them.

They emulated that sometimes in their treatment of each other, but at least both Dean and Sam seemed to know how to apologize--something John was pretty garbage at.

 

Jensen said that he does not know if they will ever be able to hang it up, so a chance to start again exists.

He talked about parallel universes and resurrections.

He said that if they are going to come back they want the full cast. Now that they have Jack as God anything is possible

 

Does It Bother You? 🤔

He seems loving as crowley.

Gadreel was a normal angel but nerfed after the Fall, yet he still Obliterated a diner full of 4-6 demons by himself.

Angels still could've been a threat after they were nerfed at having 1/3 of their power after thenfall.

 

Both equally hilarious but I gotta go with Dean with ghost sickness

 

All of the facial expressions and incredibly cheesy jokes are unmatched.

Misha was definitely having a lot of fun.

 

So their three strengths:

-"Invulnerability" -Shapeshifting/Mind Melding -Physical strength that surpasses any monster Sam and Dean have faced

Their weaknesses:

-Borax is basically more powerful holy water to them -Decapitation immobilizes them -They don't have humanity or human creativity -Their viciousness causes them to get caught easily


Compare them to demons, who can do anything they can do, without needing to clean up a body afterwards.

They're also literally just suped up humans, they have that creativity that Leviathans are jealous of, in fact, their creativity is encouraged in terms of torture, and it's been shown that some demons train up psychopaths to prep them to torture in hell.

Point is, demons have the things Leviathans have and don't have, that they want.

Demons may be weak in the fact that most lower level demons will walk straight into a devil's trap, but it's also really worth mentioning that a witch was able to completely paralyze a leviathan for a day, and take its super strength away for several, all of this without a single incantation (He didn't even know what a leviathan was either).

Witches just siphon off some power from demons, so lower level leviathans have no shot against more powerful demons.

Lower Leviathans can't do anything against higher demons, but lower demons can just get a bucket of cleaner and do the ice bucket challenge with whatever Leviathan they come across (Then rip their heads off with brute strength).

Same thing goes with monsters too, which are BY BLOOD, supposed to be significantly weaker than Leviathans.

All they need is some Borax and their brute strength to take out most Leviathans, and this isn't even talking about Alphas which are the fastest and strongest things we've seen in the series, next to Eve (Who's literally supposed to be the younger sibling of Leviathans)

Idk if it's European, but there's also Sygic Maps

Welcome, also there is a link to the Community in the post, just FYI.

Im honestly surprised that nobody has ever considered using Matrix to potentially create a Discord clone that runs off of Matrix.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that diagonlemmy feels somewhat dead?

Like, all of the posts only have one upvote, and the whole community just doesn't feel very active, at least IMO.

I actually originally applied for an account on leaky_cauldron, but I never got a response back, so instead I decided to make one on Literature.Cafe

[–] Teknevra@literature.cafe 7 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (2 children)

I completely understand where you're coming from.

I happen to be Queer myself (MtF, Pansexual, although all of my life, I have been forced to present as Male.)


Where I am coming from is:

1.) As the other commenter mentioned, there's no monetary value for JKR for there to be HP-Themed communities.

2.) By making Fics, "non-canon" pairings, Fan-Art, etc., YOU control the initiative.

I.e, you want Harry to be gay, make him gay, want him to be trans, BAM!, now he's Trans.

You can make him Gay /Straight/Black/White/Fat/Slim/Good/Evil/etc.

Same thing with all of the other characters.

Don't let JKR win by ruining it for you.

3.) It's not like I set up a requirement that everyone who joins has to donate to a gofundme for JKR, Joining and participating is COMPLETELY free.

IDK, just my two cents.

@threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works

Would you like for me to mod this account, and then later on you could potentially mod yourself if you ever decide to make a Literature. Cafe Account?

[–] Teknevra@literature.cafe 5 points 6 months ago

We should all make sure to call her Madam President

[–] Teknevra@literature.cafe 0 points 6 months ago

That's just your opinion, though.

Plenty of other people like it.

I guess, I was just mostly basing these communities off of their respective subreddits.
