World Enough and Time

I made a fondue supper for maaseru and explodedteabag and we settled in to watch Supernatural again - episodes 2x10 ("Hunted"), 2x11 ("Playthings") and 2x18 ("Hollywood Babylon").

"Hunted" was by far my favourite of the three. Wonderful!

"Playthings", I'd seen before, when a friend was showing me episodes because they loved the show. I didn't much like the story then, didn't much like it now, but Sam and Dean were fine in it.

"Hollywood Babylon" was just plain fun, though a touch solipsistic.

A few days ago, maaseru bought a book of recipes for smoothies. I'd said I make smoothies for desert - something we haven't done for years, if ever. So when "Playthings" ended, maaseru and explodedteabag started watching "Hollywood Babylon" while I went into the kitchen to blend raspberry sorbet, bananas and milk. Because I was using the blender, I couldn't hear the television from the kitchen - probably couldn't anyway. So I walked into the living room with a smoothie in each hand, one for each of them, just in time to hear Sam Winchester say on the television, "Two smoothies, coming up."

When the episode ended, we took out the DVD and the television came on. It was Supernatural 4x01, "Lazarus Rising", just seconds before the arrival of Castiel. So of course we watched it again - my favourite bit of Supernatural ever. Those wings!
