To me it's not sexual tension driving those scenes between Dean and the Darkness. , Dean looks scared, horrified, fascinated by Amara. And she seems as fascinated back, possessive, but not in any kind of emotional way. She's a liar, I think, who believed she had Dean eating out of her hand, until she made the mistake of threatening Sam. I think he would have let her go without making a move but she messed up. Not omnipotent, then? She looked upset…shocked, maybe. So, if she is god's sibling, there was no love lost between them. I'm thinking that sister is a word that Metatron used because we don't have a word for what god and Amara are to each other. Certainly more complex a thing then we can understand.

In fact, all along, while people moaned and groaned about the angels and their motives, I thought that the entire story was couched in terms that the Winchesters (and us) understood. That though they saw the story as literally brothers and sisters, that Zachariah ran the show like a super powered, super amoral Mad Men season, what they were seeing wasn't as simple as it seemed.

Just like everyone else, I loved the juxtaposition of Amara walking down a street full of snacks while that song plays in the background…also, creepy virgin Airline owner guy was stalking her….

Hokey smokes! You know, I never really went there in fandom's heyday, mostly because I was afraid and way too delicate a flower back then. Now, I'm a hardened old broad and my skin is as thick as a rhinoceros' hide so I can play without suffering horrible embarrassment squick.

Anyhoo (things I do instead of writing), ask me why the folks who actually sound calm and reasonable to me get shot down like they're trying to strafe an orphanage full of little tykes and adorable kittens. My eyes were like this: (o.o) !! Wow! Such violence! Such anger! I swear, the commenter sounded so reasonable, so respectful of both actors of a certain show, while also trying to express a personal opinion in a non-inflammatory way and gosh, that was just the match to the fire as far as certain folks were concerned. Again, me all aghast and goggling.

It's like watching a slow-motion train wreck, with the train being manned by rabid, teeth-gnashing, vitriol-shrieking hamsters. It's pretty entertaining. Wow...it feels good to reveal this side of myself. All shallow and stuff.

Watch this space for more wallowing. :D :D :D
