[soullessjack]

another tally on the “things about jack that have been almost erased by the baby au” is how genuinely fucked up and weird and scary and violent and horrifying he is. the body horror of his existence is so. Palpable.

he looks human, but he still fundamentally is not human, and the thing that separates him from being human or belonging or being normal and loved and accepted without strings attached is his own bloodline. his own family, his own father. the blood that runs through his veins is the blood of the devil and he wasn’t fed it like Sam. the anger and rage and capacity for violence inside him isn’t an ancient curse like it was for Dean. It’s just who he is. It’s his neurology. Jack enters a guilt/grief-induced psychosis so bad he starts hallucinating his own dead evil father who proceeds to say “I’m in your head, your DNA,” and goes on about how Jack’s place with the only chosen family he ever cared for is that of their little pet monster who’s only kept around to kill things for them. And this is his subconscious, remember, these are all Jack’s own thoughts being given a hallucinatory voice.

When jack is first born he doesn’t even register that he’s not a full human. It’s not until he catches dean telling the sheriff that he’s a Nephil and gets stabbed all the way through his entire heart to the hilt of the angel blade and survives, that he realizes he’s Not Normal. Jack stabs himself 18 times with “grim determination,” dedicated to making a wound stay open in his body, but nothing happens. He doesn’t know what any of this is, but he knows it’s dangerous and he’s seen firsthand what he can do, because he sent the sheriff careening backwards into glass when he didn’t mean to do anything more than push her away. He tells Dean he will hurt someone again [whether he means to or not]. And he tells Sam, using his powers is like breathing; it’s a subconscious, physical, neurological part of his system that he cannot (currently) consciously control or stop.

He’s literally a living weapon. These powers of his that hurt people are akin to breathing. His violence and his evil is deep seated and runs through his heart and bleeds out of him. But he can’t bleed the evil out. He can’t escape what he was born into or what keeps him alive. He can’t even live without this nuclear power that ostensibly others him from everyone forever. He’s foaming at the mouth and seizing and fainting and bleeding and going into total systemic failure and subsequently dying as a human because he just isn’t human and he can’t live as one even if he wants to, even if that is a part of him it still isn’t the only part of him. The other half that makes him untrustworthy and violent and angry and dangerous and nuclear and evil and feared and hated is the one part he is left dying without.

His body dies a first time because it couldn’t live without its own hereditary disease, he died as a human and goes to human heaven and sees and rekindles with his human mother, the part of him that he wants to be and loves but can’t exist as. He’s brought back but now he’s a time bomb, a nuclear reactor internally melting down. he’s a weapon, but he’s alive because he was born as a weapon, and neither of these things were his choice.

and then a second time his body dies because he was only registered as a threat with no humanity. his eyes are burned out of his skull and instead of heaven with his mother, instead of humanity, he wakes up in the pitch black abyss where other nonhumans go when they die, then he’s brought back and he’s a weapon for the third time. He’s a living bomb, a collapsing black hole, and he has to eat human hearts ripped straight from the chest to keep his bomb body alive and ready for detonation, ready for collapse. He’s so far from human, further than he ever wanted to be, further enough to make his deep rooted fear a reality that he’s too suicidal to bother rebuking. Why rebuke the truth? The absolute truth that the devil, the evil of all things is in his blood and he is evil and he was a born weapon whose body exists to destroy and kill and not even his own love or will can stop it.

He is a gun that doesn’t want to be a gun and hates that his body is made to shoot and kill, but he has no choice in being anything else but a gun. He cannot ever be good, he was never good to begin with, he was just malfunctioning, glitching, experiencing an error and virus and flaw that he wishes was his entire programming. His eyes glow yellow like the corrupted Star Wars Sith and Rosemary’s Baby and a whole slew of evil things that are evil and meant to be rejected. When he gets angry, people stare at him as if he’s a cornered animal, because that’s what he is to them. To both sides of the equation, he is an animal. A foreign creature, a thing, he’s not human enough to be human and he’s not angelic enough to be an Angel. He’s some weird mixture that nobody can understand or accept. He’s unpredictable and violent and wild and born that way and only in his subsequent domestication, only in the extension of personhood and humanity can he be deemed worth loving. He’s like a dog, detrimentally loyal, old yeller going rabid while saving his family and having to be shot in an act of mercy. Barking and biting at people who might hurt his loved ones and killing them as an act of love. Sam wanted Nick to burn so Jack burns Nick and that’s why Jack says they would be grateful. He did what Sam wanted. Same for the other biblical killings. He’s the cat sinking its fangs into rodents and birds. Leaving the punctured corpses on the doormat as a gift, I did this for you because I love you, don’t you love me too?

I haven’t eaten well in the past two days does this click click anyone’s boom. Saliva

[shallowseeker]

Why is Dean so stressed in 14x17?

(We know why.)

Ahem:

The visuals of this are pretty goddamned painful

And WTF is UP with these foreshadowing lyrics??? soft country music -> Jackie Stewart's Maybe Tomorrow>

We had a quarrel Like lovers do Still I can't make my heart Believe we're through For I still love you With all my heart And life means nothing When we're apart Maybe tomorrow When comes the dawn Maybe the dark clouds Will all be gone Maybe tomorrow The sun will shine Maybe tomorrow You'll still be mine

etc etc

This could be foreshadowing...OR maaybe Dean n' Cas actually had a smallish weird fight about Cas leaving again.

I mean, Cas is lying about a ton of stuff (Empty deal, Felix the snake, searching for God), and Dean is pretty good at pinging that, even when he tries to swallow it down and overlook it.

///

And Dean?

Dean is so stressed out that not only do Mary and Jack notice, but they're taking actions to calm him down/cheer him up

Sam prooooobably knows why Dean is unhinged, so he quickly volunteers to get outta Dodge and pick up the food. (I feel ya, Sammy. You are me in this moment.)

Meanwhile, Dean struggles to win Mouse Trap. We get a closeup of the foot kicking the "audience" eye. NOTE that in the actual game, it's just a plain silver ball.

Or at least that's how I remember it and have always seen it. If anyone know of a version that was released with an eye, hit me up.

Otherwise I'm gonna assume it was completely intentional, and Dean is trying to have a normal family game night without "us" interfering.

<Cue Dean screaming over sucking at the game>

He's, uh, wound pretty tightly today, actually.

We can see that from Jack and Mary's following convo. Seems like today, they're the ones tag-teaming to mollify Dean.

(Dean, who is stressed because Cas is AWOL and acting cagey and probably not answering his phone again.)

JACK: "I thought this was supposed to relax him."

Ahahaha, oh Mary. "Let's give Dean a little game and he'll relaxies and be nicies to us!"

Oh yea.

Cas definitely isn't answering his phone, and everyone is tiptoeing around Dean because of it.

///

Tragedy: Jack & Mary get along really well!

Just gonna point out that Jack is actually VERY comfortable with her in general.

He spent MONTHS with her at war. She was his advisor. Given that he ran away from TFW a few weeks after his birth, much of his formative parenting was done by Mary Campbell Winchester, not Sam and Dean (nor Cas)!

She checks in with Jack, but she doesn't push. Result? Genuine, blunt Jack emotions:

(MARY is thinking "FUCK, first my oldest son is acting like a basket-case and screaming at a toddler's game and now my grandson is acting like this. FML. Cas, come home now. Plz for the love of all that is holy.")

Tragically, because of the trust and comradery between them, Mary offers something the others don't: permission to vent.

(MARY: Jack, if you wanna talk shit about everyone, I love shit-talk. )

Funnily enough, Mary doesn't use a lot of words here. It's a partially silent communication. "If you ever wanna vent..." (gentle head tilt like, 'y'know.')

JACK: You're here. I know. (silent appreciative looks, then Jack makes a head motion like 'c'mon let's go').

And ACTUALLY.

Jack reacts genuinely well to that. He and Mary...get each other. He feels comfortable telling her what he really thinks.

See, I think this emotional permissiveness that we see with Mary is devastating. Jack tends to get more genuinely irritable and say what he thinks with Mary (also Dean n' Cas). Even when he's soulless and working hard to "perform" soulfulness, his real irritation slips out with her.

Tragically, that means she was probably always more risk with Jack. Because he's more comfortable throwing his real, ugly emotions at them.

(Sam on the other hand is more cerebral and perhaps at times...unintentionally distant because it's all so eloquent, careful, scripted.)

///

DEAN: (swallowing his nerves and trying to be cheerful and teasing) All right! Winchester game night is a go! Soon as Sammy gets back with two double-pepperoni meat blasters...and a pineapple.

Jack seems appreciative of the banter here. He doesn't wanna be pushed right now.

///

Dean is weird when Sam doesn't pick up his phone right away

When Donatello lands in Nick-shaped peril, Dean tries to call Sam. ONCE. And it gets an...out-of-proportion reaction from Dean.

(It's also...a lot like John's voicemail in Phantom Traveler. "This is John Winchester. I can't be reached. If this is an emergency, call my son, Dean. He can help.")

He's prickly:

SAM: "You've reached Sam Winchester. If this is an emergency, call my brother."

DEAN: Sam's not answering his phone. This whole damn town's a dead zone.

That's...not exactly true, as least what we've see so far in the series? They make calls from the bunker a lot.

*coughs* This lends some credence to the fact that his prior stress (the stress that Jack and Mary were working together to help) is about his, uh, phone. Phone calls. Phone calls not being answered, even.

READ: This is about Cas. Who hasn't been answering his phone. And Dean? Dean rationalizes that maybe his calls aren't landing because of where he is.

///

There's some truth to Dean's woes/anxiety. When Cas leaves, bad things tend to happen. And hey, they happen when Cas is there too, sure, but with Cas there, Dean can't help but feel more resilient, more equipped to take on whatever-it-is.

///

But yeah, it's looking like Dean and Cas maybe already had a little, reserved/restrained fight prior to Jack killing Mary. Dean was acting...really weird. Forced.

supernatural s14e17 game night (w. meredith glynn)

can't complain about donatello being back, i always liked him. but not if they're just gonna kill him off quickly, as they are wont to do in these last couple seasons

MARY Um, it will-- I hope. I just thought it would be nice to stay in for a change. You know, this was his favorite game when he was little. How about you? Feeling better?

ah yes because not just a childhood favorite game, but a 4 year old's favorite game :p

reminding us jack is acting soulless in the lying liar way

ANAEL The Winchesters-- they don't know you're here, do they? CASTIEL Why do you say that? ANAEL Oh, I don't know, just a general reek of ill-conceived lone-wolf desperation.

good one

SAM I should be there with you. DEAN It's fine. SAM No, it's not.

hear, hear sammy

DEAN Ancient Hebrew. What the hell? Sammy sounds stressed. MARY It's not just Sam. It's Jack… it's you. I just wish there was something that I c-- DEAN Hey. You're here, okay? You're here. MARY But I should've been here more. But I know how I am. I can be closed off… and hard. DEAN Yeah, well, that's where I get it from. MARY Listen. I just need you to know… I'm grateful. For every day I get to spend with you and Sam.

mushy music swells. *squints* that's... foreboding

it's really some kind of gift how jay gruska's music can make me roll my eyes. what is it! the little action music as mary and dean approach donnie's house, ugh.

no matter how much i like his actor i am exhausted with the machinations to keep him around

DEAN Whoa! Hey. Hey! Not now. Okay? Not yet.

i like it. let the angry sam out of the bag. i'd seen gifs of this and thought it was lucifer, so that finally answers that question. wonder if yet will ever come to pass. way this show goes, guessing not

the way dean stiff armed sam and he bounced back tickled me. and bringing out some of the feral sam. he's like i AM going to take out some of my guilt and feelings on the murdering murderer i feel responsible for releasing!

SAM Donatello's in this because of me. A police officer is dead because of me. I'm the one who let Nick go, I'm the one who… What was I thinking? MARY You thought he deserved a chance. SAM Yeah, well, he didn't. MARY Sam, look at me. Nick's choices are his. Just his. You didn't know th-- SAM That's not an excuse. MARY No one's making excuses, but-- You gave him a chance because you felt for him… because you're a good man. You are. It's one of the reasons I'm so proud of you.

got a little much there at the end but yes PLEASE we don't need to pile on the guilt over this. and man, padalecki has been hitting it out of the park when it comes to these one-on-one's with the parents. he brings such a different dynamic

NICK Everybody's a monster. Even your three dads-- how many innocent people you think they've killed?

literally never getting over that they're regularly all referenced as his dads.

ANAEL No, you're not. You're doing this because you're afraid. Because in your mind, it'd be easier to call God than to tell Sam and Dean Winchester the truth. CASTIEL The truth? ANAEL Jack's soul is gone, Castiel. And there's nothing you can do about it. Look. I don't want to say all that and hurt your feelings, so…what do you say we call it a night?

reminds me a bit of the type of dialogue written for midge on the marvelous mrs maisel. and what a burn

LOL what! another samulet

DEAN Look, you try anything funny, Sammy's gonna shoot you. Anything happens to me-- NICK Wait. Let me guess. Sammy's gonna shoot me. SAM Yeah, to start.

definitely do not want to be in sam's line of fire if something happens to dean

SAM No. No. Lucifer's dead. He's in the Empty. NICK Yeah, and he's awake… and with the help of your little prophet friend, I was able to have a convo with him, and he told me how to bring him back. DONATELLO!LUCIFER It won't be easy. You'll have to prove yourself. The Winchesters will be a problem. But you can use that, twist it… find a way to get to my son. His blood. You need his blood. NICK Come on, Sam. Nobody stays dead anymore. You know that. All you need is a little elbow grease, some new friends. Where you think I got that angel grace? Who do you think hid me after I carved up that cop? Demons. Yeah. They want Lucifer back almost as much as me. So, thanks.

okaaayyyy. could this be any more convoluted?

sammy. jack's got wings and knows how to heal people, couldn't he just pop over?

empty!terminator's got blobby wings now

SAM You-- You always put-- You always put me first. DEAN No, no. Shh, shh. Come on. Come on, man. SAM Your whole life…

i am not crying over this!

dean's reaction to sam being basically brought back from the brink of death yet again... oof.

so beautiful. guessing she's not long for this earth

Im at the episode Jack ‘evaporate’ mary and like how is it his fault when she kept yelling at him in his face seeing he is distressed why didnt she try to calm him down instead or i dunno step back a bit knowing he is dangerous and something could happen

And then im forced to watch goodbye episode knowing that after they got out of apo world mary rather went away with bobby then spend time with their sons nah I just hate this so much brrr s14 aint my favorite for sure i dont like this storyline creates so much break which i guess was the point but still brrr my bb jack still tries his best even soulless to bring her back anyway why are you so angsty dean ?he is trying

Mary killed(even humans) and like Nick deserved it come on finally he is gone im not a Luci fan or whatever that story line was im glad he is gone the character was overused sometime it was okay but otherwise no i dunno thanks for bb Jack tho

Anyways i think Chuck wrote the drama to come ‘save the day’ in last ep then we learn he is enjoying it and bam s15 starts with a bang i love the finale tho so dramatic nice set for s15 (hate the angsty dean chuck def write in more the anger more then actually was because he wouldnt just put gun in sams face like that)

Anyway s15 soon! May the pain begin!

#spn 14x17 #mary got chance to be back and didnt really try to connect with her sons so bye im not that sad #i would be if she was shown more you know around having the movie nights or such so id like her character i dunno #also loke how is john in heaven #spn 14x18 #spn rewatch #sasankastuff

Game Night (14x17)

Okay, seriously, STOP HITTING SAM IN THE HEAD!!! His big beautiful brain is gonna turn to jello.

But also, I still hold that this storyline with Nick was masterfully done.

And then there is the ever present wonkiness with travel time in this show. So the ambulance is gonna take 20 min to get to Sam, so Mary says, "We're on our way." and heads out of the bunker with Jack. They're in the middle of fucking Kansas! are they right down the road or something? Like, wtf were you going to do, Mary?

Y'all, Y'ALL! Dean's reaction when Jack healed Sam... 🥺

And Mary really should know when to fucking lie. But I guess she hasn't had the experience with soulless people, but that was really the time to lie and just tell Jack that everything is fine. Or, idk, just back the fuck off when Jack asked her to back off???
