The return of
Throwback Thursday Flashback Friday! I have no idea what the difference between a throwback and a flashback even is, in meme parlance, but here at
hoodie_time they are synonymous.
If, uh, "flashback" counts as flashing back to like, three days ago. This post contains spoilers for 9x21 "King of the Damned"--but not beyond that.
This post is dedicated to what I've here dubbed "magichands Sammy," AKA moments where Sam calls Dean back from elsewhere, with varying degrees of success and increasing physical (and/or demonstratively emotional?) distance.
( 4x06 - Dean hallucinates Lilith and demon!Sam )( 8x02 - an interrogation triggers a Purgatory flashback )( 9x16 - first use of the First Blade + bonus )( 9x21 - 2 clips, descriptions contain spoilers )I'm hesitant to offer any commentary or comparative thoughts, because there are so many ways to link or unlink these scenes I want you all to be free to make your own associations (or dissociations, as the case may be!). But I'd love, love, love to hear your thoughts, questions, hopes, fears, etc. <3
If you're going to talk about 9x21 or any confirmed spoilers for 9x22/9x23, please remember to place your commentary under a spoiler cut! You can C&P the code here:
Can you think of any other moments you'd like to add? Or non-"magichands" scenes that are interesting to think about in conjunction with these? I'm sort of thinking about 6x01, with soulless!Sam and the djinn, but I don't actually remember how that happened. I think Dean may have just passed out. XP
