Buddy TV posted some spoilers (pretty much rehashed from some recent cast interviews), however, since I'm bored as hell and freezing my ass off I thought I'd make a prediction about said spoilers...

"Back to the Future II," the title of the 13th episode of Supernatural's fifth season, marks the first episode of Misha Collins' Castiel when Supernatural returns in January. It also marks the return of Julie McNiven's Anna.

With Supernatural briefly shifting its focus on its heavenly creatures, fans can look forward to a possible showdown between heaven's latest dropout Castiel and rogue angel Anna. Blaming Sam for jump starting the apocalypse, Anna plans an assassination plot and travels back in time to kill the young John and Mary Winchester to prevent baby Sam from being born.

The article does claim at the end Anna likely doesn't die in this episode. Although, if one has any sympathy for her at all, that almost seems worse with regard to Show. After all that? I don't imagine anything pleasant is remotely in store in her future, not after what's happened to pretty much everyone who've threatened, attempted to kill or killed Winchesters. If she doesn't die, she either gets away scot-free... or she suffers. Considering how Show too often treats it's female characters? I sort of know which way I'm leaning.

I also don't think it's Dean, Sam, Mary or Castiel she should really be worried about, but Lucifer. She threatens his vessel and also alters the future in such a way he might have never resurrected from the Pit?

Not to mention the fact she willingly fell to Earth... and Luci doesn't care for the "hairless apes" much.

Lucifer is going to be pissed off if he discovers her shenanigans and this seems almost set-up in such a way he's bound to. Too much of this impacts him directly for him not to.

So yeah, prediction.....


Part of the reason why I think this is going to happen is I could believe too easily Lucifer wouldn't just kill her quickly and painlessly, he'd want her to suffer. For what she tried to do and her strange, grotesque proclivities towards the "hairless apes".

Also - a more out-there reason - I did find it interesting Jo died the same way Dean did in NRFTW, torn up by a hellhound. Though Dean didn't die in "Croatoan", he was willing to die the same way Ellen did, by Sam's (who's practically like his son) side as Ellen died by her daughter's. Could be just crackspec, but this is coming off like a trend. One female character that died like Dean and the other emulating a way Dean was willing to die, perhaps another female character goes to Hell like Dean?

However, even if that did happen, it might not be all bad. Bear with me here, and I can't take the credit for this as it was sparseparsley's spec over on SPNP's post for these spoilers, but let's say Anna does get dragged to Hell. However, down there, she meets up with Meg. Anna convinces Meg that Lucifer isn't remotely working for her best interests and they team-up? Though I was never a big fan of Jo, I always preferred her interactions and dynamic with her mom. Unfortunately, they'd very likely share a mutual hatred of Castiel (Anna probably feeling betrayed by him two-fold post-5.13 and Meg not too happy he used her as meat bridge in 5.10). If this happens, they could be like a female version of GO's Crowley and Aziraphale. Kripke's certainly homaged Good Omens to the point Gaiman and Pratchett should probably sue his ass, wouldn't be shocked he took it a step further.

why don't you write fic?


i don't mean that in a "shut up with out crackpot theories and go write fic like the rest of us mortals" way, more in a "your ideas are always so awesome, you should totally write fic and i would totally read it" way.

IDK, my brain freezes up when I try to write fic. It takes me hours just to come up with a few mediocre paragraphs. Ugh.
