Evil That Walks Invisible, Ch. 5
Book One: In a Cursed Hour
Chapter Five: Allegiance
Summary: Sam and Dean meet another Men of Letters legacy in Los Angeles, and have a discussion about choices.
Length: 7400 words
For all that it’s massive and impossible and that there’s still zero sign of their dad, after a long and frustrating meander over six hundred miles of freeway, Sam has to give California this: it’s warm. Not that Dean seems to be appreciating it, of course.

Blind and Mute
Back in 2016 I offered to create thematic sets for some friends. My good buddy Zmediaoutletasked for ones where the focal character had their eyes hidden or cropped out by the framing. Since images fitting that exact description proved a bit thinner on the ground, at least in season 1, most of the ones in this particular set have only one eye obscured, or their mouth instead. In going back and…

Crowley’s Two

This looks like a shot from a heist movie, minus the rest of the heist team.

Episode: 12.17, “The British Invasion”
I have nothing profound or even vaguely interesting to say about these caps. I just love how vulnerable Dean looks like this–asleep on the table, not even the vaguest attempt at putting on a strong front. Defenses down in a way he rarely allowed in the days before he had a home.

Rating: G
Warnings/Tags: None, case fic, accidental vacation
Summary: In the wake of the events of “Thin Lizzie”, Sam and Dean follow a possible lead to Amara’s whereabouts.
Dean shoves his plate aside and spreads the paper out, flicking idly through the rest of the pages, and stops on the next-to-last page. “Huh. Maybe there is something to it.” His turn to fold the paper up and pass it back to Sam.
PLAGUE OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS AT WELLS STATE PARK, the headline reads.
“Huh,” Sam says.

HAMLET
There’s another: why may not that be the skull of a
lawyer? Where be his quiddities now, his quillets,
his cases, his tenures, and his tricks? why does he
suffer this rude knave now to knock him about the
sconce with a dirty shovel, and will not tell him of
his action of battery? Hum! This fellow might be

Portrait of Madame T

Episode: 3.06, “Red Sky”
Artist: John Singer Sargent
Title: Portrait of Madame X
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Year: 1884
The similarities are obvious–an elegant young woman with brown hair, dressed in a black evening gown that shows off the shoulders and decolletage, standing next to a table upon which she is leaning with her right hand.

The Realm of Books
The Realm of Books
Director: Eric Kripke
Cinematographer: Serge Ladouceur
Episode: 2.20, “What Is and What Should Never Be”
I like how the apparent source of light in this shot is the open pages; Sam is completely in silhouette except for the hand that’s in contact with the books. There’s a great sense of isolation, as if nothing exists outside of the books and whatever happens to be touching them.

Sanctuary

Cinematographer: Serge Ladouceur
Episode: 2.13, “Houses of the Holy”
Something about this makes it feel very much like a painting–perhaps it’s the blank backdrop of the gray wall. Or the filtering of the light through the window, the highlights on the woman’s hair and wrist and the folds of her blanket.
Regardless, it perfectly conveys the sense of peace that she…

Artist: Johannes Vermeer
Title: Woman with a Lute (De luitspelster)
Medium: Oil on canvas
Year: c. 1662-1664
It’s not a perfect match, of course–in the Supernaturalscreen cap the lighting is coming from behind the seated figure, meaning there’s only a little bit of light shining directly on Dean’s face,…
