I never saw her being named ‘Mary’ as a reference to Christianity’s Mary. I thought the choices of 'John’ and 'Mary’ were meant to drive home what a nice, normal, typical, American apple-pie family they were supposed to be.

Well, when I switched over I barely noticed any difference. Probably depends on which browser and which Xkit extensions you use, though.

Have you updated to the new Xkit?

I don’t tag my queue. I should. I should just use “John de Lancie” and see if anybody gets it.

ambular-d replied to your post “To the people who suggested another reason Dean gave Cas the Blade was...”

Hmm, had actually kind of overlooked that part, thanks for pointing out. Although...is it necessary for the blade to be "powered up," so to speak, to do the job? Or does it merely have to be the weapon that's used?

I kinda was assuming that you literally can't physically use the Blade unless you have the Mark - like it won't cut or stab or whatever, even if you try.

Not quite sure I follow your logic? The first time, Cas killed an angel solely to take his grace. The second time he tried to refuse until Crowley told him it came from an angel who’d been trying to kill Hannah.

Did I not logic good? sorry I'm really tired today, and words are really hard

What I meant was that the first time that Cas took the grace, there was a decision that he made to do it that he justified saying "I did what I had to do."  With Crowley forcing it on him, it's still wrong and there was still a decision that he made to accept it, but he hasn't tried to justify it by saying that he had no other choice.  If that makes sense.
