rewatching spn season seven, and..

[yearly]

All right, so clearly we've established that they get the mythology mixed up. I'm not Cronus, that was Zeus' father, and he was a huge ass.

Second, why would I basically eat people? And third, I understand that it's a different.. what, canon? But seriously, I'm the oldest thing in existence. That olive branch could be dipped in whatever they want to dip it in, it's not killing me. Not that they'd need to. I mean, I'm only violent to protect my family or my minders.

[ he picks at an iron man bandaid across his knuckles, mouth thinning. ]

.. Besides, mortals die eventually, no matter how much we might like it to be different.

Comments

[let_me_loose]

Yes, they do. And when they die, they come to me.

[yearly]

Or another pantheon. There are a dozen or two, after all.

[let_me_loose]

Are there?

[yearly]

Naturally. I'm good friends with a number of them.

[demonhunting]

Yeah, well, you know. Different universes and all that. [sigh]

[yearly]

Yeah, I know. [ picking at his bandaid again, because even if he's the oldest thing ever where he's from, he's still like.. twelve right now, too. ] Doesn't mean I feel great about having my name basically dragged through the mud.

[demonhunting]

I'm pretty sure you're not the only one who feels that way.

[He figures there's like, a ton of other gods who aren't as happy about their portrayals. And then there's Sam and Dean themselves, unrepentant criminals to the public at large. Which sucks.

And then there's the future stuff to think on.]

[yearly]

But I'm definitely the scariest. [ a pause, squinting. ] .. Sometimes. When I'm really, really, really angry. Or when Liam falls back off the wagon, which usually go hand-in-hand.

[demonhunting]

Remind me not to try and piss you off, then.

Liam?

[yearly]

Prob'ly wouldn't be a good idea.

He's my minder. My master minder. [ he spreads his arms to indicate his apparent age. ] I live in the mortal world, so I have to have humans who act as my guardians when I'm this age. Liam's been with me for.. over forty years, now, I guess.

[persist]

Lots of people get things about us wrong. I think a lot of them confuse you and Grandpa a lot because of how your names look similar.

[signedlefthanded]

I could write a book on the variations of my two canons.

[monthly]

If you ate people I'd probably be missing a few fingers, so heres to you not finding a new hobby, yeah?

And don't pick at that. [He lightly slaps Chronos' hand away from the bandaid.]

[yearly]

That'd be my guess. He's not my favourite descendant by any stretch of the imagination.

[yearly]

Are they terribly different?

[yearly]

Well, it was a little bit of an exaggeration. The fake-me was eating peoples'.. essence, basically. Still, I prefer cheeseburgers.

[ a sulky glance. ] It itches.

[signedlefthanded]

They condensed three books into one film. The facts are all wrong, and while most of the characterization is decently played, the antagonist was more vile and less silly.

[monthly]

That sounds disgusting, moreso than the fingers bit.

And it should itch, that means it's healing.

[persist]

Figures. I heard about the stuff he did like castrating Great-Grandpa? And eating my dad and my uncles and aunts. [ she looks kinda disgusted at the last part. because welp, she was eaten too. ]
