I am absolutely not buying all the incest shipping stories because this is definitely not what Sam and Dean are like.
No, I agree. The Wincest is one of those things I don't understand. Or more precisely I don't understand how it has become one of the major pairings for this show. If there was just a few stories then I would simply see it as darker, more disturbing fic for this universe - but it is without a doubt the largest fan base. That I don't get.
(And I suppose in light of the recent LJ and incest discussions I must say that I understand part of the reaction to people that come from outside of fandom and see all these incest stories. Not that I condone shutting down sites without proper warning or serious investigation to what the site is about - but I get that people without fandom knowledge find it weird that there are so many incest stories floating around. I mean I'm used to fandom and I find it weird. )
It could be nice if after that they didn't go their separate ways but stayed together. This can bring more depth to the story.
yeah, I think the time has come to expand the SPN universe. They've dealt with the Yellow Eyed Demon and in a way closed that arc. So now it's time to stretch and give depth. Like you I think more recurring characters would be a good way to go. I've read a few places people that don't want changes to the SPN universe at all, but personally I think it would do the series good. If a series stops changing then there is a great risk of it becoming formulaic and that would be a shame.
Russia Nikita is a very popular old Slavonic guy's name and NEVER a girl's name.
Hee. I know. I think a lot of the confusion comes from the fact that it ends with an 'a', and that is usually seen as a girls name. Also in the 1980's there was this Elton John video called "Niktia" and that starred a very beautiful young woman - so maybe that is source of confusion as well?
