This post is from let me say I love you tumblr . The tags that developed over the reblogging of this post made me wonder if we were watching the same show. After reading their tags, I had to post my own reply. I don't really care if I anger anyone with my opinion but I can't believe they saw her character as anything but a manipulative demon.
Ruby played the Winchesters from the beginning. In No Rest for the Wicked, she says as much to Sam. "Manipulative is in the job description." Like Lucifer, Ruby says she won't lie to him. However, she doesn't tell Sam how to defeat Lilith in season 3 because there is no way Dean would allow Sam to use the demon blood. She had to get rid of Dean. The best way to get Sam on her side is to act like she's trying to save Dean. Her plan all along was to be the one to free Lucifer from the cage. SHE'S GLOATING!
Ruby:You don't even know how hard this was! All the demons out for my head. No one knew. I was the best of those sons of bitches! The most loyal! Not even Alistair knew! Only Lilith! Yeah, I'm sure you're a little angry right now, But, I mean, come on, Sam! Even you have to admit -- I'm -- I'm awesome!
SAM You bitch. You lying bitch! RUBY: Don't hurt yourself, Sammy. It's useless. You shot your payload on the boss.
SAM: The blood... You poisoned me.
RUBY: No. It wasn't the blood. It was you... and your choices. I just gave you the options, and you chose the right path every time. You didn't need the feather to fly, you had it in you the whole time, Dumbo! I know it's hard to see it now... but this is a miracle. So long coming. Everything Azazel did, and Lilith did. Just to get you here. And you were the only one who could do it.
She doesn't love Sam, she never did. She doesn't hope to save them. She used them, then gloated.
Thank you for your hard work and fab fic!! :D I love it!! I'm in the throes of finals right now, but I will be leaving a proper comment on AO3 for you too. :) Awesome work!! \o/
There always has to be Sterek comments! I got a customer on the phone and it was he password to her account. I squeed so badly and ended up talking to her for ages. Boss wasn't too happy about it but…
I liked the way you took the story of Sam's teacher and wove it through your story. As I was reading, I kept thinking, "Hey, that would work!" Thank you for sharing.
