SPN questions that have been bugging me...

ash48and so I wondered if my knowledgeable flist could shed any light...
1. Was the demon in Croatoan (Duane Tanner) Meg? I admit to never thinking it was but I've come to realise that others think it is....?
2. When Ruby told Sam "You didn't need the feather to fly, you had it in you the whole time Dumbo", she's referring to Sam not needing the blood to be able to exorcise Demons yeah? So if that's the case why does Sam run out of "juice" when exorcising Demons? As in he wasn't able to exorcise Ruby after getting rid on Lilith. Is it because he is mentally exhausted? Spent his mental energies? Did he only think he needed blood in order to use his special skills. If so, does than mean he could actually exorcise demons now (and in S5) and doesn't because it would betray Dean's trust and just be too "darkside"? I'm thinking yes. But would he be able to without the connection to blood.... Hmmmm...
and finally (and this is because I am getting all wooby because I am in the middle of making a Sam vid and it's breaking me heart just a little...).
Why is Dean so hard on Sam with the choices he made after his death? I suppose that's rhetorical, because I know Dean has issues he's dealing with as well (and Sam choosing Ruby over himself cut to the core), but Dean copped out after Sam's death. He didn't want to live with the pain of grief. He couldn't live without Sam, so he bought him back.
Yet Sam had to suffer the terrible grief of losing Dean. He didn't have an out like Dean did. Now, sure Sam made some bad choices, but holy crap. I think Dean making a deal with a demon was a pretty bad choice as well. So yeah, cut your little bro some slack Dean. He was hurting mighty bad and the choices at the time helped him survive. Don't forget, you chose not to live with those feelings.....
(And that last one isn't really a question, just a rant. I know the way each of them have handled each others death is the whole point (well mostly) of S3 to S5. And I love it really! Just thinky thoughts...)

Re: the demon blood, I think it was Ruby's way of getting Sam addicted to her.
Yes. And I really liked your argument here. That makes a lot of sense. I figured it was a way of controlling him, but I wasn't sure why she really needed to do that. But, in reference to the other PKs (particularly Ava), it makes more sense. Without her "control" Sam could do anything, even turn on her. Or he might not have followed through on his full potential. And of course he had to be able to kill Lilith to break the last seal, so she needed to make she he was going to do that.
Oh yay. That's really rounded off my thinking on that. :)
Ah yes. Dean. His feelings of guilt have been mentioned a few times. And I believe Dean does have a lot of guilt and obviously that has manifested itself into him being unforgiving of Sam using his powers and siding with Ruby. And I can see that Dean is trying to be more understanding in S5... I suppose I wish he'd stop mentioning it to Sam. The guilt Sam is carrying now must at least equal the guilt Dean has been carrying.... hmmm. It's a tricky one. (Must be why I love my show so much!)
Thanks for sharing your thought here hun! They make a lot of sense to me. :)
