User blog:FTWinchester/My Problems on Naomi's Character

In hindsight, Cas's memory being wiped many times over (in the distant past) left a bad taste. I think this is the single worst thing that happened to this season.

It makes me think what is actually true from his character. Did he adopt different behaviors and attitudes (I know it is implied he was quite rebellious, but I'm talking other things like humor, blasphemy or deviousness, and other emotions that warrant cleaning up his memory) in the past?

Were the things he said in The Man Who Would Be King true? This really cheapened the development of the character, and by extension, Anna Milton's character and their cause to Free Will as well. Unless of course we get future episodes where Castiel tries to rediscover himself, and to highlight Free Will by successfully keeping his memories intact.

Semi-related: Can we actually have the fucking category/class of Naomi and her crew? At least drop a name of the choir or something.

And more back story about her. What is she actually? Since when did she assume a position of power? There appears to be no logical reason on her rise to power. If she was powerful and was in service of Raphael, why did she let Castiel win the civil war? And if she was in Raphael's employ, she should have been destroyed when Godstiel purged heaven.

Was she hiding all those times? If so, why? It doesn't make sense that she would let a broken angel run around declaring himself as the new God. After all, Naomi rather seems to be a stickler for rules, much like Raphael was. What the fuck is she and why did she have the power to either refuse being coerced by Raphael into joining him, or to keep herself safe when Castiel became Godstiel? It's obviously not because Castiel was elevated as a Seraph--we know Naomi easily overpowered Castiel on different occasions. That means she could have stepped in any time post-Swan Song.

Edlund said they were a group of angels never seen before. Okay, we get that. The question is why? Why haven't we seen them before? Why just now? Why are they concerned only by the tablet? Lucifer threatening to destroy the Holy Host and take Heaven for himself is practically the same thing as shutting all the angels in Heaven. In both cases, angels are basically shut down/depowered, only, you know, in the previous, the Heavenly Host dies (which is worse).
