Okay, so this review is for both stories. I love how you handled Dean's deal and I wish that Kripkie had used your storyline instead of actually sending Dean to hell. Though I was wary of Sam being in a mental instutition, I liked the way you ended it with him getting better and having Dean and Bobby back in his life. In the other story, I like that you let Dean live and actually made Ruby useful instead of the b***h she was on the show. Loved the brotherly moments of course and loved how Bobby was there for both of them. Both of these stories were great and can't wait to read more of your fics.
Author's Response: Hey, Laina, This was the story that kicked me above the radar. I'd been flying quite happily beneath most peoples' notice until this one. And quite truthfully, I can't figure out what it is about the story that has caught everyone's attention so strongly. Because when I sent the first two chapters to my beta, I was convinced it wouldn't work. When she emailed me straight back begging (actually, demanding, come to think of it) for more, that was when I decided not to shelve it and kept writing. At the time I wasn't sure about Ruby. I didn't know if she was up to something, or was just a smart-arse who was on the boys' side for a change. When she seemed truly concerned for Dean at the end of the Malleus Maleficarum, I thought perhaps I'd been wrong - but should have known better. Demons lie. And of course, I had to do this from an outsider's point of view, otherwise it would have given my plot away - lol. Thanks so much for reading both stories. Jules

Mind blowing and beautiful :) Thank you very much for the lovely read!
Author's Response: Thank you very much for the review. And on an oldish story, too. I'm thrilled that you had such a good time in the tale. It was fun but nerve-wracking writing it - I think this was my first first-person fic, and I was delving into areas that are way, way out of my field. So it's nice to know that it all pulled together. Thanks again for stopping by and letting me know your thoughts. Jules

I just loved your story!Lol you got me fooled,I really thought it was Dean nearly until the very end.Great job,you surely have talent. :)
Author's Response: Thank you so very much. And I have to confess, I'm glad I had you fooled - lol. This story could only have worked the way it did, mystery-wise, told from first person outsider point of view. And an outsider who didn't know the boys. I wasn't used to writing this way, but I found the story had a lot more scope to do what I wanted. And it was very nice to be able to use Aussie names for things - lol. Thank you again - I'm stoked that you loved this. Jules

Really affecting piece. Second time around, still moving. I'm so glad it ended happily! And I love the doctor. Great character! Nice twist, suspense, everything. Thanks!
Author's Response: Thank you so much, Natalie. Again - lol. Seriously though, I'm touched and thrilled that the story hooked you just as much the second time around as it did the first. I've had people tell me that once they start reading it, they just can't put it down until they get to the end. And I'm always amazed by that reaction. Glad you love Kayla. I've actually had a request to write her into another story, and I just might do that - have the boys come back to the institution for a hunt. It might be interesting to do. Again, thank you, and I'm chuffed that you enjoyed it so much. Jules

Amazing chapter - but I didn't believe it is Dean, because the mysterious patient is too tall to be Dean... what I don't understand is the fact that you wrote he has no tattoos, but I thought the brothers had the tattoos that protect them from possession by demons... SORRY for my bad English and awful grammar, but I'm German and it's not my native language.
Author's Response: Your English is fine, don't worry. Thank you for your review, and for reading. Can't tell you whether you're right or wrong- that would be giving things away - lol. In regard to the tattoos - at the time of writing this, I hadn't seen the episode Jus In Bello where the boys revealed their tattoos, so to my knowledge at the time of writing the story, they didn't have any. Hope you enjoy the next chapter. Jules
Reviewer: bartlebead (Signed) · Date: 08/01/11 01:14 PM · On: Epilogue
Really good! Great idea and well done! Kept me reading right up to the end! I think, though, that the doc would have been certain of schizophrenia with all the talk of demons -- basically a different world from our own, but completely consistent with itself!
Author's Response: Thanks for that, Natalie - oh, and welcome to the site. I'm thrilled you enjoyed the ride this story took you on. Re the schizophrenia - well, the boys can talk up a convincing argument when they want to, and with Dean's solid conviction and Sam's sincerity, did Kayla have a chance? LOL. And of course, being a doctor, she'd see right through any bull, and know they were telling the truth, no matter how freaky it was. Anyway, as I said, any medical inconsistencies are entirely mine. Thanks so much for reading, and letting me know what you thought. I hope you have many more hours of reading on the site. There are some fantastic authors here, with a wonderful collection of stories for all tastes. Take care, Jules
Reviewer: bartlebead (Signed) · Date: 08/01/11 12:32 PM · On: Chapter 3
Good! I have to assume it's "really" Dean -- at 6'1-6'2, with green eyes, but it's pretty convincing each time!
Author's Response: That's provided the doc got his height correct...but then again, she is a doctor... Glad you're sticking with the story, and hope you're still enjoying it. Jules
Reviewer: bartlebead (Signed) · Date: 08/01/11 12:21 PM · On: Chapter 2
Whew. Thanks for the reassurance here. I've been concerned about Sam.
Author's Response: No problem. Thank you for reading. Hope you enjoy this twisted little tale. Jules

And Finally... I've printed this story out yesterday along with the part one "Fractured" and from the start I knew the patient was Sam. Not that I read that story for the millionth times (and now I have this book which's really awsam), but your description about those eyes was the major clue. I mean, Dean doesn't have deep green eyes and the eye color doesn't change unlike Sam's. Then the height thing, Dean's 6'1" and the doc assumed he's near about 6'2" and the doc didn't measure his height. She just assumed and he could be more than 6'2". :) And hair, yep... his hair was the major and one final clue. That's one helluva clue. :)))) I knew it was Sam, otherwise...you know... I umm... wouldn't have.... seriously... read this one. *silly grins* You know, how many books I'm currently possessing... 1. That's what the big brothers are for 2. The L word 3. Leiprechaun 4. Fractured hearts and broken heroes 5. Fractured and Broken Images 6. The greatest one "Here At The End of All Things" and I'm in heaven :))))) You're my super writer hero :))) seee... HERO :P Love you sooo much :))) Ritu :))
Author's Response: Now tell me, did you know it was Sam because of the clues, or because you've read it a hundred times - LOL. And yes, you're right - Dean's eyes don't really change colour like Sam's do. The hair was a major clue - height was deliberately vague up till one point. Books? Stories? You're getting quite a collection there hun. Hmm, there was a lot of hard work in that little slice of work, especially for Here At. We practically sweated blood over that one. Glad you love the stories so much, sweet. hugs Jules

Wow! What an amazing story!!! I loved it!!! :D *adds to favorites* I might just have to go back and read it again. :)
Author's Response: Thank you very much. And welcome to the site, by the way. I hope that you have lots of happy hours here, trolling through all the stories. This one practically wrote itself, amazingly enough. But there was a lot of research behind it, and quite a bit of nervous nail-biting and finger-crossing, hoping that it was all going to work. Thankfully it did, but even two-plus years later, I'm still trying to figure out how - LOL. Thank you again, and I'm really thrilled that you loved it so much. Take care, Jules

So sorry for the late reply, I just got to this this week and havong a blast.A hanky moment indeed especially the epilogue. Actually, from the very start I know its Sam coz the tems you used clued me in.Though, at first I thought Dean really died here resulting to Sam's breakdown. good work and more power to your pen.
Author's Response: Hello, Candy, and welcome to UnGen. I hope that you spend many happy hours here trolling through all the fanfics we have on offer. There are some truly awesome authors on this site - it's a reader's slice of SN heaven. Thank you so much - yes, there were quite a few hanky moments, weren't there? Oh, and kudos to you for spotting all my clues and figuring out it was Sam. That was great work. I kept the clues subtle, but they were there nonetheless. I still remember my beta's reaction to the first chapter - emailing me back demanding - "Tell me you've got more chapters written!!!!!" LOL. She'd promised never to nag me for a chapter, but she broke her rule with this story. So glad you came along for the ride, and that you enjoyed the journey so much. Again, welcome - this is a great site, and I hope you'll be very happy here. Jules

You know what, the song you've chosen for this story, is one of my favorites. I love Simon and Garfunkel's songs, especially 'Sound of Silence', 'Leaves that are green turn to brown', 'The only living in New York'. I just love those good old songs and while I was reading this chapter, I played the particular song too and believe me, I could practically see everything playing in front of my eyes that you've written. Awesome story, although I've now lost count how many times I read it before, but then again, you stories seem like evergreen to me. I never get bored and that's good for my pass time.
Author's Response: Hey, hun! I love Simon & Garfunkel too - my favourites apart from this one are Bridge Over Troubled Water, The Boxer, Cecelia and I Am An Island. Aw, thanks, hun. I'm really thrilled that you can read this one over and over again, and it still remains fresh. Even though now you know who the patient really is - lol. hugs Jules

Wow, this is my first review on this site. This story was wonderful! I want to go back and read it again now, knowing what I know. Very, very well done!
Author's Response: Hi, Shannon, and welcome to UnGen. I hope you have many hours of pleasure here. And thank you so much. I hope that the story gives you just as much pleasure the second time around as it did the first. I was so nervous when I sent the first two chapters to my beta for checking - I actually said to her in the email to tell me if she thought it was a dud and I wouldn't post it - lol. Three awards and I don't know what sort of read count later, and it's still grabbing people. And I didn't think it would work.....
Just shows what I know - LOL. Thank you again - I'm so glad you got so much enjoyment out of this. Jules

it has always been me reading ur magnifacinte work of art that i love. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING, u are more then a friend a TRUE ROYAL FAMILY to me. LOL, and i do hope that your child that so does kick ass is still writing marvillous work of stories. Cant wait to read them. TAKE CARE BOTH OF YOU AND THE REST OF THE FAMILY.
Author's Response: Hi, Ivonne, Hope you're keeping well. Thank you for this. It's strange - this is one of those stories that just won't say die, and I can't for the life of me figure out what the fuss is about - lol. I mean that in a nice way, as so many people have told me that they just can't put it down once they start reading it, even if they've read it before. It's a lovely compliment, especially since I wasn't sure if the story would work at all when I wrote the first two chapters. My "daughter" is taking a break from writing, sadly, to finish her degree. But I'm hoping that she will return to finish her story that she started posting on here, and give us lots more, as she is a very talented young woman and a wonderful storyteller. I'll pass on your wishes to her, thank you so much for that. Take care, and thank you again, Jules

This was a great story! I couldn't stop reading it for the life of me! I enjoyed trying to puzzle out who the actual patient was, also. I love how you incorporated all three of the Winchester men and their varying styles of "charm". :)
Author's Response: Well, hello. And thank you. So, how did you go figuring it out? Did you get all the clues? I left a few, but they were subtle. You know, I keep saying it so often I sound like a broken record, but I'm constantly amazed at the response I get from this story, and by how many people tell me that they just can't put it down. I've been trying to figure out why it's so special ever since I wrote the thing. My beta still laughs at the fact that when I sent the first chapter to her, I asked her to tell me honestly if she thought the story wouldn't work - lol. Thank you again for reading and letting me know your thoughts. And I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much. The big three-way argument between the separate personalities was a bit of fun to do, actually, as was keeping all three individual personalities and quirks separate for each appearance. Jules

Author's Response: Oh goodness - thank you. *blush, blush*.... You know, I was so worried I couldn't pull this off, I asked me beta to be straight with me if she thought it was a dud. And then it won a bucket-load of awards, and a pile of reviews, and I'm still sitting here scratching my head wondering how the flip it happened. Jules
