You've evil Nicole, the chapter ended just as Dean was going to reveal is terrible secret. What he did to think that Sam would be horrified by what Dean did and leave him alone. I love you took the same scene we got in the last chapter but this time with Dean point of view, very well done. Terrific work Nicole.
Author's Response: Oh, well, mighty big thanks, Oceane! Actually, it was Gaelic's idea to start the chapter with a recap through Dean's eyes...I needed help getting started and she was quick to jump in. Sometimes getting started is the hardest part for me...once I get going, it just starts coming along. Gosh, you don't know how happy your kind words make me...I sometimes worry that people aren't as thrilled with this story as WUC...'cause I know I've pulled back on the emo a little. But, you and everyone here seem to okay with that. Thanks for sending me your thoughts. Nicole

(This might look familiar... *smile*) Oh... so cruel! I watched that scroll bar get closer and closer to the end as they talked and just *knew* you were going to leave us without Dean's confession... whimper. You had some really great lines in this! My favorite was this:
>> A rubber band stretched too far, Dean felt himself expanding, snapping and then flung far into the corners of his mind.
I also liked that you had Sam crafty enough to get Dean drunk. And wisely switch him to beer before skunked turned into full-on passed out. :) Getting inside of Dean's mind was great -- his desperation to control the *thing* inside of him... his pain... sigh.
Keep it going, girl! Don't want to wait to long to hear the story about Hannah!
Author's Response: LOL, well, it was pretty cruel...but I got the idea to leave it hanging there from you, ha, ha. And thanks for helping me get jump started. You idea was just the thing I needed to get going. Now, to plan the big confession...*rubs hand together in evil glee*.

I love this story on so many levels NG! It's so good I'm willing to excuse all slothfulness, as long as you update again soon! (great vacation notwithstanding!)
Lots of things to enjoy, but I loved Dean fighting Dean fighting Sam, Dean wanting handcuffs, Sam trying to get Dean drunk....carefully! Most heartbreaking line? This one: Despair coloring his eyes, Dean whispered, “And what if I tell you and…you leave?” Yikes. Did I mention I would like you to update soon?
Author's Response: *Has big grin on face* Yeah, I think you might have mentioned it once or twice. I hope to get started tomorrow, but son is playing in his second Little League tournament Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday nights...*sigh*. But, I'm gonna try since the people who have stuck with this deserves a quicker update! :) Thanks for the kind review, it made my heart happy! Nicole

woo hoo....was wonderin' when the next chapter was gonna be. Keep it up!!!! Any more vids up your sleeve?????
Author's Response: Well, I just posted a new vid at YouTube late last night (or should I consider it early this morning, REALLY early, lol), but it's just a straight shot of Jensen...no effects 'cause my man speaks for himself, lol and has nothing to do with the story. You can find it on my profile page if you want to see it. And, big thanks for not only reading and reviewing, but for asking about the vids, lol. That's nice to hear. Nicole

Dean with his head on his knees getting ready to spill....how can you leave it like that? EVIL!
Author's Response: Oh, man...yeah, I guess that was kinda evil, huh? Well, that only means I wanted to make sure you didn't run away screaming in dismay for at least one more chapter! I sure hope you'll like where we are going with this *is nervous*. Thanks, again, for leaving me a cookie...just call me the Cookie Monster, lol. Nicole

OMG - This story just gets better. Freakin' awesome chapter. But WHAT an EVIL cliffie - throw us a bone here! You've been taunting us with the story of Hannah forever... PLEASE update sooooon. I loved Dean insisting on being cuffed and Sam's idea of getting him drunk to spill the beans....Hell, there's nothing I don't love about this story...
Author's Response: *manages to look contrite* Sorry :)...but you'll know the secret next chapter for sure - does that count? Time to move this puppy forward! Nothing? Aw, that is so sweet of you to say...thank you! And, what's not to like about a cuffed!Dean? ;) Nicole
Reviewer: GotTheShining (Signed) · Date: 24/06/07 10:43 PM · On: Coming Undone
Ooh, and a video too:)
Author's Response: LOL, yeah...'cause you all deserve something after having to wait on me. I made a new one about Jensen in his best roles...you can find it on my YouTube page if you're interested.

Poor Dean, how much more he'll take before he's too broken to be himself again. Now that they know with what they're dealing maybe they'll find a way to get rid of it. Loved that moment when Dean tell to Sam this memory from their childhood, very sweet. Awesome video Nicole and great choice of song. Riveting story so far, can't wait for more.
Author's Response: Why, thanks! Riveting is an awesome adjective that I don't normally hear in regards to my stuff. :) Nicole
Reviewer: Thru Terrys Eyes (Signed) · Date: 31/05/07 08:36 AM · On: Coming Undone
Now I'm gonna review the chapter. I really liked the moments Dean shared with Sam. very sweet and then you zinged us. Well done!
Author's Response: I know, and I almost feel bad about the zinging considering I've not even started the new chapter yet. But, I will. Just had some reading to catch up on. I've still got you newest VS epi to read and I'm getting ready to start Dazzleland...having gotten caught up on Old Rebel Yeller and Cirque de Celine. But, I need a reading break...so maybe I should get back to y'all, eh? So, so glad you liked it, Terry, I appreciate you taking time out for me, busy lady that you are!
:) Nicole

I finally got time to read this chapter but being me i skipped to the prezzie first. I can't remember my youtube log in or i would have filled a page with my undying awe of that video. I LOVE that version of Coming Undone, it was perfect perfect perfect. I'm looking for an award site for video of the century. I 'm going to buy a whole new box of candles just for you!!!!
Author's Response: Oh, wow...how did you know I adore candles! My husband continually rolls his eyes at me for buying new candles. All food scented because the flowery ones make my nose burn. As you can see, I'm avoiding commenting on the praise because - being me - I never know what to do with it, lol. So, I'll just say thanks, because it always means a lot coming from you! Nicole
Reviewer: ciel4 (Signed) · Date: 30/05/07 01:25 AM · On: Coming Undone
Wheeee! NG's back! have to confess to being a little bit worried when you hadn't updated for a while, and then I saw "Connected" and I knew another chapter for this one wouldn't be far away.......just as well, BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN HANGING OUT FOR IT! And it was so worth the wait. This is my new favourite chapter in this story. The whole conversation on the bed is just gorgeous, and I love the term "guilt buffet" It sums Dean up perfectly! I haven't watched the vid yet, but I will. Thanks for the presents hon!
Author's Response: I don't normally wander into flashback childhood memories because I worry about doing them right...so they don't sound false or hollow, so I'm glad this seems to have worked out. Yep, I took a mini-vacation. Between the blinding fear of messing this whole thing up and just being plain busy, busy, busy, it took a while to get back. May is always such a busy month for me, so it was easy to hide behind the activity, lol. But, my good pal, GS, let me cry my woes on her shoulder and I moved on. Thanks for reviewing...since, you know, I was nervous about committing to this chapter. :)
Reviewer: Ace33 (Signed) · Date: 28/05/07 12:04 AM · On: Coming Undone

Another reallt great chapter. Thanks :)
Author's Response: Hi there! How are ya? Thanks for leaving me a comment...it's so exciting to read what people think!
Reviewer: gaelicspirit (Signed) · Date: 27/05/07 06:21 PM · On: Coming Undone
Holy cow! Not only do we get a kick-ass angst-filled chapter, but a video! I have to admit, I was so curious I scrolled to the bottom to see the video first. :) Nicely done! I loved the editing and the way you timed the actions to the lyrics. Though I'm usually not a Korn fan, that one was fitting. Thanks so much for sharing! And now the chapter -- okay, I feel a little silly that I didn't see what you were doing earlier, but I simply chalk it up to the fact that I enjoy allowing the story to unfold before me and not try to think around the author to figure out what's going on. Dean's guilt with Hannah -- whatever happened with her -- is wrenching. And I loved that you tied it back to Bloody Mary. I've always wondered why Dean's eyes bled -- AND why Sam never asked him. *silly Sam* And with this Culpa-Moh (right?) invading/possessing Dean... gah. Nicely done. I hope the stars align so that you can bring us the next installment soon. I have a feeling that Dean's plight is going to get worse before it gets better...
Author's Response: Okay, everything I said before...ditto! Thanks for leaving me cookies in both places...*hugs*! What would I do without you and the others as such good friends? Nicole

Nicole, this was great! Absolutely worth the wait! And that vid...I love presents and that was an awesome one. This chapter was fabulous....made me want to jump into the story and beat the crap out of that demon for delighting in Dean's agony. I pretty much feel that way when I watch the show too... ;-) The quotes that Sojourner pulled out were my favorites as well. I loved the image of Sam clomping around in Dean's shoes...so cute! Can't wait to see how the boys are going to get out of this one....I'm a little worried....
Author's Response: Well, they say to pull from your own life experience when you write and I used to have niece who is only 5 yrs. younger than me who would wear my shoes and stuff...and I see it in my own kids. And, it most always drives the older one nuts, lol! I could see Sam hero worshiping Dean to this extent...because, you know, he is an awesome older brother. I can't wait to see how they get out of this either...HA, just joking, lol. Thanks for the review and I'm just so thankful y'all are still hanging in there with me :) Nicole

Okay...I couldn't wait for the next time I could find wifi, I had to read it now before I find out that I'll never be back to this cafe in AZ and lose it wondering what chapter seven was like...so I am hiding from family and got a chance to read this. One word: Awesome! Highlights: “The summer after you’d turned five.” Dean let the smile warm his voice. “You got it in your head to be just like me…not that anyone could blame you, having such a cool older brother and all.” ***** “You know, he’s never really forgotten that. I can’t decide what hurt him worse, the salt tearing into his skin or the words that ripped his soul.” ***** “You see, Sam, Dean’s just too broken, just too much fun to resist. By the time I’m done, your brother’s gonna be begging you to kill him…if he doesn’t kill you first. Until then, take comfort in knowing that your brother is all I need to finish out this cycle. Consuming him is equal to at least two souls, a veritable guilt buffet.”
Author's Response: *jumps up and down and hugs sojourner* Thanks, sweetie! I can't believe you're reading this even though you're on vacation, lol. AZ, huh? Boy, girl, you are a long way from home! Must be temperature shock for you. Anyway, thank you, I still can't believe you made time for this, what a great friend! Now, you go have a good time and stay safe out there! Drop me a line when you get back.

omg.....nicole..i thought you're tale was outstanding but the video really topped it all....I've loved Dean from day one and felt that Jensen was born to play that part......one pained look, one facial twitch and he conveys more angst and meaning than five minutes of dialogue.............all I can say is AWESOME...I love deep, dark,bigger-than-life, self-sacrificing, NOBLE heroes and Dean is the cream of the crop at that........thank you for immortalizing him on vid...great song, fantastic lyrics.... again thanks
Author's Response: Yes, I know Jensen says that he's a lot more like Sam than Dean, but he does Dean so well it's like no one else could possibly do Dean better. He is Dean, no way it could be any other way. You are so welcome, I was happy to do it, it only took me a couple of days and then I went back in and added scenes from the finale and ta-daa! I enjoy playing with the vids and I really enjoy watching others getting enjoyment out of them. Thanks for the double comment! Nicole

This was soooo worth waiting for.....I have checked day after day after day for a new posting and was so tickled to see this today.....thank you, thank you, thank you.......with Sam and Bobby in the hunt we'll see some assistance coming I'm sure..............hopefully your little demons are exorcized and the chapters will flow more readily
Author's Response: Whew! There are still people reading, lol. Yeah, it was a long wait, huh? What can I say, got busy and had chapter-fright...but hopefully everything will run much more smooth now. So, thank you, I'm happy that you're happy:)

Holy Crap!!! All this and a video too??? You truly rock. Fabulous chapter. As always the boys are perfect - I'm suffering right along with them. Awesome demon. Can't wait to hear the story on Hannah. Thanks for Bobby - he rocks too!
Author's Response: Shoot, yeah! Bobby rocked the finale, seriously. Well, sure, you all deserve a video for being so patient with me. I know I took WAY too long. Thanks for sticking with me :) Nicole
