Very sweet. I love this story. It says a lot without using a lot of words and I think that's how the boys would be. Great job!

I just keep saying the same stuff, I love it.  Really liked the emotional scene and how you made it so real.

Wow. The atmosphere and the intensity of emotion in this is awesome. Love how Sammy just knew Dean was out in the rain and in trouble. Great job!   Sue

Thank you so much for writing this for Angela.  Our family is very close, but we sometimes find our selves geographically scattered, nice to know  our sister has support here too, ma'am. She'll like this one, sibling apologies may be a bit more subdued than the arguements that lead to them, but they mean more. Thank you, Sam, Jake, and Nate

Thank you all for reviewing, and for the sterling work you've done keeping us all informed. (Though - 'ma'am'? I'm only 26! No ma'am's here!)

I'm glad you liked it, and I hope things keep getting better for all of you over there - the family on this site extends well beyond the writers, so you've had just as many hopes and well-wishes as Angela!

Thanks once again,

Cal

Beautifully written!  It reached in and held my heart hostage!

Author's Response:

Great!

I think... is holding your heart hostage a good thing? LOL - thanks - a lovely review to get!

Wonderfully done Cal. A very intense description of our two boys and their angst. I really loved this line: 

The icy touch of the storm hadn't mattered as he stripped his shirt off, wrapped it around his brother's shoulders, his head whirling with the out and out terror and the guilt, the last residues of the fury withering sullenly away in the face of that instant, slurred reassurance from the barely conscious hunter, but clinging onto his heart as they stumbled back to the car.

I could practically feel Sam's worry, fear and guilt. This is a nice portrait of the rough patches that brothers go through. And of course, a wonderful description of a wet Dean. Yum.

 Great job!

Cal, I am so glad you wrote more than 2500. Cos my thing has more as well. Can't bloody well do short! CRAP! Will post later this night or tomorrow. Tho a happy thing. You cheated! It was supposed to be cheering! Well, the shower scene kinda cheered me after the mental toment. Angela will love that, Cal!

...Phileas freakin' Fog...    hilarious. Jule Verne quoted by Dean! Wonder if he read the book or watched the Jackie Chan version though. I bet he watched the movie...  Jackie Chan is definitely a guys-thing. Too much karate in it for me. And too much comedy. I'll stick with your stuff, way better.

...If I don't look after him, I might lose him and he's all I've got...       Owh. Heart wrenching. As usual your stuff gets right to my inner emotions. Sniffle. Dean only caring about Sam not himself is a classic.

walking through the storm=nearly a shower scene, lol

....rough, gentle hands...    like the antagonism here. Makes it more real, tangible. Rough on the outside, soft and gentle inside. Just like Dean. I might be overinterpreting here. Just crossed my mind as a possible deeper meaning.

You knew, same way I always knew when you got lost when you were a kid. You just... knew. And you came and found me. Gave me your... I'm an idiot....      A psychic and subconscious connection between the close brothers. Like that concept a lot. Great idea. Underlines their care and love for each other. And Sam doing the same as Dean used to when they were kids. Just so sweet. Family. That's what this is.

.....painting quick silver trails over his well-muscled torso and slipping into the towel slung haphazardly around his waist....    Do I really have to comment here? OK. Hang on. Gotta get the drool cleared away from the keyboard. There. That's better. Sexy beast that man! Makes me yearn for his return to the screen. Jeez. Might have to watch an episode now. Just to bathe in that image a little longer.

....burning, laden green stare, deep and dark as the ocean....   Uuuh. I could drown in those eyes. Such a fitting description.

....the same silent promise, whispered in two unspeaking voices....   The essence of your story and their relationship. Brilliant. Excellent. Awesome. Need more? Well, I do! It tears at my heart and soul. They really don't have to say much. They just understand each other in silence. Brothers till the end of time. Gawd, I hope Sam gets Dean outta hell soon. Just the thought of him hanging there... without Sam as his point of orientation, his purpose.

Well. Have said a lot, haven't I? I kinda feel sorry for bailing out of reviewing lately. But I have so much else to do. I will wait until Ricochet is complete. Then I will review ya. PROMISE. A silent one. And they mean the world, don't they? *winks*

Hugs, Ilka aka RoweenaC

Author's Response:

Hey, it's nearly 2500 - about as close as i normally get, anyway! And it is funny. In the end. You just gotta wade through all the angst first....

And you know you can say a lot anytime, luv - your reviews are great, they always pick out moments and make me see them in a new light - and sometimes the choices you make are a wonderful surprise - little moments that didn't seem like much of anything when I wrote them thar seem to have more imapct than i ever imagined!

BTW - Ricochet has been completed for a while - think it got knocked down the just added list almost instantaneously... so go on, feed the addiction a little...

Thanks luv!
