I really liked your story and how it developed. Neat way to bring the accident back and stir up some memories, while at the same time bringing at least a little resolution for Sam. Congrats to your nomination. Hugs, Vonnie
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading and reviewing. I like stories that stir up memories for the boys, it gives me a chance to, as you said, at least partially resolve issues left unsettled in the episodes. I'm thrilled that this story has been nominated for the UnGen awards, too;-) Sue

I DID enjoy the ride! Great story! Sam breaking his wrist WOULD keep him from driving, but yeah, there might be more than that. Very nice.
Author's Response: Hi Primrose, Thanks so much for reviewing, glad you liked this story. Original idea for this was a follow-up to Up and Down the Dial, all the times in second season that Sam drove the Impala. But he didn't drive her very often at all, so this morphed into why Sam didn't drive their car. Needless to say, I loved the ending of Fallen Idols, since I see a similarity of ideas there;-) Sue

A great read,so that's what Sam's nightmares were about, i never guessed.
Author's Response: Hi darkhunter, Thanks for the review, glad I kept you guessing about the nightmares. Sue

I love the boys interaction, you seem to have got that right, quite hard to do, I enjoyed its simplicity...nice story like your choice of music too Jacq
Author's Response: Hi Jacq, Thanks for the review and the stars! The boys' interaction is probably the main reason I'm so hooked on the show, so glad you think I did it justice in this story! Queen's been a long-time favorite of mine, so the music sort of flowed from the scenes. Sue

Didn't even think that Sam's nightmares would be from his possession - I thought it would be the accident. But the possession was more recent - of course it makes sense that the possibility of the truckie being re-possessed would trigger Sam's memories and nightmares of his time under Meg's thumb. And way to go, Sammy! Pedal to the metal and fly! I noticed, too, that Sam did hardly any driving in S2, even once his arm was out of the cast. I just put it down to either a) Dean really didn't trust him with the Impala, or b) his visions made it too risky for him to drive, since they never knew when one would hit, and they seemed a little more frequent in S2. But I did always wonder..... Great job, Sue. I just had to come back and finish it tonight. Jules
Author's Response: Jules, Thanks for another detailed review. And I'm thrilled that this was must reading for you and you had to finish it tonight! (NBC television had an ad campaign a few years that their line-up (esp Thursday nights) was "Must See TV"). Sue

Okay - have to admit I'm having a brain fart - or an over-40's moment - whatever fits. I hadn't figured out what they were up against - I'd wondered briefly whether it might have been a spirit - possibly Dean's, since he almost died that night in the crash, and might have left some sort of imprint on the place, but I didn't think of a poltergeist. And the only thing I can think of Sam dreaming about would be the crash, or the confrontation with the YED. Scary crash, the helpless feeling of knowing they were going to hit the fence and there was nothing that Dean could do but try to protect Sam from the worst of the impact. Hmm...ran out of lunch break - will have to return later tonight when I get home and finish this off - cant' wait to see where it's going. I have a feeling it's going to get messy..... Jules
Author's Response: Hi Jules, Don't worry about the over-40 thing, you've got a lot of company;-) I like it that you didn't figure out the supernatural element of the story, it's nice to keep the readers guessing and surprised. Sounds like the crash came across as believable and scary, as intended. Sue

Hi, Sue, Love the detail that you put into this - it really sets the scene. My heart goes out to the poor truckie - and that was chilling that it was another early model black car with three occupants - just like the Winchesters..... Poor Sam - having to hear himself described like that - his desperate screaming for his brother. Wonder what Dean's going to say about that - hope he doesn't exercise his usual big-brother right to tease. Moving on to the next chapter while I've still got 15 mins left of my lunch break. Jules
Author's Response: Hi Jules, Thanks for the detailed review. The opening scene is meant to draw you into the story, and possibly make the reader think that it is THE crash, described from the trucker's pov. Sam's screaming... hmmm, you've almost got me tempted to do a missing scene for that. Sue

I thoroughly enjoyed your story. I had my fingers crossed when that other car approached theirs. Whoowee! It's great that Dean is trusting Sam with his baby, I guess it's his way of showing him that he trusts him in all aspects of his life.
Author's Response: Hi, A belated thank you for the review and the stars, somehow I missed this when I was responding. You've got it in a nutshell, Dean's letting Sam drive the Impala is his way of showing that he trusts Sam implicitly. Sue

A great story, i didn't guess it was a poltergeist and no ideas to Sam's nightmare, but i'm looking forward to finding out.
Author's Response: Hi darkhunter, Thanks for the review. It's ok that you didn't guess it was a poltergeist, that shows I can still catch people by surprise with my plotting, always good for a writer to hear. Only one more chapter to go, glad you're sticking around for the ride. Sue
Reviewer: penmin (Signed) · Date: 23/03/09 02:27 PM · On: Hands-on Investigation
I'm still liking this, a good story from when things were easier and less angsty, classic poltergeist? look forward to next chapter...Jacq
Author's Response: Hi Jacq, Thanks for continuing to comment. My hunt stories have all been set in season 2 so far. At the time, I thought it was pretty angsty, the boys are dealing with John's death and last words, and Sam's wondering if he's going to go Darkside. Those issues don't seem so heavy, now that we're deep in season 4. Sue

I'm very hooked onto your story. I wasn't thinking polterguist, but it does make perfect sense! All I can think of for Sam's nightmare is that he was recreating the crash scene since he did remember it (unlike Dean). I can't wait to see what happens next!
Author's Response: Hi, Thank you so much for reviewing, and the stars! Last chapter will be up this weekend and all will be revealed;-) Sue
Reviewer: penmin (Signed) · Date: 23/03/09 11:30 AM · On: Trouble on the Highway
Good story, I always wondered what may have happened to that trucker, I like the leafy motel room and Dean being Dean and Sam being Sam, good one, no time to read next chapter now, will read that this evening, well do Monday nights need a little Winchester action...Jacq
Author's Response: Jacq, Thanks for reading and thanks for the stars! Describing the funky motel rooms the boys stay in is one of the perks of writing a hunt story. I try to stay in the spirit of the show's motel rooms, and be creative at the same time;-) And every night needs a little Winchester action! Sue
