good story clap clap

Reviewer: Glitterbelle (Signed) · Date: 18/11/09 06:10 AM · On: Chapter 8

I enjoyed reading this story, thanks for sharing it.

How horrible for Dean to be paralysed in such away that he was still aware of everything that was going on around him and having to see and hear his little brother in his grief was very heartbreaking. 

I was so angry with Ruby, the way she knew what had happened to Dean and left him that way anyway. I never liked or trusted Ruby in the show, so you really brought out what I hated about Ruby with the way you wrote her. (Of I loved to hate Ruby) I think I could understand how angry Dean was feeling but also his hopelessness to be able to do anything.

Very nice story.

Author's Response:

Thanks (once more).

Ruby was actually the most fun to write in this story - like you, I really loved to hate her over the course of the last season, so figuring out in which ways she might try to deceive the brothers and put that into a story was simply fun.

Wow, this is an amazing chapter. I'm still chewing on some of the revelations and understandings between Sam and Dean, trying to decide if this story has ventured into AU territory. Heck with it, I don't care, I LOVED this chapter. Total honesty between the boys, what a concept for 4th season. And Dean's Baywatch and breath mint comment rocks!

Author's Response:

Well, I personally like to think it's at least AU-ish because the big resolution between Sam and Dean that I couldn't go without in this story is something Kripke is still witholding from us.

But be that as it may - the main thing is that you liked the story. I had such a blast writing it, it's so great to hear that you enjoyed reading it, too. Thanks a lot. 

Reviewer: Midge (Signed) · Date: 20/05/09 02:09 PM · On: Chapter 8

Fantastic. Brilliant. Oh yes Ruby is dead, hip hip hooray! Three cheers for Little Fairy.

I loved this story, from the first moments of Sam's desperation when he thought Dean was dead, right through Dean's hilarious description of CPR to his steaming anger at Ruby, Sam and Bobby's and their plan to help him. And best of all was the final healing total honesty between the brothers. 

Absolutely brilliant.



Author's Response: Thank you. I had so much fun writing this story, so I'm absolutely thrilled that you all liked it so much.

Reviewer: Rhesa (Signed) · Date: 20/05/09 11:16 AM · On: Chapter 8

I have been reading this at ff.net, but Im not a member there so couldn't review. Glad you posted here because I wanted to let you know how much I loved your story. It was completely compelling from the get go. I was gripped, desparately willing Sam to realise Dean was still alive. It was so moving seeing Sam's raw grief, and Deans fear and frustration. Loved how it all unfolded and led to the boys opening up to each other and finally killing Ruby.

You are a great writer thanks for sharing - this is a story I know I will read many times!



Author's Response: Thank you for the awesome review. It's always the best thing to hear that a story touches the reader in some way, and that you enjoyed reading it so much that you're going to read it again at some point. Thanks a lot for that :D

Reviewer: moira4eku (Signed) · Date: 20/05/09 09:48 AM · On: Chapter 8

I really enjoyed your story, and I am so glad that they killed the bitch together!

Author's Response: Thanks, I really had a lot of fun writing it, so I'm glad you liked it.

Reviewer: justannanow (Signed) · Date: 19/05/09 11:41 PM · On: Chapter 8

Nice ending! The boys are getting it back together, Ruby is killed by both brothers (loved that in Lucifer Rising too), and things seem to be back to Winchester normal. Definitely held my attention throughout the whole story.

Author's Response:

Yeah, that was what I really loved about Lucifer Rising, too. It couldn't be any other way, really.

Glad you liked it, thanks a lot for the review. 

Reviewer: zz1989 (Signed) · Date: 19/05/09 08:26 PM · On: Chapter 8

I am sorry to see this one come to an end, but I enjoyed it while it lasted. 

Author's Response: Thanks, I really enjoyed writing it, too. Glad you liked it.

Reviewer: marian_dnsg4l (Signed) · Date: 18/05/09 05:35 PM · On: Chapter 7

*sobs*

Why? Why couldn't it have been this way in the real show?

*sobs a little more*

I love this so much... it's amazingly written, I can picture every scene perfectly, and the last one was just beautiful in a bittersweet heartbreaking way... Sam's "And each other" was the end of me, why couldn't they talk things through in the show? *curses Kripke*

Anyway... awesome chapter, looking forward to the epilogue :)



Author's Response:

Thanks!

And yeah, something like that on the show would have been nice, but we always have another season to look forward to ;-)

I'm really glad you enjoyed the story, thanks a lot for the review. 

Reviewer: Midge (Signed) · Date: 17/05/09 09:24 AM · On: Chapter 7

"I have one suggestion for you, though." Dean said, his face muffled against Sam's collarbone. "The next time you're going all Baywatch on me with the CPR thing? Take a breath mint before you start. Just in case."  Close on the best sentence of this whole brilliant story. You have Dean's speech so spot on I can picture every facial movement and hear his voice perfectly.

Oh how I wish the TV series could achieve this level of honesty between the boys - or maybe they have (ep 18 tonight) but somehow I doubt it.

Glad we still have more to come, I will miss this story when it's complete.



Author's Response:

Wow, thanks so much.

And I'm not going to spoil you if you're only at episode 18 where you live *zips mouth shut*

I'm really thrilled to hear that you like this story so much, and I have to admit that I'm rather fond of that particular scene as well. Thanks so much for the review! 

Reviewer: justannanow (Signed) · Date: 17/05/09 01:00 AM · On: Chapter 6

Are you going to post the epilogue soon? I've been waiting since I've saw this on DeanDamage.com.

Author's Response: I'm working on it today. Real life didn't give me much time to write lately, but today is solely reserved for writing it.

Reviewer: Swellison (Signed) · Date: 12/05/09 11:14 PM · On: Chapter 6

Another stunning chapter, like how Dean and Bobby are on the same page that Sam is going to tell them what happened right NOW. And I like how Dean went from absolutely furious at Sam for putting himself at risk to understanding exactly why Sam put himself at risk. Waiting for more!

Sue



Author's Response:

Thanks. I'm working on the epilogue, I hope I'm going to get it finished today.

Thanks for the review, glad you liked the story so far. 

Reviewer: CatzEye (Signed) · Date: 06/05/09 08:50 AM · On: Chapter 1

I'm so glad to see this story being posted here, now - as I've been reading it on FF.net (I'm Vampyvii over there:) - Anyway, I just want to say that this is an awesome story -- and so very well written -- even worth a re-read, somewhere down the road -- Excellent!

Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm thrilled you're enjoying the story so much - no matter where you read it ;-) Thanks a lot for the review, and I promise I'll put up the next chapters as fast as I can.

Reviewer: cheria (Signed) · Date: 04/05/09 12:15 PM · On: Chapter 6

  Loved it!!!!! Good job---I couldn't stop reading it!

Author's Response: Thanks a lot, glad you liked it.

Reviewer: saltnburnem (Signed) · Date: 03/05/09 10:35 PM · On: Chapter 6

Yeah.  Sammy's got Dean on the mend.  Hope he's telling the whole truth.  And I still don't trust Ruby!  Keep 'em coming!


Author's Response: I will, I will. Don't worry about that. Glad you liked, thanks a lot for the review.

Reviewer: Midge (Signed) · Date: 03/05/09 05:42 PM · On: Chapter 6

Wonderful chapter, so good to have some good news for a change.

Love Bobby's comment "Give yourself whiplash in your eyes, why don't you..." so funny a wonderful antidote to all the angst of the last few chapters.

I still want more though.



Author's Response:

There is more to come, I promise.

One more chapter plus an epilogue.

For now I'm really glad you enjoyed this chapter, thanks a lot for the review. 

Reviewer: saltnburnem (Signed) · Date: 02/05/09 12:46 AM · On: Chapter 5

Y'know you can't trust a demon!  the cliffies are killers, but I'm glad you posted Ch.5 so quickly.  I'm hangin' on!!!


Author's Response:

Yeah, but cliffies are so much fun to write ;-) Chapter 6 should be up by Sunday, thanks a lot for the review.

Reviewer: Swellison (Signed) · Date: 01/05/09 08:57 PM · On: Chapter 5

Oh, this is a nice, meaty chapter. Sam's big crapppy plan doesn't work out the way he wants it to, which big brother Dean knew all along. I was wondering how you'd handle the hunt, since the story so far has been steeped in Dean's pov. So we get Dean's perspective of the hunt: the endless waiting for it to be over (which I'm thinking is more like Sam's perspective from childhood). Love the Godzilla references, which of course bring up the Benders, and another time that Sam got in over his head and Dean was left frantically trying to find and save him.

Sam did seem to gloss over Ruby's remark that Dean would be dead shortly, and then you ended with Sam's apparently failed hunt and Dean's descent into darkness....Yikes! and Fwoop! and where's the next chapter (and I'm screaming that as loudly as Dean's earlier mental screaming!)

Sue



Author's Response:

Lol, the next chapter should be up on Sunday.

And I was indeed deliberating whether or not to stick with Dean's pov during the hunt, too - when the hunt was actually happening far away from him.

But I think in the end (once you read chapter 6 and 7), it comes together nicely, though I'll let you all be the judges of that.

Thanks so much for the awesome reviews, I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such detailled comments on the story. It means a lot.

Thanks

Reviewer: Swellison (Signed) · Date: 01/05/09 08:17 PM · On: Chapter 4

Wowee, damn fine chapter, Sam figured it out! Your Dean pov continues to be captivating, compelling reading. This does read like a magic scene--the scene that. once you have it plotted and visualized, MAKES you write the story.

And I love the fwoop ending, Sam realizes exactly what Ruby is!

Sue



Author's Response:

This scene, or rather this chapter and Sam's revelation that Dean is in fact alive, was what indeed made me write that story.

I wanted to write something that would force them to confront that underneath it all they still care so much about one another of course, but more than anything I wanted to write this scene where Sam finds Dean's heartbeat.

And it was totally worth struggling through Dean's paralyzed pov, which wasn't always easy to write, for that chapter. 

Reviewer: Swellison (Signed) · Date: 01/05/09 07:35 PM · On: Chapter 2

Wow, what an awesome couple of chapters. I was reading this last night--and I really shouldn't have been, since it was after midnight on a work night, but it was irresistible. I did find the willpower to quit here, but no time for a review.

Gripping first chapter, and I recognized the KHK story immediately. Boy, do you get into Dean's head! Loved it.

And I love the thud/fwoop chapter endings, too. SPN and NCIS tend to throw something big out there just before the commercial break -the actors on NCIS refer to this as the fwoop scene (mimicking the sound that accompanies the drama).

Off to read more!   Sue



Author's Response:

I LOVE the fwoop scenes ;-) Big fan of NCIS here, and while I never made that connection before, I feel flattered that you compare it to the chapter endings.

And yeah, KHK's story is amazing, when I read it this idea was in my head and simply didn't want to go away. I was so thrilled that she had nothing at all against me writing it. 

Reviewer: Midge (Signed) · Date: 01/05/09 02:57 PM · On: Chapter 5

Oh my, what has happened? I'm guessing that Sam had a run in with the witch, probably killed her and expected Dean to be better, and he's not.

Oh heavens, I hope you have the next chapter ready to post, 'cos I don't think things are looking good for either Winchester.

PS. I do like what you did to Ruby, but did Dean have to watch? I'm not sure that was wise of Sam - I love the way Dean threatening to have a long talk with both Sam and Bobby over their crappy planning.



Author's Response:

Well, I do have the next chapter ready, so it should be up by Sunday, if that helps you any.

As for the other point, I guess for one Sam didn't think the conversation with Ruby was going to get to the point of him losing control like that. Also, I needed the setup for later, lol.

Thanks a lot for the review. Glad you liked. 

Reviewer: Tree66 (Signed) · Date: 01/05/09 02:51 PM · On: Chapter 5

Awesome... this filled a huge need I had to have Sam put Ruby in her place (even if this isnt show canon). It still felt good.

I love the strain you've put Dean in- being able to hear but not interact- I could just see him seething at the chance to smack Ruby in the mouth.

 And now Sam's back and not in good shape- YIKES...

Well done- cant wait till the next chapter.



Author's Response:

I'm right there with you as far as putting Ruby in her place is concerned. But alas, I think canon took Sam quite a bit away from that.

Seriously though, I'm thrilled you enjoyed this so much so far. Thanks a lot for the review. 

Reviewer: buttercup (Signed) · Date: 30/04/09 02:35 PM · On: Chapter 4

OMG OMG OMG!!! Really loving this story. your writing is great and the story is progressing wonderfully. Sooo glad Sam realised that Ruby had lied to him - the bitch

Can't wait until the next time

Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm really thrilled that you like the story so much, thanks for the review.
