I loved this whole story. My favorite part was when Dean was apologizing for offering to hock the Impala and when Sam woke up and heard him. This was just too awesome.
Author's Response: Ah, I'm so glad your favourite part was the prompt for the story - Sam knowing that Dean once tried to hock the Impala for information on his disappearance. This is almost like a little sleeper story - it went up mid-week, not my usual posting night, so it sort of got lost in the shuffle a bit. But it keeps ticking along nonetheless. Thanks so much, Laina. I'm glad you enjoyed this one. Jules

So, I've been snowed in for five days now. I'm trying to play catch up on your fics, Jules. :) As always, I love your little details. Dean's hand on Sam's chest, the other on the wheel of the Impala...the two things Dean loves the most and he almost lost both. Love, love, love Dean wrapping his fingers around Sam's trembling ones to help him with the bowl of soup. It's these little gestures that show the love between the brothers. I'm such a sap but I just love these boys and their devotion to each other. Sam's inner struggle with the entity trying to take over his body was nail biting and very well done. Great job as always. Sonya
Author's Response: Hi, Sonya - oh my gosh! I can't imagine being snowed in. Thank heavens you still have power. Thank you - I love the little details too. When I'm researching a particular timeline for a story, I'll always watch the episodes before and after when I've set the story just to get into the boys' headspace, and I take note of their little looks and gestures - their whole body language. It's quite fascinating to watch them - and not just for the eye candy - lol. So pleased you liked Sam's internal battle to stop his soul being expelled. I went for broke on that one, since it was really a life and death struggle. Thanks so much for hunting this one down and letting me know what you thought. Jules

This was wonderful. I love how you took the throw away line from Joyride, and made such an interesting story to go with it. :)
Author's Response: Thanks, Claudia. I didn't even notice that little line much when I read Joyride, but Sue glommed onto it, and she actually contacted Katalin and asked her if she was going to do any more with it. Sue gave me three separate choices for subjects - this was her first and third preferences - season 1, and the throwaway line from Joyride. After that, I just let my mind wander off, and it came back with this. Thanks for the feedback, hun. Jules

Well, Dean gave his life for Sam, so what is the Impala after all... Nice oneshot, your bidder must have been pleased. And we, ungen readers, too!
Author's Response: That is very true - Dean did give his life for Sam - and would do again. Thank you, my friend. And thank Swellison - the winning bidder had the option to keep their story as a private thing, or give permission to share it. And Sue is the caring, sharing type, so here it is. Hope that everything is well with you and yours. Jules

Hi Jules, Thank you for a wonderful, satisfying story. Ever since I first read Zombie Joyride, I've wanted to read about Dean almost hocking the Impala to save Sam. I was taken aback to discover that the story was non-existent (but I wanted to READ it). I started thinking the only way I'd get to read it was to write it myself, but then the SS auction happened and I got the winning bid on your story. You took my little plot bunny and wrote Order of Importance, which hits on all the reasons I watch and love Supernatural. Thank you!! Now I can finally check that one off the to read list;-) Sue
Author's Response: Thank you, Sue. And thank you for bidding on me. When you first sent me your story ideas, I wanted to pick the first one as I figured the first on the list would probably be the most favourite. And then I read the third one and thought - why not combine both? I'm chuffed that you enjoyed it - and more than a little relieved - lol. I was a bit worried when I first signed up for the auction that I might have trouble delivering - I can't really write "on demand" as it were. That's why I don't enter any of the challenges. But it turned out all right - and you love it, which is the main thing. So glad you love what I did with your plot bunny. I took good care of it - probably fed it a wee bit too much but meh - what the heck! Thanks again for your little bidding war - I felt rather special! Jules

What a surprise to find another story so shortly after you posted a chapter. It was a treat. So much up to your standards, yet lighter than your joined adventure with Cookie. Awesome though. A good old ghost story with a twist. I certainly can understand why Agnes had her eyes on Sam. The fight he fought against her was well written and scary. I think one of my favorite moments in the story has to be Dean in the library, threatening the librarian and the whole town. The other moment, or rather three that go together have to be Dean ready to give his baby up for Sam, Sam overhearing his apology to his baby and Sam asking him if he would risk his baby for him and Dean denying he ever would. I loved also that in this greedy town there was at least one soul, who decided this wasn't worth it and he risk his life for a higher purpose than to serve a couple of evil spirits. Also to see that Sam was the victim, yet was so much stronger than any before him and hence was able to hold on until Dean came to help was great also. I like Sam strong and fighting even when he is weak. Dean can move mountains for his brother and so can Sam. There combined strength is what makes them almost unbeatable. Hugs, Vonnie
Author's Response: Thanks Vonnie. Yes, I sneaked this one up sort of. You're all so used to me only posting Fridays, if I do it any other day I confuse you! ROFL! Oh, yes, much much lighter than Here At - it was like taking a holiday to write this actually. Oh, you loved the library scene? Dean getting dark and savage and ready to move mountains to find his brother - there's just something about that man in full on big brother mode, isn't there? And yep, there is a core of steel in our doe-eyed Sammy -and we're certainly seeing that in S4. Thanks hon - I'm so glad you loved this. Jules

i didn't realize that you had written another story. So I am late in reviewing please forgive. Made my day to see another great story up written by you. I just loved this one. I just LOVED the brotherly bonding in this one. Dean being the forever big brother he is meant to be. Of course Dean would choose his baby brother ove Sam, but it was great how he had to tell his "baby" how sorry he was. This was just absolutely fantastic!!!!!!!! GREAT JOB as always!!!! Thanks again for all of your talent and hard work. hugs, Jane
Author's Response: I sort of sneaked this one in. Once Sue gave her permission for me to post it, I hopped on the keyboard and popped it up. It was lots of S1 goodness, wasn't it? A bit of a holiday for me, considering I'm halfway through Here At, which is quite heavy going at times. Thanks, Jane - I do love your reviews. They make me all warm and fuzzy. And yes, of course Dean would trade his baby for his kid - any day. Jules
Reviewer: Primrose (Signed) · Date: 18/05/09 07:18 AM · On: Chapter 1
Of COURSE he'd trade the Impala for Sam. I'm just glad he didn't have to! GREAT story!
Author's Response: No doubt, was there? LOL! Of course, knowing Dean, the Impala wouldn't have stayed in the hands of the new owner for very long. Thanks so very much for that. This was actually rather fun to write, once I got the idea embedded in my freaky brain. I'm chuffed that you enjoyed it, too. Jules

A great read, i loved this, i really enjoyed it.
Author's Response: Thank you so much for that. It was a bit of a break for me to revisit Season 1, actually. Bit like a holiday after all the heavy angst of S4. Thanks so much for coming along for the ride on this one, too. I'm stoked. Jules
Reviewer: pinkphoenix1985 (Signed) · Date: 16/05/09 05:25 PM · On: Chapter 1
this is just wonderful! S1 was just pure goodness and it's nice that you've revisited it!
Author's Response: Aww, thank you. Season 1 was a much more innocent - almost carefree - time for the boys. Before all the demons and deals and dark destinies. Their innocence sort of got ripped away in the S1 finale, didn't it? Anyway, it was nice to revisit that time, even if sometimes their relationship was still a little rocky - they were trying to get used to each other again after that long absence. I'm pleased you got a kick out of it. Jules

I really enjoyed this story. You did a great job writing it.
Author's Response: Thank you so much. Sometimes a story will just flow, and once I got the idea in my head, this story was one of those that fell into place rather quickly. So glad you enjoyed it so much. Thank you again for letting me know. Jules
Reviewer: bibikftlc (Signed) · Date: 16/05/09 01:40 PM · On: Chapter 1
Awesome! Loved every word. Thank you.
Author's Response: Thanks for that. It was only supposed to be 2500 words, but it sort of took on a life of its own. I knew where I wanted to take it, so I just kept banging away at the keyboard until it was done. I'm stoked that you loved it. Jules
Reviewer: Miriam (Signed) · Date: 16/05/09 11:44 AM · On: Chapter 1
Loved this... but then I should finally tell you that you are a wonderful writer and I follow all your stories almost obsessively. I should have said this much earlier!!!!
Author's Response: Oh my gosh! Thank you - it really means quite a lot to me when one of my lurkers comes out and lets me know they're there. I used to be a dedicated lurker myself, so I know how hard it is to come forward. And I really appreciate it. And I'm chuffed that you enjoyed this one, too. Jules
Reviewer: Dottyoz (Signed) · Date: 16/05/09 10:50 AM · On: Chapter 1
A thoroughly satisfying story. It had everything a girl could want - hurt Sam, big brother Dean, action, intrigue, the whole shebang. And now I'm going to have to go and read Zombie Joyrides!
Author's Response: Thank you for that. I hope that you enjoyed Zombie Joyride - K Hanna Korossy is a truly great author. And I'm pleased that this little story had everything you could want - it was a fun challenge to write, actually. A bit scary, as I have only once before written "to order" as it were. Thanks again for your review. Jules
