Great!  I love how you can so easily (or seemingly so) boil down the unimportant until you get to the heart of every relationship.  You always have an important life lesson in your stories that gives me insight.

Juliet's reaction to discovering her children were to be part of the next Triad was amusing and smart.  I also enjoyed Ben declining the role of Advisor but committing himself to always be there for his little brothers just the same.  You know he will!

Incredible!!  I love reading aout Gen 2 and how their lives seem to parallel those of the present Triad.  Whne Max drew that symbol in the dirt I almost held my breath because I knew what was going to happen.  I knew it was a demon magnet.

Interesting twist to see things from Dean's perspective now that he's the Guardian and a father and how different it is from when he was the perspective Guardian.  Very life like and realistic!

This story broke my heart.  Even though I know Juliet comes back and stays, it was still hard to feel their pain and heartache.  And Dean was in love with her.  That's monumental---even better than amazing sex.  :)

I'd hoped we'd find out how Juliet and Dean met.  What a small world!  She's related to Pastor Jim.  Now I need to know about Sam and the mother of his children.

A very good meeting.  Not as smarmy as Dean could have made it and not foolishly romantic either.  What good fortune that Dean has found a woman who iseems to be as against commitment as he is. They're both in for a surprise!

Love the quote by Charles Wadworth!  How true that statement is.

Your stories always seem to have a nature/nurture vibe and how the two work hand-in-hand.  Very cool!

I'd never thought of the conflict in surnames when a child comes into a new home.  wow!  What an identity crisis that could cause!  But we all know that with the guidance of the three Musketeers, Ben will do what's right for him.

How sweet that Caleb had his name legally changed to Ames to honor his father.

Fabulous!  It's cool to see the third generation of Winchesters and who they're becoming, who they tend to follow in traits.

“What’s with the we stuff, Damien?” Dean stood, smirking at his best friend, who was as bad if not worse than the boys. “It’s not like we’re married.”

“Dude,” Caleb folded his arms over his chest. “Face it. We’re a little married.” - Can't tell you how much I loved this line.  Really great story and a great ender to a wonderful summer of Legacy's.

I'm going to have to print these out and add them to my Brotherhood collection....Enjoy the new season!! - Kel ;)  

This was so good. And I feel for Dean, trying to avoid the mistakes from the past but needing to use some of those mistakes anyway. It's a hard road that most parents walk even without the supernatural elements. I enjoyed this summer of fluff and hope we'll see your take on what happens in season 5.

decided to review here this time. Loved the update. Im really intrigued by Malachi especially having met him in conversations. I love the next generation, and seeing thier dynamic here.

I really hope you will continue to do the occaisional story with the kids - even though you are moving onto your season 5 stories - which im very excited for. Ive grown to love these new characters as much as your other oc's and i just really hope your next chapter isn't the last we see of them.

Loving this.

Thanks for the note about where Malachi Harris showed up before, it was bugging me. I could remember the name and the image of him appearing is vaguely familiar but I cannot remember the rest of the story. I shall have to go back and read your season finale again - such a hardship - not!

I sense that this adventure is going to be a hard lesson learned for the boys and that they will all pay better attention to their hunting lessons from now on.

And finally why don't I think the approaching lights / hunting party is the Winchester cavalry? I can't help the feeling that things are going to get worse before Sam, Dean, Caleb and Ben arrive to save the day. 

Already longing for next week.

 

Sometimes Ridley I think you are pyschic. Yet again you present a story that closely resembles a tale I wished / hoped you write. A tale of Dean, Sam and Caleb protecting / saving the children from the supernatural.

I'll admit that Dean channelling John was not in my thoughts, but I understand it's necessity.  I love that he still manages to feel guilty for every bad thing that happens to his family. I love that Ben is giving him a hard time over Triad issues, and I wonder how long it will be until James, JT and Max figure it out and what the fall out will be. 

I always look forward to your writing and I am certainly eager to read the continuation of this story.

Thanks for sharing.

Wonder why Harland is coming out of the woodwork now. Can't be anything good, that's for damn sure. So glad that Joshua finally saw his father for what he really is.
