Loved, loved this story! First you make me cry (poor Sam), and scream and seat on the edge of my seat (you do not trow Dean off a cliff! you bad woman! ;-) ), then you make smile and go all awww (Sam praying for his brother!) and then you make me laugh (just the idea of seeing Cas with a party hat, lol) and worry about Dean and you finish it with a nice chick flick moment (and a perfect one too).

Well done Micaiah!

Dany



Author's Response: Aw, thanks Dany.  I feel like I did something right if you felt all those emotions.  Sorry I threw Dean off the cliff (well, not really).  :)  Gotta have a little Dean whumpage!  Thanks again!

Great story!  I love Sam and Dean.   I also like Bobby and Cas so it was double bonus having a great story that included them.

Author's Response: Thank you so much!  The boys have to have Bobby and Cas to help them through everything! :)  I'm glad you liked the story.

Great job, Sonya!  No problem with the chick-flick moment.....you should be proud, and celebrate your accomplishment!  More importantly....you got your party hat on??!!LOL:)


Author's Response: Thanks Terri!  Yep, got my party hat strapped on but I don't look nearly as endearing in it as Cas does. :)

great story!

Author's Response: Thank you so much!  I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Great ending. I thought it was great idea to give Dean a birthday party and have Cas wear a party head. But the best thing was their talk and Sam finally having hope. I'm looking forward to your next story. Hugs, Vonnie


Author's Response:

I appreciate all the support you've given me Vonnie!  And yes, I couldn't end the story without restoring Sam's hope.  I so want to see that done on the show! 

Thanks again!

Nice chick flick moment to end the story of your life! Hey and less of the pretty old, what does that make me?  Ancient!!

Love the image of Cas in a party hat, of course Dean would crack under all that attention but pulling back into the brother dialogue to make Sam see his own worth was also spot on - Deano wouldn't indulge himself and wallow for too long if Sammy needed a boost.

Now you need to have a few ideas for your next one....we'll expect more long ones from now on you know!



Author's Response: Yes, that would make you ancient, AMB! :)  Kidding!!  I have a few ideas for another one but don't know if I'll write another long one right away.  Maybe during summer hiatus but you never can tell!

Reviewer: tomash (Signed) · Date: 21/01/10 06:32 AM · On: Chapter 11

Nice ending, really liked this story.  Hope to see a new one from you soon.  K.

Author's Response: Thank you so much!  I have a couple of ideas brewing for a new one so hopefully you'll see one soon!

Reviewer: darkhunter (Signed) · Date: 21/01/10 06:09 AM · On: Chapter 11

You can have as many chick flick moments as you like lol, thanks for writing this wonderful story,i've enjoyed it very much, the ending was lovely.

Author's Response: Aw, thanks, Lindsay.  I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 21/01/10 05:15 AM · On: Chapter 11

Bring on the chick flick moments - there should be more of them - LOL.

I for one am glad that you got the opportunity to re-pursue your childhood dream and write, even though the journey to this point was hard and at times heartbreaking. But you're a great storyteller, and your passion for the boys really shows through.

Thank you, not only for being brave enough to post and allow us to read your wonderful work, but for that awesome mental image of Cas in a party hat, noisemaker in hand. ROFL!

Poor Dean - he almost completely lost it in the end. And I loved what he said to Sam about God not answering the prayer of an unworthy soul. I hope that somewhere along the line in the show, Sam gets his faith restored.

Thank you again, Sonya. I look forward to the next one.

hugs

Jules 



Author's Response: Thanks so much for all your support, Jules.  I really appreciate it.  And I'm glad you liked the image of Cas in the party hat.  I can see that so clearly in my head and it's hilarious. :)

Reviewer: vonnie836 (Signed) · Date: 20/01/10 02:45 PM · On: Chapter 10

Yeah, Dean is going to be alright. I think God had it planned all along, but he was waiting for Sam to ask for help, for him to save Dean. Castiel was great, encouraging Sam to pray and telling him the story of Paul. I really loved how you brought this all into this chapter and showed the love, forgiveness and saving grace God has for us. Loved this chapter. I'm going to be sad to see this end, but I'm confident I'm going to see more stories from you soon. Hugs, Vonnie

Author's Response: God is in control, you know.  Regardless of what Zach and those other idiots think. :)  And God can forgive anything if we just let him.  I truly believe that.  Thanks Vonnie!

Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 20/01/10 02:30 PM · On: Chapter 10

I had tears in my eyes for pretty much the whole chapter. That was so poignant. 

One of the saddest things about season 4 was the steady erosion and eventual disintegration of Sam's faith. He was the one who believed in angels and God, yet he was the one tainted by demon blood and cursed before he was born. It was just so tragic, and his faith made up a huge part of who Sam was. 

So that was a lovely moment in the chapel with Cas trying to help Sam pray. 

Looking forward to the reunion between the brothers when Dean wakes up. 

Jules



Author's Response: Aw, thanks Jules.  Yes, I agree.  Seeing Sam's faith stripped away was one of the most heartbreaking things on the show.  I really would like to see it restored.

Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 20/01/10 02:24 PM · On: Chapter 9

Ooh, I was right - that did hurt. Poor Dean lying there so broken, dying - wishing on a falling star to get back to his brother. That was so sad. 

And Sam, the shock of seeing his brother cradled in Cas' arms, lifeless and bleeding - is it going to push him completely over the edge? Will he try to make a deal for Dean's life?

I loved God coming to the rescue, answering both Cas' and Dean's prayers. And I could just imagine the shock on Lucifer's face when that lightning bolt came out of nowhere. Wonderfully done. 

Jules



Author's Response: I wish God had just struck Lucifer with that bolt of lightning!  :)

Reviewer: darkhunter (Signed) · Date: 20/01/10 06:40 AM · On: Chapter 10

That was a lovely chapter, it's wonderful to see Sam praying and Dean being healed.

Author's Response: Thanks!  I love the thought of Sam praying.  If God is answering his prayers, you would hope Sam would regain some self worth.....

Reviewer: Amberdreams (Signed) · Date: 20/01/10 03:28 AM · On: Chapter 10

Touching... Cas was strong in this one, especially from Sam's view point.  Your own faith is evident here.

Author's Response: Thanks AMB.  I'm glad it's evident because I've not been doing a very good job showing it elsewhere.....

Reviewer: saltnburnem (Signed) · Date: 19/01/10 10:09 PM · On: Chapter 10

Cas and Dean are becoming more alike....That's funny but true.  I forgot about the amulet....good tie-in!


Author's Response: I do think Cas is picking up a lot of things from Dean but he really shouldn't let Dean take him to a brothel anymore!

Reviewer: saltnburnem (Signed) · Date: 19/01/10 10:06 PM · On: Chapter 9

Ouch.  Major Dean whumpage!  Glad cas had someone to back him up, ie. the big rain-maker upstairs.  I like how you keep Cas in character:  “He wanted a minute. I gave him that. Now I’m going to keep my promise.”  :) On to the next chappie!

Author's Response: Thanks Terri!  I couldn't have a story without some Dean whumpage....well, I guess I could but I like it so much! ;)

Reviewer: vonnie836 (Signed) · Date: 19/01/10 09:17 AM · On: Chapter 9

There is no need to end this fast. I love this story. If you are struggling, I would be honored, if you want to bounce thoughts of me and I'm sure a lot of the others would be too. I really like your Castiel. He is picking a lot of Dean up and also is no longer just following orders, but actually is taking the initiative at times. Great job. Hugs, Vonnie

Author's Response: Thanks Vonnie!  I'm glad you like Cas.  He's been one of my problem children for some reason.  I'm sending you an e-mail. :)

Reviewer: darkhunter (Signed) · Date: 19/01/10 07:15 AM · On: Chapter 9

Another great chapter, as i've said before i can't see any thing wrong with this story, or any of the chapters, loved the chapter ending with Cas lol.

Author's Response: Thank you so much!  I really appreciate the encouragement!

Reviewer: Amberdreams (Signed) · Date: 19/01/10 03:18 AM · On: Chapter 9

Don't mean to be picky but I think you meant Dean to land on a ledge in a precipice in the first para...a precipice is a sheer drop/rock face - unless it has a different meaning in the US (which wouldn't be the first time)!

Otherwise -  Love Cas pulling a Dean and getting the hell out of Dodge; obviously love Cas to the rescue; can't hear anyone using the words 'sit a spell' without echoes of the YED; love how literal Cas is in giving Sam his minute.

Hope you make good use of your day off to update again soon! I am wondering how you will finish...



Author's Response:

Oh, I made really good use of my day off.  I was on FB all day! :)

Reviewer: vonnie836 (Signed) · Date: 18/01/10 08:00 AM · On: Chapter 8

i'm so glad the boys got some sleep and are feeling better. I just wish Cas and Dean wouldn't have rushed into this thing. Now they are in big trouble. I'm trusting you that Dean isn't going to die, but what is Lucifer going to do to Sam? He obviously knows were he is and with only Bobby there, I wonder what's going to happen? Great update, can't wait for the next one. Hugs, Vonnie

Author's Response: Thanks Vonnie!  Cas just rushed headlong into this didn't he?  At least Dean was mistrustful of the demon rumors but it didn't help him much in the long run.  Whumped Dean coming up! :)

Reviewer: darkhunter (Signed) · Date: 18/01/10 05:39 AM · On: Chapter 8

A very good chapter, well Dean and Cas walked right into Lucifer's trap, can't wait to find out what happens next.



Author's Response: Thanks!  Dean and Cas really should have been more careful, don't you think?  They know you can't trust a demon!

Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 18/01/10 01:47 AM · On: Chapter 8

That. Is. Going. To. Hurt.

So glad the dreamcatcher worked, and both brothers finally got a good night's sleep. 

But oh, crap, Cas just walked into a trap, and dragged Dean with him. Well, it wasn't Cas' fault, but still - he should have known better than to trust a demon. All they do is lie. 

And now he's trapped, and Dean's become Lucifer's frisbee. Things are definitely up the creek in a barbed wire canoe and no paddle in sight. 

Sam's going to schitz when Dean doesn't reappear in a reasonable amount of time. Or is Lucifer going to torture him with word of his brother's death to make him lose hope again and say yes?

Scary times ahead. 

Jules



Author's Response: Cas was a little careless, wasn't he?  He wants to find his Father so badly that he's taking chances he shouldn't.  I think the brother's can relate to that.  I would say it's a good thing Dean went with him to keep him out of trouble but it doesn't really appear to be a good thing for Dean, does it?

Reviewer: Amberdreams (Signed) · Date: 18/01/10 01:31 AM · On: Chapter 8

Poor old Cas, trapped again.  There was me thinking you'd be wrapping this up and instead there's more to come - bargain!  Is this where we find out that Dean can fly......??


Author's Response: Cas really needs to start paying attention, doesn't he?  I thought maybe I should have just stopped at the last chapter but that wasn't what I had planned from the start so I'm trudging on.  Maybe two more chapters....possibly three.

Reviewer: saltnburnem (Signed) · Date: 18/01/10 12:29 AM · On: Chapter 8

Man! Talk about a cliffhanger!  Literally!  Shoulda known the intel was too good to be true.  Are you telling me the devil went to Tennessee, instead of Georgia!!?  ;)


Author's Response: LOL  Terri!  Somebody should have told Lucifer about that song!  But you know, I just wanted Dean in Tennessee. :)

Reviewer: darkhunter (Signed) · Date: 17/01/10 08:14 AM · On: Chapter 7

Nothing wrong with this chapter, i liked it, i'm glad that the dreamcather seems to be working, maybe poor Sam will be able to get a bit of peace.

Author's Response: Thank you Lindsay.  I really appreciate that. :)
