Reviews For Cry For Help

wow...nice missing scene.  So sad that Sam had to go thru it again.  Glad Cas was there to help this time.  Dean was sure in a bad place back then.  Never heard the song before. Gonna have to look it up!

Author's Response:

It's an oldie - back in the eighties, I think, or very early nineties. And yep, I'm showing my age now - lol. 

I heard it on the radio one day, and even though I'd heard the song a thousand times before, something made me stop and listen to the words and apply them to the Winchesters. It just seemed to fit really well with a tag to MBV - another episode where they ended way before we were all ready. 

And yes, I think that was when Dean was almost at rock bottom. It wasn't long after that when they were dumped in the bastardised version of heaven and he made up his mind that the only way out of the mess they were trapped in was to say yes to Michael.

Thanks so much for reading.

The end of this episode broke my heart and so I have been very happy that many great fan fiction writers like yourself have taken on making a proper ending for it.  Hated it ending on hurting boys!  This was a great - and more bearable ending to what happened -so thanks for that! :)

Author's Response:

Thank you, Claudia.

It was a gut-wrenching ending with Sam screaming and sobbing for help, and Dean breaking down. And I know a lot of people did tags for it, but I just had to throw my hat into the ring as well. 

Thanks once again. I'm thrilled you liked it so much.

Heart wrenching story, Jules, but very well done - as always. That episode was heart wrenching before there at the end...but now...I can't even describe it.

I love that you did a little drabble to this story, it was so interesting. Especially since last time Dean didn't let Sam out of the safe room so he wasn't there when Sam was done drying up - although that never technically happened as Sam got a hold of Ruby and got another fix. Then after he opened the cage God helped Sam to dry up. So there wasn't an aftermath but I love your take on this one. To see how hard it was for Dean to see Sam in that state...that alone was heartbreaking.

But Sam's disappointment and disgust with himself when he finally came around, that was just as heart breaking. The fact that he didn't want to look at Dean, or didn't want Dean to look at him made me want to cry. It wasn't really Sam's fault though - it wasn't as if he was searching out demons to drink their blood, Famine had sent the demons to him and hard as he tried he couldn't resist not with Famine making it impossible for people to resist their desires. That guy using a toilet brush to get more twinkies down his throat for example - that was extreme...I wouldn't want to use a toilet brush knowing where that thing goes :)

I loved the ending, Jules. Another great piece of work and such a touching brotherly moment that rarely seems to come around anymore. I look forward to starting your next story - think I'm almost caught up now. :)

P.S. Married life is going great. I love being married. I don't really see my husband that much anymore though - he got a day job and he has school at nights so I don't see him at all Monday - Thursday unless I get off work before he goes to work and work is busy for me right now so that rarely happens. But I've got enough to keep me busy I guess and three dogs to keep me company so I'm not lonely for long. :) Hope you are doing well as well. :)



Author's Response:

Hi, Candace,

Glad to hear you and hubby are doing well. 

Thank you. I don't usually write tags, but this one just sort of sneaked up on me and bit me on the ankle. 

And you're right, Sam didn't actually go through the whole drying-out process either time because of intervention. And his shame at succumbing to the addiction was shown in the episode, both when he first told Dean he was hungry for it, and at the end after Famine was dealt with, when Sam had trouble meeting Dean's shocked gaze. 

Thank you again - so glad you enjoyed it, hun. The brotherly moments are still there....we just have to look a lot harder for them these days.

This was a brilliant tag, very emotional to read, i love to read tags, always makes an episode more compleat and you did a wonderful job. I'm a bit behind on my reading as my mam's been in hospital for a month so lots of running around but i will get around to reading number 50.



Author's Response:

Hi, Lindsay,

 

Oh, gosh, I hope your mum's doing better now. Is she home yet, or still in hospital? Hope she's improving. 

Thank you for that. It came to me out of nowhere - I wasn't even listening to my usual radio station, but my aunt's, as she was staying with me for the weekend. But the song just triggered the muse....*shrugs*....my mind is a weird place sometimes. 

And don't worry about catching up - just give yourself some time. I'm not going anywhere. 

Best wishes to your mum.

Jules, I'm long overdue in reviewing one of your stories - I've read them all and there's not a bad one yet!  I was actually over in Oz a few weeks ago (I'm in the UK)and brought one of your stories with me so that I could read it on your home turf. Anyway, just a word of thanks for this one - just what I needed.  After Dark Side of the Moon, I'm worried about where the boys' relationship is going and it was great to have a little story where they just care about each other without any recriminations.  I hope this is what they get back to in season six.  Keep up the good work - I love your stories and always keep an eye out for when you have a new one up.  Broken Images and Here At the End of All Things are the places I go when I'm feeling a bit down and want to feel better.  Thanks for these and all the others,

Justine



Author's Response:

Hi, Justine,

Were you the one who emailed us during Here At? How are you doing? I hope that you're going okay, all things considered. 

Oh, you were over here? Which part? I'm in sunny Queensland, just a tiny bit north of Brisbane. I hope you enjoyed your holiday and that it wasn't too hot for you. We've just finished our summer, and February had some horrid days. 

I so know what you mean about Dark Side of the Moon - wasn't that ending just....ugh, worse than MBV in terms of breaking our hearts. Oh my gosh...*flails*... I hope they get back together soon, too, and repair their brotherly bond that we've all missed so much. They really do need each other. 

Thank you so much for your feedback. It's very special to me. I'm a nervous Nellie at the best of times, and to hear how my stories have touched people -well, I can ask for no better blessing. If you ever want a copy of any fics, please don't hesitate to ask, and I will email you the Word document complete with story banner. 

Take care, and thank you again. It was lovely to hear from you.

i will, and not to make it for us a chick-flick moment. . .if you remembre correctly that i was running to a very short cliff edge at one time or other; but i like to say thank you for being a friend and allowing your scriptures to stay float amongest the living. in some way or other i feel like the character of SAM and dont laugh. . .we may not know each other just yet. i do feel like you are the character of DEAN and your scripture is of the 67' CHEVY and at time's like Daddy WInchester . . .Thank you. could i also get a copy when you can or just the hell of it give me all your copies so i dont ask and bother you for a copy. Of course, when you can. There is no rush, and how is the kitte?

Author's Response:

Hullo, Ivonne,

Yes, I do remember very well. And I'm glad that I could help a little, even though I couldn't answer your questions very well. 

Thank you - and most certainly you can have a copy. You can have a copy of any story you wish - just name it, and I'll email it to you. Your email is in my address book. Hopefully you will have this by now - think I sent this one to you. If not, let me know and I'll shoot one over.

Reviewer: penmin (Signed) · Date: 04/04/10 05:55 PM · On: Chapter 1

I intended to add a review straight off but I went a little adrift, anyhow back now so... 

It was just so personal what Dean did for Sam in cleaning him up. And Sam's absolute trust in Dean to allow him to do this. Even though for part of it Sam was out of it,  was heartrending. Dean did it with such sensitivity. And they still really do rely on each other. Very intense.

So a Mizpah-drabble hey!! lol. Very good, thanks for adding this. Lets hope that something will improve for them all soon.

Jacq x



Author's Response:

That's all right, Jacq - I tend to do that too, when I'm pressured. I fall back to being a lurker if life is a bit too stressful.

I think Dean needs someone to take care of. And I think that with Sam being so broken, even though it was hard and he was ashamed, Dean would be the only one Sam would want to see him in that state. He needs his big brother just as much as Dean needs him. 

And I really needed to see that connection between them at the end - that was a harrowing final scene. As for improving....oy.....seen episode 5.16?

I won't spoil it for you - I'll just say OH....MY.....GOSH.......and reach for the tissues again....

Jules

Reviewer: bia1007 (Signed) · Date: 27/03/10 04:29 PM · On: Chapter 1

Couldn't think of a more perfect way to describe what love really means and that one brother without the other couldn't be. Dean's cry for help - and it was a heartbreaking one - was answered though, as he is Sam's lifeline, Sam is Dean's, as Dean knows for certain his little brother didn't fail and is all human (he showed it in such a loving and tender way when he took care of Sam), Sam knows and assures (and bless him for this) Dean Famine was wrong and he's not empty, not dead inside. Wonderful!

Author's Response:

Thank you, Sabine.

No eye-hugs in this one, sadly, but a little bit of hope and connection. 

Oh, I'm so thrilled you got that Sam's little statement at the end was actually Dean's answer to his prayer. They are indeed each other's lifeline, even after all the lies and betrayals - on both sides, including what the angels have done. And I never believed Famine - Dean is definitely not dead inside. Broken, but very much alive. 

Thanks, hun.

Jules

Reviewer: Tree66 (Signed) · Date: 27/03/10 10:08 AM · On: Chapter 1

Just a beautiful piece hun. SO very tender in that brotherly way that only Sam and Dean can manage. Dean's concern to help soothe Sam's worry that he's something less than human- and even as he drift's off- Sam's reassurance that Dean still has worth... still has that 'thing' inside him that everyone BUT Dean recognizes - love.

If only Dean could just find some peace...

Again- so beautifully done! Loved it!

Tree



Author's Response:

Yo, dude! So great to see you up and around.

I tell you, I'm going to need all the tenderness I can get hold of in the run-up to the season finale. Geez, I don't think I've got enough fingernails to see me through! 5.16 was TOUGH!!!!! That ending...aaargh! And I thought the MBV ending was heartbreaking....

You're right - Dean's definitely not empty inside. The Horseman was wrong. Dean's fierce love of his family has always burned with a very bright flame, no matter how dark things have been around him. And I don't care how many freaky psychic powers Sam manifests, he's still human, and still a good person on the inside, despite what he's done. 

And damn it, they need each other! They've always been stronger as a team. 

Thanks, hun. I'm really glad you loved it.

Wonderful Drabble Jules!

Author's Response:

Hi, Denise!

LOL - well, everyone knows I just don't get drabbles. So this is my idea of a nice drabble. I mean, why write a hundred words when you can add a couple of thousand more and have a nice little one-shot? 

Anyway, enough bleating. Thanks so much for sticking your head in the door of this one, hun. So chuffed that you enjoyed it.

I don't want to waste a lot of chitty-chatty words, that can't ever even begin to come close to telling you how great this is...so I say instead...

PHENOMENAL!

Sunshine,
Karen

Author's Response:

Thank you, Karen.

Oh, you do me great honour. I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much. 

It sort of came out of nowhere - as I said, I was working on a 5.13 tag (which I still haven't finished, by the way), heard that Rick Astley song on the radio, and something clicked. I think I wrote this in one night - or pretty close to it. 

But I needed that ending after seeing the boys so broken and beaten down. 

Thanks again - and sunshine to you, too.

Jules

Reviewer: Oceane (Signed) · Date: 26/03/10 10:25 PM · On: Chapter 1

What an emotional one shot. Dean's prayer and when he watched Sam's detox're heartwrenching moments. I loved the way Dean took care of Sam, he was so gentle with him. And the ending, so touching, with comforting words, they helped each other to feel whole again. Beautiful piece of writing Jules.

Author's Response:

Hullo, Lise,

Aw, thank you so much. Dean's prayer was heartbreaking, wasn't it? Oh my gosh....he was so broken, so at the end of his rope. Not even Sam to turn to, as he was deep in the throes of detox and hallucinations. 

I'm really pleased you loved the brotherly moment at the end. I wanted to give them a little bit of hope and peace after what they'd been through, and a bit of connection to the bond they'd once thought could never be broken. I'm still hoping it will be repaired by the end. 

Jules

 Dear, sweet, and gentle.  Comforting. And hopeful even while it was heartbreaking. Loved it. Thank you!                 Jo 

Author's Response:

Hi, Jo.

Thank you so very much. I have a Pollyanna soul, and I need hope to survive. I think the boys do, too, in their dark world with all its burdens. And who better to give each man hope than the brother he holds dear, despite everything that's happened to them. 

So glad you loved it. The aftermath just begged for a quiet brotherly moment.

Jules

Reviewer: vonnie836 (Signed) · Date: 26/03/10 08:00 PM · On: Chapter 1

I definitely liked it a lot. You put a lot of emotions into this one. I really wanted to wrap my arms around Dean and cry with him. Having to listen to his baby brother suffering through withdrawal for three full days and then go in and find the mess it left him in, that was heartbreaking. He held it together, yet I don't think he could have managed without Castiel. To actually see what Sammy had to go through, I felt for him. And then Sam finally woke and although he tried to spare him the talk, Sam's guilt didn't let him. I really liked how he made his little brother understand that it wasn't his fault and that he really didn't blame him. Even more important, that he still sees him as human. What a wonderful story of how Dean feels about his brother, how he cares for him, no matter what. The end though was significant to me. Sam gave back to Dean, although he was already almost asleep, he let his big brother know that Famine was wrong. That shows how Sam feels and in a way is a thank you to Dean, at least in my eyes. Great "drabble". Hugs, Vonnie

Author's Response:

Hey, Vonnie,

I did put quite a lot of emotion into this - Dean's face and broken prayer at the end just tore my heart out and stomped on it. As did Sam screaming desperately for help inside the panic room. 

And no, I don't think he would have held it together as well if not for someone to lean on. The cry for help in the title applied to both brothers.

I think that Sam must have heard what Famine said to Dean, because it wasn't long after Famine's statement that we heard that wonderfully deep, chilling voice demand to let his brother go as Sam quietly but menacingly came to the rescue. Sad as it was to see him ramped up on demon blood again. But I loved how threatening he was. 

LOL, glad you liked my idea of a drabble, hun.

Awww, thanks, Julie. I'm so glad you liked it. I needed a brotherly moment after the harrowing end to that episode. And I think that I'm going to need lots more brotherly moments in the weeks to come......

Thanks so much for reading, hun.

that was lovely and so powerful. Those two boys are getting so broken it's almost too hard to watch, almost. Fantastic tag, just what I needed to get me through to Monday night.

Author's Response:

Aww, thanks for that. They are getting so damned broken - pressure is on them from all sides, and I'm beginning to wonder if there is going to be anything left come the finale. I mean I know there's going to be a season six, but there's no reason one of them can't come back as a ghost......

Scary thought.....don't read this, Mr Kripke! 

Oh, and I see Channel 10 finally got their act together. But they still stuck the boys after GNW, which STILL runs overtime.....B**tards.....

Jules

Reviewer: Micaiah (Signed) · Date: 26/03/10 02:52 PM · On: Chapter 1

I'm glad you touched on one thing that really bothered me:  why didn't they lay a salt line or something when they locked Sam in that bathroom?  They left him locked up and defenseless.

Nice one shot, Jules.



Author's Response:

Hey, Sonya.

Yeah, that wasn't good, leaving Sam supernaturally unprotected. Dean did what he could to make sure Sam didn't bust out, but he gave no thought to what could bust in... 

So I had to sort of tidy that little omission up, if only in my own mind. Like the buzzer incident..... I'm not sure whether it's just where the boys' heads are at with everything going on, or the writing team, but I wish they'd stop it. 

Jules

Reviewer: supernaturalfan (Signed) · Date: 26/03/10 02:09 PM · On: Chapter 1

Hey Jules

I am loving this one shot. You're just getting better and better at them all the time.

Two things: Your paragraph on Dean's thoughts about missing detox the first time because "someone" let Sam out early. Yes, that bugs me as much as you and I love how you through that in there. Also, Dean's description of how he sees his brother in that paragraph was sweet and spot on. I see him that way, too.
Thanks for bringing up that Dean should have drawn a devil's trap or even a salt line outside that bathroom door. I thought the same thing. He might have been in to much of a hurry for a devil's trap, but how long does it take to lay down a salt line. That bugged me, too.
Enjoyed this one shot, and I look forward to your next. Take care friend. We'll talk soon.
Jane



Author's Response:

Hi, Jane,

Thank you. I've been doing a few of them lately, haven't I? Must try to get back into some multi-chapter stuff..*winks knowingly*...

It does bug me, especially since Cas knew that Sam didn't have all the info at his disposal but he still bailed Sam up during 5.06 about making the wrong choices. I do love Cas, but I thought he was being a bit of a hypocrite there - or he had a very short memory....

That, and the altered phone message - it bugs the hell out of me that those two things haven't been dealt with on the show yet. I'm really hoping they come out, not because I want to see a rift between Cas and the boys, but I want Dean to see that they were being manipulated all the way along by heaven and hell. And that what pushed Sam over the edge was in fact his changed message. It might go a long way towards healing the rift that still exists between the brothers. 

And give Sam some measure of comfort in knowing that it wasn't all his fault - that he had angelic help as well as demonic in breaking the final seal. 

Oh, and yes, no devil's trap and no salt line - Dean, what were you thinking? And if Dean forgot, why didn't Cas say something? Not good when they're that sloppy. Not good at all. 

Thank you, my friend. We definitely will talk soon.

aw... *sniffles* that's so put me in the mood for the new eppy now! Lovely one-shot - so disgustingly vivid, heh, and such a wonderful sense of reconnection between the boys.

 In all this, there was one line that really got to me:

'Shame.

God knew he'd seen it enough times in his own eyes to be able to recognise it in his brother's.'

It's such a simple little reference, yet it evokes so much of their history, and it made me wanna hug them both, sweat and all... Man, they've been through so much...

Awesome! Hope Kripke's paying attention!

:D

Cal

 

 



Author's Response:

Hey, Cal! How's the weather up there? Stopped snowing?

Hmm, well - I wasn't sure how far to go - and I really felt bad having Sam in that mess, but I figured it probably would have come down to that in the final hours when he was really out of his head and at the end of his endurance. 

And yes, I wanted to hug them both at the end, too. It was heartbreaking. Both of them hitting rock bottom and trying to battle with the aftermath while they were both so broken and hurting. 

Thanks again, Cal. It was great to have you along for this.

Jules

Reviewer: ziggy (Signed) · Date: 26/03/10 08:13 AM · On: Chapter 1

Absolutely awesome tag Jules, wish Kripke had added something like this to the episode, but thank goodness we have authors like you to do what he didn't!

Loved how heartfelt Dean's plea was out in Bobby's salvage yard and typical that no answer revealed itself in the dark clouds.  To have to see Sam in withdrawal for a second time must have really torn him apart.

You perfectly described Sam in the aftermath of the withdrawal, a physical and emotional mess, but loved how Dean gritted his teeth against the smell and he and Cas cleaned Sam up.

And typical that Sam would be guilt ridden and blaming himself for being weak when he finally regained consciousness but Dean saying he told him as soon as he started to be affected showed how much Sam was fighting against it - no secrets between them however hard it was to admit.  And yes, had a Devil's Trap been at the door the demons may never have got in.

Perfect ending, can imagine Sam not wanting to be left along and spot on him saying  Famine was wrong about Dean, there is so much heart in the elder Winchester.

A really great read sis, fantastic tag.

Sarah



Author's Response:

Aww, thanks sis.

Yes, I can imagine how tough it was on Dean the second time - and Sam, too, for that matter. The way he dropped his head in shame back at the motel just broke my heart, when he admitted to Dean that he was 'hungry for it'. And of course, Dean missed the aftermath of the detox, because Sam didn't actually go all the way through the last time. 

Quite a few people have been surprised that there wasn't even a line of salt across the bathroom door to protect Sam - that is so unlike Dean. Petra mentioned that perhaps it's a reflection of just how broken Dean is becoming, that he's forgetting the basics. I'm hoping it's that and not sloppy writing.....

Thanks, sis, for all your help on this one, especially since I pulled a bit of a switch on you at the last minute - lol

Wow! Loved it! That brotherly moment at the end was so... wow!

If this is #49, I can't wait for #50! Still thinking about writing something special? Hope so, and I'm sure the muse is going to cooperate (she better!).

Dany



Author's Response:

Hullo, Dany.

And thank you so much. Actually, I needed that brotherly moment at the end myself. MBV had such a gut-wrenching finish that I ended up with a serious craving for a warm and fuzzy moment, Winchester-style, just to make me feel better. And the boys, of course. 

I am indeed thinking about something special for number 50. Well, I had four chapters of something special, then I sort of got derailed a bit - like this story wasn't the tag I'd been working on for number 49. I'm writing a story based on an idea by a long-time reviewer of mine, and frantically trying to get a couple of chapters finished and off to my beta before this Friday as I'm sort of on a deadline....

But if I say any more, I might give the plot away....then I'd have to - you know - kill you and stuff....

ROFL

And please, you can beat my muse any time you want - she won't listen to me any more  - lol. 

Take care,

Ooh, I got three wows. Thanks for that - I'm really stoked that you loved this. I don't usually write tags, but there have been so many awesome episodes this season that just begged my muse to dabble in a few missing scenes, so here we are.

Yay, you are back and you've brought a wonderful gift for me!!! Yay....*happy dances*

Okay, sorry about that, just got a lil bit excited. I always look forward for your stories and as soon I got the alert, I was like* woohoo...a new story *

This story is just fabulous. I can't explain it in a word. That episode MBV'd really shaken me up and I really wished I would get to see some panicked Sam locked in panic room. The way you explained each and every part, it brought tears in my eyes. Aww Sammy, poor boy had suffered a lot. But Dean, I just... Dean's plea and tear just too much for me to take. Poor Dean, he loves his brother too much, he even prayed to God for his brother, he cried for his helpless sibling.... filth and stench could not make him leave his brother's side. And Sam, aww....he is so good, so good. He tried hard to control himself but failed. He admits it and that's what about him, attracts me the most. He never gets afraid showing love, feelings, affection, sorrow anything. My favorite part is, when Sammy was trying to eat his soup and failed and looked at Dean with teary sensitive eyes...that reminds me young Sam who wants his brother beside him always. I can see everything through your story and that's the reason I love all of your fics.

Love it.....

Ritu. 

 



Author's Response:

Am I back? *looks around in confusion*....oh, I must be...

Settle, petal. Don't fall off your chair. LOL. 

That was a pretty powerful episode, wasn't it? I didn't know who to feel more broken-hearted for, my beloved Dean or 'darling little Sammy'. I think I went equally teary over both of them, actually. 

Actually, despite my definite Dean leanings, I do have a great deal of sympathy for Sam and his struggle for redemption. Dean was right - Sam isn't evil, he was just high on demon blood and being pushed in lots of subtle ways.

So glad you liked the story, hun. And I think I owe you an email, don't I? Will get to that later tonight.

Reviewer: Amberdreams (Signed) · Date: 26/03/10 04:26 AM · On: Chapter 1

Oh my - Rick Astley!??  Not what I was expecting there dude!

I am amazed how many of us were inspired to write tags to this one - and now having watched the following episode this morning, I am amazed the real writers didn't realise how powerful MBV was and have totally missed the chance to put their own stamp on what came next... Very strange.

Your interpretation has actually left me with a stronger image than I had before - and with a different song to accompany that last scene in the scrapyard.  Now I can hear the Gethsemane scene from Jesus Christ Superstar.... which is interesting and maybe sparked by a fic I read last week, which made Dean the white horseman...but the song didn't appear in my head until I read your version.

So thanks for that, Jules!



Author's Response:

Um....well, I feel I should perhaps defend myself a little here.

When a song triggers the prompt for a story, it's the words that actually get my muse firing. Sometimes I actually have to hunt down the song to find out who the artist is, if it's one that I'm unfamiliar with. And in this case, while I'd not ever suggest that Dean, or even Sam, would be a Rick Astley fan in their wildest dreams, I think that the words to that particular song just fit what they were both going through at the end of that episode. 

Anyway, hope that makes sense.

Thanks for reading, Anne-Marie - I hope you liked it.
