Oh you are just a big fat tease Jules, telling me you have finished the tale then only posting a chappie at a time!!!

Then cursing Dean with thumb sucking ha ha ha! (Wonders - Do I fess up to my own guilty secret thumb-sucking?? - nah, too embarrassing...)

Lots of lovely touches from the town called Casper to the kneeing of Sam's nuts, what a lovely description that was - so kudos to Cookie6 from me too!

Hey ho, so now I have to decide, do I go for the childhood memories of the weekly comic landing on the mat, or wait for completion and read it straight through???? Decisions, decisions.



Author's Response:

Actually, with very few exceptions, all of my stories are finished at time of posting - or at least, the final chapter is with my beta by the time the first chapter goes up. It's my insurance policy. I have a chronic illness which affects my joints among other things, and because I work in an office all day, some nights my hands are so sore that I can't write when I get home from work. So I write when the muse strikes and the pain in my hands isn't too bad, and save it up for a rainy day, as it were. Because for me, there is nothing worse than starting a story, then having irregular updates. I hate letting my readers down like that. My hands, and my real life schedule, can cope with once per week so that's what I stick to. And if the condition spikes and I can't write for a few days, at least I'm not stressing about chapters not being finished.

Thank you for that - yes, Dean's certainly being affected in a weird way by whatever it is that's affecting him - lol.

Cookie6's man-bits comes from a beta-ing email sent by her to me for the epilogue of Here At, actually. It was a comment she'd left on a scene I'd written, and my freaky little brain filed it away for future use because it was such a funny line.

Anyway, am rambling - thank you, Anne-Marie, and hopefully I'll see you next week.

Great start to this story sis, you do humour with such finesse!

Just what is up with Dean?  Don't think it is linked to the possible hunt of the disappeared hiker, the motel seems fine and the warlock was history before they got to Shoshoni.  They both stepped in ash and Sam is not affected but Dean did slip slightly on something but again, only ash was on his boot.  And one of the Winchesters had a light hover over his foot whilst asleep!  Weird!

Gotta laugh though at Dean suddenly developing a fetish for thumb-sucking, something he pointed out to Sam that he grew out of at a younger age than his sibling!  And not surprised he didn't want to risk going back to that diner as he wondered if he'd been sucking his thumb when he went in there on the coffee run!

Loved Petra's man bits line, thought of her when I read it!

Sam is right, it's going to be a long night, and a long week for us to wait until Friday and the next instalment!

Hope Optus is soon up and running but thank goodness Chris' net is still working!

Author's Response:

Thanks, sis - even more so when you know the battle I had with this one.

Hmm, you've raised some very good points - lol. They did both step in ash, and there was a hovering light, and the warlock was history, and the motel did seem fine....and I'm going to just sit here grinning smugly and not give anything away - LOL.

Oh, Petra's man-bits! That came out of a beta-ing email for Here At while you were in the air - or frantically packing. Can't remember which it was now.

Optus is up and running again, as of Monday night. Took them long enough to fix the comm tower - perhaps their techies don't work on weekends.....

Thanks again for all your help! And the next chapter is going to be even weirder.
