One thing you get used to is the silence when you post. Its one of the most nerve-wracking things!!! The best advice is always to watch those read counts and then to take the reviews you do get- especially the ones like Bird just left that specifically pick out certain passages- and realize that those readers that have taken the time to leave a review are just the more vocal minority ( and its not a reflection in the least of your talent or your efforts!)
SO- having said that. This is an AWESOME piece! First- I love the Serenity Prayer. Its just too bad it never NEVER works for me! hahahahaha!!! I never seem to have the wisdom to know the difference its seems. But, how appropriate it is to have chosen it as a theme for this S2 finale piece.
I loved your word choice at the beginning...
The earth shifts again… tilting, jerking, and pulling. But instead of flinging Dean off the edge and dragging him into the unknown darkness… where nothing exists to hold onto… The eldest Winchester finds himself gently laid back on his feet.
If one weren't paying attention- you could almost think you were describing the start to S4 than the end of S2. Still- A wonderful way to portray how utterly lost and empty in an emotional void Dean is at this point.
And then- I really loved the parallels you drew between their fates and the Serenity Prayer. What could be changed, what couldnt and what Dean was so "accepting of."
Again, so very nicely done!
Welcome to UnGen- I think you're going to fit in here very well!

Author's Response: Thanks. I'm working on a Cas POV right now and I have to say trying to get into that characters head is a bit difficult. lol
But thank you so much...I can't wait to really get going, I've had so many ideas and some I already ahve written....hopefully I can get them up soon.
I'm glad you liked this, I was afraid it would be a bit confusing to some readers, but yo ugive me hope, ;)
