You have such a great way with words and this one shot - your first - proves that you have always had that talent, only it keeps getting better. Loved this lonely lurch into the amber haze with Dean. Exactly how I'd imagined him after Sam left. Great job! Abi.

Poor Dean....that Jack isn't going to taste very good on the way back up. I took your advice and read Meeting of Minds first. That made this bar scene all the sadder, knowing what had prompted it - the fight in the car between John and Dean that led to Dean storming off. Heartbreaking that he missed Sam so much. But then, Sam was always more Dean's kid than John's, so that line about getting a girl, having a kid, and watching him run off to college was doubly poignant. Sad, but a great read. Thank you. Jules

aw. poor dean. i really enjoyed that the more hilarious his thought process was the more hurt he was. a good towing of the line of comedy and tragedy. although...some one should get that poor man a glass of water.
Author's Response: Thanks Anna, I think a glass of water would probably grow legs and run for the hills if it got anywhere near him...lol Thanks for the review...XX Louy

Awh Lout, this is sad. Tell ya what let's you and I go get him and once he's puked (I'll rub his back whilst he does) we'll get him home and tucked up in bed and watch him sleep. i'd love to just watch him sleep! Bird x
Author's Response: Watching Dean sleep...hmmmm...Sorry, drifted off there for a moment. Sounds like a plan to me. Go get the car, we got work to do. Thanks for the review birdie and hope you like the others in this series.

What an awesome story. I just love the perspective this story was written in. I can really picture Dean drowning himself in a bottle of Jack and remembering the past. Well, done. Kari
Author's Response: I'm so happy about the response to this, wasn't expecting it at all. Thanks for the review, Kari - I'm so glad you liked it.

This little scene is perfect for a oneshot – just a moment in time. One bar, one night, one bad scene. Doesn’t need to go anywhere, point made, very nicely as a matter of fact. You turning “Jack” into a character, a companion for Dean reminded me of that song: “Cause I've got friends in low places Where the whiskey drowns And the beer chases my blues away” ...Jack sure was a low friend to Dean this night. But I’m pretty sure that Dean would consider himself Jack’s low friend this night. Your infusion of Dean’s memories and commentary sure helped Jack along in this task of ramping up the wallowing and pity.
Your outstanding line which was the most revealing in terms of Dean’s misery is where the commentary and memories melded into one; “Maybe I could do normal after all? Get a little peace of mind, a little place somewhere, fix cars, get me a girl...have me a kid...then watch as the little shit grows up and fucks off to a college of his choice, a million miles away!'” WOW, so very, very telling; the root of Dean’s misery laid out bare for us. And if we were in any doubt, you pushed Dean to his limits with his recollection of the letter. A very compelling, well written and thought out piece. Top marks!
Author's Response: Thanks Cookie, I always love to get a review from you as they are always so thoughtful. A lot of writers may disagree but I find one-shots harder than long stories, this one certainly took a lot of work. But I'm always open to find out what works and what doesn't. And your review has inspired me to write at least a few more, and experiment a bit - thanks for that Cookie!

Great job! Very drunk and disorientated yet somehow so understandable. lol, I'm not sure if that makes sense but this was very good! -Jen
Author's Response: Ahh! Thats because when I'm drunk on Jack - I become the most profound and understandable person on the planet. lol So Dean's gotta be the same. (not that I've ever touched a drop or even know what Jack is for that matter ehem!)
