Beta-reader:

I make my home in a small little house in upstate New York. It's not much, but it's mine and that's what matters.  By day you'll find me toiling away at a hospital as a secretary.  By night, I'm a writer. My secret life if you will.

While Supernatural is my current favorite obsession, I enjoy writing for several different fandoms--Emergency, Starsky & Hutch, and the Leandros Bros. books by Rob Thurman. I'm also a published author, having two books of poetry ("Doorway to a Soul" and "In the Quiet Stillness") out there.

I love to make friends and meet new people.  Supernaturalville has provided an incredible opportunity to do just that and it's been a blast.  Writing and reading fanfic is really one life's great pleasures.

I agree with lam, Dean on a train just never gets old.  Mmmmm.

And him lying on top of the train as it speeds through the tunnel with mere inches between him and the top.  With the friction burning his back-------LOVED IT!

Nice update.

Here ya go---a big bag of M&Ms.  Loved your update.  I didn't think it was too much "telling".



Author's Response: Thanks so much for the feedback Vanessa!!! I know most people want action and whumpage, but I just felt that there were some things that I wanted this story to "tell" and I had to get them out in this chapter..... And thanks for the chocolate!!! Always need more fuel to keep those homefires burning!!!

OMG--I was just peeking again at this story and realized that I never did a final review.  I LOVED this story.  Absolutely LOVED it.  Just had to take a moment to tell you that.

Author's Response: Thanks, Vanessa - I'm glad you liked it. I have a soft spot for the humour ones. I have two more on the drawing board...Jules

BTW, I forgot to mention that I loved the scene with Dean and the rats.  It was incredibly creepy, and Dean's absolute terror is palpable.  And believable.  The way he's hitting at himself and Sam's trying to stop him . . .  ((sigh))

Author's Response: Hmm, yes - I seriously creeped a few people out with that one - oops! My poor Dean - and I have more torture planned for him in the next two chapters - naked, tied down, and about to be the marshmallow at a bonfire....Jules

This chapter really had me laughing!  Dean's reaction to having to go to a vet was great.  And the whole muzzle and thermometer thing--man, that was funny!

Great addition!

And then I said to Uncle Davis "If you beat Sam I'll tell my Dad" and he said, "What if I beat you instead?" and I said . . . I said okay . . .

Ahhh, this just broke my heart.  Even though I knew what was coming.
