Real name: Natalie Brown Status: Member Member Since: 21/12/07 Website: Beta-reader: Hi there! I am a 34yo female from Melbourne, Australia. I am a huge Supernatural fan - one could say obsessed, but I figure I am in good company! I happened across this site a few months ago and have been "lurking" ever since. While I won't be submitting stories myself, I wanted to be able to offer reviews on some of the awesome stories I have read. Keep them coming!! Reviews by Taliena Summary:
Who was the handsome stranger brought to the mental institution in the dead of night - and what terrible tragedy from his past had reduced him to a broken, empty shell?

Date: 23/12/07 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Great story! I'm loving the twists - keeping me on the edge of my seat. As a fellow Aussie, I am also enjoying the translations, my favourite so far being the elevator/lift paragraph. Looking forward to your next chapter!! Author's Response: Thanks for that - it's nice to write in my own language, as it were, for a change. To say lift instead of elevator, biscuit instead of cookie, and a hundred other things that translate a little differently across the oceans. Speaking of oceans - I just have to indulge in a tiny shout of Queenslander! as Wild Oats XI just won the Sydney to Hobart (not gloating, honest). Hope you like the next chappy - and thanks for reading...Jules Summary:
Dean sat on his own bed and stared at the wall for hours, then put his face in his hands and sat like that for the rest of the night. Sam thought he heard him crying for a long time. Sam hated that he couldn't get over his fear. He hated that he had nightmares. He hated that he was scaring Dean. Sam hated himself for his weakness.

Date: 03/01/08 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2 Great Job! I like how you've written Sam's panic reactions to the water, and the 'unspoken' communication between the boys. Keep the chapters coming!! Summary:
Sam is plagued by multiple visions of Dean burning alive, leading the brothers into a dangerous hunt that could have dire repercussions for the young psychic. Set just before the Season 2 episode Roadkill

Date: 18/01/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Oooooh! Great start! Very intriguing... I look forward to your next installment! Summary:
Whilst visiting Pastor Jim in Boxborough Massachusetts, Dean is hit by an uncomfortable sense of Deja-vu, whilst Sam has the uncomfortable feeling that the Pastor may be hiding something. What is it about this picturesque New England town, that could be so terrible that Dean has blocked it out and Jim is happy to keep it that way? Many Thanks to the Brilliant BulletBabe and her awesome Banner making skills - I LOVE it Louey!

Date: 06/04/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Great start! I am intrigued as to where this journey will take us... Looking forward to your next chapter. Thanks for the review and the thumbs up on the first chapter, I am glad you are enjoying it so far!:-) Although I have the outline for this story, it is still "freely-forming" - still I hope not to keep you waiting too long between postings. Glad to have you along for the ride and would love to hear your opinions on the route I'm taking. (Don't worry I am done with that metaphor now!!! LOL) Abi. Summary:
Sam Winchester discovers the most important strength is wielded from the heart. **This is a tag-on to Season One's season finale. Say that three times fast. There are spoilers for Season One only.

Date: 17/04/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 'Beelzebug' and the Bible Great story - very funny! Author's Response: Hey Natalie, thanks for that and I'm glad you enjoyed...XX Louy Summary:
A seeming random meeting in a bar spells trouble for Dean and Sam. Set sometime after BUABS so anything before that is fair game. As usual I own nothing. The wonderful Winchesters and Supernatural belongs to Mr 'Evil Cliff Hanger' Kripke and the CW. Put as an M for now as I fully intend this to get bloody at some point! Please note that however this may look at some points this is not a deathfic. Thanks for reading and as usual reviews are blood, need them to write.

Date: 26/06/08 Title: Chapter 8: Epilogue Great story, Mary. Loved the tie in's with previous episodes, particularly Bloody Mary. Thanks for posting! Thanks I really wanted to do the tie-ins especially the Bloody Mary one (something to do with the name perhaps?)but was afraid they wouldn't work properly, so I am grateful for your review. Thanks again The other Mary x Summary:

 Date: 20/06/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Fantastic story, Mizpah! I was killing myself laughing - tears and all - especially during the first half. Loved it all. You capture the boys and their relationship so well. Awesome! Thank you - and please feel free to call me Jules. Well, that pleases me that I could make you laugh out loud. Means I did my job properly. And of course, the boys do give me such good stuff to work with...Jules Summary:
Tension mounts between the brothers - is it just Dean's deal or is something more sinister at work...

Date: 27/06/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Great first chappie, Jules! You capture Sam's mind in "overdrive" very well - loved Sam's reflection on: "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends," Sam quoted softly. "Substitute ‘friend' for ‘brother'." I look forward to where you take us next! Author's Response: Thank you for that - glad to have you along. I'm a Dean girl, and I make no secret of that fact, but I do love Sam, and I think (hope) I understand how he ticks. He's just as complicated as his big brother, and he's fiercely passionate, which makes him quite emotional - but not in a weak or soppy way. It's quite a challenge to get inside his head sometimes.....Jules Summary:
A Father's Day Story: Sam and Dean find something much more important than the perfect gift when they search for a present for John on Father's Day.

Date: 27/06/08 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6 Great story! I have seen reference to the cmpass in many of your other stories and always liked the meaning behind it. Thanks for the great read!

Date: 10/07/09 Title: Here At The End Of All Things Oh dear! I hope you are feeling better soon, Jules! Thanks to Chris and Petra for letting us know. I had been hanging out for the next chapter and thought it was odd when it hadn't appeared & hoped all was ok. Take care of yourself, Jules. I am thinking "get well" thoughts for you! Author's Response: Thank you so much. I'm taking better care of myself now - I even scared my boss, so he's backed off a bit with my workload and the pressure. I'm on the mend now, thank you. Jules |
