Reviews by mizpah Summary: The boys take over a hunt that Bobby started. It looks like a simple salt and burn, but when are things ever easy for the Winchesters?

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Ah, Dr Connell fell for those deadly puppy dog eyes. Wait till she gets them full force when Sam's better.....he is going to get better, isn't he?....*bats own puppy dog eyes in a pleading gesture*.... At least now Dean's awake and getting better. Sam really needs him. He won't settle until he knows Dean's all right. But oh, that temp of his - that's brain-fryingly high. *starts to shake worry beads and chant*.... Jules Author's Response: Oh those puppy dog eyes, who can resist them. Well I for one are pretty good at it, after all my kids try that all the time on me. And I would have loved to see you shake the worry beads and hear you chant. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9 I'm hitting that little button, hun. See?*hits button*... No one, not even Bobby, can get through to one Winchester brother like the other one can. Only Dean could have broken through Sam's fever-induced fugue and convinced him that everything was all right. And only Sam could have pulled Dean out of the despair he was feeling by giving him something to hang onto. I loved that little quiet moment of reassurance between the brothers, and Bobby's revelation about their bond. Fingers crossed that things are looking a little brighter now. Jules Author's Response: I see you are still reading on, you brave warrior. You are so wonderful. Thanks so much. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 10: Chapter 10 Oh no.....*presses hands to chest*... I've had pleurisy - twice...no, three times. It's not fun at all. Hurts like hell to breathe. So I can sympathise with Sam. So glad that Dr Connell called in the best help - but I have a feeling that Bobby is going to doubt the quality of that help now that Sam's had a reaction to the new medication. That rattle and wheeze and then the ominous silence - that was horrifying....*gulps*... Oh, Sammy..... Jules Author's Response: I'm sorry you had to go through this kind of pain three times. I never had it, just dealt with the nursing aspect. I hope you will never again get it. And you might be surprised by Bobby, after all, not even the best doc can predict an allergic reaction. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11 Thank heavens for Bobby and his tough love, bringing Dean back from the brink of despair like that and reminding him that he can't give up on Sam. What a rough time of it Sam's having. And poor Bobby - could feel that internal flinch when Dean said that they seemed to be cursed, and his tension when Dr Connell finally came out to tell them the latest news about the youngest Winchester's fight for survival. Hold on, Sammy - just hold on. Jules Author's Response: I admire people that can be tough for others even though they are crying on the inside. There is definitely a lot of love here. Thanks again for this awesome review. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12 I have no doubt at all that Sam is indeed responding to his brother's voice, and that's what's healing him just as much as the barrage of antibiotics and treatments he's on. That was so encouraging when Sam tried to squeeze Dean's hand. Dean's excitement just leapt off the page. And that was a sweet little awww moment when Dean got back from physio and Sam woke up just long enough to look over at him, recognise his big brother and drift back to sleep again. Can understand the doc's reticence in his assessment, and not wanting to instill false hope. But you're right, he doesn't know what sort of powers Dean's talking about - nor what sort of power the elder Winchester brother can wield. That bond will drag Sam back into the land of the living. Oh, and so glad Bobby's still there. Is he getting sweet on Brenda? Jules Author's Response: You picked up on Bobby and Brenda how great. I thought about it for a while but then decided not to go to far into it. Hugs, Vonnie

Author's Response: Wow, this was quite the reaction. I hope you are okay and I don't owe you the money for a hospital stay for a heart attack. I see there are more reviews, so I hope you are alright. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 14: Chapter 14 Yep, well, you scared the living shite out of me. I had no idea it was a nightmare. And what other mean, nasty authors put you through that kind of torture! Names -I want names!!! Dean was dead right - only he could save Sam. That was a bad moment when Sam was trying to tell Dean he was coming to join them. I had tears in my eyes. And I could clearly see Sam clinging even in sleep, once he finally realised that Dean was still there and still breathing. Whew - think I need a cup of tea to settle my thoroughly rattled nerves... Jules Author's Response: I'm so glad you are alright. And although I this story quite a while before I distinctly remember two authors by the names of Mizpah and Cookie, who killed Sam after his little power act of closing the door to hell again. Well at least they let me think they did. I think I'm going to send you some Camomille and Valerian tea for your nerves. That should help settle them. Thanks for continuing to read anyway. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 15 I love Sam's hair. And after meeting Jared, I love it even more. It's a lot lighter in real life than it appears in the show. But just as shaggy and wavy. That was sweet, Sam lying there pretending to be asleep and just letting Dean and Bobby's voices wash over him. Oh, I could sympathise with him, though, trying to get that gunk out of his lungs. I had swine flu recently, and was coughing up - or trying to - socially unacceptable junk. Man, it was hard to breathe, cough, and get rid of that stuff all at the same time. Especially since I couldn't breathe very well anyway. Yuck - horrible time. So glad that Sam's improving, though. And that's awesome, but typical, of Bobby to insist the boys come and stay with him while they recover. Jules Author's Response: Sometimes I don't like Sam's hair in the show. At least the last two seasons. But I can see why they do what they do to it. Sorry you got the swine flu. It doesn't sound like fun. I know you are susceptible to a lot of stuff because of your lupus. That really has to suck. I loved your line of the 'socially unacceptable junk', it made me laugh, although the whole thing isn't really funny. Shows your sense of humor. I'm glad you got through it. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Awwwww.....that last scene gave me a serious dose of the warm and fuzzies. Good on Dr Connell for reacting so fast when she saw Sam in distress. Thankfully the morphine worked and he finally got some rest. Loved how he woke up in the lift, saw Dean right by his side and went back to sleep reassured. Awwwwwww...... And they finally can talk! Well, for a little while, but still, they managed to give each other an update and soothe each other's fears. Jules Author's Response: Well, at least I could make you feel this way and it might make up for the frayed nerves I gave you earlier. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 18/10/09 Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 17 That was a bit of a worry when Sam wasn't eating much, but can understand how his appetite was trashed. Loved their talk at the end, and Sam's declaration coupled with his patent puppy dog look. Dean never had a chance - lol. And Bobby was right - if one went down, the other would surely follow....or do something really stupid to get the other one back....*sigh*...but we so love them for it. Great story, hun. You gave me some bad moments there, but you fed me enough warm fuzzies to keep me happy and not shouting at the computer screen - lol. hugs Jules Author's Response: Always glad to serve. You really did it and got through almost the whole story in one sitting. Wow, amazing. You are the best and I really have to tell you how much I appreciate you. I wish we wouldn't live so far apart, I'll love to meet you, but I guess I'm just glad we get to write. Hugs and a special thank you, Vonnie Summary:
His steps quickened in time with his heartbeat and that was beating like the wing beats of a bat out of Hell. If he could go a little faster he could catch up with them. "Sammy - hold on, please hold on," he whispered to the air. Set between Jus in Bello and Ghost facers. No spoilers that I know of as I haven't seen the last four episodes of Series 3 yet, so if this tale doesn't quite work with the rest of the series, my apologies. This is NOT a death-fic.

Date: 24/10/09 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Yuck - hate rats. A mouse once jumped onto my arm and ran up it, and I've never forgotten that horrible shivery feeling its little claws caused when they dug into my skin.....*shudders*..... Meg is a class A b*tch. But oh, Sammy - he burned off his tattoo??? Not good - definitely not thinking with his upstairs brain. But that just showed how desperate he was to save his brother at any price, including sacrificing himself to do it. Loved Dean in full-on tracking mode, too. He really is an awesome hunter - they both are. Jules Author's Response: Thank you, few people thought Meg would be back, but I always had the feeling she would somehow... Rats....sometimes they get into my flat roof, and at night you hear the claws skittering over your head!!!!! Or it could be a poltergeist of course!!! Need a Winchester for that I think...mm which one I wonder, nah both I think...lol Jacq Summary:
Alone and broken, when a hunt goes wrong, what will he risk to save his brother again?
Story's better than the summary, I promise!

Date: 06/10/09 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Wonderful lunchtime reading - I've been meaning to catch up on your stuff for ages. I love the imagery you've established - the scene was painted extremely vividly in my mind - the rain, the hunters lashed by the storm, Dean's worry and desperation as he carried Sam from what was obviously a hunt gone VERY wrong. His relief at finding the cabin, followed by the overwhelming despair again as he tried and failed to bring Sam around. And I was with Bobby - my heart in my mouth as I heard Dean's "I can't...I won't..." Thumbs definitely up. Actually, up so high the thumbnails will probably come back down with snow on them. Jules

Date: 06/10/09 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2 Oh my gosh, what is Dean doing? This does not sound good. Especially that last line..."...and aprice would have to be paid." That coupled with the fact that he seems to know who - or what - is coming for him - that's enough to send chills down my spine, despite the warmth of a typical Brisbane spring day. And Sam, bleeding, gasping for air, possibly dying. That's just fuelling Dean's desperation. Great chapter - really, really tense. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah Signed
Date: 06/10/09 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3 A demon? Or something else - something worse. That statement about there having to be a crossing sounds really ominous. Tell me - am I having another over-40's moment - I feel I've read this before but I can't remember if I ever reviewed. *shrugs*..oh, well - have some more. It's an awesome story. Creepy card players, the storm still raging outside, the stakes high, Sam possibly dying in the background, and the haunting stranger - hell of an atmosphere you've created, hun. Awesome. Jules

Date: 06/10/09 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4 Tension's really drawn out now - if I had curtains in the office I think I'd be fisting my hands in them too. Love the mental imagery you've painted with Dean leaning against the glass, separated from the rain and not seeing it. And Sam's voice in his head, urging him not to stop. So poignant. Jules

Date: 06/10/09 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5 So it was Death he was playing cards with. Holy moley..... I really thought when Sam cried out that Dean had lost - that he'd gambled and swapped places with Sam. Bobby's desperate race to save the boys came through so clearly - could feel the tension as he alternated between the road and the petrol gauge. And then that last lunge into the cabin when he heard Sam cry out his brother's name. Really great story. Think I need a cup of tea to unwind after that - I'm all tensed up..... Jules Author's Response: Wow, what a way to wake up... I'm really glad you liked this story - I was never quite sure if it worked (can ya say cryptic?!) but you picked up everything I wanted to do! Thanks hugely for the reviews, enjoy the tea, and I hope your thumbs've thawed out... Cal Summary: A short scene between Sam and John shortly after Dead Man's Blood.

Date: 02/07/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Very nice! I enjoyed it immensely. Have to admit, though - I'm not a fan of John, but you showed a side of him that he didn't often reveal, and in such a way that was true to character. Thanks for sharing this. Jules Author's Response: Thanks for reading! I'm glad you don't think I went off character with John, I find him very challenging to write. Which is probably why I always had a thing for him. Well, that and (and don't go quoting Freud on me here) damn is the man sexy... Summary:

Date: 08/09/08 Title: Chapter 1: Slappity Slap Slap Winchester Wet War - seriously, what's not to like? Ooh, those towels HURT!!!! Lovely imagery with the water droplets and the towels all hungry and panting for some smooth Winchester loveliness to wrap around/slide down. I think I want to be a water droplet..... Thanks for this - gave me a nice ending to a really tough day. Jules Author's Response: Thanks for reading and reviewing - nice to know other people appreciate the smoothness as much as the towels did, LOL

 Date: 17/10/08 Title: Chapter 1: Sleep TIght, Sleep Tight, Don't Let the Bedbugs Bite That was lovely - and I adored the symmetry of the last bit. And that made perfect sense that they would have trouble sleeping in a room on their own, having gotten so attuned to each other's presence. I had a giggle at Ida's little squeak - but oh, I have to say, that sandwich description? Now I'm hungry for roast beef and herb bread..... Lovely, Vanessa - as lovely as those two toned bodies.....*drools happily all over the keyboard*.......Jules Author's Response: I can remember being hungry for that sandwich when I wrote the story. And I think now I'm hungry for it again. lol Hmmm, maybe I'll put that on my grocery list. I'm incredibly happy that you liked this one, Jules. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a wonderful, kind review. Summary:

Date: 01/11/09 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Definitely like it, hun. And reviewing - see? This is me reviewing...*types away like mad on the keyboard*.... Lovely opening scenes of the boys rocking along to Akka Dakka - well, Dean anyway. And Back In Black - excellent choice. But this hunt sounds already as if it's going to be a bit more than the boys expected, especially with Sam being haunted by those eerie eyes in the painting. Dean's right, there's something not right with that. Wonder whether the spirit - if it is a spirit - has been affecting Sam from the moment they hit town, or if he really was just starving and focussed on his research. Could imagine Dean's look of shock when Sam hoovered up all his own food and then starting pinching Dean's. And now Sam's had a mysterious and violent pain in the head, right after feeling as though those painted eyes were watching him.... The plot, as they say, thickens. Great start, hun. Jules Author's Response: I'm tickled pink (or as my daughter says piggled pink) that you are reading another one of my stories. I sure you will enjoy the whole thing as much as you obviously do the start. And thanks for the review. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 01/11/09 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2 Oh, no, that wasn't good - the ghost has her hooks in Sammy! And she threatened Dean to do it! Love Dean's make like a tree and leave comment - laughed out loud at that one. But oh, Sam should have told Dean about the eyes following him around. And they definitely shouldn't have gone back into that room - but then, they're hunters - that's what they do. I have a feeling that Rebekah's next victim isn't going to be Dean, but Sammy..... Jules Author's Response: Glad to make you laugh. You are pretty spot on with your suspicion here. Thanks for another great review. Hugs, Vonnie

Date: 01/11/09 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3 So worrying for Dean, first finding Sam confronted by the spirit, then realising the salt guns were out of reach, and finally getting zapped by Rebekah, only to wake up to find his brother out cold and unable to be roused for a while. And now Sam's showing some really strange behaviour. The sprit has latched onto him somehow. It was probably her influence that has made Sam lose his memory and want to get to the house later than planned. But oh - that blow to the head - when Dean comes to, he's going to do some serious butt-kicking - Rebekah better watch her step. She's on borrowed time now that she's hurt Dean's baby brother. And poor Sam - how is he going to feel when he snaps out of it and remembers all this? Jules Author's Response: This is going to be a tough one for Dean. Rebekah isn't what she seems she is and so things aren't going to be easy. Anyway, both of them are going to be in it deep. Thanks again for reviewing and for being such a sweetheart. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah Signed
Date: 02/11/09 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4 Yep, I was right - Sam's feeling dreadful over what he was influenced into doing. Rebekah's got him completely under some sort of spell, especially now that he's uttered what seems to be an incantation - binding spell, perhaps? Binding him to her? So, was she a witch? Poor Dean, waking up and finding his brother gone, then finding Sam back at the motel..... *begins to chew on fingernails worriedly* - Oh, Sammy - I knew he'd be doing something terrible once she told him to go do what he needed to do to make her belong to him. And it was obviously the Impala's keys that Sam took from Dean's pocket - for a moment I thought it was a weapon. I hope that motel clerk moves his butt and calls the ambulance ASAP! Oh, Sammy.....*sniffles* Jules Author's Response: Sorry to make you cry again, I wonder how many boxes of tissues I owe you by now? Thanks for another great review. Hugs, Vonnie |
