He'd promised to watch out for his brother. He'd promised to save him. Trying to keep his promise might just kill them both when an unexpected and unwanted hunt drags them both over the edge.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 03/05/08 Title: Chapter 1: Balloons and Crepe-Paper Streamers Vanessa, just stumbled across your story. I like it very much. Made me laugh the whole time. Yet, I couldn't help but wonder what terrible hunt lay behind them... Gonna quote some bits: “Dude, that’s a quarter of a century. That’s old!” “Well, you’re older than me—what does that make you?” “Wiser.” LOL, big fit of laughter, a wise Dean, wise-ass maybe... "Even when I was at Stanford, you’d call and sing it on my voice mail.” Now, how about that picture, huh? A singing Dean. Bestest big bro in the world... “Uhh, earrings, Dean?” “Yeah, bro, I thought they’d go nice with your new hairdo, Samantha.” .... ROFL at this one. I had to stop to wipe my eyes. Pick on the injured man, indeed! Way to go Dean. I also loved the coupons. First two made me laugh, on reading the last one I reacted the same way as Sam. Dean giving in to a hospital trip, that's a big prezzie, ain't it? Made my heart beat faster... Thanks for your entertaining story. Cheers, Ilka PS: See you on the next LINKS update, I hope.
Author's Response: Wow--thank you so much for the lovely review, Ilka. I really appreciate you quoting some of your favorite lines as it's good to know that they worked and that you liked them. Thank you for the lovely stars too. Summary:
Just three days before the deal is due, and Sam is slowly falling apart, while at the same time trying to keep secret the ceremony he and Bobby carried out to save his brother from hell. Dean is finding it harder and harder to cope, and Bobby is doing his level best to hold both boys together and do what needs to be done to complete the ritual. So a standard Winchester weekend then! Sequel to 'The Fall of the House of Dream.'

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 12/05/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Long as it takes
Louy. I'm so glad you finally posted the sequel. You know I was desperate to find out about Sam's and Bobby's secret plan to save Dean from the pit. And I hoped you'd bring Burgess's grandson on again. YOU DID! Mind-reader that you are. So I really enjoyed the first chapter. And what a lovely idea to put a banner on each chapter. Cool thinking. Kind of sets the mood for the chapter nicely. So now, my omnipresent quotes: ....Singer psychology 101.... Hilarious. Have a bit of Bobby in my new chapter 13 too. Psychology however. That's hilarious.... ....Raw muscles rippled under hot skin, bunching and expanding with every effort, and with a lifetime of honing his fitness and stamina this body wasn’t about to give up any time soon.... Drooling. Thanks for that sexy image bobbing up and down in my mind, bullet. Awesome.
....too much they were hiding from Dean... Yeah. Shouldn't do that. Sam tends to do it a lot. Even on the show. Makes me feel uneasy. Such secrets are bound to come back and slash out at ya when you least expect it. Know what I mean? ....When he didn’t feel the all encompassing need to memorise every line on his brother’s face, every gesture, every emotion however fleeting, because he was living under the very real threat of never seeing those things again.... TEARS. Tears in the morning. On my day off. Is there a better (haha) way to start a day but with tears spilt on the boys behalf. I don't think so. ....“I trust you.”.... Oh, if that wasn't a moment of openness. A real moment. He shared an innermost feeling here. Quick, go check if demons are building a snowman in hell, 'cos I think, hell just froze over. No. Seriously Lou. How wonderful that Dean found a way to tell Bobby how much he means to him. And then the softest voice.... owh. I can really watch that scene in my head. ....a cold wind blowing behind his eyes... what an image. Cool writing, Lou. Gotta make a mental note never to forget that simile. Awesome. ....The crack in the younger man’s voice... Oh, poor Dean. He's definitely loosing it, ain't he? So close to tears, him and me in that particular moment. Told myself to suck it up, for cryin' out loud! After all it's JUST a story. No, didn't work but thanks for asking. Hang on. Gotta go check if there are any tissues left. ....added ingredients, rancid oil, beeswax and salt.... What an interesting idea. Salt in the paint. Yeah. Likin' it. Should send that to Kripke, Lou. He'll like it, too. The dreams..... Powerful images, very emotional and deeply complex. Poetic to some extent. Very impressed. *kneels down and kisses ground you walk on* That's it. Great update again, Louy. Biding my time till next week... Hugs & Snogs Ilka/RC PS Hope I'm still first reviewer but don't think so. Took too damned long to type. PPS Had to re-edit my first review. Too many mistakes. So might not be first anymore. But I used to be!!! Author's Response: Ilka, got to say your review left me breathless, and sooooo happy. Bev was gutted you beat her to the punch...lol I'm so stoked you liked this first chapter, especially as I'm admiring your work more and more with every chapter you post. Thanks so much my friend!

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 20/05/08 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2 About being sad Louy, I don'tknow where to start. You always manage to reach out to my heart with your stories. This chapter has been no exception to this rule. Still hurting for the boys. Quotes and scenes: THe shower scene was absolutely sexy, babe. Feel I should take one too, cold though. Your description made me watche this bit in slowmotion, I could really see every detail, every tiny droplet running down his body... mmmmh.yummy. The quip between the boys was heartbreakingly funny, made me smile through watery eyes. The moth simile, Lou, that's so worth doing an essay for a literature course on, great idea! The letter to Sam. Lemme just say, after reading this and watching the finale I was in tears. Dean finally managed to voice his feelings... I wonder who the other letter is to. Bobby? ...duckbilled platypus of the human species... sill laughing, and I detest that man wholeheartedly! Weasle damn right! ...A pregnant pause gave birth to more silence... that your own idea? My gawd. You so freaking rock... *sinks below her desk, trying to hide her envious scowl* ....Sam as the big brother, the protector, the one laying on a mattress to not only offer solace but to put himself in between his brother and the big bad world.... Oh. Oh no. Look at them! *sobs* Lemme help 'em, life is a bitch! Damn fate! How sweet is that idea, Louy, Sam being the strong and protective one, Dean being able feel safe and loved... *sniffles* Thanks for sharing your wonderful story. Will read Lightning now. Have to read the bros thoughts and emotions... C ya and please update soon. Incidently, who's that british bloke? Intriguing man... Hugs, snogs Ilka Author's Response: Ah, the british bloke...hehehe, had to be one of those in there somewhere...Thanks so much for this lovely review, your words are a huge inspiration my friend. Thank you so much. XXX Louy

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 25/05/08 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Losing my mind
As I just said on the IM, You evil, evil woman! Lou, honestly. You just can't leave your readers high and dry like that! (guess its the right expression... hm.) on with the quotes. There so many today... ...cheesy view of what heaven was meant to be…just as he was getting ready to head in the opposite direction... Oh, I so feel for Dean here. And I really like the contrast of a beautiful morning doomed to end in an evening in hell-fire. Orange first and in the end. Always have colours in my head for places. (I know I'm insane, but at least I'm not evil!) Like England is yellow, Italy is terra cotta red...get the gist? ...his little shadow... owh, Sammy and Dean. My heart bled for the kids they used to be and the men they have grown into. ...Like everything in his life, even taking off a ring was a battle of wills... It truly never is the easy way for a Winchester. Agree a hundred percent. They have to have a little R&R in awhile. Maybe that's a note for a future challenge or story (*snatches up paper to quickly write down 'Vacation with Winchesters'*). .....finally the amulet from around his neck. In fact, anything that made him feel like him was hidden away inside that little box of living lies and false identities, and the irony wasn’t lost on him.... Yeah. Who is the man we all know and adore as Dean Winchester really? According to some hints I think he might be a vessel for the Endless or one of those creatures. But again, he is as unfathomable as those beings when he is just plain and “simple” Dean! That man is so complex... And the necklace. Well, if I were him, I'd keep it on... I know some bits about that little mystic thingy... *winks* ....pulled his brother away from the normal untainted man he had every right to be... All this self-loathing! Come on Dean! You saved him a million times over! Don't you dare blame yourself! Or... I'll.... I'll come and hit you! .... Toad.... palm rubbed the top of his thigh, lasciviously. ..... I knew there was something fishy about this guy. Demon, ha! Fits! Nasty turn of events for the girl though. Sorry for her. ...on a tightrope over a void, and it was terrifying... Uuuh. You just captured my worst fear! I am totally scared of heights – even more than of flying. Thus, this scene from David's dream is even worse!!! Love those dreams btw. Very poetical and multi-layered. Could write whole essays about them... ....like malachite or very dark jade.... yummy. Thanks for that. Just love his eyes.... incidentally, how many words for green are there in English? Might make a drabble out of that one... ...I don’t want you to remember me like this, Sammy, please... Awe, sniffle, stifling a sob. Big bro till the last second. Though I think he might also have wanted to keep Sam from seeing the terror in his heroic brother's pools of emerald green... ....Bobby .... need to look out for him, Sammy.... Atta boy! Love him, bless him. Selfless and caring. I wish I had a bro like him... or a boy-friend (Sorry Bunny, if you ever read this!). .....it really was Sam, sitting on that stone..... You made me jump at that. Like a very unexpected revelation in a movie. I literally JUMPED. Never had that before. And how cruel is that! To have Dean confronted with his brother's face... Gawd, what a terrific idea... ....naked feet .... did that for Bev, didn't ya? Always looking out for your friends. Awe, come let's give you a hug! ....Bobby? Why hasn’t he come out yet...? WHY HASN’T HE COME OUT YET, BOBBY?”.... I pictured this scene, this falling apart similar to the final episode. I could hear his voice. Silent the rising, thunderous and pleading at the same time. You ripped out my heart at that moment. EVIL! You know I'm so not a Sam-girl, but those two things, Sam's tears in the epi and your last few words, might have turned me around. Oh, it's torture... Well, Louy. I think this review is easily the longest I have written so far. A clear sign of how deeply touched and impressed I am by your work. Please, do us all two favours: One- update soon! Two- never even consider to stop writing! Loves ya, Ilka Author's Response: Ilka, I don't know how you do it. You come all the way from Germany to meet us all in London, then you travel all the way back on the same day no less..must have been travelling for 72 hours straight and then you arrive home and spend another few hours writing review that's just inspire and encourage...Thank you so much for that. You are a unique and incredible person!XXX Louy

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 30/05/08 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4 Of all things dead
Louy. Thank you for the quick update. I needed a dose of Dean and Sam... ...Sam sat, corpse-like and dazed, as a stagnant pool of self-reflection pulled him down and tried to drown him... aaww. Sam. Feel like drowning too. Self-recrimination is a bitch. He shouldn't work himself up too much though. Otherwise he'd be desperate enough to try something foolish, like Dean with his godforsaken deal. ...Sam was different, instead of a frenzy of anger; he was fading, wasting away... sniffle. Fading away. But Dean always is the fighter while Sam almost always thinks and broods. ...the only thing that could bring him back was his brother.... And you Lou, BRING HIM BACK! ...tiny cracked voice sound like an orphaned child... Owh, this is tearing my soul apart. And it is so true as Dean always was like a father to Sam. Now that he is gone it is no wonder Sam feels alone and is devastated, especially as he thought he had a perfect way to keep his brother with him. ....mimicking a tame raccoon living on his chin.... HAHAHA! Thanks for the laugh amidst all the tears. I am really close to tears today. So it wasn't that hard to soak my cheeks but thank you for the laughter. Raccoons Rock. ...just huddled and shivered, barely making a sound except for ragged breathing and a hitched sob... God. This poor man. But I am soooo glad he is back. Not sure if he is whole, but he's back. And those burns seem terrible, like in David's dream, Dean has literally gone through hell. Can't wait to read how this is going on. Always thought Dean would come back to earth on that graveyard and I am glad David is there to take care of the broken warrior. ....eyes huge, raw and searching…and piercing malachite green.... uuuuhhh. Those eye are piercing right through my heart Louy. Someone hug him, quick. Even if he lunged at me, I would hug him till all bad things have been cleared away by tears and sobs.... like thunderstorms clear away dust and debris... Lou, I am so impressed by this work. You are a true author, never rushing over tiny bits, always straight and forward, never wavering and constantly writing in a way that touches my deep in my heart and soul. I am still sobbing, though that is due to my momentary condition as well as your writing. Hugs you, Ilka Author's Response: Ahhh, Ilka, thank you so much...and yep I forgot to mention that I can bring him back too...and I am...! Thanks Ilka and I hope your mum is better real soon and you have a better day tomorrow...IM me later XX Louy

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 04/06/08 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Killing more than time Lou, this chapter calls for another mad quoting session. So here goes: ...This was the Twilight Zone on acid... Damn right. Incidentally, isn't the whole show like some drug-enhanced version of Twilight Zone, gorier, eerier, fiercer and SEXIER though!! Owh, and I like how David quickly accepts the situation and detects the need to help Dean. ...“No hospital”... So like Dean. Even reduced to reflexive replies he still detests hospital. Some traits are just too deeply engraved into a person's soul. ...scraping the blackened skin off his forearms and elbows... Ouch. Must be either the adrenaline keeping Dean from responding to his various injuries or his experience in hell overshadows every “normal” pain or he is just reverting to reflexively pushing back the pain. But I think if someone survived hell's torture, a mere burn wound won't matter any more. And even small blisters hurt like hell (literally!!), don't they? ...unable to get his balance... Awh, Dean. Trying so hard but failing so bad. Come here, boy, and lemme give ya a hand! It's no wonder though: been to hell and back, Sam isn't with him, unable to remember much... how is a person supposed to find their balance (both mentally and physically) like that? He hasn't even found himself! ...“Don’t…need…hp”... Like the denial concerning the hospital this is just such a deep character trait that Dean subconsciously reverts to it. Sweet Dean, still fighting to hold up his game face... ...Where’s Sammy?... Typical. What's the first thing he remembers? Being responsible for Sammy. Even before he recalls his OWN NAME. Oh, come on Dean. Why is it always Sam first?! Take care of yourself! Uh, well. Anyway, we all love him for the big bro he is and his self-sacrificing attitude... ...one arm wrapped around his waist and the other holding an arm over his shoulder ... Instantly reminded me of Born Under a Bad Sign. When Jo helps him walk back to the bar. He stumbles and she holds him upright. Gawd, I love that scene. Where's my drool bucket?? ...Every drop of rain was a metallic teardrop caught in the beam from the streetlamp, even the puddles in the dips in the asphalt were rippling coils of silver on black... And there we go again. Out of the blue you come up with something as poetic, brilliant and beautiful like this! Lou, how do you do it? I am deeply impressed. Reread the description several times to relish its beauty... It reminds me of a picture in a graphic novel, very clear, black, white and silver and it actually feels like being drawn with black ink. AWESOME. ...overcooked meat... That para is just so gory (which I like!). God, poor Dean. Once he realises his injuries he'll be screaming- or maybe not being the world's greatest fighter against pain... ...You are turning out to be one huge pain in my ass, you know that? ... Yeah, Dean just has that effect on those who care about him and wanna help him, doesn't he? Still doesn't keep me from wanting to nurse him back to health. And I so like a pissy Dean. Which is what he always turns into when he is hurting and someone (usually Sam) mother-hens him. ...I was meant to find you... Yeah and I like to know more about the mysterious connection between the Winchesters and David, Milligan and Lomax and Dream. What the hell is going on? Don't you think I lost track of that! I really love a good mystery to solve and this here has me flabbergasted. Mostly I can tell who the killer is right from the beginning or how it's gonna end. But this story just won't let me find a clear grip. AWESOME. ....Deal ... felt Dean stiffen and catch a breath... No wonder he sucked in his breath. But David wouldn't know. And Dean seems to remember on a very subconscious level. Maybe his experience in hell just stands out against everything else. Maybe he will remember all of it sooner or later. Rather sooner than later that is... ...eternal question for a hunter like Milligan: how many sacrifices make the kill worthwhile?... The eternal question for every hunter! Don't Dean an d Sam discuss similar misgivings all the time? Ah, being a hunter is never easy. Still wish they'd exist cos real life sucks sometimes and going off on a hunt would help a great deal to vent some of the anger and rage... ...weaponry all laid out in a perfect display... They are all a bit anal about their weapons aren't they? OK there's a reason why I wouldn't make a good hunter then. I am so MESSY. My guns would jam every second try! Even sloppy Dean keeps em well oiled and all. I just wouldn't do it! ...raw muscle bulged under semi-translucent skin... Hm. Pallor and muscles bulging, yummy... Phew. Had a lot to say and could've done more. But I guess this shows you how very intrigued and impressed I am, how much your story resonates with me. And I am proud to know you and dare to call you my friend. Lou, you ROCK! And update soon, cos the collapsing house left me sitting on the edge of my chair. And that will be very uncomfortable for more than a few days!! Hugs, Ilka Author's Response: Damn, Ilka your reviews are like oxygen, they give me a head rush just to look at them. Thank you so much for taking the time to write in such beautiful detail...to pick each element and expand on it, making me feel like nothing was lost or redundant. And lastly thanks for always being at the end of the IM, prepared to listen to my ramblings and gripes. You are a wonderful friend. Thank you! XXX Louy

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 13/06/08 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6 Deep out of sight Louy. I saved up reading your new chapter for a special moment. It is always such an emotional and fascinating way to spend my time. And you did it again, baby. I am awed. I am so glad that you got Bobby and Sam back in the story. I was literally barely holding it together when I thought about them having no clue about Dean's return. But now I am desperate to learn more about the collapsing House of Dream, Dean's current condition and the demonic Lomax's plan. So please do hurry with the next update! ....‘House of Dream’…the seat of power... we could go back to the House of Dream... Wow. That whole mystic stuff is really intriguing. They definitely have to go back there to figure it all out. I bet there is still something to discover at that museum. Still love the whole Gaiman reference. I am so gonna save my money to buy the books. ...David Alexander, the Keeper of the House,.... Was wondering about David's role in the plot. Maybe he inherited the Keeper status after Burgess' death but he clearly doesn't know. And I bet the English bloke will eventually fill him in. ...watching the glint of light bleeding from the startlingly silver edge... An example of your skills as an author Louy. Light bleeding. That is so evocative and poetic. Makes it perceptible not only with my mind's eye but tangible, I can see/hear/touch/taste this image. Awesome. ...The kid was hollow…like the Sam he’d known had been scooped out and thrown away and there was nothing left to fill those spaces. Bobby knew it in his bones; he could feel it, taste it, and he buried his empathy deep out of sight... Aw. My heart bled for Sam here. And Bobby. He is such a sweet man, caring for and loving the boys like a real father. He tries to be there, to be strong and all the time worries for Sam and Dean. God. This tore at my soul and still does while writing this review. ...There was no Sam behind those moves; there was no Sam at all anymore. Sam had gone to his own personal hell at the same time as his brother... NO! Sammy. Don't give up. Aw, this is breaking my heart. But I wonder how they'll do it on the show. Really, I think Sam will have a damn hard time coping with Dean's death. Knowing that he can't help Dean, can't free him. That Dean has to suffer while he himself lives, lives because of Dean's sacrifice. ...just a little help…that’s all…. Bobby's prayer. So simple, so straight, so true and from the heart. The little doubt lacing it turns it real and believable. A hunter's prayer. ...Sam's dream...House of Dream... Such dreamy ideas. Wonder when Dream enters the scene. Or has he already? ...Now he’d have to face the monster all by himself... Winchesters were the bravest... Now I know why your chapter's banner shows Kid-Sam (girlie boy in banner, haha. Sorry couldn't stop myself. He just looks that girlish with his bangs and even more as a kid). I always enjoy reading about their childhood in a contemporary story. Those flashbacks explain so much, don't you think? Sweet Sammy kid here. Trying to be strong and face the monster beneath his bed. ...pulling the blanket high past his nose so only huge, round eyes peeped out… Cute picture. Aren't the boys always adorable, kid or grown up? OK, not just adorable as grown ups. Downright edible when it comes to Dean. Drool bucket! ...A man, shrouded in shadow and impossible to make out, except for bright green eyes blinking under sable lashes... DEAN! And the “sable lashes”. Never read that description before. Great idea. “Shrouded in shadows” gave me goosebumps, creepy and scary. ....The deluge was nightmarish, with silver sheets of water slicing from the heavens in a rage of nature... I love your way of describing water. Always colours and feelings to accompany the mention of mere droplets or puddles. So creative. A lot of this chapter, especially the dream sequences made me think of DALDOM. The way Bobby and Sam meet in a dream and Dean makes contact with them. I wonder if Dream has his hands in this. OK, I gotta spill it. I really think Dean has become some lower level Dream-reborn. Or something like that. How else could he enter Bobby's and Sam's dream. I am still pondering about the ritual in Fall of the House of Dream. So, I know it's a wild guess but I had to articulate it to just get it the hell out of my head. You don't have to comment on this. I might have made a total idjit outta myself... Desperately waiting for the next update, hugs ya, Ilka PS: You need to bring me the new chapter to London if you update after the 26th. Wanna at least read and review later... Author's Response: Awe Ilka, you've done it again - I'm so blown away by your reviews and this one is no exception. I love how you pick out bits that I spent a long time working on and make all the time spent on them worthwhile - thank you for that, and I couldn't be happier that your invested in this story, hope you continue to enjoy reading as much as I'm enjoying writing it. XX Louy PS. Can't wait till the 6th.XX

But as you know I am currently doing preps for my stay in GB. So I will only leave a few notes and comments. Kent... Oh I love you for this. Kent is my favourite county. Glad Tony is from Kent. Made him even more inticing. The triplets freaked me out! Girl, I gotta tell ya, I was eating some spring rolls (my favourite Chinese meal) when I got to those decaying, rotten, stinking demons. They kinda remind me of Norns (goddesses of fortune and fate), but in a crooked, twisted, evil way. Fascinating. Wanna hear more about them. Even if they made me stop practicing for the eating challenge at our next stay in the Hilton! Lol. Cheers and I promise to leave a decent long review once I am back from Herne Bay and reading your next chapter. Hugs ya, Ilka

Ilka/RC Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm really glad you like it. I just couldn't find the way to express how it made me feel and then...

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 27/05/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 - Not a day in my mind
Hello Dru. I must say, welcome to the writing side... (not sure if it is the Dark Side, I enjoy it it whole-heartedly!) And a feature on your first attempt. How friggin' cool is that? I'm glad that Schelz and Bev finally got you to post! What a wonderful, skilled and brilliant story. So sad (like that!). If I review, I usually quote the best bits, helps me organise my thoughts. However, this story should have been quoted in full. So I had to pick and still ended up with so many sentences. Hope I won't bore you with my thoughts, feelings and remarks. So here goes: ...All I can think about is my purpose. Sam... Oh, that's so Dean. Keeping his mind on Sam to focus, to live through the worst. ...I'm left weightless and powerless. Again... Like in AHBL2 (my favourite 10 minutes of the show). Argh, I'd love to hug him. This is breaking my heart. ...The black clouds sitting in the sky are my only company... A foreshadowing on his future as a demon, being a black cloud of pure evil, even if those clouds are rain clouds. That's writing at it's best. ...I'm suffocating on life and exhaling death... Goosebumps. Awed. How did you come up with that? That's so good. ...that those words he whispered in my ears would burn with him... Yeah, I can clearly imagine him thinking this. He would never admit it, but yeah. He was so freaked out by John' request... ...The fire has a face, and it smiles at me, as it eats away at me hungrily.... SCARY! Great idea. Whoa... literally jumped at that picture forming in my head... ...Damned to hell?...No, already there! ... Yep. Agreeing. Waiting is hell and for Mr. Impatience himself, let's make it double. And the thought of him having to leave Sam behind unprotected clearly is worse than any torture created in hell. ...How do I tell him I'm drenched in fear?!... uahauaauah. SOBBING. Poor Dean. (Did you know I am obsessed with him? Guess you might have picked it up by now, just want to let you know for sure....) ...I'm strong...but just enough to take what's thrown at Sam and not enough for myself.... Isn't that just the usual? Strong enough to take on hell's bitches by the hundreds to protect Sam, but for himself... Owh. Why is it he values himself so little? Or does he lack the strength after protecting Sammy, having depleted his energies? ...after my death he would never give anyone the chance to.... Yeah. Dean's death is bound to have a major impact on Sam. Wonder what will happen to sweet, soft, soulful Sam. ...I cry involuntarily, weakness overpowering me.... Tears rolling down my cheeks now. Great. You did it. Bet you are pleased with yourself. You should be. Only the best have made me cry (calUK, Gaelic, Bev and Louy) so count yourself among the leading authors. At least from my POV. ...I gotta protect him, even if it's from me.... How sad is that thought? Poor Dean, keeping his distance from Sam to protect but cutting himself off from the only person who supports and loves him unconditionally... Well, Dru I gotta say WELL DONE! And thanks for sharing. Feature is more than well deserved. Hugs, Ilka/RoweenaC Author's Response: WOW! Ilka this review made me nearly fall off my chair;) You've made my day and night!!! I reckon I'm a dark writer! What do you think? Wonderful, skilled and beautiful...< This is just filling me up. You could never bore me with your thoughts;) I have to say one of the best lines of the story is "I'm suffocating on life and exhaling death." and the freakishly talented Schelz gave that to me. Gotta love her!!! Thank you for all the quoting, I love you for it honey. DRU-BABY X

And yours definitely is one good story. Made me cry. I don't really cry in front of people. Keep it to the private moments. I loved the idea that something linking the boys to their mother (especially Dean) survived the fire and travelled with them all those years. Giving them a chance to feel at home, to feel loved. First attempt: Was ist as scary for you as it was for me? Not that it gets better for me. Still wetting my pants everytime. Loves ya and had a great time meeting you and your lovely sis. Hugs, Ilka Author's Response: Hey bubs Aww honey, thanks a lot for saying this was good. Glad and sad that it made you cry, and thank you for seeing our main idea to keep them linked to their mother. Home. Khimz: It was very scary for me Ilka, but luckily I didn't feel like I was posting alone. Schelz: My first post, I was just fine. Easy as pie *shifty eye* Khimz: Liar!

Gawd, you evil-bev-bird! Pain ...backbeat of evil that hummed constantly down the wires that suspended his convulsing limbs... ...his pathetic whimpers as he trembled in his shackles... .....top notes of his pitiful song were wrought by the sporadic jolts of cruelty that pulsed pain of even greater intensity down the hawsers, governing his obscene aerial ballet.... This is so tangible, shivering here. Goddammit, someone help him! And the obscene ariel ballet, gawd, how brilliant and poetic. Fear ...voices of madness chittering and shrieking with delight at his torment... ...His sob of lonely broken humanity was their ambrosia and they fed from his shuddering carcass like the harbingers of decay and death that they were.... Owh, I am so scared for him. Sobbing madly now... ...He took his agony and turned it to armour; moulded his despair into a weapon of infinite power to strike back at the seething horde.... At this point I was screaming Hurray, Samir even nearly dropped his mouse to the floor and shot me an annoyed look. This is so like Dean. Savouring what little strength he has and building on it. ...limpid green eyes.... aaawww. His eyes... okay. Feeling a little better already. They have a soothing effect on me I think. Love (is a shield to hide behind.... haha, you know me and my 80ies music. But it fits in a way!) ...his mother’s laughing face... Okay,back in tears again. Dang, that is a terrific story. Very proud and very envious... Redemption (sword) ...father’s arms about him on those precious occasions .... sniffles. Heart breaking... Salvation (heart) ....see only the warm hazel of his brother’s gaze holding him in its safety... Sammy, yeah. Keep your mind on him, Dean. He'll get you outta this hell.... I really like the format, too. Poetic. And that his family is his way out. Still in shock. Gonna read it again. God, what a masterpiece. Bevvie. I am sooooo awed. Such powerful, excellent and brilliant words. Ilka Author's Response: Ilka. Thank you for your lovely and thoughtful consideration of the words. It was a shock to me that I wrote this as it wasn't what I intended to write when I set out but somehow it was just there. you are a dear girl for your kind words and I'm glad you're my friend.

Well, well, well. Jane! First one! GREAT. I am glad you found the courage 'cos this story is so worth being posted. And I say if those next chapters are ready put em out and keep em coming!!! This story has got it all: humour, emo, brotherly banter, self-loathing Dean, protective Dean, grumpy Sam.... Now over to my quoting obsession: ...Hell, I’ll even try to get Sammy’s spit stains off the window... Dean and his baby. Love it when he gets overprotective on her behalf.
Banter: I could really picture those two brothers having this banter. Heard their voices and saw their faces. LOVED it. ...‘Barbie Suite’... HILARIOUS!!! Dean in Barbie's suite. Like GI Joe wearing a wedding dress. Just the picture of him lying in the lacy bed, hahahahaha. ...Barbie’s big in all the Right Parts.... Oh, well. At least he seems to have taken the time looking at Barbie thoroughly enough to register that! Maybe he even played with her? NOPE, scratch that, my whole supernatural world is shaking and tipping on its axis, NO FRIGGIN WAY!!
...A shudder ran through him as he sucked in deep breaths, trying to stem the tide of emotion that threatened to engulf him.... aaww. Dean. Trying to stifle his grief. Must be real difficult in those girlie surroundings not to succumb to a chick flick moment. ...Red-rimmed eyes, stared back at him from sunken sockets and dark smudges betrayed his need for sleep..... Nice. You know, Jane. I like me a weary and hurt/angsty Dean. And that description fully answers to my needs.
...“Lemme take a look at your arm, Sam, how hard did you fall?”.... Big bro' mode in full operation! Even when he is weary he pulls up enough strength to look after Sammy.
...I’m thinking of re-enacting that old Levis’ advert in the laundry room.... OH. YES PLEASE. Hm, yummy. Hang on, right back. Gotta get my drooling bucket... Got it. OK, let's have a look at that scene. NO???, sniffle. ...his rock, his anchor, his protector.... SOBS. Damn, just after that promise of some real nice drooling session. Great. Well. The bucket will help to soak up my tears...
....all his usual defences disappeared... Never a good thing. Feeling of forebodings creeping up my spine. QUICK. Where is the next chapter??
God. A range of emotions coursing through me. Can't wait to read the next chappie. Bring it on, Jane! Cheers, Ilka/RoweenaC Author's Response: Hi Ilka, Thank you for your wonderful review, your comments are divine. Please feel free to indulge your quoting obsession, I think I've just developed a reading my reviews (I still can't believe I can now say that) obsession. I must admit Levis advert and Dean, let me share that drool bucket. I'm afraid the girlie surrounding may just be a little overwhelming for Dean and as for playing with Barbie. That is just wrong on soo many levels!! Next chapter should be posted in a couple of days. Hope you enjoy and thanks again for the lovely review. x Jane x

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 03/06/08 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2 Hey, Jane. God bless you for the update. I was really looking forward to it. And what a great turn of events.... ....the pink and white, lace clad doll that sat impassively on the toilet cistern, her legs impaled into the spare toilet roll, hidden by her layered dress...Strawberry Shortcake Suite.... HAHA. Love the weirdness of that room. And dolls like that are just creepy aren't they? Only old ladies like em. And the name of that room, *fits of hysterical laughter* ....I’m dyin’ here... No one should ever say something imprudent as that, especially if their name is Winchester. God, it's like he is asking for it... Feel forebodings rising... ...#29... Does the story by any chance at all take place in November? I know it's a wild guess. But I've started to really like that number recently. Might still be a coincidence tho... never mind. ...he slowly drifted further from the shores of consciousness......he struggled to escape the dreamland that now held him prisoner.... beautifully written, Jane. And can feel his struggle as if it was my own. Reaching out only never extending far enough... You know what I mean, don't you?(See? I could never do that, helpless. Your description is so much more elaborate!) ....deadly poison .... Awesome. Hurt and dying Dean, poisoned. Haven't had that method in a long time. Actually, don't know if I've read it at all so far... oh, wait. The wendigo in gaelics Ramble On poisoned Dean severely. But I don't think that really counts as it was merely a side effect of the fighting. ....His fathers’ icy glance silenced him ... Awh. Dean, this is so like him to remember a situation when his dad was disappointed by him. And that icy stare. Makes me wanna reach out and hug him... sniffles (only hay-fever!!! honestly, this time of year...) ...the guilt and jealousy, mixed with a wild hope that his dad was still alive... OK. SOBS. No, not pretending anything anymore. ....silently feeling his heart freeze inside his chest ....Mommy... the last word he spoke for six months .... Jane, why are you doin this to me? I can barely write /review like that. Tears rolling down my cheeks freely now! You should've written something at the gathering. Lou would have really cried and I 'd have joined in happily. So touching and such a soft, sweet boy he was and still is, behind all the quips and bad ass attitude. And we all know it and it's the reason why love him.... Thanks big time Jane. Such a lovely and pleasantly sad chapter. Avidly waiting for the next chapter, Ilka Author's Response: Hiya Ilka Darlin', Ooh, lovely, an Ilka review (dances happily). Wow, I'm pleased I'm not the only one totally freaked by those toilet roll dolls, she just seemed to match that charming room!! #29, yeah there could have been some subliminal implanting going on there. Not just November though, what about June! 'Drifting from the shores' well, a little homage there to my nautical past. Can I come along and hug him too, John can be pretty cold and forbidding when he wants to be. Oh, I'm sorry I gave you hayfever, I must admit I had a touch of it myself writing the fire scene. I'm just a total sucker for a tormented Dean. I could never write how you all wrote at the gathering. It takes me hours and I have to be locked in an isolation cell - well at least wait till the kids have gone to bed!! Loulou wasn't the only one crying there, I just hadta keep my gameface on!! Thanks again for your wonderful review. I'm sorry I didn't bring forth the infamous 'drool bucket' this time!! Next chapter up soon. x Jane x

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 08/06/08 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Damn. Already chapter 3. So only one left. I hate it if a good story ends. Like parting with a good friend. Brilliant chapter, Jane. Loved every last word. Quoted a lot, always a sign of being sucked in by the chapter. Well done, baby. Humour, action, angst, hurt, protective!Sam and sweet, sad memories. What's there to wish for? Maybe Dean stripped to his boxers, hehe... uhm. Back to reviewing, my bucket is filled to the rim anyway. ...the dizzy spell that had passed over him in the shower... Yeah. I was reminded of that, too. So the CO came into their shower, too? Author's Response: Hiya Ilka, Thank you so much for the stunningly huge, in-depth review. I read it this afternoon but I was coughing so much I had to go to bed for a couple of hours. I didn't think I could do your reply justice then, so I thought I'd try again now I'm back up. You picked up on the dizzy spell in the shower, I didn't think anyone had noticed that one. The CO was spreading to all the adjoining rooms, it might have got both of them in their sleep!! I had a lovely time envisioning both Deans' discomfort at a sweet lecherous old gal smoothing out his 'smalls', and then Sams' reaction to being hit upon by a pretty young thing, so different to Deans'. At least the drool buckets made an appearance this time - nothing like a bit of eye-raking!! I love that you found Sams' dawdling frustrating; even whilst writing it I wanted him to rush back but he just kept taking his time in all that lovely fresh air. He was just feeling chilled.... Then the shit hit the fan!! I shed a tear or two on that laundry room floor too. I'm intrigued by the thought of the lifestyle the boys would've had growing up. As you say, Dean, protector, master of the game face, and yes, there is somthing hugely wrong with the guns in the night scenario - even if your name's Winchester. Yeah! Star Wars rocks! You know Ilka, it sounds like you get through nearly as many tissues as me. Nothing like a bit of Dean with his guard down. Aah, Bless him! I'm delighted that you think I've captured the boys style, you have to be careful cause everybody knows them so well..... I'm posting the last chapter hopefully tomorrow evening. Just a couple more tweaks!! Loves Ya x Jane x

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Date: 10/06/08 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4 Wuuuaaah. Last one, sniffles. You take care to write something else, Jane! Or I'll pester you via email until you yield!!! And thanks for putting me on your fav list, so flattered. Gotta say, what a roller coaster ride, again.... have pulled some stuff together in my quotes, otherwise it'd have been longer than that long (more than 6000!?) chapter itself. Took me 13 chapters to break that sonic barrier! ....the tones of his brother close by, safe, grounding him.....Sammy!....No don’t... Please.’ He silently begged. ‘Please don’t go, don’t leave me..... Love how he tries to hold on to him... how he can only hear Sam's voice clearly... underlines how Sam is his lifeline, well done! ....a heavy smoker.... Got a bad conscience there. Guess I have to cut down or stop... hm. ....He howled silently.....calling out for his brother, over and over until the darkness reached out to claim him once more.... Nice contrast between howling and silently. And oh, how sad and soul-wrenching is this idea of Dean calling out without being heard. Kinda reminds me of NRFTW...
...10:41AM.... You really caught my attention here. Actually went and searched the scene to make sure it was the same (!) time... Awesome idea!!
...racoons....stuffed racoon .... Not saying anything but : LOL!!!
...the scream of pure agony that poured from him... Felt sick to my stomach here. I hate to have shoulders relocated. My left one got dislocated once and it hurt like hell. Maybe that's why I love (in a sick way) if Dean has his done. DROOL BUCKET. ... Sammy Sammy’s long gone I miss him so bad, it hurts.” Me too, kiddo… Me too.”.... Dad Dad’s gone Oh, god, I miss him so bad, it hurts Yeah, me too, Dean. Me too.”... JESUS, Jane! How brilliant and poetic... Outta words. Love the parallel approach. Actually went back and copied more than I started. This is the best part in the whole story!!!! How terrifying and heartbreaking, disturbing and depressing. The people he loves most gone... SOBS. Got to stop for a minutes. This is writing at its best. Honey. You just broke my heart. If I weren't a Dean-girl already you surely would have me converted by that!!!! ....“Like I’ve been run over by a truck. Oh and Yeah! I do know what that feels like”... LOL. Like his humour so much. And it's a sign that he is better. Thank god. ...now it’s freakin’ plumbin’ too.... HAHA! Had me in hysterical fits here. After the tears from earlier, a very much needed insertion. ...chopstick... Was already wondering where that thing had gone to....And then again in the end. You're awesome at humour, babe! Laughed out loud here! ...chopstick spun crazy cartwheels...
......Irritability..... That side effect is a new character trait to Dean, huh?! Hehe *winks*. And sure enough, Sam can't withstand the teasing opportunity, hehehehe: ....“Irritability, speech/gait disturbances, higher intellectual malfunctions! Dude, it sounds like you on a good day!”....
....necklace... Never without the necklace. I could tell you why he needs it, but that'd spoil you for my multi-chapter, in case you haven't read it by now. Hehe. Walking and talking billboard, me!
....two dog-eared, slightly coffee-stained photographs.....last picture he’d ever taken of his father gave in to the emotions.... Bye-bye laughs, hello tears. Like it how he finally gives in. That boys surely needs some cleansing tears. He's been so in control since his dad's death. I am gonna keep him company and we'll share a tissue (eeeww, disgusting, even if it's Dean!).
...“I guess I got my chance to get my hands on your brothers ‘smalls’ after all.”... And up it goes again, free-ride on the roller coaster. Jeez, I'm actually a little dizzy now...
...I’m not sure I could sleep with all this wildlife staring at me... Neither could I. Not a real improvement to the nightmarish strawberry shortcake room, huh? And you put another raccoon reference in, hilarious. You should consider designing the motel rooms for the actual show. You've come up with some real nightmares.
....”Driver picks the music…Shotgun shuts his cakehole!” ... YAY, way to go Sammy! You got back at him for all those times. However, I like Dean's music... And btw, I am trying to find a shop that makes a sticker to put inside my car proclaiming the Winchester family's most important rule. Would love to have that. Would shut my Sam (boyfriend) up for some time about the “damn classic Dean-Winchester-crap”... hehe. ....Oh, god! I’m in hell..... Nope not yet. Wait another one and a half seasons. You'll be in hell for the whole friggin summer leaving all those Hunter GaLs behind in nervous anticipation of your heroic resurrection... still biting my fingernails... hmpf. So Jane. You happy being an author? I am happy you are one! Please, do me the favour of writing more of that twisted, humorous, drool-inducing, heart wrenching stuff! Remember I know your email address!!! Hugs ya, Ilka/RoweenaC. Author's Response: Hiya Ilka Honey, Wow, where do I begin!! I'll start at the end, yes, I am totally happy to be listed up there in the Authors bit, and I've had such a blast writing this one that I can't imagine not doing it again!! It would be worth it just for one of your reviews alone! I couldn't resist the... Oh, god! I'm in hell... knowing where he's now ended up. I'm more into Dean's music myself but Bev has recently won me over to the Dixie Chicks as I do like a bit of C & W too. I did have a lot of fun with the motel rooms and those darned racoons - they just get everywhere!! So at least I managed to make you laugh this time - not just cry and even the drool bucket gotta mention... I figured Dean had to have a few cleansing tears and I'd gladly share a soggy tissue with him!! 10:41 has stuck in my head ever since I first watched IMTOD. That TOD call was a real heartbreaker, I figured that time would always be a trigger for them both. Yeah!! You liked the final demise of the chopstick, Dean was supposed to snap it in half first but he wasn't really mad enough to do it. Ouch! Sorry about the shoulder, didn't know you'd dislocated yours - how did I do on the pain scale? I'm so pleased you liked the 'I miss him so bad, it hurts.' bits, cause they were a constant source of uncertainty to me, they got moved and removed half a dozen times. Dean is at his most irresistable when he's hurt and confused and got his guard down!! (give us a lend of your drool bucket!) Anyway, Thank you for the wonderful reviews, comments and the beautiful sparkling stars. Roll on the 29th!! See ya soon. x Jane x Summary:
How I picture Sam's thoughts at the end of NRFTW. Obvious spoilers for the season 3 finale.
This entire piece of whatever it is was totally inspired by Vanessa. I've never written a poem in my entire life, except for those god awful ones you have to try and make sound tolerable just to pass fifth grade english class but the first verse of this has been rolling around in my head since the show aired and she sent me something that prompted me to make an effort at finishing it. God Bless you Vanessa...you are truly an inspiration!

Could clearly picture it in my mind. And Sam's rage is palpable in the last verse. Thanks, it isn't bad at all!! Ilka Author's Response: Thanks Ilka! First attempt at a poem and probably my last. (That's hard stuff to write, and I'm not the touchy/feely kind of person to spit that out on a regular basis) Really glad you liked it and thanks for the R&R!! Summary:
A poem. The final scenes of the season finale continue to haunt me. This is a poem expressing what I see when I look at the final shots of Dean in Hell.
This incredibly awesome banner is by bulletbabe (Louy) of course. Two simple words "Thank You" are not nearly enough. But they're meant from the bottom of my heart.

Ilka/RoweenaC Author's Response: Ilka, what a delightful review! I particularly liked the "Hate you, love you!" ***grin*** I've heard before that my poetry can result in those kinds of feelings and sometimes in tears.

Therefore, even if I have an important exam tomorrow, I will read and review each chapter, starting now. ...."I'm fine." He could still hear the lie.... Oh yeah. So Dean and so Sam. Those boys know each other so well. And incidentally, I thought this was supposed to be fun. Well, I enjoy Dean hurt but does he himself? ...."Kind of stuck." "In a tree."... HAHAHAHAAHAA. The thought of that. Panther-like Dean stuck in a tree like a cat, chased up by a (black) dog! Awesome idea, Cal. Hilarious.... ....Been watching Wizard of Oz again, huh Eh, it was the only thing the cable would pick up.... Yeah, right. We all know he is a big old softie. And I love the banter. Very well done. .....his brother would hide any injury from him, up to and including missing limbs.... Yeah, but so terrific, when they use their over-protectiveness against each other. Loving it. Guess, now I'll have to do humour too, huh? NO freaking WAY! Just can't do it... OK, on with the next one. Gotta see how badly injured Dean is and wanna read your description about his predicament of being stuck in a tree. God. He must be feeling so embarrassed. Hugs, Ilka PS: And as you are counting stars (or rather Dean will be) here you go, have ten well deserved points.

Had to search my whole SN compilation. Couldn't remember which one it was. Shame on me. One of my own favs. Butt at the moment I am all caught up in LedZep (thanks to Louy), so it sorta slipped my mind... *blushing crimson* ....I'll be fine. Just me and Cujo, a beautiful starlit night; we might break out the candles, slow dance a little. Perfect.... HAHAHAHAHAHA. I'd love to see that. Guess we have to bring the trickster back for that. Reminds me of Tall Tales when the frat boy dances with the alien. On with # 3... Cheers, Ilka

You should give humour a try more often. Like it dark and twisted. ....."Aw, bite me." ... "Nah, I'll leave that to the dog.".... Was thinkin the same thing even before I read it. He was asking for that quip, wasn't he? ....the empathetic chill that settled itself comfortably into his bones.... awh. You managed to slip in some empathy and brotherly bond here. Love that. ...."Could you maybe try not pissing off the rabid hell hound for once Dean?".... Hehehe. Fat chance, Sammy. Dean just has that effect on peo...uhm... black dogs. ....the tiny breath he'd been able to hold on to blasted out of his lungs at the impact with the frozen ground beneath.... Well, whaddaya say? Managed to slip in some excellent descriptions as well. What's left to wish for? ....Lost count again. Crap.... HHAHHAHAHAHAHA. Hilarious. Wonder how far he'd come... ....Oh you're not. Tell me you're not stuck in a damn tree.... AWESOME. Had me in fits of laughter here. Had to stop reading to wipe my eyes. And for once it wasn't because you made me fear for the boys, like usual, nope. Because you definitely found the way to make me laugh. ...Or do you two need to get a room.... Dean and his baby always make me laugh. That boy is so in love with his car, it's really damned funny. Remember that scene in RSaM? Where Bela has his car towed away? I thought he'd snap and faint!!!! Nice descriptions and a bit of melancholy mixed with humour and seasoned with some blood, served with a pout and storm-green eyes. One word: BRILLIANT.

And if Sam Winchester cannot move Heaven than he will raise Hell. *Warnings: Spoilers Season Three. Strong Language. Nudity. Innuendo. Scenes dealing with graphic torture and gore. Disclaimer: I do not own anything to do with Supernatural, I'm simply borrowing the boys for playtime *evil grin*. Everything belongs to Kripke.

This was the best part. No, I have to get up. Have to. Have to see if. Have to find him... The way Sam forces himself beyond the pain and numbness (like that contrast!). Poor Sammy. He really would be obsessive enough to sit there for 5 days, in the rain. God, his bangs must have been plastered to his skull. And then in the end Bobby shows up to help. I love that man so much. He is always there to support the Winchesters. I have to admit you made me laugh at one point. Even tho this is a fairly sad and painful piece. But this: ...Build an ark kind of rain... just had me laughing! Coooool. I inspired something like this. Thanks, Ilka/RoweenaC Author's Response: Well it was the least I could do. I was worried no one would think that he would do that, but he did go all terminator in Mystery Spot so I thought if there was a chance he could get his brother back he would push himself to the limit and beyond. Bobby just had to be there, he's dear to my heart and I don't think Sam or Dean will be able to make it through this without him (gasp, is that foreshadowing?) I'm rather partial to that line and was giggling as I wrote it. I'm very glad you liked it, I feel so thrilled and overjoyed that you took the time to review and give me stars to boot. Thank you! |
