Even for Dean that was fast work in pissing off a spirit, he'd only just walked through the door!! Hee!

Am I a bad person finding this funny....??

I think it was fine to leave in that Sam wasn't dead but wounded, after all, Dean wouldn't have been certain that Sam was actually dead, and this ishis POV.

Interesting to revisit this and now I am wondering all over again about the bloodline thing - if Sam had stayed dead would Lucifer have thought to go after Adam like Michael eventually did?  Presumably Adam could have made an alternative vessel for either Heavenly brother - oh no I've just talked myself out of that one because Sam also had the demon blood.  Um. Yeah.

Anyhow, nice little missing scene!



Author's Response:

Hi, Ann-Marie,

Yes, I think that Dean might not have realised that Sam had slipped away, and wasn't just hovering on the brink.

Re the bloodline - when you think about the pilot flashback and what was revealed at the end of season two, Sam was primed to be Lucifer's vessel from a baby, so even though Adam was the same bloodline they might not have been able to get him ready in time. That's my theory, anyway.

Although it's interesting that Dean needed no such preparation to become Michael's vessel - he didn't have to drink angel blood.

Hmm......bit of a conundrum there, considering Lucifer's still classed as an archangel, albeit a fallen one.

Glad you enjoyed the story.

Here you go, a piece of coal. (Though I though that was a New Year's Day tradition, not Christmas?)

Well you busted poor old Dean up pretty good for Christmas but at least he got to call Sam bitch, eh?  For old times sake.

Liked the Wincicles!



Author's Response:

Well, around here, you get coal in your Christmas stocking if you've been bad!  Either way, thanks so much for your review!

Exiled by Nachuma Rated: T starstarstarstar [Reviews - 5]
Summary: A quick little one-shot.  Outsider’s view of 6.1, Exile on Main Street.  I’m not sure how to explain this.  There are no real spoilers but it assumes you already know the ep.   Slightly revised from my original post.

I liked the outside POV but I think for the purposes of this story, she was too sympathetic and warm towards Dean, so when the reveal comes in the final part, it is is a bit too much of a leap to go from a young girl attracted to the handsome stranger, to the Siren who is going to try and kill him.

Maybe introducing some kind of doubts on her part, or the beginnings of some kind of antagonism towards Dean a little earlier would help prepare the way without necessarily giving the whole plot away.

Apart from that, some lovely descriptions and a great idea.

Hope that helps?



Author's Response:

Thanks so much for your comments, Amber.  I made a few changes that hopefully will make it a little clearer, or at least more understandable.  After all, who wouldn't be distracted by a sad Dean?

Thanks again for your suggestions, and hope this works a little better now.

Love to hear a Bobby POV every now and again and this is a good one, gruff and matter of fact but full of warmth and understanding of his boys.

Author's Response: Thank you, Amber, and I'm glad you enjoyed this!

Aw Dean.... A very sad and scary look inside his head - all alone and trying to stray sstrong while he grows steadily more desperate...

Cleverly written, I liked the short sharp sections and the young kid voice was authentic, as was the way he refused to acknowledge his growing fear.



Author's Response:

I love to go rooting around in Dean's head (even though it's a very scary place to be...)

So glad you like this, and thanks for writing!

I kind of guessed it wasn't really fireworks, but throwing in Alastair and that line of his from One the Head of a Pin gave me the creeps.  Good job - I knew you'd get the bug!  Now you need to join the EO Challenge.... :D

Thanks, AMB!!  I like to give you the creeps>;]

Dean the lead wolf, Sam the hawk - yes I can see that (though maybe while John was around Dean was more a pack wolf, John the leader?).  Nice!

Author's Response: You're absolutely right--young Dean was beta to John's alpha, until he learned to challenge the pack leader.  Glad you enjoyed!

 
Summary:

Sam and Dean have had a few close calls in their lives…

Well done for putting this together so coherently with fires virtually on your doorstep!

I'll be keeping everything crossed no one else suffers the loss of their home (or indeed their life!) from these terrible wildfires - stay safe!

Author's Response:

Thanks so much for reviewing, Amber!  My brain right now is also only at about 50% containment, so glad the story made sense to you.  

The firefighting is going better than expected, humidity is up to almost 30%!, and the smoke is blowing away from the city for a change, so hopefully things will be under control soon.
