Oh flipping heck! *sniff*, wee!Dean hugging unborn Sam....

 
Summary:  

Idea by BHoney, based on a scene from If You Love Something by Mizpah

Reach Out - I'll Be There

‘He recognised that hand; knew it like he knew his own - right down to the tiny white circular scar on the first joint of the index finger. He remembered holding a much smaller version of it when he was younger, feeling a warm glow in his heart as the short, pudgy fingers clung to his like a lifeline. In fact, he had gripped that hand, or its mate, tightly for most of their lives, through all kinds of situations from the first day at school to a hunt gone wrong or the aftermath of a nightmare.'

Pre-series through to Season 5, and contains spoilers for all five seasons

Up to your usual high standards - poor old Sam does a lot of huffing here in between getting whumped.  Funny how he's starting to soudn like Dean (Season 1 Sam would never have geeked out about a Remmington...!)  Got a query for you though - obviously Sam isn't talking to Bobby on the phone, so who is he talking to who would have left silver bullets and stuff in their car, and who might have accompanied them to hospital - surely not Cas??

Author's Response:

Um.....did you mean the last vignette? Sam's talking to Dean, actually. He's not on the phone. When he mentions cleaning out the trunk of the Impala and the misaligned shotgun, he's talking to Dean while he's sitting beside him, waiting for him to wake up. Dean's got hold of Sam's hand, so he can't really go anywhere. And it would have been Bobby accompanying them to the hospital, since the wheelchair lift in the van is now working. The breaks in the conversation is merely Dean struggling to wake up, and fading in and out of sleep while Sam's talking. Sorry that it wasn't clear. 

Hope you enjoyed the story despite the confusion.

Hi Jules - feeling really dumb now, of course he's talking to Dean - doh!  No wonder he was going on about guns and stuff.... And it wasn't even early in the morning here or anything when I read it!!

Oh well, blame it on my age or something.  Anyhow, doesn't detract from my enjoyment!



Author's Response:

Hi - that's all right - although you did have me worried - I was just wailing and flailing to my beta on MSN. It's morning over there - late night here. Love time differences - not. 

Well, not sure how old you are, or if you are even as old as me, but I can tell you that over-40's moments as my good friend Supernaturaldh calls them, are a huge part of my daily existence, so I understand where you're coming from. 

And I'm glad you enjoyed the story. This one was flipping cursed - I had trouble with the title, my auntie had trouble with the banner, and my beta couldn't open the Word doc the first time I sent it through. 

Yikes.......

Very elegantly put together with the careful repetition and I very much liked the mirrored scene from Faith with the roles reversed.  Maybe Dean deserved to be put through the mill like this...gruelling though it was to read it!

Author's Response:

Thanks, Ann-Marie,

I've heard a few different theories, but that scene still really rattles my cage, on a number of levels. Whether it was Dean turning the tables on Sam about his wild hunches being risky as hell but turning out right (Route 666, Great Pumpkin), whether Dean was letting off some residual anger and resentment, or whether the writers just got him out of character for the sake of a laugh, it still rankles with me. 

I'm pleased you liked the Faith mirrored scene. I was also going to mirror the scene from IMTOD with the coffee falling from Dean's hand, but since Sam was hooked up to monitors in the story, it wouldn't have worked the same, so I had him still at the door when the dream Sam's heart gave out. 

Thanks so much for reading, and letting me know your thoughts.

Jules

Ok - love the interview format, and the interviewee being the Impala - genius.  The reason I think the Impala sounds male - the language used, and the fact he says he's an awesome wing-man....I don't know, it just kinda has a feel of Bobby about it somehow!!

Summary:

Time is running out for Dean. With only four short months until he is expected to stand up and be counted outside the fiery gates of hell, it appears Lucifer has recruited a new ally; The Trickstress. Disguised as a sassy barmaid in the small town of Sugar Creek, Scarlett is Dean’s ultimate weakness and paramount conquest (at least for the night). Cue a Truman-Show style nightmare in which the brothers find themselves unable to leave Sugar Creek, plus being constantly burdened by a sudden spark of suspicious deaths in the area.

I wouldn't mind slamming Dean up against a wall (though being 5 foot 2 I don't think I'd be that effective!)

Couple of English things for you -  "his nostrils flailing" I think you mean "flaring"

"capturing Dean into his nightmare" - I think should be "trapping" (subtle difference I know - you would use trapping something as an action in this instance, Dean could then be a captive in his nightmare.  You can capture something but that is usually used slightly differently)



Author's Response:

HEY!

It's a kink! ahahahah.... such a kink, from the first time I saw Salvation and then in Yellow Fever, I think when Sam slammed Dean into the wall, well not really, but he did in a way and WHOAH!!!! yummy!

thank you for pointing out the grammar mistakes!!! *hugs you* now I know not to do them again! :))) THANK YOU!!!! idk if you can fix the chapters here too?! huh.... so I guess I have to leave that be..damnit! LOL

thank you!!!! 

hugs,

Phew - that was a grim ending for Sam, and no hope for the real Dean out there in Bobby's yard, all alone and empty.  Let's hope the writers have a better ending in mind or we will all be gibbering wrecks by the time this season finishes!

Well written and interesting take on the missing scenes...

That felt so like the depths of despair for Dean at the end of that episode, didn't it?  I can see why you want this to be true - I just wonder if Kripke is more likely to push Dean into saying yes instead now though.....Being an atheist I'd find a God-like solution a bit of a cop out, but as a humanist, I just want Dean's pain to end!

Author's Response: Thanks for reading and reviewing.  I still can't see Dean saying 'yes'.  But with Kripke, you never know.  And his job is to keep us guessing, and he sure knows his job!  Take care, B.J.

Summary:

Photobucket

It was a mistake - Mere words spoken in anger. Words Sam wished he could take back, but sometimes even the most thoughtless of wishes can come true. And with that wish, his brother is gone - his soul ripped from him, taken back through time, and placed into the body of an unborn child by both Lucifer and Michael.

Now with only the reluctant help of Castiel, Sam must somehow convince a twenty-one year old firefighter, who looks alarmingly similar to Dean, that sometimes the bonds of brotherhood can not be broken even with angels and demons conspiring against them. **warning...some minor references to season five**

The second chapter is much stronger than the first I think, and this is starting to build into an interesting story.  I like the premise... It will be good to see where you go with it.  Oh, I could do without the teasers into the nest chapter (unless you made them a lot shorter perhaps?)


Author's Response:

Amber, I am glad to hear you like the premise of the story as I was a little worried what people would think of it. In the first chapter I was being purposely evasive because I don't feel it is a good thing to give away everything right off the bat, and maybe that is why the second chapter felt stronger to you.

I have the excerpts in place because I was worried what people might be wondering as to the direction of the story, but it is not necessary to read them if you do not choose to. Thanks for taking the time to read and for your comments. Hugs, Ember

This is getting quite gut wrenching now, with Sam having to face this innocent version of Dean who isn't his brother but is too much like him not to be.  You are really doing a good job on Drake's background too, so we can now see more of the pain he's felt.

Author's Response: Amber, Thanks for your comments, I am so thrilled to hear that I'm doing good on Drake's background as I am trying to make him enough like Dean where it will strike a cord with Sam, but different enough that he has his own distinct personality. Thanks again for reading. Hugs, Ember

Wonder if you are writing Sam's view of Dean's lack of attention from experience - I know my hubby is getting rather fed up with me constantly writing on my laptop!!

Couple of typos if you are interested "lost a couple of individuals of the heard." herd....

"It was slowly getting on his nerve. " nerves...

Minor stuff, still fun, wondering if you are going to build a story or keep these almost self contained?



Author's Response:

Ouch the type-o's made me cringe! Stupid butter fingers, but thanks :) I'm counting on this to remain open and update whenever I feel an urge. It's not gonna lead to anything sinister, I hope :( Most my stuff ends up being about one or both brothers getting in way over their heads and I'm really hoping to keep clean with this one :) But if you're looking for hurt or seriousness may I suggest another of my.... darker... stories? Those are the ones that keep me up at night.

Thanks again for the heads up. Much needed :D
