This was great! I loved it. You managed to hold my attention straight through. Loved your description of the Barbie suite and the Hunters' Lodge. Hurt, out of it Dean deserves an extra thumbs up. Hope you have another story in the works.

Author's Response:

Thank you so much Nilah, I'm delighted that you enjoyed it, I had a lovely time playing with the motel suites, the Barbie one was terrifyingly based on a real one I had stayed in once in Somerset, UK - scary huh!!  I must admit I'm rather fond of Hurt Dean myself!

Next story only in very early plot stages at the moment.

Thank you again for the comments and reviews. x Jane x

Summary:

fox carries hare

I wrote this story under the penname Guiltypleasure--so that it would be separate from the thread that starts with What Goes Around,  Comes Around. 

--This story takes place somewhere after the St. Louis incident--the brothers have been running from the law for some time.  Dean is stalked and caught by a woman with a grudge,  but her need for revenge is a tool that a demon finds useful.

Wow. You keep writing and I'll keep reading. Can't wait for the next installment.

Author's Response: Thanks--I probably will keep writing just to erase the season three ending from my mind.--I'm not a fan of the show's current direction..but at least in this realm we can direct things ourselves.

 
Summary:

Bobby asks the boys to help on a routine vampire hunt for an old friend but all is not as it seems. Who exactly are the hunters and who are the hunted?

Someone wants Dean's blood..literally. Sam needs to find them and stop them.

Usual disclaimers apply.

Hah! Loved it!

 



Author's Response:

Thank you, Nilah. 

 
Summary:

Suffering from a bullet wound, carrying the guilt and grief of a failed job, while worrying about his brother’s sanity and safety and with only two months to live, Dean’s situation is rather hopeless and he's almost ready to throw in the towel.  

Just when he thought it couldn't get any worse, an old enemy bent on revenge returns to make life miserable for the already battle weary Winchesters.

Set immediately after "Jus in Bello".

Wow! I am always on the lookout for Jus In Bello tags. I loved that episode and feel that the hurt Dean moment could be prolonged. Nice to see I have a like minded author out there.

Can hardly wait.

 

Nilah.



Author's Response: Ooh I love a good "Jus In Bello" tag!  (Which is of course why I had to write a tag of my own) It was such a fantastic episode and I too would've loved to see more to the gunshot wound in that episode (obviously LOL).  Thank you so much for the review, it means a lot!    

 
Summary:

 

The hunters become the hunted when someone from Dean's past resurfaces with the desire to kill.

With Dean vanishing, Sam races to save his brother before he is lost forever.

Awww, that was sweet. I know there are lots of fics covering both sides - Dean's expertise or his ineptitude in the kitchen. I'm partial to your take on it. Damn! A sexy man who can cook. Now that's really something!


Author's Response:

Hi there

I'm with you there.. good cook, sweating over a hot stove!! Yumm! Dean's a practical kinda of guy and cooking is a skill I think he'd pick up. Can look after Sam properly without cooking skills!

Thanks for the review, glad that you liked it!

It’s simple really…two brothers, in the dark, talking. That’s it. That’s the genesis of it. But, as with all things in the world of Dean and Sam, nothing ever stays simple, or easy, or straightforward. Welcome to an exercise in dialog…  One shots of varying length.

No spoilers, not set in any season in particular, although after season 1. Completely AU.

Supernatural is the property of the CW and Mr Kripke, what I do to the boys thought is all my own wicked imagination.

Thanks!  Yes, it is.  Sam is finally expressing himself and I do think there is still more depth to that boy.

I do love the grey areas, and Supernatural excells at allowing its characters to be complex, multi-faceted men.

Especially since Dean doesn't fit the main prerequisite of burial - he isn't dead. At least not yet. But if Sam doesn't find him soon, that might change quickly.
