OMG IT WAS SO HARD NOT TO TELLLL YOU ABOUT THIS, especially after you told me who yours was IT WAS SO HARD omg I was like...~stealthily asking you questions about your fic preferences under the guise of RBB right BUT IT WAS TOTALLY mostly ALL ABOUT THIS, ngl.

the funniest part is of course, a year ago i would've gone "femslash...not so much." AND THEN ITS LIKE A FRYING PAN HIT MY HEAD AND MADE ME SEE THE LIGHT.

Claire is like...the most fascinating character, because yeah, we've seen Jimmy and how being an angelhost affected him, ever-so-briefly, but she's just a child and to see her father give up basically his life to one, after HAVING that one inside her, it's like omg so intimate, and I just think that she'll always go around with this bitter hole in her chest from witnessing that and having to live with that knowledge, and like, Jo's kind of the same way, as far as the daddy issue and Winchester feelings and this need to DO SOMETHING because of what happened in her childhood and I JUST HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS. I wish I could've worked more of their daddy!angst in, but it is what it is and I'm glad you like ittttttttttttttttt ♥ ♥ ♥

hahahaha, oh man, you totally surprised me. very good stealth there :D

FEMSLASH IS DEFINITELY THE LIGHT, AWWW YEAH lolol :))

Children get traumatized and grow up with it in such interesting ways. I love thinking about how she adapts to, embraces, or recovers from Castiel. How many ways does she feel his loss? What does she know about him? Is he a gift or a curse? Is he a memory or a hole in her memory? AND JO AND FATHERS AND FEELINGS :DDDD <3333 I super enjoy it, yaaayyy
