Dean Winchester -- Certified Public Accountant! Sounds like an action series with a theme song and everything.

This was awesome. This is going to sound strange, but this sounded exactly like being in the principal's office. The language, the tone -- and the dynamics of all the Winchesters were just wonderful to watch. And I loved Beverly. Thanks for posting this!

Heh. I'm from a family of CPAs, and it would not be an *exciting* action series. Thanks for commenting: it was hard to know how a fic in this setting would come across.

Wow, I really enjoyed this--the outside POV is great, the way she slowly recognizes them through both their faces and their interactions.

Long hair: heh too. I'm not sure where the race idea came from in the first place, but Dean's "clueless 'cause he's colorblind" scene in Route 666 was so adorable that it had to be done again.

Nice solid POV and building a mystery. Glad the pun didn't throw you. I had a good time reading this and I hope to see more from you in the future.

loved it. I liked the flashback - I admit it I'm a sucker for weechesters in school!

Weechesters wasn't a genre I ever thought I'd do, but sometimes fics write themselves, y'know? Thanks for commenting.
