It was one of Sam’s bad days.

Cas had thought he was prepared for it, but seeing the first-hand affects always destroyed his preparation and threatened to shatter his calm façade. Sam was pale and thin and shaking and damp-eyed and anything but the strong, calm, sharp young man he’d first met. Alan had told them he hadn’t been out of bed in two

That was awesome! I was happy to see another story from this 'verse, even if it's short. Andy is cool! He might be just the kind of friend Sam needs. (Why do I get the feeling more of Azazel's kids might show up among the addicts?)

[cosmic_medusa]

You feel correct! Not all of them will be from Azazel though. I just loved Andy. I wanted him to be a buddy to Sam. And I don't meant to imply that the demon kids are addicts because they're evil. But I liked the way the show portrayed Sam's spiral into addiction as both a thirst for power and control, and a growing physical dependency.

YAY ANDY I LOVE YOUUUU!!!!!!! He was my favorite character from Season 2, and I just really like his attitude about everything. I think he could be a really good influence on this Sam. and I love his like complete lack of brain-to-mouth filter, its really kind of endearing. Although Sam still makes me want to cry and hug him to death. This was awesome and I can't wait for more!!!

Thank you! I loved Andy. I thought he was such a good-hearted guy, even if he did enjoy playing around in people's heads from time to time. :) And I wanted Sam to have a buddy. He'll be around more! <3

I loved this! It's good, I think, for Sam to have a friend who can understand what he's going through. Dean and Castiel are awesome and supportive, but Andy will be able to empathize with him.

As always, I'm looking forward to seeing more in this 'verse!

[cosmic_medusa]

Thank you! Plenty more on the way! :)

I'm one of those people who isn't into slash, but yes - you do a nice job of making it sort of matter-of-fact. Well done. I'm enjoying this verse. I have a drunk/drugged/confused Sammy addiction. Perhaps you could write one where Sam is messed up and tries talking to Dean or Cas? Maybe he calls Cas because he doesn't want Dean to see him "like this"? Just a thought. Well done you!

[cosmic_medusa]

Heehee. Thank you! I am currently working on a few messed-up Sammy's. There will def stories from his time at Rosemount, and I'm currently working on one where he hits "rock bottom" while living on the street. I like your idea of him not wanting Dean to see him "like this." I plan to expand on Sam's anxiety-induced phone calls, etc. So hopefully you'll keep visiting and find what you crave!

Yay! Another installment in this 'verse! And I've always had such a soft spot for Andy, so I'm thrilled you included him!
This was great!
