Supernatural gen ficlet - Not in Kansas Anymore

May 16, 2006 01:44

Okay, on the advice of lonelybrit I decided to write some Supernatural Daddy angst. The bunnies were screaming at me, and I needed to get this down, so I can get on with my other fics. I've only seen up to "Something Wicked", and I'm unspoiled, so this could be jossed/kripked in later eps ( Read more... )

post something wicked, supernatural fic, pre-series

!!!!

I knew you'd be good at writing SPN :) Just, ohhhh. *grins happily*

But, um, the only thing I would say is that remember Mary died when Sam was 6 months old? So the line about her bringing him home from school is not quite right. But LOVE. *hugs tightly*

That was sort of the point - this was John imagining how it would have been if Mary hadn't died. And trying to pretend to himself that he would have treated Dean just the same if Mary had never been killed, and they'd never gone 'hunting'.

And the final bit is John realising that he'd lying to himself - he'd never have left his kids alone the way he did if their life had been normal.

I kind of hoped I'd hinted at that in the whole "Not in Kansas Anymore" reference - the idea of them going 'over the rainbow'.

I have a habit of being a bit obtuse. Sorry *g*

I added this to the Notes for the fic, because now I'm paranoid that people will think I got the timeline wrong. *is not really incredibly anal about her fic*

*hits self over head*

I really shouldn't be allowed on the internet when I'm this tired, I've already made about a billion mistakes today! It makes *perfect* sense when you put it that way, and I apologise profusely for being dumb :)

Anyway, hoping you write some more (which I will read *carefully*), and enjoy the rest of the season. *hugs*

*hugs you tightly*

Don't worry - I've had a extremely stressful day at work, and I was looking forward to sitting down for half an hour and surfing... and I read your post, and I was panicking like an idiot, thinking that everyone would think I had no idea about the show...

I'm glad you enjoyed it - and I am looking foward to seeing more of the show, and writing more of Dad and his boys. *g* Just as soon as Giles and Wes get sorted. *g*
