Enjoyed this! There were some bits I especially liked. One was Dean in the hospital and the name they used for him. There’s something of horror about the way “Mr. Smith” could just ask the nurse to change the name on the chart that they use to refer to him - and they just do it. I think it’s the tearing apart of a name and its referent, something that’s so structurally fundamental to any culture. Brrrr ( ... )

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. There is definately something truly horrifying about losing your identity. He didn't have any issues with language or reading etc, the memories of his life and identity were what Raphael took from him.

Its so nice to hear that 'Cas' appearing in the early part of the fic worked, it was a lot of fun to write.

Thanks for pointing out the typo, no matter how many times I read over a fic something inevitable slips through.

I loved then ending! If only Dean had that realization in the show :(

Great story, I love how you wrote the whole Dean without memory and Cas helping him thing :D

I just love amnesia fics because it's always fun exploring the character trying to discover themselves and the truth.

I love how you showcased Dean and Cas struggling here and Cas using his memories to help Dean remember was both heartwarming and bittersweet.

I have always loved amnesia fics too, so was very nervous writing one myself. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks glad you enjoyed it. That scene with the dream of his scars and the realisation that something else was missing other than his memories was such a fun scene to write.

OMG...this..this was a perfect AU. This is what I needed to rally me back to my Show again. This -

*Cries*

Thank you. For the faith, the hope and the warm love that sang through this piece. The sheer stubbornness of Dean Winchester - calling up the face of his savior to save himself, to ease his loneliness and heartbreak. I'd like to think he whistled up Doctor Novak to help him through because he called for Cas when Raphael attacked him. I NEED to believe that - I need to believe they can save each other.

Thank you...*clings* THANK YOU.

Thanks hun, it was a lot of fun to write. Raphael definately underestimated Dean's sheer stubborness and the strength of his friendship with Cas. Here's hoping they can save each other in canon as well. Now I just have to fix my deancasbigbang fic and get it ready to post in a couple of weeks.
