Argh, so much blood... a bit sickening* tbh but very well written nonetheless (*that wasn't meant to be a criticism btw!. The last one made me sad all over again...

Re what had Sam promised Ruth... I don't think he did, did he? I've always interpreted it that he made a promise to Annie to go back, and that's what he's referring to. And Ruth knows that her son is an honourable man and always keeps his promises... ah, but wait, doh - the question refers to the fic and not the show doesn't it. So yes, c'mon - what did Ruth think that Sammy had promised her?!? lol.

To sum up I'm not entirely sure I could say that I 'enjoyed' the fics exactly but they certainly pushed all the right buttons and it was great the way you used a different character each time to show the reaction.

Sam-whumping... hmm, I have to confess that I relish a bit of that too, mainly because JS suffers so well, doesn't he?! I do sometimes wonder if there's something wrong w/me that I like those kind of fics (particularly the angst that goes with it) but have decided that if there is, well I guess I'm in good company, lol!
