Fic: Lost and Found

Lost and Found
Summary: You know what they say about wishes and horses.
Follows Negative Space because I just felt so bad leaving poor Sam like that. Is not exactly a happy tale, though.

I didn't think Negative Space needed any follow up at all, but since you did one anyway, this was awesome.

“The hell you are,” snarls out of the space to his left," Oh, just perfect.

No more Dean shaped holes in his life. Those Djinn sure know their business.

Sad!Wee!Sam made me wibble. So I'm chalking this one up as a win for him. Originally I'd planned to do a scene in the warehouse with the girl strung up from the ceiling, etc., and Sam actively realizing what was going on and choosing to stay anyway. I don't know if his choosing came through here, but I think his desperation and need did. *cuddles him*

Am so glad you liked this. I was really worried it might completely wreck everything, so I'm glad that wasn't the case. Thank you so much!

I think it's better without an explanatory scene. And it didn't wreck anything. It's an excellent follow up!

OH. Oh, my goodness. This makes me... happy and sad at the same time. He finally gets to see Dean, but. Well, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, right?

You have such an awesome way with words: vivid and concise. ♥ I'm pretty sure anything you write is a good idea, jsyk.

For years I've wanted to write fluff, but have been unwilling to try. That's probably a good thing--but I appreciate the vote of confidence! <3

And yes, in this case I'm definitely saying poor Sammy's getting what he needs and wants, no matter how much it's going to destroy him in the end. At least he'll be happy for a little while (once he stops freaking out).

Thank you so much!

I agree with the earlier comment, the prequel to this stood alone very well, but I'm excited you followed up with another piece. Sam's anxiety and dread in this are palpable, this had much of the same eerie pressure of the first piece, too, though this was far more sad.

[honeylocusttree]

Yeah, Sam's gonna spend some time freaking out. He's not really equipped to cope with this, y'know? But I think he'll settle down eventually and things will be...better. For a given value of better.

It's sad. It makes me kinda sad, but not in a bad way. I'm glad you enjoyed this, and that it didn't lose the creepy weirdness of NS.

Thank you so much!

I love that image. His desperation and yearning would be so physical and completely overwhelming. And yes, I was going for hopeful and sad, because the outcome will of course be sad...or will it? Would it be better to live on, alone, or to have the time he has and the one thing he needs most of all? I know where my vote lies.

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed both of these. :)

Oh WOW! I just read both parts of this, and they're both so awesome and brain-breaking.

Your icon! *clutches*

And really, what does it mean, exactly, when you find yourself writing fix-it fic for your own fic?? This means something. It does.

Glad you enjoyed it and hope your brain is quickly repaired! Thanks a bunch!
