Summary: Only about ten feet separated them, but it might as well be a hundred. A hunt takes a few unexpected, unwelcome twists and turns

I think I've told you this before, but I do so love your icon. *pets doggie*
I'm glad you liked this!
Funnily enough, this is the first fic I've read where Sam tells Dean what the demon showed him
Really? Cool! When I wrote this, I wasn't sure how many people had written Dean finding out all the scary details. Actually, I didn't originally plan on that reveal taking place in this story. But I knew that what the demon showed Sam would be a large reason why Sam would be so worried, and it would up the angst factor if Sam actually 'fessed up to Dean. And I love me some angst. *g*
I like the way you make it so now the boys each have a task focused on the other.
That wound up being one of my favorite parts of the story, so it's cool having you point it out. I figure that for Dean, it's now not only a matter of keeping Sam physically well during the next year, but emotionally well, too. Dean doesn't want to leave an angst-ridden Sam behind, so he'll do what he can to make Sam as OK as possible before the deal is up.
And there was some awesome Bobby action to boot. That's always fun. *g*
*g* Bobby is made of awesome, isn't he? Such a great character, and so much fun to play with.

Hey, by all means, tell me twice. Who doesn't like hearing a compliment more than once? *g* He was only going to be my default for a little while, but he turned out to be quite the lady killer, so he stayed.

Yup. Hopefully Sam won't keep it to himself for long in season 3, just for his own sake, 'cause like you showed here, you know he's going to be mulling it over that when he's not trying to break the deal. (Can you imagine what the fic would have been like this summer if Dean hadn't told/Sam hadn't figured out that Dean sold his soul? I can only imagine the flood. *g*)

Yeah, I was thinking also that Dean here seems so glad to have a specific way to help Sam emotionally too. He'd probably like to tell Sam not to wear himself out trying to look for a solution, but knows that Sam won't listen and that he himself would never stop looking if he were in Sam's position as well. And now Dean's glad because he needs to help out Sam in some way all the time, the crazy guy. I do hope it does turn out something like this on the show.

:) He's definitely adorable.

Agreed. Sam needs emotional support on this one.

*g* Huge, massive flood. I confess I thought Kripke was going to do just that, leave Sam in the dark on the whole thing. Actually, I thought it would be an interesting twist. But I really like that Sam knows -- I'd rather not have Dean keep another Big Secret from Sam -- and how it set up such a juicy arc for season three.
