Well, now. You're just going to break some hearts with this one, aren't you.

*evil laugh*

Now aren't you glad I didn't bring it to writing group?

jethrien February 27 2007, 21:43:21 UTC

I wouldn't have minded. I'll read anything you write, you just have to be willing to take the teasing. (The fact that, no matter how angst-drenched, you're a pretty good writer helps quite a bit.)

Oh, this was very nice. I really enjoyed this.

Thanks! It's so great to get speedy feedback. Even if the reply is...not so speedy. :)

Dean wanted to deny it, but he knew it was true. He'd do anything for his brother, give him anything he needed. Now Sammy needed his freedom, and Dean could give him that.

He let his arms drop and tucked both his hands into his pockets. He nodded. Later he would think about it, and wonder what else he could have done, how if Sam had just taken what he offered, they would have stayed together. Or whether it would always have ended this way, from the moment Dean picked him up from Stanford-if it was inevitable that someday Sam would go back to that life and leave Dean behind.

For now he just said, "I love you too, Sammy," and watched his brother walk away.
*wibble*

Glad you liked it! I of course reread this and was like...I wrote that?

OH MY GOD ANGST. This is a really freakin good fic, but oh. I'm so speechless. Please tell me you'll write a sequel where things might get better? Seriously, I'm so flustered I can't even write a decent review!

Big plus for having unrequited Wincest, though, even if it makes me despair. Hurts. *is broken, although in a good way*

I loved the whole narrative arc of this. Great stuff.

Thanks so much! I have actually started on the sequel... I love me some Wincest but I hadn't seen any truly unrequited stories either and wanted to see how it would go. Glad you came along for the ride.

Sequel yaaay! I'll have to watch out for that. :D

The buildup to what I knew would happen had me squirming in my chair.

Your dialogue is perfect. The dynamics are how I picture Sam and Dean.

This is the first unrequited Wincest fic I have read and it tugged at my heart. There is nothing like some good angst and you write it very well.

ivy03 March 1 2007, 22:07:07 UTC

Ooo! Squirming! I don't think I've managed that before. I had a conversation with my friend a while ago about how the conceit of Wincest is that even when it's unrequited it's portrayed as inevitable, something they both want deep down. So we were thinking what if it wasn't? What if you found out your sibling was lusting after you? It would be horrible. Hence me setting out to right the great Sam/Dean breakup story.

I try hard at the angst, so it's good to know it worked. Glad you liked it!
