[Not-the-Director's Commentary] Angels at the Door by brightly_lit

[kalliel]

A while back, I expressed an interest in spending some extra time with a fan work, because writing out commentaries for my spn_summergen fics proved a worthy reflective exercise. brightly_lit graciously volunteered her fic, Angels at the Door. Since I didn't write it, obviously I can't offer "director's commentary," but I figured I could indeed offer my thoughts,

I wish I felt more articulate to comment on this. (Am I always saying that to you?) I just... I feel so happy that there are people like you who will do something like this. I enjoyed the analysis SO MUCH that it deepened my already incredibly rich experience of reading the fic, which is one of my absolute favorites. Thank you for writing this! Man, I would definitely go read any fic you analyzed this way, even if it was outside my usual genres (we all gotta bust out of those sometime).

Thank you for writing this! When I graduated from college in the mid-90s, I thought THEN that literary analysis was dead, and that I'd never find anyone who actually ENJOYED doing it like I did-- particularly about the kinds of things I like to read. So thank you for keeping it alive. <3
