You has made fic!

(claps & makes embarrassing dolphin-like noises)

Oh, this is hurty on so many levels...physical, mental, emotional, even paternal, I guess. I love me some Johnny, and you captured him so well here.

And Dean's "attitude" is just...well...HOT. (grins)

Does this mean your Muse is engaged again? Might we get a new chappy of "Sharpness" soon? I've been re-reading what I'd printed out and it's so damn good woman! You gotta finish it!

Really enjoyed this.

[kimonkey7]

I DID fic. *smiles sheepishly* So, yeah. I think maybe - hopefully - my muse is reengaged. The next 24 hours at least, lol. *is stern with muse*

And Sharpness, well...I have about 2/3 of chappy seven in the bag, and a headstart on eight (this one's gonna be nine chaps in total, best guess) all the while re-editing the front end. My intention is to have it finished before I post any further words. I feel just awful about this WIP, in the sense that I never EVER intended to leave readers hanging like that. Life just sort of...ERUPTED all over that one. It's been hard to come back to, but I like it enough to finish, and that's pretty high praise for me, from me, lol.

So, yes. I'll make the promise out loud here:

You WILL get a new chappy of Sharpness, and when you do, it'll be a three-for-one, because the bastard will be COMPLETE. I can't promise a date, but...there you go.

And thank you for the kind words, my dear. :)

Oh, I do love John and Dean all bossy. Hee hee. What a great way to end the night.

“You really wanna make another dick decision tonight?”

I kind of like Dean's new clang of brass balls too.

Thanks for the posting and the fun.

[kimonkey7]

I would pay hard fucking cash to hear Dean drop that line on John. Money I'd be willing to do questionable things for.

Also?

HI! *waves* How are you and your nursing adventure? I know it's a struggle, but I'm soooo rooting for you. Just thought you should know. *nods*

Thanks for reading. I'm glad it was fun. :)

*smish*

Thanks. It has been a hell of a week. Hurt my back. Fucked up on prednisone. Thank God for Valium. Failed a test, past it on the next try. I am on an emotional rollercoaster that I deem hormone related (prednisone) It may be synthetic, but it is a killer. I am tired of crying and bitching and moaning.

So thanks for asking. This fic made it all better though. Thanks for making me laugh. And I think I would love to hear Dean drop that line on John too. *grins*

[kimonkey7]

*hugs*

Dude, Prednisone SUCKS. Been there, done that. Ugh. :(

I will continue to keep you in my thoughts, and send the good ooga-booga fingers your way.

*hugs again*

bossy (and short)

[quirkies]

there's a sammy sized hole and dean is going to be mother-hen to somebody, dang nab it. :)
i usually think of the period after sam leaves as being angsty and silent and manly. but in four years they must have achieved their own balance. this is a great picture of how that might have worked. to some extent it's what every parent of an adult child has to go through adjusting the almost-not-quite peer that's emerging. but it's the winchester version so that process is marinated in guilt that's been around for 20 years and spiced up with some scary injuries. *basks in the winchesterness*
*basks in the kimonkey fic*

Re: bossy (and short)

[kimonkey7]

Halloooooo, my dear! :)

Yeah, in my head, John and Dean had to find that balance beam of amiableness - Dean ascerting his individual convictions, and John needing to make reparations and loosen the reigns. It's a tough love, but it's love.

I wonder if our parents remember the first time we stood up to them the way we do; if it filled them with fear and excitement, sadness and surprise, like it did us.

*smishes you*

[layne67]

Perfect. Perfect.

My favourite part - John had no idea when it was, exactly, Dean had managed the new clang of brass balls, but he was pretty sure it was the morning after Sam left for California. He’d been hearing the percussion loud and clear, of late.

Love this!!

[kimonkey7]

Heee. I was kinda likin' myself for that bit you put up there. :)

I dunno about perfect, but thank you. I'm glad you liked it.

[kimonkey7]

*mwah*

Thank you, friend. :)

And I hope things are working out with the new ward. *sends positive vibes*
