I've already flailed at you telling you how cute I find this story. Teen!Sam's need for independence. His stubbornness. His missing Dean. Him hanging around with kid!Adam and Kate. Bones. The way they just fit and how it doesn't seem awkward.

And that end. That end broke my heart to itty bitty pieces in ways I couldn't even imagine. John, and Dean, and when you ended with that phone call. It's like something decided to rip my heart out of my chest.

Seriously, this is wonderful

You are really, really wonderful, bb, for reassuring me about this. I genuinely hated it for a while, and now I'm zen, which is all thanks to you. ♥

I have to admit, it was interesting writing Sam during the beginning of his rebellious years. During the show, I was usually more sympathetic with Dean in flashbacks (especially in DSotM, where Sam actually talks about running away like this), because we could see how Sam wanting to leave hurts him, but getting into his head was interesting. It was a mix of love for Dean and John, and his quest for normality. Also, I loved writing him, Adam and Kate growing close, then the Winchesters arriving.

I ended on that note because, well, it is Supernatural, but I'm really glad you enjoyed it and that it made sense outside my head. I'm still foggy right now, so there's probably not even a lot of sense-making going on in this comment, lol. Thank you again, bb!

A story this cute should not leave me in tears but it did. I wanted them to be a family so much. Kate was just wonderful and bb!Adam, the cutest little kid ever and Bones stayed with them and was Adam's dog, but he did have brothers and a father and Sam could have had a mum. *cries some more*

Also, I see Adam's best friend is called Mikey. No foreshadowing there.

I'm sorry about the tears part, love. I didn't want to end on that note, but even when I started, I thought it would go mostly canon. Supernatural just isn't happy fluffy sunshine land, though I wish it was, and I wish they could all be a family. ;___;

Wee!Adam, Bones and rebellious teenager Sam were sometimes difficult to write, but fun. I also loved really writing Kate, who just doesn't get enough spotlight in either canon or fanon. John, though... I can't imagine him going any other way but the one he did, which is why I wrote it, but man, I wish he had given up hunting Azazel and let all his boys (let himself and Kate) be happy. She and Adam already loved Sam and vice-versa; Dean would have, too. It could have been magic!

And, of course, no foreshadowing with Mikey... *shifty eyes* He has cooties, after all... Thank you so much for reading this, bb! I'm glad you enjoyed it! ♥♥♥

In my head, Sam and Dean actually manage to save Adam this time.

I like your head. That will be my headcanon, too, because I'd be to mean to imagine otherwise, after letting Sam and Adam get so close.

Thanks for reading, bb! ♥

I really liked this. Sam's voice comes off very well, very authentically Sam as well as being a teenager's voice. I loved the brief moments where he thinks about John and Dean and how he does care about them but just wants some stability.

And bb!Adam omg, so cuuuute. I just want to snuggle him, and the way you showed Sam recognizing his own or Dean's features in him but not understanding it was very well done.

And the last line, man, that was idk brilliant? Inspired? something like that.

Thank you so, so much for reading! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Sam's 'teenager voice' was a bit inspired by my 13 year old sister. I think being thirteen, and a teenager in general, is trying to find your individuality and balance it with your family. I tried to capture that and I'm glad it shows, because I definitely didn't want to demonize Dean and John, despite writing Sam's (at first) anger-clouded point of view.

Little!Adam and Bones were the most fun to write. They were so small and excitable and I loved being able to hint at Adam's connection to Sam, which everybody but Sam knew. XD

Thank you for your kind comments! I'm delighted you enjoyed this and liked the last line! :D

Wee!Adam is so adorable. And Sam telling comforting him about not having a dad is perfect!

I would so have hated to be Dean when Sam was going through this phase.

I'm bummed that John didn't tell them that Adam was their brother, but that was never going to happen. =)

Thank you! I agree, being Dean would be difficult at this time. I actually have a 13 year old sister, too, so I kind of know how trying that can be.

Writing Sam and Adam's relationship was fun, though. I would also have liked them all to be a family, but as you said, John wouldn't be able to reconcile with that. He was still avidly searching for Azazel at the time. He would have thought he'd be putting Kate and Adam in danger, and even if that wasn't the case, he couldn't give up getting his revenge, unfortunately.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this! Thanks again!
