lol Sam-torture never used to be a kink of mine until I started reading your stories. I love the characterisation of Gene: especially his initial inability to cope with Sam

can't wait for more. ^_~

Thank you! I didn't mean to torture Sam in everything I write. It just sort of happened...

More 4 year old Sam!angst from Dak! Hurrah! (Culf isn't the only one who loves him *g*)

This is great, I really like Gene's initial internal struggle - very true to life. And then his realization that without the team, Sam has no one... And the exchange in the gift shop is perfect! Love Mr. Cotton too... : )

Look forward to the rest of it, I take it from the 1 of 3 that it's finished?

Thank you! I have been meaning to write this for ages, but other fics kept getting in the way. It's very close to being finished. Still a few things to work on, but I wouldn't call it a WIP, per say.

Is it bad that when I realized what this fic was about, and who wrote it, I went, "YesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesYES! EEEEeeeeeeeeeeeee! (*chairbounce*)" Because after SASG, I have an inordinate amount of love for Not-So-Little!Sammy, and you finally wrote more of him! YAAAAAY!

Just...just, awwwwwwww! (*cuddles NSL!Sammy and gives him cake*)

I can't wait for the next chapter!

I loved writing NSL!Sammy, but it's taking me forever to get back to him. Now I can't get him to shut up and this fic keeps growing exponentially. Whoops.

Thank you!

(And, what is your icon from, because that Simm is adorable and I want to hug him...)

[jexxer]

I'm not sure which Baby!Simm character he is, only that the awesome Snowgrouse made the icon.

Oh no, another fic growing out of control. Whatever shall we do? < /deadpan>

Hey, Sammy! Look at the cute 'lil bunnies! I'm sure your Aunty Dak would love it if you brought more in to play with her! =D

Poor little Sammy! I hope Gene takes care of him once he leaves the hospital. I'd love to see him in Gene's house, treating the Missus as a surrogate mother.

And the sheep! Awwwwwww, that's so cute. Gotta love plushy toys. ♥

More soon, please. Your angsty!Sam stories are addictive.

[dakfinv]

It looks like you'll getting what you want, then. Sammy does need some strong parental figures to look after him...

Thank you!

Sam is going to swear out restraining order against you, missy.

I am hoping that instead of being the result of brain damage, Sam's current state has something to do with his personality being jolted back to the 4 year old that he actually is in 1973. His physical body has been wracked by so many traumas that his mind, soul, whatever you want to call it, is out of phase with exactly where it is supposed to be. But this is only because I want him to get better quickly and having his adult mind snap back into his adult body is so much easier than trying to recover from a severe head trauma.

I love how you write Gene in your stories. He is gruff, pig-headed and obstinate but he always ends up caring. I hope you continue the theme with this one.

I am hooked and can't wait for the next chapter.

He can't if he's currently being brainwashed/chained up under my desk. I mean, erm, yeah. I, uh, I better watch out... (for Gene at least.)

Thank you!
