This is fantastic! The story, the boys - your characterisation and writing is wonderful. Its wonderfully paced and has so many layers of depth - I am awed. Seriously, I could not stop reading. Thank you for sharing your brilliance!(this was just what I needed today)^_^

[regala_electra]

Thank you so much for the feedback! I'm pleased the pacing worked for you, I was so nervous about it, for this is the longest story that I've posted all in one go, I had hoped that I hadn't wearied the reader by the time they got to the end.

Oh. My. God. That was one wild ride! So much love. The banter is basically perfect and I love all the scenes of people getting dragged down, especially Cheryl, very very scary. Do you mind if I put this up on my recs list? Everyone should read this!

Dude, thank you so much!

I love all the scenes of people getting dragged down, especially Cheryl, very very scary.

Oh, wow, that's fantastic. I loved creating all these original characters and Cheryl's part was interesting to write because she has so much lifestory and I liked building that up to her very gory death because I'm terribly evil. So I'm glad it was scary.

Do you mind if I put this up on my recs list? Everyone should read this!

Mind? Good heavens, I'm honored. :-)

OMG. Where to start? The back and forth in time? The details of your language and how visceral it is? The grittier somehow more grown versions of Sam and Dean that are pegged down right? The awesome building up of the case, inch by inch?

This is one hell of a story, and amazing craftmanship both in language and plotting out.

Personally, my favourite part is how you actually freaked me out in the monster scenes. How you gave just the right detail to imagine what she looked like, but not all of it, that is always worse.

Just...love.

Good god, that is awesome to hear, especially as I drama-llama'd my way through this, tortured my poor beta Ignited with many, many questions, mainly ending with "this sucks, doesn't it?" The story's so different for me because it's this huge thing, I'd thought of it as "this is my double-episode of SPN with a bigger budget and a huge cast of supporting characters. With Very Important Bondage."

I have a very clear image of what my mermaid looks like but I never wanted to depict her clearly, because I thought she'd look a little scarier without getting too graphic, so it's fabulous that you felt that way. The monster scenes were originally written very out of order, I know I wrote the beginning scene (which...wasn't decided to be the

And yes, not fully describing her but just hinting (the silver, the green, what she's not or should have been but isn't rather than what she is..) uh boy...it freaked me out. And I'm a kid that grew up in horror stories. It takes a specific kind of atmosphere to freak me out.

(Also? *laughing* I was going to ask you if I could friend you cuz I can safely surmise from this story that your writing kicks ass, but you did beat me to it.)

[regala_electra]

I am in a friending mood, adding up my flist with awesome SPN people, so yep, you got added. ;-)

Cool that you got the atmosphere that I was going for - because the thing about the water (as someone who spent many-a-summer ON the water as a kid), it's the inability to SEE anything, oh that's the scary thing. It's why Jaws succeeded.

I mean, I loved jumping off my grandparents' boat into the Atlantic and never really feared getting "attacked" by anything, but the feeling of being in the water and the realization that you can't get somewhere safe, oh, it's hella spooky.

Oh, what fun, what fun!
I'm with Dean - Florida sucks. :)

I love him bonding with unlikely people, and Sam losing his ass at poker, and all the little asides in Sam's head about Dean, and then the monster, pricking away at her worshipers and at *Dean* and...

Oh, and lusting after the speedboat and apologizing to the Metallicar and 'wake me up in a week' and...

Yeah, just a ton of fun. Good stuff!

[regala_electra]

Hee, I like some things in Florida but they are too smurfy for Dean to like. "ooh, Ecpot!" doesn't hold the same geekjoy for Dean, I guess. ;-)

Oh, what fun, what fun!

*g* I love these things as well. I'd been nervous about the Marcos+Dean BFF thing, it felt natural to do because Dean's just chill about that.

Oh, and lusting after the speedboat and apologizing to the Metallicar and 'wake me up in a week' and...

Dean loves his car and he totally has to apologize for straying, you don't need any other kind of vehicle once you've got yourself a Metallicar. wake me up in a week is care of my lovely beta, Ignited, so on her behalf, I thank you very much.
