Wow, thank you so much for this, holy cow! I can't get over how well thought out this fic is. THIS WORLD! *flails* The quotes from Revelation, the way you've woven the actual text of it into the destiny Sam and Dean find themselves wrapped up in. Thank you for a lovely Antichristmas gift!

(I loved Zachariah getting stabbed in the face. And CASEY. *adores* Made my NIGHT, man)

Overthinking things is my forte! I saw your prompt and I physically NEEDED to find a way to make it make sense.

I kind of love this world too. If I hadn't been such a lazy bum and put it off to the last minute it would probably be about twice this length.

So happy you liked it!

Very enjoyable read. Did the prompt lead you towards Dean actually being the antichrist, or did you just immagine the story that way? I really liked that turn of events.

[randomfandom93]

The prompt I was actually left with was: “Hell got it wrong. Sam's not the Antichrist after all...Dean is. Or course, Sam's more than willing to play the part and front for his brother.”

So my brain melted down, yelling 'Does Not Compute', I went and actually read all the judeo-christian mythology on the Antichrist, and after that...it actually might make more sense than Sam being the Antichrist.

Glad you liked it.

This is brilliant. I was a little sad, thinking Cas wasn't going to get to make an appearance, but voila - there he is! Sammy can rest easy; Dean and Cas will keep Heaven befuddled for as long as they like.

I know.

I was trying to figure out how the hell to reboot this verse with all the epic writing going on so far.

So I said to myself, 'You know what kicked ass? The very end of Season 2 and beginning of Season 3. ...Aw...But I need a way to work in Cas.

Because really. Is it SPN without Cas anymore?

I shall have to write a sequel to work in Crowley too. Then my life...er... this verse will be complete.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Wow I would never have guessed you wrote it so quickly. It is extremely well plotted, with good characterization. Truly fitting of the Lamb that Spake Like a Dragon's natal day

Thank you.

Well, I had the research from Revelation, the quotes, a premise, a basic outline that almost entirely rewrote itself as I went along and about 6 hours of sleep, but I'm rather pleased with the end result myself.

More pleased that someone else actually enjoyed it though. :D

Ok, first, I refuse to believe that no one else in the world could have beta'd for you. You just ran out of time, and here you go, blaming me. You're lucky I love you, bitch.

Only found two typos- an extra 'the' when they went back for the teacher and a missing word or something when dean crowned sam the king of hell at his right hand.

I like the story, especially your version of hell.

Canada is lovely but full of canadians, and none of them is you. Miss you.

[randomfandom93]

*Sticks out Tongue*

You did help a bit by giving me your empty house to write in. Thank you for that.

I do rather like my version of hell...though I guess now it's joss'd. ...Or Edlund'd, by making Crowley even more Good Omens-y by Canonizing Terry Pratchett's version of Hell.

Your last sentence implies that I am Canadian.

I am rather hurt by this, as I have never pronounced a letter 'Zed'.

I miss you too, but plan to take the passive agressive approach and exercise, write, clean and film exhaustively for the next two months until you get back and I can afford better. :P

That's right. *motions to flab* ALLL OF THIS.

Dear, i'm working on a farm thirty hours a week whether i like it or not. You really think you'll beat me in the weight loss department?

I will totally bet you that i will have increased my sexiness by a greater percentage than you when i get back. I phrased it like that to give you a handicapp because you are naturally sexier than me and i doubt i'll catch up.

Now we just need some way to quantify sexy.

[randomfandom93]

Typos fixed.

Also, YOU didn't figure out where Chapman was from? Really?

Come on now. Check your geeky nostalgia files.
