"Told you," Dean announced grumpily. "The damned thing isn’t selective. My death won't even be meaningful."
This is a great line! It's so Dean.

Awesome fic & I'm happy that I got to create art for your story.

Hah! That artwork...I put on 5lbs just looking at those delicious treats!

(And the pies looked pretty good too!) Thank you for the pretties.

Heehee, love this so much. Poor Dean, what a disappointment, he was so anticipating that pie, and it turned out to be a maneater!
This was brilliantly written, and I just love poor Dean's resignation to his fate as pie fodder! :D
And wonderful art by jdl71 - it fits the story perfectly!

I think that if Dean could choose how to go out, he might just decide that becoming one with a pie would be the best. I guess we'll see at the end of Season 15

Poor Dean! I love that this disturbing (and hilarious) incident wasn't enough to put him off pies, he'll just bake his own in future!

The artwork is great, too, what a scrumptious collection of pies - and men!

Dean is tough to distract, and Pie is second only to Baby as his true love. Besides, he's perfectly capable of baking a mouthwatering pie. The artwork fit the story perfectly.

Poor Dean! Funny that it turned out to be Balthazar, but I can believe it.

Thank you!

What a hoot! I have to say, I think Dean got off pretty lightly here given that he missed all the signs. And at first I thought the whole thing was a bit more demonic (they have the ovens for it), but an annoyed angel is still not to be taken lightly, and Balthazar never did like them! Also, Herbert the pie is not to be trifled with :D

Good choice of pictures and colour scheme to go with the story - at the end was that ‘Eat more pie’ or “Eat more, pie”, nice touch, lol!

I am mentally writing a sequel, where Herbert breaks out of Balthazar's control and goes to stalk Dean, because once you've tried Dean, one taste is just never gonna be enough.

Eat more, pie, indeed! LOL
