This isn't where I thought you were going with this at first, but it's a pretty good idea. I like the way you write Dean and Sam and I consider that just about the highest compliment there is - I'm picky about my boys and their characters.

Little gems I really liked:

Even for a non-Winchester, it would be hard to start a conversation with, "Well, I guess you're going to Hell after all. Sorry, dude."

Dean assumes that's his porn expression.

Then, before he knows it, he's written half of a long, melodramatic letter to Cassie and -honestly- anything would be better than that.

Dean is torn between hilarity at the thought of the things some people will believe and absolute sickening fear that Sam is one of those people.

Apparently, that wasn't Sam's porn face after all.

Dean wishes he had just been looking at some really disgusting porn.

Thank you very much. I certainly try to do them justice.

This is so lovely. Trust Sam to come at the problem from the 'other side', as it were. And I'm not sure what was cuter - the old playset blacks expression or Dean deciding the new, sneaky one must be Sam's porn-face.

Thanks! In my head, Dean has memorized and labeled all sorts of Sam faces. He could host a tour, or a documentary. "Now, this is a rare find. While we have been able to determine that Sam Winchester is not an asexual being, it took leading Sam experts over twenty years to record his porn face."

"Given the nature of the carefully-built relationship of our expert with the subjet, this aspect of Sam Winchester's life was not considered a priority by the funders of the research."

"Sam Winchesters often have trouble breeding in captivity, leaving Sam researchers fearful of extinction. Borrowing an idea from the study of Giant Pandas, researchers have recently tried exposing the Sam Winchester to sexually explicit videos in the hope of jump-starting his mating instinct. There has been no success reported as of yet.

Anecdotal evidence suggests that only one thing can inspire Sam Winchester courtship behavior: The Scent of Impending Doom. See chapters on Moore, Jessica and Unknown, Madison."

Hee! This is awesome. I love your Dean voice, and of course Sam would do that! It's perfect.

[egoteprovoco]

Well, Sam's a smart guy. Thanks for the voice complement. It's hard to know, sometimes, if what sounds right to me will be read the same way.

I re-watched Hell House in preparation for last week's Ghostfacers episode, and the idea just kind of clicked. Since they already know the basics of creating a tulpa, it could be all kinds of useful.

This is great! I love the way you write both the boys, and the idea is most interesting. And this: Apparently, that wasn't Sam's porn face after all. It was his angel face. was hilarious :-)

Thanks! That part, in particular, seemed very Sam and Dean to me. Dean tends to assume that everything should involve sex...especially something that makes Sam look sneaky and uncomfortable. But Sam's only looking that way because he knows how Dean feels about angels, and he knows how much ridicule he'd be in for if Dean found out about his plan before he was reasonably sure that it would work.
