I liked it. Interesting look at John's decisions. It's probably tru, but it doesn't make it easier :( He has alot of damage to undo, he started with Sam, he really needs to talk to Dean. I hope he gets the chance to do it next season! *sigh*
Nice fic - I like how you manage to portray how heartbroken John really is over the decision, in such a short space - and yet conversely manage to show just how strong he is in sticking to his resolve.
Aw, thanks! Yeah, definitely a delicate balance. I don't envy John his life's mission, or what it's surely cost him.
But seriously - gen? You're killing me here :P
*pets you* Poor baby, you're just starving for smut, eh? Well, the SPN crossover fic is in the hands of my beta, and I just finished Chapter 2 of 'Five Ways John Winchester Didn't Get Laid', so I'm sure there'll be smut aplenty for your delectation very soon. ;)
Did you just say the crossover fic was in the beta stage??!! *flails with anticipation* EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Didn't I already tell you? Hm. It must've been someone else, then. Yes, it's being beta'd. In fact, she said she'd have it for me tonight, so unless she wants me to rewrite whole sections, it may well go up tomorrow. If not, it'll have to be Monday, since I'm away Friday morning to Monday morning.
Ah, I shall soon have a smut overload *cackles maniacally*
*snort*
I need the second half of the season to come out on DVD. I need my Winchester fix :(
You could always DL it...that's what I did. And poo on them, making you have to buy two sets of DVDs. I've already preordered the COMPLETE first season...
This is really interesting. I'd honestly never ever thought about John's perspective on this and the possibility that he might lead a nasty back to his boys. I have a love/hate relationship with the man because, seriously, Dean was DYING and he didn't even have the grace to call? but he is so damn sexy and gruff...

I admit to being biased because I love John and want to forgive him anything...so when he does something that seems like a totally asshatty thing to do - like not racing to Dean's side in Faith - I want to find a rationale for it.

ITA. I can buy my own fanwanking about John not going in person, but not calling? Hm. I think I feel a sequel to this ficlet coming...

Isn't he just? That man is so hawt it ought to be illegal.

Thank you! Yeah, I don't always understand John. So it's fun to try to rationalize what he does and why.
I hope he gets the chance to do it next season!
Yeah, you and me both. If, God Forbid, they write his character out in S2, I will NOT be a happy camper.
Thanks for commenting!

Ooops! *resurrects*
I love John Winchester, and you got inside his head and heart so well here. Beautiful work, hon. *cries for the lost, lonely man* *sniffle*
Thanks so much. Yes, that man is decidedly one of the most conflicted characters I've ever come across...
Also, I adore your icon.
Heheh, thank you. Made it myself. Because John needs sex love. ;)

*grin* Great minds think alike, and all of that. ;)

Thank you! It's fun to try to crawl into John's head and attempt to make sense of how he sees the world...
