Okay, had this one written for MONTHS. First I hated it, then I didn't, then it was awful, then it wasn't and now it's all mellowed out, so I'm going to post it.

I love it.

I love this the story thru the eyes of the house, it's just wonderful and original. Keep it up, this was just fantastic.

Your welcome. I look forward to reading more of your fics

A pov I'd never have thought of - but one which was absolutely perfect. The protection the house felt towards 'it's family' - especially baby Dean (loved the bit about unruly gardens!) just fitted so well. Loved the little touches too: "I'd never had a baby before" and "I welcomed him with open doors"; the joy the house felt when the boys came back, then saying goodbye to them forever.

Best bit though - even the Winchester house became a sort of hunter! Thanks, you've helped me through a difficult day.

"I welcomed him with open doors"

I'm so glad you didn't think that came across as too cheesy, and that you liked the house as a character. Hee, a hunter-house! I never thought of it that way, but it's true.

Thank you very much for commenting!

Ha ha! I can make anything angst! I have angsty powers!

So glad you think the PoV works because, well, because it's a house and that's a bit weird but it works so yay! Thank you!

I'm so glad you decided to post this after all, I just love the house POV, it was very original and the different perspective it gives on the Winchester's story was fantastic.

I thought it was great how the house cared for the family, opening some doors and keeping others shut, and trying to warn Mary by flickering its lights. I loved the part where it (okay, "it" seems wrong, the house seems like more of a "she") hears the Impala's engine, and knows that her boys have come home.

Excellent story, one of my favourites. :D

Thank you very much!

I don't know why I thought of the PoV, but it was kinda fun to have someone else there and see what happened that night. And I agree that the house feels like a she.

What a lovely interpretation of such an unusual idea this was! I loved the house's language - the way its similes always related to house-type things, thing it would know and recognise, the way it refers to Dean being constructed, and I loved so much the way it kept its family as safe as it could, with cellar doors sticking, etc. Very nicely done. :)

I'm so glad you enjoyed it and liked the house similies (I was hoping I didn't go too OTT with them).

Thank you very much!
