This greatly expresses how Sam and Dean interact. Superbly done.

That's it, then. I am officially not going to read another fic tonight, because I want this wonderful thing to be the last SPN fic I read in 2013.

Love this. LOVE. ♥♥♥

thud. I am broken. And then healed.

I wanted to copy/paste my favorite lines, but there were too many to fit in a comment space! (To quote a beloved movie: "Lemme 'splain. No, there ees too much. Let me sum up."

He never made it up to the northern California coast with Jess, much as they talked about it. So many things he didn't get to do with Jess. It's kind of fitting that it should end here. Love that you give it this sort of bookend feel to the series.

That leads to thoughts of Osiris and the various gods they've taken down over the years. Dean assumed they went to Purgatory with the other monsters, but Sam had always maintained that it wouldn't make much sense for gods from another pantheon to be bound to the Catholic schema of the afterlife. To which point Dean would usually say something about how it didn't matter, dead was dead, even though the two of them knew better than anyone else how much of a lie that could be. Such a valid observation! As someone raised *very* Catholic, it's interesting to me to see the show's take ( ... )

Wow, thank you! I really appreciate the comments. Especially since you picked some of my favorites, and the "crowning glory," as you put it, was written before most of the story was.

Thanks for the rec and the good wishes, and I return them to you!
