Love and Communication

Rated PG-13 for language and a bit of blood.

Disclaimer: Anything involving Supernatural does not belong to me. Even the title of this fic doesn’t belong to me. I stole it from a lovely Cat Power song. The song actually has nothing to do with the story - I just liked the title.

Nice. I loved that little missing scene between the wacky shack of hell and the Impala, lol. Thanks for sharing. Good job, my friend.

[a_decembrist]

Thanks! And heee...the wacky shack of hell. More hellish than wacky, I think.

This is absolutely wonderful! I think, with John being quite the absent character, it is hard to get a fix on him and his thinking. I think you did it perfectly!

[a_decembrist]

Thanks! :) I was a little worried that his voice was bouncing all over the place (I think it was a bit anyway) because I just can't make up my mind as to what I think would be going through his head. In the end I decided it would be a big ol' mess anyway, so there. :)

Well, it may have been a little bouncy - but that's what I think really works. Given the situation he was in, I don't know that John would have a clear-cut reaction to anything/everything. There are too many factors to simply say 'this is what he thinks and feels, and it never varies'. I found the story to make total sense.

[a_decembrist]

Well, as long as it makes sense, I'm happy. :)

Oh, I loved this! Like you, I'm no fan of John and I was very curious to see how you were going to paint him. Personally, I loved that you made him suffer his own slings and arrows. Justice. Payback.

I wrote a piece like this one from Sam's POV and I'd love to link it to yours as a fitting companion piece. May I?

Now, we both need to tackle Dean's POV. *shivers* That's not going to be any picnic!

Very, very well done. Thank you for sharing.

[a_decembrist]

Please do! I'd love to read your story. :)

Yeah, John may have suffered some but I don't know if it'll be enough to change his ways. It's that whole old-dog-new-tricks thing, you know? And yeah, Dean's POV...poor guy. All I have to say is I'm so glad Sam came around or else Dean would be on is own.

Thanks! I'll set up the link tonight. I think they go together so well, it'll be neat to link them.

And yeah, Dean's POV...poor guy. All I have to say is I'm so glad Sam came around or else Dean would be on is own.

I know! I loved that moment more than just about anything about that whole ep. One side effect that we haven't seen yet will be Dean's reaction to it. It can't help but buoy his spirits to know Sam trusted him over John.

*sigh* Is it September yet?

[a_decembrist]

Man, I know. I must admit that I haven't been a huge fan of Sam either (so basically, the only character I really like on the show is Dean, but such is the power of the Ackles) but he just grew on me in leaps and bounds during the season finale. I was really proud of him. He gave up a ton to side with Dean.

Oh, awesome :D This needed to be written.

[a_decembrist]

Yeah, I figured if John was going to make Dean feel bad then the demon needed to make John feel bad too. It's only fair. :)

Powerful, thank you!

Well, thank you for reading. :)
