Ah, love me some Old West and Doc Holliday is my specialty so I was intrigued to see you put this up. However, a quick glance at the first part revealed Sam in the Doc Holliday role. Sorry but I don't fancy that. I am impressed by your enterprise, though! Well done. :-)
Well, someone had to get the part! You're not a Cas-girl are you??? ;-p
No, seriously, I started with Dean who seemed such an obvious Wyatt, and worked to fit everyone else in around that. I played pretty fast and loose with Doc, I admit, so if he's your great love you're probably making the right call. This certainly turned out more Wyatt Earp than Tombstone in that respect. It also wound up far more Dean's story than DeanandSam's, which was a bit of a surprise.
And fie! on gunslinger. The typo was in that one stupid summary that got cut and pasted ninety places!
(On the plus side... I watched so many westerns while writing that my great love of the genre has been completely reborn, and I feel a vague longing to write straight, non-AU fic...)
LOL! No, I'm not that into Cas either...but he may have made a better Doc. ;-)
To tell the truth, I never liked Wyatt and the more I read about him the less I liked. I'm not saying Doc was a great guy by Wyatt was the consummate chancer. I only like him for sexing it up with Doc. :-D
It's always the way!
Apart from furiously scribbling Doc/Wyatt slash in a notebook in my pre-internet days, my second main fandom was Mag 7 and I also wrote some Alias Smith And Jones. I've always loved westerns even though as a kiddie I just liked the horses. I suppose it's one of those lifelong loves you never really leave.
Btw, if you haven't been to Tombstone, I highly recommend it!
Finding out more about the 'real' Wyatt Earp was one of those Childhood's End moments for me, lo these many years ago, because I'd always really loved him as what I now realise is a fictional character. That fictional character gibed quite well with my Dean Winchester though, in all his self righteous glory and man pain.
My parents used to vanish at weekends and leave me with my grandmother, and we used to watch the late movie on Saturday, and then the matinee on Sunday, and it was often a western. Gunfight at the OK Corral was a seminal moment in my young childhood. I remember doing it for Monday morning show and tell and my teacher pursing her lips
