This fic will never stop breaking my heart, no matter how many times I read it. Double-suicide is the only way for the Winchester boys to go, in the end. Oh, and I really love the pumpkin/jack-o-lantern metaphor.

And I fully admit that part of this love is they wouldn't have let me do that in undergrad. I'm pretty sure the profs would have given me the look, you know?
I DO INDEED KNOW THE LOOK TO WHICH YOU ARE REFERRING, MADAM.

(Surely it's not because we had the same profs and most of the same classes...)

Thank you, thank you for the wonderful things you say!

And yes, I think that pretty much any prof I had, you were right there next to me (or across the room) to also see the looks. Thank heaven WE didn't get the look as much as others might have. But that might be because we didn't put in silly things like parenthetical flashbacks.

I think I got the idea from "The Shining", and, what can I say, it's wooooonderful.

OH dear... that would have been the reason if any. Also, it would have cut us awfully short so phhhst, we didn't do that. Only we did... I love fanfiction for that.

Totally. I mean, I would have been heartbroken and thrown things (or maybe just stared in confusion) if the show had ACTUALLY ended like this but for the fic...it works and it hurts, and it was lovely to write. And makes me happy to see them alive again, if only in the hope that they will be HAPPY some day. *sigh* Doubtful as that is.

*cry*

This would have made for a very short and disappointing series. :(

Glad it's just an alternative.

Eee! You commented so long ago! And I missed it!

Anyway *huuug* I'm glad it's just an alternative too. :)

This definitely rang true to the Winchester curse and men- a sad ending but one that would make sense if the cards had played out that way.

Definitely. I think part of it is just that Sam doesn't have a reason to hold the family together without Dean. Recently re-watching S2.1, and Dad is completely ungrateful that his son didn't shoot him. *sigh* They are so messed up.

*clings to the bodies of the boys* Those poor, sweet, doomed boys. They never really had a chance, did they? At least they will have each other in Heaven. Bobby won't even have that.

@_@ BOBBY! Oh my gods, Bobby is going to be completely shattered.

I KNOW. They're so screwed. And maybe they'll get another shot? You never know.

Arg, poor Bobby! I hadn't even thought of him (and now that you've made me think of him I'm sad!)

Thanks for reading!
