Thank you so much for a very kind, and very reassuring, first comment!

This was gorgeous from start to finish. I love how you unravelled the three storylines and the writing itself is just so rich. I adore the insight into Dean and John and the contrast with Sam and Dean. I'd been bemoaning the lack of SPN fic - that our fandom seems to be winding down - and then I find this beautiful gift to begin the New Year with...
thanks!

Aw, thanks so much. And Happy New Year!

Wow.

This hurt. I mean that as a compliment...

And thank you for making John care!

Thank you.

When I started to write this, I imagined the big emotional scene being between Sam and Dean. But, in my head, Dean just can't bring himself to lean that much on Sam.

I think that John has made mistakes, but I think that i_speak_tongue's original fic did a great job of setting out how much he loves Dean.

Oh, man. This is SO GOOD, engaging with gorgeous imagery, and powerful and emotional without ever being over the top. I especially loved Dean's numb horror at seeing his father cry, (I can just picture that) and the bro hug!!! felt so right in a way that everyone can't pull off.

And you fleshed out the original so, so well. This is an awesome remix, and an awesome fic.

Wow. Thanks so much for a really kind comment. I'm glad it worked for you.
