My thoughts when I was writing it!

I can totally see this happening, poor Sam, and poor Miracle. I can also imagine Dean jr eating pie with his dad in future years.

Sad but beautiful.

Thank you, I'm glad you like it. It was hard to write, but I think I still need to get some of this stuff out of my system!

So beautifully bittersweet. I'm still living in a world where Dean is alive. I just cannot comprehend (or maybe accept) his death. Nope, nope nope, not gonna do it. On his birthday some people posted pictures of him that listed his birth and death date. That was really jarring to me. Didn't want to see that. So, I was happy when I saw the same picture with just his birth date.

Sam just couldn't deal with someone else's sorrow. This was perfect. After the episode aired I saw some comments from fans asking why they didn't show Sam calling any of the other hunters informing them of Dean's death. I guess they wanted to see Sam talk to others and maybe get support from them. That statement, right there, really speaks volumes as to why we didn't see something. Dealing with his own grief was probably rough enough that he just couldn't deal with anyone elses. I suspect he texted others, or called them later? It would be interesting to read a fic where he informs the others, i.e., Donna, Jody, Eileen, etc. Have you seen any ( ... )

It is really hard to process Dean's death isn't it. Dean Winchester is a character that's affected me on such a fundamental level, it's hard to just think of him as a work of fiction. I know he's died numerous times in the show, but this 'real' death is really hard to deal with.

There are so many scenarios that I've thought or or read about, I think it will take years to really think about them all. One fic someone told me about, which really moved me - was that after washing his body, Sam dressed Dean in the dead guy robe ready for his hunters' funeral, because he was usually so happy when he wore that bloody old thing.

It has been very hard to deal with Dean's death. To the point where I just won't accept it. Dean is just one of those iconic, larger than life type of characters that possesses your heart and soul. The last episode is a wonderful, well-done episode. It is beautifully done and beautifully acted. As one reviewer stated, dean's death scene was a master class in acting. Everything about that scene is just phenomenal and I still tear up thinking about it. I probably always will. It's beautiful to watch, yet so heartbreaking to watch. As much as I do love that episode, it won't be one I'll watch a lot. Just because.

That fic sounds interesting. Dean did love that robe. I'll have to do an inquiry on spn storyfinders for help in finding more fics.
