Oh my, this was so wonderful I'm a bit lost for words!!! Having seen the movie, I wondered which direction you were going to take, but I love how captured Jensen slowly becoming self-aware and knowing what he wanted, and I loved that growing connection between Jared and Jensen. Misha was perfectly unsettling, and so was Jensen in places, and that makes the escape ending work so very well.

Thank you so much for writing and sharing this, I thoroughly enjoyed every word!!! Take care :)

Oh thank you so much! This is all so lovely.

The movie definitely goes dark and I was unsure exactly how much I was going to go in that direction. I had hoped that both Misha and Jensen felt a bit off the mark and I'm happy to hear you felt that too! :D

AHAHAHAHAHA I KNOW I KNOW. Glad I could finally get this done! And glad I could use cinema to get it done :D Hope you enjoy!

Oh, this is beautiful! I was a little worried when you mentioned an ambiguous ending on Twitter, but this is the best kind of wide-open ending. I just love the image of Jensen processing everything around him in the forest; such a lovely way to end this story.
