Acknowledgements:
There are so many people to thank. First I'd like to thank the mods of spn_j2_bigbang for putting this all together and keeping everything organized.
Next I'd like to thank my alpha and beta, lapillus, who held my hand from the beginning. She was quick to tell me when I needed another scene and always ready to go find some obscure fact when I needed it. This fic would not be the same without her influence.
Thanks to my proofreaders: kris4n6 and margueritem, you guys rocked!
Thank you to cathybites for her amazing art!
For help with my Texas questions, I'd like to thank: wyomingnot, ladyjanelly, txsybil, tejas, taliabriscoe and texanadian.
A big thanks to razorsedge74 for his work on the glossary and being a good sport about answering my questions, even when he doesn't read slash.
An even bigger thanks to my husband, who never complains about the time I spend writing, and even answers the occasional fic-related question.
Lastly, thanks to everyone on my flist for putting up with my random questions, my word count posting, my angsting over finishing and editing, and always being supportive and cool.
This fic is the longest thing I've written so far. It grew from a tiny little concept ("The boys as geeks!") to something epic. You wouldn't believe how much research we ended up putting into it: from checking dates of games and systems ("No, they can't be playing Quake 3, it wasn't out yet!") to looking up music charts and newsreels for 1999.
If you've read this far, thanks for reading! I appreciate you joining me on this journey.
The Soundtrack is much shorter than I'd like, but I ran out of time:) Enjoy! (Images all created by lapillus)
