Fic: Eyes Wide Open 2/2

Mar 11, 2009 12:42

A/N: Please review the notes on part one. They apply even more strongly here. Also, my betas? Are amazing. If you had seen this fic when it was first finished, you would agree :)

CHAPTER TWO

It’s late July and Lincoln is back to normal. People just sort of raise their eyebrows on Redmond Lane, but there’s nothing more to say about that, ( Read more... )

*shakes Bethany's hand* I like how these strong, independent type women gravitate toward Sam. A stranger can see something that's right in front of Dean's nose but due to where his head is right now, he's too blind to see it.

I love how Dean's last line ties in with the lyrics in part one.

You delivered limpness via flashbacks...very cool device!

I do like Bethany. She turned out better than I had anticipated.

Dean is just sort of lost in himself. I don't blame him, but I do want him to see it.

Limpness is everything! It's all I have left...

Wow. In about 20 minutes, I'll be watching tonight's SPN so maybe this will be sort of Kripke'd, but then again, probably not, and this is just so ... SO! It's not often a *fic* can tie me in knots as tightly as Show does, but this one did. In a very good way.

You did such a gorgeous job with Dean's stubborn, (justified) unrelenting hurt, the way humans cling to their wounds of the heart so fiercely they simply can't imagine anything else, the way we would rather hold our unsteady moral high ground rather than admit ... maybe it really is just that simple. Maybe it's just people who love each other more than life hurting too much to know where to fix, or how.

This. Is perfect. And Bethany was a wonderful, tragic, f-ed up vehicle by which to show Dean's reluctant revelation. Well done, lady!

It is a pain when the show throws all our writing off. And yeah, this doesn't fit in canon, but I still wish it did. Sometimes it feels like protracted angst just for the sake of angst.

I'm so glad you liked it :)

That was wonderful!!

I really liked Bethany and the your Sam (much more than canon!Sam to be honest).

Thank you for sharing this!

Well, to me, this is all lurking underneath canon Sam. I don't think the writers have given enough time to let us know him, though.

Thanks!
