Title: i have been in arkansas
Details: SPN, gen, ~2,900 words. Dean and Castiel both owe the swear jar quarters, but there are no other warnings. Sort of a coda to 5x08, "Changing Channels."
Summary: I am an airplane tumbling wing over wing/ Tried to listen to my instruments/ They don't say anything. -- The Mountain Goats, "Matthew 25:21."

Great story! :) Favorite line - "I'm beginning to understand your sense of humor," he informs Dean. "I think this is a bad sign." LOL!

[fiercelydreamed]

Thanks for reading, and for letting me know you liked that line. I'm in constant danger of including jokes because I think they're funny when no one else is likely to, so independent confirmation is helpful.

This was gorgeous! I absolutely adored it.

[fiercelydreamed]

Thank you so much. :)

Oh, there was so much quiet sadness in this, and it was so beautifully done.

Thanks for reading, and for taking the time to comment.

I wanted to highlight the parts I especially liked and realized that would be nearly the whole piece...

Your writing crackles with unexpected imagery--there is a sensuous pleasure in the word pictures you've created. And the conversation itself is so poignant, this topic between Dean and Cas...

This was a terrific read!

[fiercelydreamed]

Thank you so much! Imagery is my favorite tool when I write, to the point where I can easily go overboard, so I'm glad to know that you enjoyed how it was used here.

*loves* Very good stuff in this... You've really got their voices down. :)

Thank you! I have to credit Castiel's voice to a pointer aesc gave me in beta, which more or less boiled down to, "You're overdoing it. He needs to talk more like a soldier."
