Ok,, first off, thank you for writing Gen! I basically read everything under the sun, but i was missing Supernatural so badly that i've been devouring Gen fics and there don't seem to be enough. LOL ( ... )

Thanks for reading, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. I was kind of compelled to write gen. All these Big Bangs this year, and so few of them are gen ( ... )

I don't know where to begin!

First, happy flailing for a good gen fic! That seems to be becoming increasingly rare in this fandom.

Second, it's a pleasure to read something so meticulously crafted. It's clear that you put a lot of work into your plotting and the research and the organization and finally, the prose. It's very readable, in a way I wish more fic was.

Congrats on succeeding at such a huge undertaking - it's clever and unique and I'll be looking for your name on future fic.

I know! It's a little surprising how hard it is to find good gen fics these days, especially casefiles. I'm glad you consider mine one.

Thanks so much for reading, and glad you enjoyed. It was definitely worth the trouble.

This is absolutely wonderful, a great alternative to the canon, extremely well thought out and really spot on with the characters you had voiced. Hendrikson, especially, I feel you had him perfectly, and Sam's head space felt extremely realistic and true to character.

I really enjoyed reading this and know I'll come back to it. Great job, thank you for sharing!

Oh, yay! I love casefic, and this was a really meaty, involved one. I didn't even notice it was gen! (Coming from me, this is significant, you understand. *g*) Inside Sam's head may be a tricky place for you, but you pulled it off brilliantly. Thank you for writing!

I came here via a rec in spngenlove.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this - left my children to the mercies of weekend TV so I could read it in one sitting!
It ticked a lot of boxes for me - I like casefics, and 'what would have happened if a different choice was made' fic, and stories about the brothers which are wincest free....
It was great!
