This is so gritty, and harsh, and just very good.
If you think about Sprite too long, he may actually derail your brains.
Kudos.

Thank you so much! For pointing out the html mess as well :)

I loved this! Just the right touch. You didn't go overboard with explanations and descriptions. It flowed beautifully.

[judith_88_g]

That's an awful nice thing to say. Thanks a lot for reading!

Lovely descriptive writing :)

This was beautiful! Melancholy but not overwrought, and I loved the scene of Dean teaching Sam to spit, it's such a little boy thing to do. It all felt very authentic.

[judith_88_g]

I'm so happy you mentioned the spitting scene. I have a soft spot for it myself as it might've been loosely based on my own memory I wanted to write it for some time but couldn't quite find a good place for it.

Thank you so much for reading!

Ha! Well as I was reading that I was thinking, ewww, gross, but it was also strangely touching and definitely realistic! :)

[judith_88_g]

I know, gross! But I swear I don't do it too often anymore and am fairly sure Sam doesn't either. As for Dean, well, I wouldn't really put my money on that.

I really enjoyed this, from the melancholy of Dean remembering Sam, and missing him, to the low key ghost story that felt like a real legend. A ghost who keeps riding trains, on and on forever :). Gorgeous!

I'm so happy you liked the fic. I struggled horribly with Sprite's story, seriously, the guy made my fingers bleed *pokes him in the eye* I'm stoked the final version worked for you.

Thank you so much for reading and leaving such a kind comment.
