Oh, damn, this was so powerful and so devastating. Your Bobby voice, both internalized and not, was wonderful. The atmosphere you've created here is so oppressive and yet Dean's desperation ignites within it, like flames popping from a dwindling fire.

The concept you've created here is equally impressive, unique and intriguing and I truly am looking forward to more. Thank-you.

Thank you so much! Your comment is lovely; I love the simile.

Dreams have always fascinated me. So exploiting the details about the YED dreams from "Hunted", "Simon Says", and "AHBL-1" is a lot of fun.

Wow, That was amazing! You've done a great job getting into Bobby's head & capturing just how much Dean and Sam are willing to do to save each other. I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter. :)

Sam and Dean's brotherly relationship is just a mine field of lovely angst, isn't it? Makes for juicy stories.

Thanks for leaving your thoughts. :) Missouri's POV is up next.

Wow. I'm -- wow. I'm really looking forward to the rest of this. Wonderful Bobby voice, and I'm so intrigued by the Sam-Dean-Ruby business.

I'm glad that you find the premise interesting. :) I can't wait to finish the last part of this fic! I just need to fine tune my Ruby voice.

Thanks for reading. :)

This is wonderful, very tense, very oppressive, you can taste the desperation in every move as it all comes together.
"I’ve seen all sorts of crazy crawl out of desperate"
such a great line..true enough to get through to Dean, even then!

true enough to get through to Dean

Yeah, Bobby is good for that. :) He throws out those one liners that seem to shake Dean up a bit, strips him down. Besides Sam, who Dean compartmentalizes, I think Bobby is really the only one who can get through Dean's self-built, thick protective layer.

Thank you for leaving your thoughts! It's always so nice to hear people's impressions.

Hi Erin!

I am working on part 2 now that I've finished that last meta (the fiction and nonfiction parts of my brain seem to be mutually exclusive). I'm not sure if I've got Missouri's voice down, but she's sure a lot of fun to write, almost as much fun as Bobby. :)

Thanks so much for the cheerleading (yay!). It's been a while since I've written fanfic, but I thought I could use it to practice my time/no time transitions. Heh. We'll see where this little fic goes...

*many hugs*

I am only too glad to cheerlead for a fic as good as this one, in the hands of a writer as good as you. ;-) I'll be patiently waiting for part 2!
cheers ~

Erin
