Really, no need to apologize that this is not your best work. The details all added up to something poignant and brought all kinds of emotions to the fore. And the ending -- sigh!

[ratherastory]

Oh, thank you so much! :)

I don't think it's bad by any stretch of the imagination. It's just... not the best thing I've ever written.

I'm really glad you liked it! I miss seeing Sammy's smile...

Sometimes you forget just how little these guys carry with them. Sam's looking for his Dad and passing around a photo more than a decade old, for heaven's sake.

Two duffel bags, two backpacks, and whatever else can fit in the trunk of the Impala.

I find it heart-wrenching that they can clear out of anywhere in ten minutes without leaving a trace of themselves behind...

Oh Sam ....sigh m :)

Poor angsty puppy. ;)

Oooooh, this is very good, such a nice insight. (I often wonder how Sam even had that picture of his parents framed in his and Jess's apartment, and I'm positive she discovered it tucked away somewhere and insisted on putting it up. Still, how did he have it?)

And I love the last moment, and the little fanon theory that Dean insists they take pictures. It warms my heart and I very well may adopt it.

I want to know how he had it too! I bet there's a story there... *hint hint*

So glad you liked it!

[lavinialavender]

Heheh. I actually do have that fairly planned out enough to include in a scene...but God knows when I'll finish my Sam/Jess fics. ::tries to headdesk, is too buried under WIPs to find said desk::

*cheers you on*

I can picture Dean with his goofy grin taking the picture. Awesome.

[ratherastory]

Aww, thanks!

I miss goofy Season 1 Dean. :)
