OHMYGOD.
*flail*
*keyboard mash*
That was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL.
Writer's block? Pfft, what block? This...you...this...YES. Okay, this is by far one my favorite Dean/Cas you've written, and the last line absolutely broke me. BROKE ME, WOMAN.
I'm...speechless. Well, obviously not, but holy hell, that was so beautiful and epic and HAWT and so...niawwh. Dean and Cas. xD I just want to pet them, don't you want to pet them?
Okay, I'll stop rambling now, but Jesus Christ woman; you're going to kill me one of these days. =D

*sending you SO MUCH LOVE across the wire*
<33 (:

*turns about twenty shades of red and flails*
This feedback melted me completely. I... you... *hugs you incredibly tightly*

You're way too good to me, and I love it.

NOM. =D
ILU.
I...I have no words. You never fail to amaze, and you provide the smuttiest smut this side of smutdom, while at the same time keeping it lovely and masterful.
I hope that someday I could be half as talented as you.
<3

Awwwwww, lovey... *smishes you tightly*
Thank you so much for the wonderful compliments. There is ever so much love.

Oh my gods, that was beautiful! Really, truly it was, thank you so much for this! :D
I love how you used the prompt, and you managed to hit just about every one of my kinks (even ones I hadn't listed).
And I love that bit of 'personal canon' about an angel's grace, I think I may have to take that on board into my fanon bubble, lol.
Seriously, this was amazing, thank you! I've wanted something based on In Good Faith since I started shipping the boys (sometime around 4x16 when I decided they weren't gonna kill Cas, lol). I just can't say thank you enough times, lol.

If you do wind up using any of the other prompts I'd love to know about it.

*hugs fic and runs off to add to Mems*

(thanks for the PM :D )

You are so very, very welcome.
I can't tell you how happy it makes me that you enjoyed this so much - when I'm writing for people, I get so nervous. If I'd known you'd wanted something based on that song since you started shipping these two, I probably would have imploded under the weight of my own jitters; I'm so glad that I managed to pick a prompt that meant so much to you and do it justice, and I'm also glad I managed to poke at so many of your kink buttons.

I'll absolutely let you know if any of the other prompts end up being used.

(you're welcome for the PM, too - I knew a lot of people weren't checking the community at that point, and I wanted to make sure you got your fic soon after it was posted)

*gleefully flails about* It's 5.04 fix-it fic! And wings! And awesomeness! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

This was terrific to wake up to! Beautiful, hot, and perfect! And your personal canon about grace makes me very, very happy. *nods lots*

...and randomly, this also makes me grin, because heavenlyxbodies was the first person I ever wrote an exchange fic for, and the fic I wrote her was the first non-AU Dean/Cas fic I ever wrote at all...and therefor, also the first non-AU Supernatural fic I ever wrote. :)

*bounces*
I'm so glad you liked this so much! I tend to be hyper-critical of my work, and this was one of the rare pieces that I actually found myself really, really liking. Everything just came together.
I love writing 5.04 fic, and this right here is my penance; I like keeping balance in my writing. The dark, miserable stuff is so much fun to write, but every now and then everyone needs a happy ending.

I was having Dean moment after Dean moment writing this, going "OHGOD, the feelings! THERE ARE FEELINGS! I DO NOT WRITE FEELINGS, I WRITE PORNZ!"

*grins* That's a great coincidence, there. It's easy to write fic for heavenlyxbodies, her prompts are incredible and she's such a sweetheart.

.......oh, you. I love this, you wonderful, brilliant creature. I know that writing this much plot and emotion scared you, but I'm so glad that you kept going with it because this result is gorgeous. ♥

*nuzzles*
You're pretty much the best biffles a person could possibly hope for, minus the pretty much part. :)
Thank you so much for supporting me, betaing me, and giving me a good smack when I need it.
