Author’s Notes: Not my characters, only my words. Written for
spn-J2-bigbang 2015, thank you to the wonderful
wendy who's kept us all writing and arting together all these years. Title and opening lyric quote from a song titled “Lion’s Mane,” by Iron & Wine, which you should
absolutely listen to. Great thanks and choruses of adulation go to my splendid beta,
amypond45 for her efforts in helping corral my love of excess commas. Please go
check out the wonderful art that
uh-tiramisu created to accompany the story.
