Wow. I'm still trying to find the words to truly express what I felt when I finished reading this besides awe. I'm hoping the boys have a happier ending than this, but Dean's pain is just so poignant throughout and with the end, I just want to cry for him. Beautiful.

Thank you so much! I'm hoping the boys have a happier ending then this, too. It wouldn't be fair would it? But I'm so glad you could enjoy my story! So thank you again :)

It's okay! I was assuming you were busy with RL and I can completely understand. I'm just glad you got around to reading it!

First off, I am so relieved that you enjoyed this story. I was worried about it, that it wasn't going to follow your request and all that, but yay! Relief.

You've got such a way with words.
Thank you so much! :D I love hearing that, I do.

I'm so glad that the interaction between Dean and Cartwright worked for you. I had so much fun writing them in their conversations, but I didn't know if it was just my own personal enjoyment that was winning over or if it was actually going to work.

when we get Dean at his rawest, his pain and turmoil really just jumps up and bites you.This is so very true. We only get glimpses of Dean at his worst moments and how he really reacts and it's hard to relate to who Dean is most of the time. I'm so glad I could capture that! I always wish we could see more of Dean like that because that's when I love Dean most, so I'm glad that I could do that justice ( ... )

Oh, Deeeean. Not many fics really get into Dean's head in the way that I myself see him, but you've managed it with this fic. I loved it the first time, and I love it still. This is just amazing and heartbreaking and such a beautiful, tragic portrait of Dean's character and how it could all end - dismal and aching - for all of them. It's lovely. ♥

I torture this poor boy so much, Idek. I'm really glad that my venture into Dean's head worked for people, because otherwise I would just look pretentious. Thank you so much, bby, for all the hand-holding and the lovely comment and, yeah, just everything ever ♥
