I... wow. Wow. I really, really loved this fic, especially the narration. I wish I could leave you the feedback you deserve, but um... wow. *adds to memories*

Thanks. ♥ It's the longest thing I've ever written, and I was nervous but I'm glad you like it. ;D

A Dean that's still Dean, but intelligent and ...oh god. I just loved this. LOVED it.

The cyborg convo! I forgot to mention that. Right at that paragraph, that's when I decided I loved this story.

I wrote that part when I was sitting in class and the professor was talking about Donna Haraway's A Cyborg Manifesto. ♥

moveablehistory June 30 2006, 20:33:22 UTC

yay!!

It's my baby, and I'm happy that you're pleased. ♥

Yeah. Wow. :)

I really liked the style of this, the way we saw the story from the narrators POV but still held onto Sam and Dean.

I wish more fics would explore what it would take for Sam and Dean to be able to find some sort of middle ground. I love how you wrote Dean in this - so smart and capable. And the give and take of the dialog/banter was excellent. I think you really nailed their voices and how comfortable (and domestic) they can be around one another.

I want to say something more coherent but I'm just flailing around and not grabbing the right words.

It was wonderful. I'm telling everyone I know to come on over and read. :)

Yay, thanks. :)

I'm glad you like it, and I liked writing them compromising in some way to stay together. And who doesn't love banter and smart!Dean? :)

Thanks for the rec, too. ♥

Oh now, that was *fun*. I love Dean sitting in on the classes and the ghost's pov and...John coming to see what's what.

Good, good stuff. The three of them uneasy in their new lives but doing good - making it work. Really enjoyed this!

Thanks!

I always imagined Dean would be that kid in the back of the class with the running commentary. :)

Oh, I love it when Dean gets to unleash his brain-fu!

And I liked the very different feel of this piece - it was beautifully done.

"unleash his brain-fu!"

Heeee! yes! And I'm glad you like the feel - I was kind of nervous but everything seems to be okay. :)
