:D I'm very glad that you enjoyed this! They really are an interesting pairing and I tried for a unique dynamic here.

And omg, some of the post-dh stories just really :( *wibbles* some of them are so very good and some of them, well, I kindasorta wish I hadn't wasted my time on them.

The rain scene was the ONE scene that I knew I was going to write and include in this because that was part of the request. I'm very glad that you loved that one, especially! BWEE!

*loves*

Oh, I felt that you managed to portray the aftermath of loss so gracefully and in a very moving way. This was wonderful.

Thanks! It always seems to be Dean that I do things to. I love them both so much but I have a much better "Seamus voice" in my head. I find it hard to write from the POV of Dean most of the time because he's so much steadier than I am, personally. I'm much more like Seamus - balls out living, sort of thing.

This piece was harder to write than I'd thought it would be when I first had the idea. I'd wanted a tougher ending, one with loads less softness and happiness in it but everytime i tried to go in that direction, the words stopped and what few i got down rather sucked. So, happy-ish ending all around :D.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this!
