Unless you are all staring agog at "Spider Bites on All Your Lovers"?Which is actually exactly what I am reading right now.
Are you spying on me? Because I can brush my hair.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
OMG, can you see me through my screen??
(I started "Spiders" at work, which was a Mistake, because I skipped cheerfully past the warning, and have only just finished it now.)

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber
And after all, I do think in some wise it's true: Sam is lesser without his brother by his side. That's true of Dean too.
Oh, I definitely agree. I think it's been shown over and over and over again that the two of them are stronger together than they ever are apart (or maybe that's the huge amount of fanfic I've read bleeding into the memory of the episodes I've seen; I'm beginning to lose track).
And I do think that what Sam did to Dean may have been necessary and expedient, but it was deeply, deeply awful (as was Jo's complicitness with it). I also believe that Dean is equally capable of ruthlessly doing whatever he believes is needed to protect Sam, whether or not Sam would want him to do it. So I think that if it were required, Dean would do something similar.
As for Jo and hunting, it's not that I don't think she wasn't capable of doing it, or shouldn't be allowed to do it, at least while they were in Florida. My personal take on it (and yes, I know this is my personal viewpoint), is that once she has a baby reliant upon her she owes it to that child to not be out risking herself chasing ghoulies and ghosties. Much less following her plan of putting the baby in a carseat, Dean on the roof of the car, and herself out in the field.)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
HA!
I didn't even feel comfortable *pimping* it at work.
Actually, nothing about that story makes me feel comfortable. True story: reading through the almost-final version yesterday, and I almost bit through the pad of my thumb at one point. (I was trying to do the thing where I chew on the end of my thumbnail while thinking, but was so absorbed and distracted that I kind of went a little too far down.)
(Hey! Maybe I can blame Spider Bites for the cup of coffee I spilled on myself at work today.)

(PPS, the quick-edit spoilerfont rules--see quick-edit link above posting box!)
(Seriously--if I could only keep one quick-edit, it would be that one. I less than three whitefont, and would be bleeding it everywhere without quick-edit.)

I am still reading Spider Bites and had to pause it while I w&p Buffy because the story is too good and fucking disturbing to go back and forth. Man, it wigs. In a good way.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Arggh. I can't read either Six of One or Spider Bites (migraine=no focus) and I really really want to.

Gah! Finished reading Spider Bites. Then had to try and figure out feedback because "You stomp'ed Dean and you are mean, but this is amazing like whoa." seemed like it needed a translation.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Finished. Amazing. Now I have to read it again and let it simmer a bit before I can say anything coherent about it.
