Yet, still, that's a very, um, intriguing idea.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You are made of awesome!

Although my heart is breaking that I have only read half of it, and now my noncontact time is over and my kids are back. Argh. Will finish it later - it is JUST what I wanted!

It's a tough pairing. She's one of the few authors I can go in overall trusting.

And I just totally dug the way she wrote them.

More Dean/Castiel of this flavor would make me very happy. It's hard to find though. The angel angel really needs a deft hand, for me. And few write it a way I happily lap up.

Well, I think that story just gave me a new OTP. And I've not had an OTP since Smallville Season 1, so that's saying something. But - yeah. Hello, nurse.

Any further links you might have lying around would be received with sheer delight.

When you say it's a tough pairing - you mean it's badly written in general? Or not much written? Or what?

I mean it's hard for me to find stories that believably leave Castiel an angel and Dean a human and deal with them as such.

I'm not feeling it for slutty angels, basically. Because being an angel should mean something. And being human should mean something.

The few stories I've found that charm me recognize this and I will totally share links with you. I just can't see it as a random roll in the no tell motel.

Wordy McWordenstein! The appeal of this dynamic isn't just the hottitude of the two actors - it's the whole shebang. I need to watch more SPN Season 4 - alas, my DVDs are pretty damn crappy. However, I shall persist, because my newfound obsession needs feeding.
