I'm not done yet, but I'm liking it. I had no idea it was going where it has gotten to.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think my only complaint so far was the implicit understanding that Cas was a virgin. I like the way the "John is a bastard" angle is handled. I like the fresh way that Mary is included in the story. I like. Not in love. But, after so many dissatisfying fics of nebulous quality and length and originality, I am quite content.

Because books.
Some of us may want to read it later, though! Spoiler details if you can, please?

meep!
Sorry, Amy!
But I promise that those were only incidental details to the fic.

Why do you have a complaint about Cas' virgin status?

Not about the status of it, just that it was suddenly a known quantity within the fic, taken for granted that of course he is. No "so have you ever?" "No." "okay". Not a huge deal, but it felt like an oversight of givens.

I kinda think that as an amnesiac, you get a reset button. It's like the tree falling in the forest with no one there to hear.

Okay, I get that --but did Dean, at that point, know that Cas was an amnesiac?
I don't think he did. And I don't think the reader did either.

Huh. I thought we did.
Adorable painting of the Js. Though I prefer to think of it as Sam and Dean, because I'd love to see Sam with that smile on his face.
