YEAH!!!! So awesome to seeing some more tattooed!Dean and his struggles with the whole situation. I loved that scene with the dragon in the beginning and the scene in the end where Dean gives the woman the closure she deserves AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN!! I loved the cleansing ritual (and not because Dean was naked...well, maybe a little bit) and Sam trying to figure everything out, Dean's panic attack and hurt!boys. Loved it :D
The scene at the beginning was a suggestion (and a brilliant one at that) from my trusted beta, Jackfan2. The panic attacks, I wish I could've explored that a bit more but time caught up with me and the posting day almost bit me in the ass *g*
I'm really glad you decided to continue this 'verse. The first part was such a good teaser and this one, delving into it so much more, was even better! I just love the overall idea for this, and both Dean's and Sam's reactions to the tattoo were so perfect. I also really enjoyed them going all crazy hunter on those guys who tried to kill Lapin. Just picturing that scene was hilarious!
I have to admit, though, I'm still kind of wondering how Dean's dreams/hallucinations during his first visit to Lapin were supposed to cleanse him. Great descriptions during that part but man was it harsh! I definitely felt some of Dean's pain then. Overall, I like how you fit this issue right into a damn good casefic. Everything about this was amazing, especially your Sandman. Loved it all!
Hehehehe! I had loads of fun writing that end part. The guys going nuts on strangers but in complete synchrony with each other is one of my favorite things to see :)
The ritual... its was kind of a metaphysical thing that I may have blotched, but the intent was to make Dean face the changes that had been happening to him (both in canon and in this story) and be absolved, in some way, by his mother at the end (the mother here being the center of his soul, the most basic way in which he seems himself).
Thank you so much for your lovely review! You left a smile on my face that lasted for hours!
