Just awesome amounts of happy flailing from me at the moment. I really, really enjoyed this! You painted a very bleak and vivid environment, one I could easily picture as being the true purgatory. Also liked the idea that purgatory takes the monster, and perverts it further. I particularly liked seeing the dragon in there in it's true form.

I think the flow was relatively good, and seeing it from Cas's POV was interesting. Honestly, the best purgatory fic I've read to date. Well done!!

Yeah, this fic was in large part me taking all of the things that I wish could be in Purgatory on the show and then writing it down. I wanted to include stuff that I knew we weren't going to see on the show due to budget constraints and just roll with it. And the whole idea of all of the monsters having these nasty true forms was something I really enjoyed playing with.

I am totally overwhelmed that you'd say it was the best purgatory fic you've read. Thank you so much!!

Oh no, don't die! I'm glad that you enjoyed it, though. ♥

You have no idea how proud I am of you for committing to this, going through, and finishing -- especially in such a short span of time. I have a lot of admiration for the work and discipline you put into this, and now YOU are one of the longfic authors whose work I can only hope to aspire to with my own! ♥

You know how much I love our Supernaturalbabies, and I'm so happy with what you did with them here. You've pretty much already heard all of my comments in person, but as you know, I love the slow development of their relationship and how it all culminates at the end, and that Red Sea ending is pretty much perfect. I'm sorry I was so hard on you through the whole editing process, but I'm sure you know it's just because I wanted to help you make this fic as awesome as possible, and I'm sure you can tell from the comments here that it definitely is. <3333

CONGRATS AGAIN AND GOOD WORK! :D

[burningvigor]

I still owe it to you for even putting the idea in my head! And I really do appreciate everything you did to help, from fielding my ideas to inspiring me with things to going through that editing process. I certainly benefited from the harsh comments and that's the sort of stuff a writer needs to hear to improve, so I'm very grateful for it!

Someday you can come back to read it and enjoy it as a fic on its own rather than something you have to help me rework, haha. 8D

And of course, I will be there to help you through your longfic so that this situation can be reversed before long! \o/ THANKS SO MUCH, AGAIN.

Nicely done. I liked that you told it from Cas' POV and how he struggles with understanding both himself and his relationship with Dean. Loved the monster parade too- esp Madison- that was especially bittersweet. And aww, Cas gets a hug from Sam. Sorely needed! :)

[burningvigor]

Thank you for the kind words! I definitely wanted to make sure that Cas finally got his Sam hug. ♥ And it was fun to think of which monsters to throw at them!

Thank you so much for reading!
