*happy sighs*

(just that - I want to bask in the peaceful love that this fic exudes and stay there...*G* oh, yeah, and keep making happy noises...*giggles*)

[chellefic]

That's so funny, because this story depressed me when I wrote it. There's this horrible weight of the apocalypse bearing down on them, and Cas is so certain he's going to die.

I'm glad you found it peaceful, though.

((hugs))

[olympia_m]

I know that, but I think it must be nice to be able to face the end with calmness and strenght and not have a panic attack or something....

[chellefic]

That's probably true. I hadn't thought about it that way. Plus, it must be nice knowing you'll go down fighting for something you believe in.

Even though this is kind of bittersweet, I admire Cas's devotion and love for Dean. He's made his choice and he's sticking by it to the end.

[chellefic]

//nods// I like that about Cas, too. He's very loyal. Isn't it Raphael who actually says to him "you used to be so loyal?"

[tfwftw]

all he has is himself, and Cas's life is a gift Dean will refuse.

Cas is certain he'll give it just the same.

What a perfect summation - of Cas and Dean, yes, but of all of them, really.

[chellefic]

Thank you! They're all sort of self-sacrificing, aren't they?

[tfwftw]

I'd say it's genetic, but where would that leave Cas...

[nightrider101]

This was lovely.

There's a heavy feeling to it and such a realistic look at what love causes humans to do.

There's a layer of complexity and beauty while being simplistic.

Hell, I don't even know what I'm trying to say right now, but please know that I loved it.

[chellefic]

Thank you! I'm thrilled you liked it.

It felt heavy to me too when I was writing it.

Dude, you seem to have a talent for defining a story with the little things. Here, again, Sam's brief appearance says so much. This was sad in a peaceful sort of way. You are one of my favorite authors... and I don't say that lightly!

[chellefic]

You are one of my favorite authors... and I don't say that lightly!

Thank you! I'm incredibly flattered to hear that.

It is the little things that make a story work, I think.
