FIC: That Old Feeling 1/2

[i_speak_tongue]

Lazy post is lazy.

For the h/c meme @ hoodie_time for roque_clasique's prompt: Dean shows up at Stanford during spring break, when Sam's pretty much the only one in his dorms because he's too broke to go anywhere. Dean's sporting a sling that keeps his right arm close to his body, and it doesn't take long for Sam to figure out that the injury is permanent and Dean is

Oh my gosh, you chopped it off! Roque will be so happehhhh.

POOR TRAUMATIZED SQUIRRRREL. I love the way you set the university scene... it reminded me so much of my school. Super-real.

Thank you! And yes, chopped it off, but stuck it back on! I need my squirrel whole. Even if the parts aren't all working quite right.

I read a story in the news recently about a girl who got her arm reattached after she was struck by a train. I googled "re-attached arm", and found a couple of examples of adults who'd had theirs put back on and regained some sensation and strengh. No cases of anyone getting 100% back to normal, which turned out to be perfect, since Roque wanted a permanent injury anyways. So I figured I had to do it! Lol.

Aaaaagh you CHOPPED HIS ARM OFF! ::weeps:: But at least he went to Sam!

[i_speak_tongue]

I did. And he did. Of course. Thanks for readin'!

OUUUCH.

[i_speak_tongue]

Pretty much!

THANK YOUUUU!

I'm glad the subtle clues worked. That was something I was hoping worked out right, that the way Sam gradually realized something was really wrong, and then found out what came about in a natural and believable way.

I think the fact that's Sam's all alone in the dorm is part of what's great about this prompt. Sam gets to relax a little and not worry about explaining Dean to his friends and all that junk. THey can just be brothers together.... for now.

Awe, and I'm so glad you liked the ending. I was worried it was a little abrupt!
I'm going to be in the airport and on a 7 hour flight back to montreal tomorrow, So I'm hoping to finish this up then!

That was awesome. I don't wanna wait for part two. I wants it NOW. I love this. I love this so so so so so so much. The details of Dean's pain are just... so.... GOOD. My h/c heart, it is ALLLLLLLLLLL aflutter. LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Oh, and the image of his arm falling to the ground. HOLY SHIT. HOOOLLLLLYYYYY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT.

Look how spazzy you've made me. JUST LOOK.
