James Herriot Never Had To Deal With This CrapR for gore and drug use ( ... )

But . . . but appropriate draping, sterile technique, and lavage were performed throughout! :(

I'm glad my characterization pleased. Thanks!

Oh, this was purely PERFECT. Everything was so spot-on, from Amelia's characterization, to her constant mental switchbacks between canine and human anatomy, to the "Alien" references, the Herriot references, the building horror of Sam's situation, of Amelia roping in Dean as a surgical assistant, Sam's "It's a girl!" . . . and your surgical descriptions were glorious. Either your research skills are supernatural, or you MUST be in the field. ;)

Such an awesome, wonderful job of storytelling. Bravo, and thanks for writing and sharing it!

Takes one to know one. ;)

Thank-you so much! I had a ton of fun with this one, and I'm glad you liked the references, too (it was physically impossible to leave them out.)

Holy hell, this was AWESOME! I kept squeeing like a crazy person all the way through that prep and surgery - so intense and real and, somehow, funny. Because X-RAY ARTIFACT! :D I love the characterization, the creepy alien ferret thingie and the surgery scene, damn, I love that one beyond all reason. That was so cool, thank you!

Man, medical verisimilitude is a kink of mine (if I can use the term kink thusly)! And you really delivered!

I haven't been on the hate!Amelia bandwagon, but was reserving judgment a bit. Now, every time I see her (or mention of her), I will think of this, and completely embrace the character!

You are all kinds of awesome!

Way to go Amelia - with her medical know-how!

That was great! Both the guys and Amelia sounded just right. And -- Tock, as in The Phantom Tollbooth? :-)

Oh, I adored this! Amelia trying to categorize things medically so her head wouldn't explode, Dean being helpful, Sammy! having to be awake through it all.

Plus alien!weasel!puppies :D

I'm dying to send it to my friend who's a vet but she's only up to season 6 :)

Thanks for sharing.

That was excellent and I thought the characterisation was spot on.

I'm so glad this got recced by a bunch of people because I probably would have missed it otherwise and it is so, so good.

This was fantastic. There's not much Amelia fic out there because I'm aware that much of fandom doesn't like her, but I happen to be a fan and I love this story. I agree...I want this to be an episode so we can see just how badass Amelia is. :D
