THANK YOU!!!

I love this. I love every bit of it. Dean fussing over john was so sweet. He really is like a sheep dog.

Richard Dawson I have always had a thing for. I loved him to bit so YAY.

Bobby and Rufus were wonderful. The whole things was just sweet and funny. I loved how badly they lost on the show. I am sure if it were 100 hunters answered they would have scored big ;).

The name compromise was perfect.

The end was really sweet.

The banner and scene breaks were perfect. Everything blended so well. Thank you both this was just perfect.

Yay, I'm SO GLAD you liked it! Gift fics are nerve-wracking! But as soon as I saw this prompt I knew I had to give it a try. When I was a kid my cousin and I would watch FF and plan which of our family members we would 'allow' to join us onstage :)

(And yes, that was long enough ago to have been the Dawson years)

You're right, they would have totally rocked The Hunter Feud ;)

Lol. And LOL again. Perfect start to the fic exchange!

I love that John's immediate thought is to call Bobby when in trouble. (My actual first thought was Ghostbusters and I wonder if that would have made the list.)

[sylvia_locust]

Thanks so much! I imagine he called Bobby quite a bit before the big falling out. Which does not happen in this wee alternate universe, nope :)

That was wildly entertaining. "Grave desecration!"

[sylvia_locust]

Thanks so much!!

LOL, good story!

[sylvia_locust]

Thank you :D

This was awesome! I love the idea of a notevil!shapeshifter and the act that they got all the wrong answers on the show. Grave desecration! ROFL! And then they ended their trip at Disney!

[sylvia_locust]

Thanks! They've never convinced me on the show that shapeshifters are inherently evil, just because the ones we know about were bad!
