Very nice. I like the warm feel of this, how much Sam loves Dean and wants to make sacrifices for him because of all that Dean's done for him. Thanks for sharing this!

I'm glad that you enjoyed this -- it was fun to write. And I'm really glad that it read as warm. I wanted it to feel like a hug.

I sobbed like an idiot.
this was beautiful, darling, simply beautiful.

waxbean January 11 2009, 01:24:35 UTC

So glad that you enjoyed it!

I'd be sobbing too if I gave up a clean bed...

you are mean and OHMYGODILOVEYOUYOURICONISMADEOFPUREWIN.

*stares in awe and then ROTFLs*

God, poor Sam, sacrificing clean sheets and comfortable beds for the sake of Dean; love the boys!! This was great!

On another note, your icon?? I've seen others like it, and am wondering is that a picture of Jared/Jensen, or Sam/Dean? If the former, from when? Thanks!

So glad you enjoyed this!

re: the icon -- looks like I got it from crystalchain. I think it's supposed to be Sam and Dean rather than J2, but I'm not totally certain. I think of them as Sam and Dean, though.

I think it's Sam and Dean in one of the episodes where Sam has visions and Dean substains him while they go towards the car. I think it's the Simon one, but I'm not sure.

*feels sheepish because she butted in and it's not even able to give a useful answer*

macbyrne January 11 2009, 01:44:17 UTC

Don't be sheepish, you silly thing!! You were absolutely right! With your help, I was able to find the footage; it's from S1x14, Nightmares; the one where Sam starts having the visions, and you were correct, it's when Dean is helping him towards the car. I was kinda hoping it was Jared and Jensen, like after a difficult scene, they were sort of supporting each other?? But this is good too! Thanks again!

So quietly satisfying! Sometimes, in a fandom full of epic self-sacrifice, it's nice to wallow in the small gestures instead...

waxbean January 12 2009, 03:39:06 UTC

Thank you -- I am glad you enjoyed it.

And that? That was awesome.

I'm so freakin' delighted you wrote something so quiet and lovely for me. The flow of it was gorgeous, the dialogue so great, and I loved Sam's POV! It really is a slice of life that shows one of the best parts about them.

Even Marge fit in with the feel of the fic, and the fic totally fits with the feel of the show. I am full of glee.

THANK YOU. I hope someday I can write something as delicious as this for you!

It was wonderful to write this for you! You are one of my favorite authors in this fandom -- it's nice to be in a position to give something back to you.

I'm glad that you enjoyed it.
