Pairing: Sam/Dean
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 23,500

Summary: Dean is inspired by the possibility of getting a do-over from the events in 10.12 “About A Boy.” Time travel to the not-too-distant past. A Cas-powered trip to Venice, Italy. Ambiguous Powers Sam.

Author’s Notes: Not my characters, only my words. Written for
spn_j2_bigbang 2015, thank you to the wonderful
wendy who's kept us all writing and arting together all these years. Title and opening lyric quote from a song titled “Lion’s Mane,” by Iron & Wine, which you should absolutely listen to. Great thanks and choruses of adulation go to my splendid beta,
amypond45 for her efforts in helping corral my love of excess commas. Please go check out the wonderful art that
uh_tiramisu created to accompany the story.

Oh man, i really didn't think I was going to get there. But I pushed myself to write the last little bit that had been hanging there undone for several weeks (ahem) and turned in my
spn_j2_bigbang last night!
So now I can turn my writing attention to finishing the
spn_meanttobe story that I've gotten to the halfway point.
And I won't have to waste any time re-watching the episode from last night. Didn't hate it, just kinda meh.
Actually, I want to ask a few questions about the episode and see what y'all think:( Very spoiler-y questions: )

Feb. 11th, 2015 10:33 pmThis is kind of an episode review/reaction post, I guess.
I was posting a lot over on my tumblr today, reblogging all the great gifs people were making from last night's fun episode and writing a whole lot of stuff in the tags. So I decided to combine all of that thinky stuff together in one place (hopefully somewhat coherently) where I can remember it. Things kinda get lost in all the pretty on tumblr.( Read more... )
