“I remember.” Surely two of the most beautiful words to Dean’s ears. I really enjoy fics that interweave an alternative bts take with the actual show timeline and events. A healthy dose of Dean angst is like a cherry on top. I especially appreciated how Sam seemed to develop the aspects of having a soul, by pure will, the closer he and Dean became. I secretly wondered if he wasn’t just absorbing a portion from his soulmate. ::sighs:: This was lovely. Thank you!
