omg! I saw this just before I had to go out, and, shit, here I finally am, and -
Argh! *flail* Squuuuueee! loves you!
You wrote werewolf fic! *hearts you to pieces!* I. *fangirls madly* How can I encompass just how much this rocks? And it's kinda-sorta-almost my fault. Yes! Are you in need of one spare fangirl? Only slightly used, good for all those odd jobs, and hard to reach places (o_0 ok, not intended as dodgily as that may have sounded... *laughs*).
Ok, on the re-read: I love the wee foreshadowing involved in referring to the 'shudder-growl' of the Impala, how he had to 'paw the lid' and his stomach as a 'beast' and 'protecting it's fucking nest'. I think my favourite is just in the first sentence though, writhing, teeth clenched, spine jerking - classic werewolf transformation imagery. *geeks heartily*
Oh, and despite the fact that it's from Dean's POV, that you can actually pick up that uh. Sam's *lying* to you Dean, something you might pick up if you were a little less dopey at the moment. o_0 The interaction over the research assistant-ing, is perfect, in character Sam & Dean, and just that little spot of 'normality' makes the what is to come so much harder, because you never take away from their characterisation, make them anything other than believably them. Really good.
And really, oh my god, do you get some kind of geeky thrill out of throwing little foreshadowing elements in? Because if you do, I *luff* you. Very much. I mean. Ketchup smear around the mouth. Standard horror movie "it's not blood yet, but you know it *will* be..." - watch me flail! Eeee! *spins round in circles*
On the first read through I *didn't* get what Sam was burying. But, oh. And to see Dean getting it. 5, 4, 3, 2 - Ow.
Also on the re-read, I'm left wondering - what would have happened if Dean had known he was infected? I can't see him accepting it, I can't see him endangering Sam, I'm wondering if he *would* have been able to live with it, and if that was Sam's reasoning behind doing what he did. That Dean wouldn't be able to live with this unless Sam was living with him too, unless he had Sam to protect. It's... very bittersweet, that given the ultimate choice, Sam would do this for Dean, for them, but bitter that it has to come up. He’s had a whole month *shivers* Yeah, I think Sam considered all the angles before going with this.
