JOOOOHHHHHN!!!!

Oh, dude. Just in case you didn't know, horse-John is totally a non-pedigree nag but he's about half-Clydesdale with a good whack of Quarter Horse and god-knows-what. And he's black, with a broad blaze, white whiskers and four stockings.

*beams*

How is it that in a fic about John being reincarnated as a horse, you made me CRY like a big dumb baby?


This is the only goddamn ranch in the county that's been untouched by some seriously evil pack of werewolves, and the locals reckon it's all thanks to this horse. This horse is badass.

and THEN -
John steps forward, brushing Dean to the side and Sam's hands cup automatically around John's nose as he snuffles at them, mouths at Sam's shirt and his hair and ears. There's a long white scar down the side of Sammy's face but he smells clean, calm. There's silver in his hair

So simple, but so much conveyed. All those years, still together, still hunting. Dean instinctively knowing that it'd be okay if he rode the horse.

I'm smiling and crying and laughing and loving the whole damn fic. Oh, and the artwork for 2 was utterly wonderful. I swore softly to myself when I saw it.

Love it, utterly totally completely, AND you made me all sniffly and teary with the last one! Even as I was snickering on John being a mare ;)

The Colt made me all sniffly too. *shakes her finger at you*

They are funny, lovely, and intense all at the same time. Awesome writing.
Thank you!

there were awesome. I can't pick a favorite because each one appealed to me for different reasons. :)

OMG John's a mare! ::whoops with startled laughter::

These are awesome, and I so wish I could read the rest of the story where the boys were horses for 16 years...

The first reminded me, delightfully, of the Infinite Improbability drive in the ship in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Dean with a monkey tail! Dean playing with baby!Sammy! The second and third are just lovely.

These are so gorgeous. In the second, John seeing his children suddenly grown, after being nearly gone for so many years and the image of them all horsey and unsteady on their two feet--both of those things are so well drawn. And the last--awesome! John as a mare who won't take any crap, and then reuniting with the guys. Made me all teary.

Good job on all of these pieces, just a great execution of a clever concept.

Comments, by part ...

Trusty Steed

I love the boys getting into such mischief, and the car turning into a horse. And all three of them riding the horse back to the motel makes for a great image. *g*

Favorite lines:

He holds out his free hand as Sammy kicks and wriggles in the other, buzzing spittle against the collar of John's shirt.

Aww, Sammy drool!

The Colt

Very interesting concept. I love how awkward and wild the boys are after they change back, the way they’re so uncomfortable in the bodies they haven’t worn for so long.

Dad's an Ass

Love John as a horse, and too funny that he’s a girl horse! I think what I liked most, though, is how he can still hunt things/save people, even as a horse.

Favorite lines:

And as for what happened after, well, he didn't care to think too long on that. It was more about where you were than where you were going.

Very practical, so very John.

Finding himself a previously-human soul alone amongst a bunch of animals isn't the most reassuring realisation for the progress of John's own soul through the ranks.

*g*

And sure, he's always maintained his understanding of the language. Not that he's ever let on. Mostly because it's much more goddamn entertaining to be more ornery than obedient.

LOL! Oh, John, you amuse me so.

"Don't listen to him, ya big softy."

*snickers* Aww, look at Dean talking unawares to his daddy.

"Does she look wild to you?" Dean says back, then straightens up, still yanking at John's mane, and digs his heels into John's side. Dean whoops and John's off. Heading toward those hills.

Great ending. Love this image.

I loved the way you described the boys in the stall, and the quiet gentle way John got them to recognize it was him. Matter of fact, I loved the entire fic, from the first part (with Sammy messing with the lamp, and Dean hopping around him) to John being reincarnated as a mare. This was excellent!

Awesome!!!!!

That last one *cracks up at the idea of John being a mare*

I seriously love this. It's so damn odd, yet it fits so well. Fecking awesome! I could see the horses in my mind and that last one makes me all teary for some reason! *mems*
