Some Answers From The Author

It occurred to me that I was being a bit rude not answering some of the questions and comments from The Denizens of the Jimiverse at the end of 'Prince Charming', and PMs have been extremely buggy for a couple of weeks now, so, please find following a few answers from what passes for The Author's mind (be warned, I'm tired and haven't had enough cups of tea today)... WARNING: I'm making this up as I go along, but that seems to be an approach that works so far.

Ronnie bit Dean's tongue - is he a werewolf now?

I think I specified earlier, nope - it was just a little nip with her human teeth, so Dean has not been werewolfed. If she'd used her wolf teeth, he'd have these two really neat and interesting piercings. But he's not. Except maybe his tongue. Maybe every full moon, his tongue gets hairy. I'm sure Bobby can fix it, though.

So, who was taller in the last scene, Ronnie or Sam?

As Official Designated Referee, Bobby was on the verge of calling a no-contest, because they wouldn't stop laughing and they both kept trying to cheat. In the end, his Informed Judge's Opinion was that they were both the same height, but if he had to call it on pain of death, Sam was a bee's dick taller. (Ronnie would later claim that this was because of his hair, so it didn't count). However, Ronnie easily won in the Who Can Pick Up The Other One By The Scruff Of The Neck Like A Naughty Puppy round, so apparently height isn't everything.

A number of years later, Sam would, with the co-operation of Ronnie and her pair-bonded mate, write what came to be regarded as the definitive work on Old North werewolves, including a surprisingly frank chapter on their sexual and breeding behaviour. That was naturally the first bit that Dean wanted to read, but he was severely disappointed to find that it was written in such clinical academic language that there was nothing at all titillating about it. He was so annoyed that he found a fan fiction site of questionable taste and wrote his own werewolf porn story, which resulted in ImpalaDude's account being cancelled, but not until after someone called K9 left a review suggesting that he clearly had more experience fantasising about it than actually doing it, while another reviewer calling himself BadPuppy simply commented "Pal, you don't know the half of it *G*".

During an unexpected reunion with Ronnie and her mate on the way to a Hunt, it was pointed out to Dean that he was the only one of the three who had not had sex with a werewolf. Sam and Ronnie's mate hinted at A Thing that female werewolves do in the bedroom ("Beyond amazing. Beyond mind-blowing. I slept for twelve hours straight afterwards. It's like having your brain sucked out through your dick"), but refused to give details, which led to Dean pestering them because he wasn't game to ask Ronnie about it.

Are they still married?

No, they never were. Ronnie was right; to get married, you need to register the marriage (which costs money) and have a Certificate of Marriage issued (which costs money). You don't need a ceremony at all, but the vast majority of people want one. So they are definitely not married in the sight of the State, although they might be in the sight of God, since they were married by a minister in a church ceremony. (In fact, some forty years later, it did cause a bit of a mix-up in Admin & Archives when Ronnie arrived in Heaven, and started threatening to tear angels' wings off if they didn't fix the slight administrative hitch with her own personal Heaven. "This is NOT my husband, you feathered moron! Come on, I KNOW he's here, he arrived several years ago, about this tall, grey pony tail that made him look like an ageing pimp, God I wished he'd cut it off, he's a frigging werewolf, for Christ's sake! What? No, I didn't bring the bloody receipt with me! I'm DEAD! Fuck, I want to talk to your superior. Who's your superior? Vaneriel. Makes sense, sounds like a good name for a total dick. Tell him that if I don't have Andrew here before I finish this beer, I'll slit his face and wet his bed and wrap his nostrils round his head, right? Good. Do NOT make me go looking for Castiel on this. And get this smirking Winchester the fuck out of my Heaven!")

Is Dean going to be allowed in on the Big Hairy Secret?

Dean found out eventually. It was an unplanned revelation, during a Hunt. Ronnie appeared and faced down a recently turned Alpha male wolf, and lured him away. Dean wanted to follow and gank the two of them, but Sam recognised her scar and tattoos, then Ronnie reverted to human, and stared him down. (Dean stuttered something like, "Er, you do realised that you're just standin' there, naked," to which Ronnie replied with a smile that showed far too many teeth, "Dean Winchester, I am NEVER naked - right now, I am merely nude.")

Have you considered that writing more Gratuitous Sam Nudity might make you a better writer?

Whilst I recognise that some of the laydeez (and possibly some of the boyz as well, if that's your thang) amongst The Denizens are Samgirls, Dean just seems to be the one with a propensity to get his kit orf (one word for you: "Pudding!"). Should the Fanfic Inspiration Fairy pay a visit any time soon, I shall endeavour to write some G.S.N. in somehow, but I cannot make any promises. If anyone comes up with an irresistably silly prompt, I might try. Better yet, go and write your OWN fanfic, with as much G.S.N. as you like! Then we'll come over and read it, and complain that it didn't go for long enough, or the light was too dim, or he still had his socks on so that didn't count please write another chapter and update soon.

Write more about the Gargoyles from the end of 'Can You Dig It?' !

I will, all I need is a visit from the Update Inspiration Fairy. They have to arrive and introduce themselves to Rumsfeld and Janis, obviously. Then presumably we find out about Tiem's dreadful dietary habits, and Zan's refusal to clean the lichen off his head. We're in trouble if gargoyles have prank wars.
