Sort of disappointed in the political references (Presidents and subtle hint at opinion on them) in the last couple of stories. We get enough of that BS everywhere else. But they have their good brotherly and humorous moments.

I enjoyed this especially the part about taking the weapons out of the Impala.
Ginza chapter 1 . 6/7
I love Sam making Dean go back several times for the weapons! And Dean making sure no one was giving Sam grief over the things he's done, always love some protective Dean. This was wonderful to read, I enjoyed every part. You are right about Jael also, but I guess I've kinda gotten used to things not making sense in this show.

Lovely work as always! The little brotherly moments were perfect and definitely had me laughing a few times.

First off, you're totally right about the crossroads demon. Sam slowly telling Dean about the weapons made me laugh as did the hotdog and then them saying train at the same time haha. This was broken up into a lot of pieces, but all of them worked and fir together while still being interesting in their own little rights. Neat story!

Uhhhh... PRECIOUS! Perfection omg I love it so much. I really want to know more about Jael cause I believe all this. That she dumbed the hunters down. Cause Sammy isn’t dumb, he’d remember Christo, not to mention he has the tattoo.
The little line near the end about how they haven’t told Mary a lot about her past and their own. I really really want to see fics with Mary actually learning about her sons and what they’ve been through. She needs to see that they’re men who’ve been through more than anybody in the world. More than her, more than John, more than any other hunter.
Okay sorry lol that turned into a “I hat Mary” rant.

Okay. I love this fic. It’s soooooo good and all the additional details about Jael are totally headcanon for me now. Amazing fic

Loved these little snippets! Unloading the weapons from the car was great! And the Christo thing was always a major WTF thing for me in that ep. I mean, I get why it would have basically ruined the story, but it's as if the writers of that ep either never knew about it or just blatantly disregarded it. I'm not sure which is worse. It has happen a few too many times over the years.

I always loved the other hunters not only knowing about Sam and Dean but the fact that they had already kind of become legends in their own time. They deserve it for sure, as weird as it might have been for them. Of course stories would have spread. (There were Bobby and Rufus, too. Bobby probably would not have blabbed too much, but who knows if he had another trusted friend who he shared some stories with, and Rufus could easily have been running his mouth over the years, so there are two more possibilities.)

All in all, this was a great piece of insight into some of those moments that the show just never gets a chance to show us.

Ugh, how can I explain how much I like this? It’s the perfect blend of humor and angst with my favorite characters. I like how you examined the show with skills from Hunting 101 (say Christo for a demon).

And the line, “He already had half his heart walking around in the form of Sam, as Sam well knew,” gives me all the feels.

Great job!

Sometimes you just have to not try to make sense of things (like how Cristo just didn't stay 'a thing.')
