agd888 chapter 1 . 8/5/2014 great story, |
Fbhn chapter 1 . 6/11/2014 SAM & DEAN ARE BROTHERS! You're disgusting. |
McRai thePrinx chapter 1 . 10/29/2013 HOLY. FRAG. What the Pit did I just read. ...I loved it, even if I don't like this pairing WHATSOEVER. |
PsychoPicasso chapter 1 . 1/19/2013 That was WONDERFUL! I had such a good time reading it, I was literally on the edge of my seat, breath stuck in my throat when they were fighting the Graboids. The ending was a perfect mix of sad, love, and hapiness that filled my heart with so much emotion, I thought it was going to explode. Great Job, I can't wait to read more from you. Have Good Weeks, PsychoPicasso |
seghen chapter 1 . 1/11/2013 I never even considered combining Tremors and Supernatural but wow, it made a great story! Good job :) |
frostygossamer chapter 1 . 2/19/2012 Perfection. That's what this story is. Tremors is one of those great movies I always have to watch every time it's on TV. You've dovetail it wonderfully into the SPN world. The Gummers as hunters makes so much sense. All the characters are so right, without distorting any to fit. Your style is so vivid, and the emotional details so subtle and yet so real. I was expecting more of the black humour that's in both originals, but it surprised me how I didn't miss it. Although I did chuckle at Mindy's line: "Only interested in the snake monsters, I shoulda known". Bit of a typical SPN mistaken-for-gay comment on her part maybe? You got me a little worried about Earl. He was my favourite character in the movie so I'm relieved he survived. And you made his feelings for Val exactly how I'd imagined they would have been. I loved the way you depicted the brothers mutual feelings, echoed in Burt's love for Heather and a little in Earl's regret about Val, and not just slash for slash's sake. Nicely done. And I loved the ending. So sad for Heather and Burt but with a strange hopeful strength. I couldn't put this down. I never normally think about checking under crossovers. I'm glad I did this time. |
FightTheOrange77 chapter 1 . 11/10/2011 Oh, Candle Beck... you are so, so, so, very impressive. i love all your stories, especially the Supernatural bits. Your characterizations of Sam and Dean are probably the best on this site. I want to briefly compliment you on your writing style. Its descriptive enough that i can visualize everything in my head. It also flows beautifully. Basically, your writing is like art. It's deep, meaningful, and analytical. Finding an online author like you is very hard to find. You're a friggan gem, dude! One more thing before i begin to throw out my criticisms, (i hope that is ok) The action sequences were phenomenal. You need to write more stories with monsters being blown to bits. Please write a Supernatural story with zombies, and not the slow zombies, BUT the cool and fast mutated ones! I would literally love you forever! Oh, but where was I...yes, my criticisms. First, can I just say that Dean would never lend any random person he only just met his car. I know that's a petty criticism, but it bothered me. Dean would kill for the impala. Its just so not like him to just let a person, who isn't Sam or Bobby, take it. Dean would have went with her. But that's not really important. Let me get to the real stuff. Alright, I don't necessarily agree with how you portrayed Sam and Dean's relationship at the end of the story. In my opinion it was wrong. While I'm not a real fan of Wincest,(I just like the brotherhood) I do understand why people write about it, and how it could possibly, (no one should get their hopes up) manifest into canon. Sam is the love of Dean's life and vice versa, but their love is pure. There love would never turn to anything sexual. Could mistakes happen along the way that would cause them to be intimate sexually..I'll bet my bottom dollar on it, because Sam and Dean are human, and humans are... well, humans. Love can be twisted and confusing especially if you live in a fucked up world like the Winchester's. But the point I'm trying to make is that instead of ending the story with them accepting that they have this whole new side to their love, it would have been better for them to be off balance and not accepting of their actions. Their first encounter in the bathroom, with Sam fixing dean's arm was brilliant. Their reactions, after they realized what they had done, were perfect. And from that point I think you should have went in a different direction with how their relationship was going to pan out. In the story Sam claimed to have never thought of Dean in a sexual way, prior to what happened in the bathroom. Unless he was lying, and if he was you did not make that clear, I don't think Sam would have pushed to see if he and Dean could make something more of their relationship, especially if it hadn't been something that he was struggling with his whole life. Dean, on the other end, being suddenly fondled by his brother, would have been totally mind fucked. Dean is never good at figuring out his emotions. You made him talk about what happened so easily, and that id where i think your story's weakness is. Where Dean is now in the Tv series, it's conceivable to see him owning up to what happened and talking to Sam, but your story takes place years before the angels and the apocalypse appear, so i don't think it works. Incest, is a very screwy topic, especially if it's between two brothers. The Winchesters canonically like women and for them to face the idea of being gay and attracted to their sibling would mess them up so much. Especially Dean. (let's not forget that their dad recently just died.) Do you see where I'm coming from, Dean would have beat the shit out of Sam, been completely off his game the second time the tremors attacked, and would be silent about the incident for months, before even considering having his brother explain why he did what he did. Something as big ass fooling around with your brother is not an issue that would be solved in a span of two days or four months even. Don't get me wrong, I do love the ending of the story, but prior to the ending i would have not solved the bathroom incident, and i would have not allowed them to fool around a second time. I just don't think it would have happened that way. A foreshadowing that things were going to be messed up but could possibly end with them in a relationship would have been better. Remember, this is just my opinion. I would love to hear what you would have to say, and why you wrote the story the way you did. Anyway, great job. I really do love this story, and tremors is a sweet movie as well. Please consider writing that fic about the mutant zombies. I would freak the freak out! peace, love, and happiness! |
MeAzrael chapter 1 . 9/14/2011 You know what? I'm really grateful for the strange kind of mood I was in when I picked your story, cause I neither realised it's a slash fic (which I usually don't do) nor did I think too much about the mutant snakes – I simply liked your style from the very first line till the last one - and in between it dawned on me that the mutant snakes are the rocket worms (that's what they were called in Germany when I first watched that really funny movie) but I was so enthralled by your story that I cheered and when I came to the slash part I was stunned and thought 'WTF' - but hey, this was simply awesome! The way you guided the boys and the story to that ... err, awakening ... I simply loved it. And boy was it hot when it came to the inevitable new chapter in their relationship. Hm, I'm still not converted to slash, but if a story is as brilliant as yours I don't care. I can't count the many many scenes and lines I totally loved. Your a great writer - hope to find another jewel in your box. Thanks a lot for sharing - and many more reviews, you deserve them. xx Kate |
Rose chapter 1 . 8/5/2011 I love your writing. Whether the slash or gen parts, you really are an amazing writer. Can't wait to read more! |
coragyps chapter 1 . 5/22/2011 ... Sorry, hit the button too soon. Lasy word was supposed to be subtext. Point is I think you've got their chemistry just perfectly so thank you for sharing! |
coragyps chapter 1 . 5/22/2011 This was so good ... I've never even seen Tremors, although I know the basic premise, but it's perfectly compatible with SPN and anyway I really just like reading your Sam and Dean. I love that Sam is usually the instigator even though there's some strong top!Dean |
Luke's Momma chapter 1 . 4/27/2011 Sweet merciful heavens, that was freaking amazing! I never in a million years dreamed I would be a fan of any slash fics let alone one about brothers but after watching and I mean really watching the series I couldn't fail to become hooked. There is something so sexy and sexual about the brothers - the way they look at one another, the touches and the unmistakeable love they share that it's just right. Mostly. I've tried some fics and there's just nothing there. No storyline. No characterisation just porn. This story HAS a story, you've totally nailed Dean and Sam's character and you've taken the time to build on the sex not just have them jump one anothers bones. I can't begin to tell you how impressed I am with T.E.C.A. and I hope to find time to read more of your work. Thank you for sharing your extraordinary talent. |
Guest chapter 1 . 4/14/2011 please please write more sherlock holmes 2009 movie verse k thanks bye |
Graceful Crisis chapter 1 . 4/12/2011 Okay, so I just got into the whole wincest fanbase by chance. I usually slash anything that moves, but your stories single handedly made me believe that they would be a realistic scenario. I mean. They're always spot on in character in every single one of your fics. I have yet to find one other author who accomplishes that. And even better yet you write the general plot (apart from the hooking up) so skillfully that it could be an actual manuscript for the show. I'm amazed at the monsters, side characters and scenery you manifest like a fucking pro. I'm subscribing you 3 Best regards |
MissPoke chapter 1 . 2/26/2011 There's something really honest and real about the way you write, and I love it. I'm working through your stories, and I'm favourite-ing most of them, even the ones with unhappy endings, which is really saying something for your ability as an author, because I like angst, but hate unhappy endings. While I'm thinking about it, there's this one story, Gone Again, and I was wondering if there's a sequel I missed or something, 'cuz like I said, I'm a sucker for a happy ending. That one just feels a little unfinished with them going their seperate ways. Then again, it's your story, and you can do whatever the hell you want with it, so ignore me if I sound like I'm nagging. |
