Just found this. happy sad confused and definitely wishing they could have put more back story into the Canon.
Love it! Well done, and thanks for the hard work and love put into this story.

One of the best fanfics I've ever read! Great work! I really really like it. I'm looking forward to fanfics like this. Great job!

I'm kinda disappointed that Dean didn't remember his angel who better be Castiel btw, but great story.

Aww that was such a sweet ending. I love Sam's faith and I think this is exactly what he'd be like as a kid. I wish we got to see more happy moments and hurt/comfort like this in Canon. Thanks for writing!

I’m just going to say it. This is the best thing I’ve ever read in my life. I might have even cried but shhhhh

hey:) I know its been a long time since you posted this story, but I just stumbled upon this now and I just wanted you to know: this is is terrific! I laughed, I cried, it broke my heart into a million little pieces and then mended it again... thank you for posting this beautiful piece of work! 3

*screeches with delight* THIS WAS AN AMAZING RIDE! I LAUGHED, I CRIED, REPEAT! THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS FIC! IT WAS AMAZING TO SEE CAS MEET DEAN SO LONG BEFORE THEY REALLY MET, AND FEELS SO FORMATIVE TO CASTIEL'S LATER CHOICES! I CAN TOTALLY SEE THIS HAVING HAPPENED IN CANON! AGAIN THANKS FOR THIS AMAZING STORY!

Excellent story that gripped me to the end. Thanks Sasha£££

Holy Hannah, this was an amazing story. I don't think I've cried this hard over fiction since the Lion King in second grade (Mufassah! NOOO!) This was absolutely beautiful. Your descriptions were top notch and new. I loved Castiel trying to describe what prayers sound like to angels. And to realize that in this universe, it was actually Cas that initiated Team Free Will without even meaning to. And that goodbye seen when they thought they were going to have to pull the plug on Dean... My feels. In shreds. On the floor. Amazing work! Thank you so much for sharing with us.

Oh God the tears. During this story, I witnessed sadness, happiness, hope, anger, relief, and complete and utter joy. This story was beyond amazing, and you should know that.
You are extremely talented sweetie, I can't imagine the time and effort you put into this. I would love to just come and give you a giant ass hug. (that would be kinda weird, huh..).

This fanfiction is my #1 absolute favourite story, and I doubt that will ever change.

You, you amazing, lovely person, are a miracle. Even if I don't know you, you possess so much talent.

Thank you. Thank you for allowing me to spend these few hours witnessing this extraordinary story. Thank you for giving me an all new perspective on our favourite Winchester family.

Thank you, for being you.

Don't ever what I'm saying, even if I'm a tad late. You can accomplish anything you set your mind to. And I know I might sound absurd for posting such a comment on "just a fanfiction", but this is not just a fanfiction. I see the effort you put into this and any who hates on you is foolish and blind.

I hope you achieve all what you want in the world my friend.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAHAAA IM CRYING SO HARD HOLY SHIT I CANT TAKE THIS FUUUUUUUUCK *CURLS IN A BALL AND CRIES*

That was a roller coaster ride from beginning to end and I loved every second of it!

This made me cry so much. I want to hug everyone I know.

This was well written and just plain gripping. The characters were spot on (seriously, we knew Cas and Tessa from manners alone). I'm so glad I got to read this.

I was crying so bad I seriously couldn't breathe!
I loved this story and I'm still crying, you are such a good writer and I just wanted you to know that this story relay made an impact on me!
Fuck I can't stop crying!

It's great to have Dean back, at least to some extent. I love how John describes him to the Dr., Dean is magnificent! I can see there is going to be heartache and fear ahead for all the Winchesters!
