I know completely what you mean about all the angst-overload from the end of the season. And we'll be plunged back into it in September.
But for now, I also like a little breathing space, and heck, I do what the muses tell me. ;^D
This is only my second "pre-fire" fic (most everything I've written is wee!chester of some flavour, but generally on the road with Dad), but everything that comes After is so coloured and shaded by Before that I guess I've reached the point where it's bleeding over. But I like that, because it gives a lot of contrast.
And I think John really was a more indulgent, gentler Dad - we see that in the way he jokes with Dean - so to be able to get to that is something I love doing. Even when it's later and I have to punch through his gruff exterior to get there.
Anyway...I'm meta'ing again. I do that. Thanks for reading!
