I don't have enough words to express how incredible this story is. 65,000 words and I still don't have enough of it. It's so awesome that I suspect even 200K wouldn't be enough. I'm hooked, transfixed and riveted to my monitor screen - crying, laughing, smiling - and now I can't wait to read it all over again!
Summary : Jensen is a special child with special abilities. So special that no one's really comfortable with him, not even his family. He has no friends and he spends his days alone. Until Jared comes along that is. Jared, the only one who's able to get through to Jensen, but even Jared doesn't know the extent of Jensen's abilities, and to what terrible extent Jensen's family is capable of doing to keep Jensen safe.
It’s not like he doesn’t try to fit in and make friends, he really does. It just seems like nothing he does is good enough for them. If he smiles they blink. If he speaks they stare. And whenever they see him coming they get this panicked look in their eyes like they want to run away and they don’t even know why.
Jensen knows why. It’s the same thing that makes his dad worry and his mom cry. That makes Nana tell his parents he’s going to Hell, not even caring that he can hear her.
It’s what makes him ‘weird’.
Oh God, don't miss this.

But omg, I felt like I've been ran over by a truck or something. And Jensen made me think of Sam and Ava and Carrie rolled into one.
And the banner killed me dead it's so gorgoeus!! You know I spend the whole day with that fic *sighs*
no subject
Jensen made me think about my daughter, which, y'know, just about kills me.
It makes me feel it pays off to write something and edit it and polish some more for half a year (I think she mentions that's how long she's been working on it), to have that effect. I might want to try that approach now, omg. But I don't know if I'd have the patience without the feedback.
Do you know something about that novel that inspired
no subject
Omg, I can't wait for part 2! I'm thinking that part 2 will start as them being grown up, maybe Jared at 18 and Jensen 22. And I'm thinking that Alan will probably be the one who tells Jared where Jensen is.
no subject
I don't know how old they will be when they meet again, but I have a feeling Jared might be the "tall as a tree" adult at a time. I don't know. I just know I want to read it NOW! I'm more excited about it than new SPN episode. Much, much more. :)

Oh your daughter must be very special indeed ... *hugs you*

At one time I even thought that Jensen might have temporal lobe epilepsy, the way John Travolta's character in the movie Phenomenon had.
She said two days, didn't she?
/is impatient.
no subject
And 3) I was very curious how she was going to explain it. For a while I thought Jensen was an angel, sort of like Anna, only with the extraordinary abilities.
She said two days? Didn't she say one day? Shouldn't we demand it NOW? Okay, I know . . . ;)
no subject
Oh me too, though I hesitated to use that word, because the story itself more than made up for that tiny, tiny hitch. But at this point of time, if Jensen were to be diagnosed with some physical disease ( the way John Travolta's character was diagnosed with TLE ), the "magic" of the story would be somewhat diminished IMHO, so yeah, even though I was initially mildly disappointed with the magical angle, I'm now ALL for it!
Gosh, I can't imagine what it's going to be like when they have their first sex together - an earthquake would happen? :DD

I'm glad you loved the fic so much. I've been lucky enough to see this fantastic story develop along the way, and to see other people feel the way I have for a long time about this story makes me so happy. Felis is brilliant! Just wait for the second part... I can say with complete confidence the wait will have been worth it. I've made more cover art for the second soundtrack and we have more art for the fic too that we hope will add to the richness of the story.
no subject
I can't wait to see more of your art for the second part and I can't wait to find out what happened to Jensen and how Jared's going to find him.
You're awesome!
