Mar. 12th, 2010 11:58 amI'm about to take my first step on this long journey, Ten Thousand Miles, last year's Big Bang by
mimblexwimble.
I've put it off long enough. Each time I clicked on that fic I backed off when I reached this line - It’s 3:19 AM and the last time Dean ever sees Sam.
It's not that I don't do sad. Some of my favourite fics ever are actually death fics that made me bawl like a baby - When It's Over by
wynter_rebel, We Were Twenty by
elohvee, White Ladder by
tru_faith_lost, to name a few.
But that line up there is just so depressing, even more so than
elohvee's It's sunny the day he buries his brother.
Maybe because that line implies that Dean will never ever find out what happens to his brother? I don't know, but no matter how many glowing recs that fic received, I had never managed to get past that line.
But today, I'm determined to read that story. And if the fic is as good as all the recs said, then I'll probably going to be this sobbing mess by the end of it.
ETA : Yes, I am a sobbing wreck now. Flawless writing, 10/10, but the jury's still out on the story per se because I'm an absolute mess now. One thing's for sure though, I will not forget this story for a long, long time.
