I'm so pleased that I was so many firsts for you, and that you had a good time reading the story, getting so absorbed in it, enough to put everything else off for four days! That's quite a compliment, you know, so thank you.
Yeah, I tried to get the boys right, get their voices right, put them in a position of having no power and being drugged up on meds, but still being Sam and Dean. It's always important to me in fic that I read that the characters are real - maybe not written exactly how I might see them, but solid and real and maybe it changes my mind a little bit about their characters. So thank you for telling me I got it right. : D
As for the djinn, I think I mislead the reader a little bit on that, because the idea occurred to me, that yeah, it could be all a dream, but I figured it would be more fun if it wasn't, and they boys were STUCK BEING IN LOVE! Because that's where they ought to be. So you weren't wrong in feeling that about the djinn, at least for a little bit.
It's a really cool compliment, you realize, to quote me to me...esp the Before I was big, I was little, because that was the line that the whole story came from, one day while making dinner.
The story took me six months to write. I started the first week of January and finished up 63,000 words by May 1st, and then wrote 100,000 or so in June. Edited during the month of July. My house is a disaster, and I'm still digging out!
