Summary: She's his baby brother's new girlfriend.

He's some stranger who knows more about her boyfriend than she does.

Together they fight crime have sex talk on the phone a lot.

(Oh, and also there's some guy named Sam who keeps getting his ass kicked and has a run-in with some incubi-infected frat guys.)

Notes/Acknowledgments: Betad by [livejournal.com profile] waterofthemoon, [livejournal.com profile] ashley, and [livejournal.com profile] dea_liberty.

I knew exactly what I wanted to do for this year's Big Bang. I wanted to give Sam DID and explore that. Wee!Sam, Stanford, Series, I wanted to do it all. But then I realized this fic wanted to be written in short bursts, because all of Sam's alters wanted to have their say, and I didn't know if I could keep it up for 20k.

Cue panicking when I realized I had no fucking idea what to do.

And somehow I decided on this. I don't remember exactly how, though I think it's safe to say that the people to blame include; [livejournal.com profile] waterofthemoon, [livejournal.com profile] ashley, [livejournal.com profile] unperfectwolf, [livejournal.com profile] gigglingkat and [livejournal.com profile] stephanometra.

So this is my fic, as it came to be. Sort of. The idea went along the lines of this:

Dean randomly realizes one day that Sam probably wouldn't think to tell someone about his deadly allergy to X. Cue freaking out. Dean sends postcards to Jess, telling her things like that and how to keep Sammy alive, well, and relatively happy. They become letters, which become phone calls.

I'd like to thank all my friends, but [livejournal.com profile] waterofthemoon specifically, because she's the only reason I didn't just give up several times.

HI!

So, I've started reading your fic, and so far I really really love it. Well, almost. I feel kinda bad being a bit nit-picky, but because this seems to be such a good fic, I feel that I should share.

OK, so I've got a thing about numbers, and I always start counting when they show up in a fic. And I did the same in your, and I noticed that you made Sam kinda slow when he runs. Well, not slow, slow, but not as fast as he should be. I don't really do miles, but I know km:s. And I've participated in a few 10k runs. And with the speed you've given Sam, he should complete 10k in a little more than 50 min. Now the bad news. This is about the same time that my 55 yo dad runs at. Someone really fast should have a time at 35-40 min (world record at about 30). I think this would put his time for a mile at about 6 min. I think.

I hope that you don't mind my comment, I really DO like the story (Usually doesn't bother pointing out stuff like this if the fic isn't good enough) and now I'm going back to read the rest of it...

Hi :) I just finished reading this and I loved it! And you really wrote it out of order? I found that the story really flowed and made complete sense. I love your Jess. She's weird and unique and I like how this story was written in three different point of views. Though, the two most prominent were Jess and Dean. You had a whole bunch of details and I really like that kind of thing to read. It makes it so much more interesting! Gosh, lol. But the ending was very abrupt; kind of like there's more to the story but suddenly stopped. I hope there'll be more! :( *wibbly lip and teary eyes* I don't think anyone's ever written an AU where Jess joins them. Anyway, great job. :D

Let me tell you something, baby. LMFAO. I discovered spyware on my computer last night, and I've alternated between trying very hard to FIX it, and read your fic, WHICH I'M FUCKING LOVING, but my computer keeps freaking crashing on me, BUT I CANNOT STOP READING YOUR FIC, and I can't print it out, because, hi, virus or something keeps making me crash.

Um. I just wanted to say I'M FREAKING LOVING THIS SO MUCH, SO HARD, SO FAR. I'm on Chapter 5 (after 4 hours, Jesus christing computer), AND I WANTED TO STOP AND SAY I LOVE IT, just in case the computer actually dies forever and I disappear and don't get the chance to say how awesome it is.

Hi, I know this is a long shot but I was wondering if you by any chance have your story in a single file that you'd be willing to email me? amalthia @ gmail.com

thanks for your time

So, your summary is kinda the best thing ever.
I'm going to be crying because there isn't more of this universe out there from now on, aren't I?

I'm saving this for the right moment, but even if I couldn't get back into the show, I am very much looking forward to reading this. =) Congratulations on getting it done!

I'm mid-chapter three and love it so much already. Just needed to say. =) Must admit though, that I love the Dean bits best and have found myself skimming over Jess/Sam bits in the first chapter to get to them. *is ashamed* The further I get though, the more I get into the story. Am off to read on now, hooray! *runs off*

(The description of dean's hangover was pure brilliance).

So I just read this in one go and can I just say awesome?!! Absolutely loved it! It made me laugh out loud more than a few times, blush once and hope there would be more all the time. And then I read there is going to be a whole au based on this! Loooooove!! Friended the verse site immediately. Actually, I'll friend you too if you don't mind just so I don't miss anything. I liked Jess before and you made me like her a whole lot more. So yeah, what I am trying to say here is: thanks for writing such a great story, can't wait for an update on the sequel that's not a sequel.
