Lol, it's funny you say that, because as far as ideas go, that is often what I think about myself, too! XD A few years back, I had this group of friends who could write just like, the most amazing, far out, dazzling ideas-fic (all Cas!girls). And I just thought that was the coolest thing, because I'm often not much of an ideas person; I'm a 'these characters sitting in a room failing to sleep, having inarticulate conversations and being vaguely emotionally damaged/unhinged' kind of person. Which, I mean, I love that. I love that kind of thing possibly even more than I love great ideas fic. But it's not dazzling at all, and often isn't terribly pleasant. And it's just not SHINY and EXCITING and COOL like ideas fic is. So I've always thought that it would be really cool to be an ideas fic kind of person, though ultimately I don't really think I am. I play in the sandbox from time to time, though. XP


And awww, little Sammy. <333 Much love for him. I love the understated attitude Sam's got building in him, as he's watching his family get bogged down in ridiculousness he's already parsed out, but can't get anyone to pay attention to. He's correct, but also a little self-righteous, but also very loving.
