I love Sam. Although I wish he would have told her the truth initially, I know why he wouldn't. I think he wanted to know that she'd be okay knowing what happened, knowing Dean.
I thought about that, but one of the things I wanted to be clear on was that Sam didn't know that Glory existed until she called him up. And I imagine that he would want to be absolutely certain about Glory's parentage before he said anything, just in case his intuition is wrong.
What a powerful paragraph. It says so much about her character, her intelligence and her intuition. I love Glory. She's an incredible character.
*blushes* Thank you. There were shades of Winchester in the way she didn't let the news hit her until she was on the phone with Luke. Couldn't break in front of someone she still barely knew. And then there were shades of Harvelle in the way she pulled herself back together almost immediately (a little tip of the hat to the scene in No Exit when Jo allows herself to freak out for just a moment before trying to work out a plan).
You know, this verse was hard for me to read because of my background but I'm so glad you wrote it. Thank you.
You're welcome. To be honest, I wrote this last piece with you in mind, in terms of thinking, 'How can I tell this story and show just how much it would affect these people but still show that they've grown and moved on as much as possible?' Which sounded a lot better in my head than it does written.
