Author's Notes: Written for this year's spn_reversebang based on a prompt by the supremely talented and lovely soulmatecest, who has been an utter joy to collaborate with and has created such amazing art to accompany this story. The prompt was one that I connected to the second I saw it, without even really understanding why, and all I'm hoping for with this fic is that she thinks I did it even a little bit justice. Here is to more collaboration in the future! GO CHECK OUT THE ART POST NOW!!

Special thank you to ephermeralk, who has acted as my medical advisor and beta on this project, and has been an absolute godsend to me. Anything that sounds even remotely intelligent in here is likely thanks solely to her, and if anything is wrong, blame it totally on my own romance-fueled creative license!

Thank you to my beloved fiercelynormal for the beta, brainstorming, and guidance, my zabuds riyku & cherie_morte and the rest of my girls for the 10 hour writing session, and the gang of amazing mods that run the RBB comm!

So I am finally getting a moment to leave my comment. :)

I was so moved by your work. The agony and emotions jared went through just about gutted me. I was so happy that jensen was there to help him and begin the process of Jared's return of feelings. The most powerful moment for me was when Chad had his night terrors and jared finally made his choice to actively work towards his recovery.

Omg and how can I forget Rosey's anguish. Woman, you srsly tore my heart apart in such a concise fic. I didn't need chapters and tons of back story to know how much Toms death affected Rosey. ( I like calling him this even tho it doesn't seem right for an army man lol ) it really hurt to see all the boys hurt but it made my joy at Jared's recovery that much happier. So yay for your fic. I really really enjoyed it. I wish I could just hug you and maybe keep you in a corner to write me lots of fic! Lol

Thanks for continually sharing your inspiration in this fandom and may j2 always be on your mind! ^_~
