*basks* This was lovely, a touching mix of sadness and despair and hope and redemption and healing and taking-the-next-step-ness. I think that's why I love a lot of your fics so much, because they're dark and twisty and angsty, but also beautiful and hopeful at the same time. If that makes any sense at all... and did you ever write more in the Ash and his sister 'verse? 'cause weirdly, this reminds me a little of that in a totally random and unable to explain at this time way.
Oh, and I blame you by the way. I'd heard about Dr. Horrible but hadn't gotten around to watching it yet, and then I saw this on my flist and before I could read the fic the universe made me go watch the sing-a-long blog, and I'm glad I watched it before I read this, it made it that much more meaningful and heart-wrenching. It's totally Billy to assume Dean will go after Penny and Penny to fall for Dean, and for him to try to accept that and back off as long as Penny is happy, and it's so Dean to never do such a thing and subtly bring Penny and Billy back together. holy water handgrenades *snerk* Holy handgrenade!!! So yeah. You unwittingly forcing me to watch Dr. Horrible. Thank you. *hugs*
So yeah. You mixed the two universes awesomely. Now I kinda want more SPN/Dr. Horrible fic, and there probably isn't much out there, much less good stuff like yours. *pouts* Now I gotta go to sleep, but first I wanna watch the song when Dr. Evil realizes he can kill Capt. Hammer again.
P.S. I almost died with glee over the irony of Dougie Howser -> Dr. Horrible and Capt. Tightpants -> Captian Hammer. ^_^ Joss is awesome.
