I'm doing this backwards, reading your series in reverse...so to speak. I read Immutable first and it was beyond wonderful (separate e-mail sent waxing poetic and sqealing with glee - think I sent it under KAnn though instead of my LJ e-mail address, oops!). After reading it I figured that was going to be my all time favorite story of yours because I couldn't imagine anything better. But this series is.
It's not better in terms of the quality of writing because the quality is amazing in both. It's not better in terms of creativity because "Immutable" was awesomely creative and I've read through it twice and will surely revisit it again. It's just that this series is...happy. It's the happy ending with them winning. It's Dean getting his family. Getting his brother and a sister and his nieces and a daughter who is Dean all over again but without the tragedy. It's Sarah getting Dean and loving him for it. I adore your Sarah. I love reading (and occasionally writing) Supernatural angst but probably because there is so much angst just inherent in their roots and their on-going path and the past couple episodes have been so dark that to see them come through on the other side, scarred but whole, more than whole, is what makes this so special.
And the adorable cuteness of it all is of course awesome to behold :) Dean babysitting the kids and Sam and Sarah's reaction to it? Priceless! If I wasn't completely incompetent at photoshop/paintshop type stuff I'd try to do a picture of Dean with the kids draped all over him because that...oh yeah.
