Rating: Blue Cortina, PG-13
Word count: 21,660 words.
Warning/s: Secondary character deaths, some violence, but nothing very graphic in either case. Mild medical detail.
Summary: Sam jumps in 2006 — and wakes up as a 12-year-old boy in a 1950 hospital bed.
Notes: Sam & Gene, gen/friendship, AR but not AU. Angst, timey-wimeyness, amnesia. You know: the usual.

Many thanks to
lozenger8 and
draycevixen for their beta'ing and generous encouragement, and to
severinne for being a shoulder to cry on ♥ Extra-special gratitude to
grassle for editing, proofreading, and Britpicking above and beyond the call of duty. And of course, kisses to
hambelandjemima for organising the very first Big Bang challenge so that we can enjoy all these fantastic fics and artwork. Mwah!
Artwork for this fic was furnished by the lovely
wolviecat; you can see her illustrations here (note that they do contain spoilers).
And for those who have already read the fic, but wondering about what's "really" going on... here's the DVD commentary :-D
Realised that I never posted my fic to my own LJ. My apologies to everyone who has already seen this posted on the
lom_bigbang comm.

Date: 2011-09-03 02:50 am (UTC)Yes, it's been such a bastard of a week that sometimes I've forgotten that I've already finished my own Big Bang. :P But just got home from another hard-fought 12-hour day (I took home most of a bottle of red and sent my co-worker home with the white as overtime pay, yay not-for-profit culture!) and looking forward to a weekend of kicking back and reading all this fic I've been missing and yours is right at the top of my list :D
And yes, I've got real and not virtual scotch in hand and I'm not afraid to use it. LONG WEEKEND!!!! \o/

Date: 2011-09-03 08:21 am (UTC)I am determined to go through every BB fic and leave a comment, in the name of the Sisterhood of the Damned if nothing else. We gluttons for self-punishment have to stick together!
*snarfles a sip of the scotch -- yay, single malt!*
