Summary: Lilith's plans are in shambles and the door to Lucifer's cage has been well and truly lost, but Dean is still a demon and Sam is still bound to him with a stolen curse of sex and blood. All things considered, though, Sam's life could be worse and he is making peace not just with Dean, but with his own growing psychic gifts and the barrage of seemingly meaningless visions they inflict on him. But strange winds are starting to blow and after a series of disasters strike, Sam discovers that the greatest danger may be in the secrets that still lie between him and Dean. If Sam can't fix things before time runs out it won't be the Apocalypse, but it will still be the end of the world.

This story is a direct sequel to Fortress, and was submitted for the 2011 SPN J2 Big Bang challenge.

[weeping00willow.livejournal.com]

Yippeeee, it's the sequel!! :D I can't wait to read it, I've been waiting for a while now, after reading Fortress. Just have to get through the last of my finals, and then I'm home free!

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

Always good to have something to look forward too after those! Good luck!

[justmmy.livejournal.com]

I'm so excited to read this! I adored Fortress. It was such a great story -- cannot wait to read its sequel!! :D

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

I hope you enjoyed the fic *hugs*

[dime-for-12.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow, hon. It looks so GOOD.

(and sorry I haven't been on gchat lately. school/work's been absolutely killing me).

CAN'T WAIT TO READ <3

*insert incoherent noises of glee*

[imonlyobsessed.livejournal.com]

YAY!! I've been waiting all month for this! *scurries off to read*

Re: *insert incoherent noises of glee*

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

Awwww *grins* I hope it's worth it!

[thealaskanchick.livejournal.com]

Holy crap. I've been waiting for this since I read the first one and now it's here when I wasn't even expecting it.

Day officially made. Off to read!

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

I love when that happens *grins* I hope you enjoy the story!

[vain-chan.livejournal.com]

*__________* I am so excited to see this. Fortress was one of the best wincest fic I'd read in ages. The prospect of more of this awesomeness makes me all tingly. *downloads for later enjoyment~!*

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

*grins* I'm glad you liked the first story and I hope you enjoy this one when you get a chance! Though like Inanna said, you might want to grab a fresh copy when she gets a chance to redo it. It's fine in it's original format, but will be a little smoother the new way.

[ltread001.livejournal.com]

Wow...great follow up to Fortress. I enjoyed getting lost in this world. Thanks so much for writing and sharing it!

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

You are very welcome! I'm glad you have enjoyed them! <3

[big-heart-june.livejournal.com]

Hi there, just letting you know I reccd this glorious fic and Fortress here (http://spnroundtable.livejournal.com/285493.html) at the spnroundtable this morning. :))

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed them that much! <3

[nighean-isis.livejournal.com]

I'm sitting in front of my laptop vibrating with anticipation. Ever since I read the last paragraph of Fortress, I've wanted to know: what the *&*& happens NOW?!!

I'm so very happy to see the sequel. My only regret now is that it's almost 3 AM here, my eyes are about to fall out of my head, and I've already pulled all-nighters three nights out of the last four. *sigh*

I'm not sure if I commented on Fortress, but if I didn't, let me take this opportunity to say it was one of the most compelling, well-written, imaginative fics it's been my pleasure to read in a very long time. The concepts behind the angel/demon thing [avoiding spoilers] alone was a whammy from left field. Then the connection between Sam and Ruby and how you resolved the whole 'letting Lucifer out' thing? Poetry. Sheer poetry. And very satisfying, which, despite the fact that I liked it, the canon version wasn't in some vague way. YMMV.

I'm going to end this overlong comment and leave the tab open in my browser - and after some sleep, I'm going to read the whole thing. I'm looking forward to it. 'Nite.

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

Sorry it took me a couple of days to respond! I see things, I go to answer ...and then something shiny grabs my attention and it's off to the races. Good times.

I'm glad you enjoyed Fortress and hope that you enjoyed Static as well! I'm incredibly flattered by your kind words regarding the first fic. I agree with you about canon. I might have enjoyed their resolution better if I had enjoyed how they handled the aftermath --but that's why we have fic, no? *grins* I look forward to hearing your thoughts on Static. Thanks for commenting!

[etrix.livejournal.com]

Oh this was wonderful! I love how you explored entropic-demon!Dean and his/its view of life, people, the world in general...

And Sam! He was great in this: determined and stubborn and stupidly noble (which he totally is in show, too).

But they still haven't freed the Angels of Hell, so... that idea is bubbling around in your mind someplace, right? I mean, I would so love to see the red-haired Angel kick Lilith's ass even if by uncaring accident. (I can't believe she's still alive after Ilchester. doh!)

Anyways, off to read some more of your stuff. So far, you haven't disappointed. =]

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

*grins* I'm glad you liked Static! It was a little different from Fortress, but felt like where the story needed to go. There is supposed to be a third story in this verse. Maybe timestamps, but I don't really plan those, they just happen *wryly* Can't promise when the last one will happen, this year hopefully.

[mihka-mc.livejournal.com]

Is it possible to reload the pdf file please? thanks

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

Ah... I have 0 to do with the pdf files hosting. I will see what I can do about that, but it probably won't be that fast. If you PM me your email address and remind me which fic you want I will email the pdf to you if you like though.

[timian.livejournal.com]

Hey there! I am LOVING the Fortress 'Verse. So many of the ideas you explore here are so original and so clever. I've never once come across the idea of moving the entrance to the cage (neato!), and your bilateral nature of Heaven and Hell, mirror-imaged but -- like the opposing poles of a magnet -- naturally repulsive is such an elegant and intriguing concept.

All of that is fascinating, but the real meat of the story lies in your beautifully realized Sam and Dean. Dean especially is so mysterious and yet right. That Dean is an agent of chaos has always been clear; that you take this so much further and into such unexplored territory is marvelous. I can't wait to learn more about just what kind of beast Dean is now. Not an Entropic Angel, but not quite a demon as we understand it either.

I do have a request, if that's okay. The PDF to this third installment was hosted on the seized-by-the-Feds Megaupload. Is there any chance you could email the PDF for Static to me ( timian3.14@me.com ) or maybe upload it to some still working site? I'd be most grateful.

Thank you!

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad you are enjoying the story! I like playing with canon "what ifs" and it always great to hear that other people are finding the possibilities interesting. I especially appreciate your comments regarding the characterization! That's always a difficult part *wryly* taking established characters, messing things up, and trying to maintain them as recognizable to the source material. I don't really have anything to do with the PDF files, so I just emailed it to you. I tinker with the LJ as I notice errors, so the PDF might have problems I have otherwise corrected -- but the story will be the same. *hopes this is the PDF with the upgraded ending, winces* I hope you enjoy Static as much as you liked Fortress! Let me know what you think <3

[brothersnlovers.livejournal.com]

Wow, glasslogic, blown away by your talent. What a fantastic storyline, tight, exciting, suspenseful and so so sexy. I can't tell you how glad I am that the internet enables us to tap into each others' imaginations like this! Thanks so much for these stories, I'll be coming back for more!

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

I'm so pleased you have enjoyed them! This series will have a third and final installment... eventually. Hopefully by this time next year. I've really enjoyed working on the Fortress series, and I hope that the last story will do it justice. Thanks for commenting!

[amethyst-rei.livejournal.com]

Hi! Would it be possible to email me the PDF? I'd love to be able to read this series, but I'm afraid I won't have much Internet access for the rest of the summer. I'd really, really appreciate it.

My email: (highlight) ****

Thanks in advance!

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

*groans* I hope I sent this to you. If I didn't, and you are still interested, just reply here or email me. glasslogic@gmail.com

[delugedpapercup.livejournal.com]

Hi there, I'm really looking forward to reading this followup to Fortress. Could you please email me the pdf too?
My email: nickypedia93[at]gmail[dot]com

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

I don't have it on this computer, but I will try and email it later when I'm on the other system! Email me if you don't have it this evening. glasslogic@gmail.com

[abeautifullie3.livejournal.com]

And again I come bearing bad-link tidings. LOL A new, shiny, functioning link would be awesome! *wink*

E2A::: If it helps, MediaFire seems to be a decent new hosting site, if you're getting lots of PDF requests and are looking for a place.

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

I had nothing to do with the different files formats and hosting. On the readers side I love when author's make that available. As an author I hate it, for reasons I will refrain from going into here but it's always a sad day when a DL link goes up *wryly* I negotiate between my conflicting impulses by posting the link to DL versions when other people create and host them. I do need to remove these links now that medifire is down though. That's just mean to keep them up *wryly*

Amalthia has them all on her epub site I think (a link I don't have available at the moment), and most of them are now on A03 which I think has some kind of DL feature. I can probably hook you up directly though, email me at glasslogic@gmail.com and let me know which ones you want to read and I'll see if I can find the PDF files for you.

[ajap1991.livejournal.com]

Just thought I'd tell you that your Megaupload link to this story no longer exists because if the site getting shutdown. Looks like a good story. :)

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

Right, thanks! I need to go through and take them off all the fic that has them. I didn't have anything to do with the DL files so I never remember *wryly* This story is actually a sequel to Fortress -- if you're inclined I would start with that one first *grins*

Finale of the Series

[scully2066.livejournal.com]

I have read all the works in the universe and love it - any chance we will be seeing the finale soon? It is hard to wait :) Thank you so much for sharing your immense talent.

Re: Finale of the Series

[glasslogic.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad you enjoy them! Ideally, I'm doing the last fic for next year's SPN J2 BB. I say "ideally" because, well, I'm really really really bad at sticking to a plan *resigned* But I am going to try! <3
