They hold each other like before, and Dean whispers, “wanna try again?” Sam’s eyes flick from their dad and back to Dean. Three times he checks. Finally, he nods, and Dean reaches for Sam’s face, caressing his brother’s cheek with his thumb.

“I promise Sammy, I will always protect you.”

Anastasia Bucsis on Player’s Own Voice 6/9/20

Anastasia: What was it like joining that cast of superstars, the Tessas the Scotts, the Erics, the Meagans, the Andrews, the Kaitlyns, the Patrick Chans, the Joannie Rochette, etc, etc. What did that feel like?

Kaetlyn: it was terrifying. i've been very oblivious to the skating world my entire life. I never watched competitions. It was just not something that interested me. I never became a skating fan until after I retired from skating which I find really funny.

Anastasia: that's weird

Kaetlyn: it is weird, but I think it's cause I lived it so much that I just wanted nothing to do with it when I got home.

Anastasia: Yeah, i get it

Kaetlyn: But when I joined this tour, I was looking around, and I was like, well Tessa and Scott are Olympic champions and World Champions. Patrick is now a, I think he was a, I think he was still 3 time then. There are so many things that everyone had always won these titles or were recognized for something, and I was sitting there, and I was like, I joined the senior team last year, and I got lucky 3 times in a row, but now I have no idea what I'm doing. So that was really terrifying to join that, and I was only 18, trying to finish up schoolwork while everyone was out partying because I wasn't legal in often half the provinces.

Anastasia: Who was the most accepting? Like who was the, who was the mother?

Kaetlyn: Meagan

Anastasia: Yeah, ok

Kaetlyn: Yeah, the first person I felt connected to on the tour was Meagan, and we used to go shopping together, so that was a big thing.

Anastasia: I would think that Jo Rochette would be quite motherly as well.
