Summary: Dean’s a ghost but hey, Sam will get him back alive and in the meantime, he’s right here, so it’s all okay, right? Right? What’s right is the Winchester brother’s complicated, impossible codependent need to fix it, regardless of the consequences. Set around 9:10, before they find the Book of the Damned.
They found a coffee shop and Sam left the gun in the Impala and went inside to eat. Dean…let go of his visibility and sat in the passenger seat and looked around to see if anyone-angels, demons, bored ghost cheerleaders-were following them.
“Squirrel. So it’s true.” Crowley was sitting in the driver’s side seat. The King of Hell looked properly dapper.
“Great,” Dean said. “How did you find out?”
“It’s all over Hell,” Crowley said. “Dean Westchester’s gone for a Burton and ducked his reaper.”
“Awesome,” Dean said. Of course Crowley could see him. Angels and demons would be able to see the dead.
“So, Moose has got a plan to get you back, right?”
Mangacat201 not only made the astonishing art but this is AmeliaCareful’s first piece of fanfiction and Mangacat201 was her native guide into the community. All mistakes in the text are completely Amelia’s. All mistakes of canon are, too.
And the community is awesome, by the way.
