Samhain, big red moon. Two boys grown through ten more tides; clinked El Sols, inked-on Kansan sky.

You remember--Dean says.

Sam looks at him. Half a leaf, oak maybe, hairstuck.

--when you thought I was dead? Dean says.

Which time? Sam sighs. Leaf tumbles.

Darkness, Dean says.

Sam’s shoulders inch up; mouth twist, twitch of an arch. Dean lets an arm drip quiet over his brother's back.

Yeah, Sam says, blinks the way he did--

when he was a kid, pre-monster, draped in a costume-shroud.

Yeah, Sam says.

The engine goes cool.

They drink to the dead.

not a genre, gifts, maybe a story
