You follow her instructions as if your brother's life depends on it. It probably does. And that terrifies you more than anything ever has before. There's no one to blame but yourself if you screw this up.
You're supposed to elevate his legs but she tells you not to move him any more than you need to. You find an old crate and drag it over, sloshing through the small lake on your hands and knees like an ape. You gather Dean's legs up and prop them up on the crate. You wait for him to look at you like you're crazy. Tell you to get your giant paws off of him. It doesn't happen. He just lies there, limp like a puppet who'se strings have been cut, discarded and forgotten for something newer and brighter. Something with not so many chips and scars.
She tells you not to put anything under his head and it kills you to just lower it to the hard basement floor, but you do it. Because that's what you're told.
You kind of get it now. Why Dean likes orders so much, why he's so obedient. It's something to hang onto, when the rug's pulled out from under you. Something outside yourself, something greater.
What now, you ask. But that's it. She doesn't have anything for you. Wait, she says. Now you wait.
You take Dean's hand and ball it up against your chest.
You were wrong. This is the part you hate most.
(I didn't quite make it out of the basement. Sorry!)

Hm, I don't think LJ can recover stuff like that? :/ I could re-post the comment and you could respond to that one again, and I delete the rest of this thread? Agh. That might be awfully complicated. Or I could add the prompt for the masterlist, without reposting? Or, you know what? It'd probably be easiest if I just repost it in this thread, but after your fill. LOL, IDEK. Sorry for the confusion.

A coda to Faith. The scene(s) between Dean electrocuting himself and the cut to Sam in the hospital. Basically, I want Sam to freak out about finding his brother motionless in the basement, hovering when the ambulance arrives, when they first get to the hospital... Along those lines.

You need someone to tell you what to do.
D: OUCH because yes - it's interesting to see Sam think that, because he would, but how he so quickly goes his own way to do whatever it takes, regardless of what others tell him.
