Blank Pages: Epilogue

Gabriel was not a morning person. Unlike Castiel, who simply shared Dean’s bed and tended not to sleep at all (choosing the second option of being a creeper and watching his significant other sleep all night), Gabriel liked to sleep. He liked to sleep a lot. Which was why he was just a little pissed when Sam came bounding ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: You Say Goodbye, I Say . . .

“Damn right they’re flawed, but a lot of them try to do better. To forgive.”

They took Crowley back to Bobby’s where the demon died not long after. He explained to Sam that Aziraphel had made the same sort of pact with him that Gabriel had with Sam, a bond of blood to blood. When one died, he said, the ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: Blood To Blood

Crowley had reclined the passenger seat as far as it would go, and he let himself sink into it with every breath, eyes closed and his hands folded across his chest. But every breath hurt, rattling in his lungs like death had a grip on him, on his host. “Hey,” he said suddenly, cracking open an eye, “Bobby, do you know ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: Deliver Us, Too

Aziraphale moved around Europe every few years, and Gabriel with him. Sam was startled the first time Crowley simply waltzed in a few years into the memories, and neither angel so much as lifted a finger to stop him. Gabriel looked up from the book he was reading with a raised eyebrow, “Caphriel, was wondering where ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: Of The Heart

Sam didn’t protest when Gabriel tugged him down at the ruins of Camlann, placing the Hunter’s head in his lap and threading his fingers through his hair, murmuring soothing things near his ear in a language Sam didn’t know. Norse, he guessed, with the way the words rumbled in the back of the archangel’s throat when he ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: The Once And Future

Sam had seen a lot inside of Gabriel’s memories, things he’d never thought he’d one day bear witness to in a thousand years. But all of them had had some sort of reference, whether it was biblical, a background Sam couldn’t deny since the moment Castiel had walked in on his and Dean’s life, and sometimes it was ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: Thursday

For what felt like years Sam watched Loki’s comings and going among humanity, and Gabriel didn’t once look his way. Sam watched him quarrel and fight with the other gods and demi-gods as if he truly belonged there, undeterred when they muttered behind his back that he was the odd duck of the family. The words made Sam’s ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: Web Of Lies

Sometimes, when he really has nothing better to do, Dean liked to think about alternate worlds. He knew they existed, he’d seen one. The one where they lost the fight for humanity and went down in a pathetic last stand sometime in the year 2014. It wasn’t pretty, and Dean hoped to God he’d never have to see it again.

Blank Pages: Ashes To Ashes

As Gabriel stepped back, Sam found himself staring at entirely different world than he’d last been placed in. Gabriel had vanished once again, and the Hunter’s eyes widened as he took in the sight of a cobbled street lined with low buildings underneath a pure blue. It wasn’t the perfect blue of Heaven and clouds ( Read more... )

Blank Pages: The Son Rises

“What now?” Sam winced as he asked it, Gabriel’s eyes falling on him with a look of exasperation.

“Do you even, remotely, think I have any more control over this than you do?” the archangel sighed, annoyed, “You agreed to this, Sam. And Kali made the spell. I have the least control over what happens next.” He ( Read more... )
