Spoilers for 5:16
Double drabble 100 words each part.
It was supposed to be for Dad. Once upon a time it meant everything that Sam had given it to him instead, but suddenly Dean’s remembering that he’d gotten it by default. It’s useless for finding God- nothing now but a reminder of something that never really existed. The gift of the amulet was never about Sam’s feelings for him, but about Sam’s feelings against Dad. He pauses in the doorway, willing his fingers to release the leather cord. There’s a soft thud as it hits the trash and then he’s out the door. Dean’s finally hollowed out. Empty. Done.
**************************************************
It was supposed to be for Dad. But it should always have been for Dean. When Cas tosses the amulet back-calls it worthless- Sam waits for Dean to prove the angel wrong. To put it around his neck- be right again. Dean just grips it loosely and heads for the door. It hurts when Dean drops the amulet but Sam just picks it up and puts it on. Dean’s lost faith, but he hasn’t. He’d put his right where it belonged that long ago Christmas. Dean thinks he can’t finish this-but Sam has faith- belief- that Dean will.
