Endemic (It Takes a Soul To Hold It)

Dean and Sam check out mysterious underground deaths, and it all becomes too hard to resist in ways Sam wishes they had never discovered.

Gen, 7200 words, PG-13 for Dean’s mouth. Set in season 4, pre-Luci.

“We’ve allowed these…agreements…to go on too long. A wound like this should be cauterized, not patched.”

Season 4 boys are hard to read sometimes, but so much harder to write. But here you did the near impossible and made season 4 boys not quite as difficult, and you did that mostly by showing us how much Sam still loves Dean, how much he cares what happens to him, and although we still got that in season 4, you made it a whole lot more explicit.

The remains laid on top of each other like dead bodies in bunkbeds was truly creepy too!
