to possess

 

            Sam sees the way they look at his brother. Like he’s just a body, something they want to own, to possess, to break. Sam knows how attractive Dean is, but until they’re in prison, it’s never hit him like this.

            Dean turns a blind eye to the danger, sure he can handle himself. But Sam sees the inmates watch Dean, talking amongst themselves.

            They need to get out of here. But until the hunt is over, Dean won’t leave. So Sam will keep an eye on his brother, make sure Dean’s never alone.   And any of those bastards ever try something… One of them meets Sam’s gaze across the room. Sam’s not the first to look away.

 

It’s a brother thing

 

for violetlily18

 

            Dean should have been back hours ago. He’s not, and something’s gone wrong.

            It’s not a psychic thing: Dean, ever since Meg possessed me, lets me know where he is. Just like I call him to check in.

            But I can’t get him. He’s not answering his phone. He’d pick up just to tell me to stop calling, but he hasn’t.

            Something’s wrong. He’s hours late, with no word. Something’s wrong. Dean’s in trouble—I know it. I have to find him because I can’t lose him too.

            I can’t. I won’t. 

within a finger's breadth of being mad

 

            “Sam!”

            Bobby flinches and turns, looks back through the gloom at John’s boys. He’s not nearly fast enough to catch the back-stabbing bastard, and all his shots miss—Bobby has never been good with guns, and he’s never regretted it so much as now.

            He trudges back to where Dean is gripping his brother, silently rocking.

            Bobby looks away, reaching up to rub his eyes. The world just became a much bleaker place, and Bobby can’t begin to imagine what Dean will do now.

I would not lose you for a world

 

            He’s trapped, knowledge billowing up—I killed you—and Mom’s killer, Jessica’s killer, Dad’s killer kneeling next to Dean, saying something he can’t hear, standing back, raising the Colt—

            He can’t get free, everything’s just out of reach, nothing’s right, nothing—I killed you—Dean was so desperate, so happy to see him—you can’t patch up a wound that bad—

            The demon is raising the Colt, his back to Sam. But he can’t move, can’t move—just a little more time, he’ll make the power work—my favorite—

            And then—

            Dad?

Nicely done, all of them. :)

Love this. Big brothers aren’t the only brothers capable of fierceness.

I can’t. I won’t.

Oh, Sam. He’s lost so much.

Poor Bobby, unable to stop Sam’s death and knowing things are going to get bad where Dean’s concerned.

Good job capturing Sam’s angst and struggles in those moments before John shows up.

[tigriswolf]

Thank you so much!

The first one is my favourite. I love any Folsom-related fics and yours is great. Iwish it's longer though. Much, much longer. Like 20k or so :)

And Sam's angst and worry in the second is totally heartfelt. Lovely, all of them.

[tigriswolf]

That's one of my favorite drabbles, too!

Twenty-thousand words? Really? Meep.

[violetlily18.livejournal.com]

I really liked it!! Thank you for writing it for me. Sam just can't lose Dean. Otherwise he'll go crazy(as you've demonstrated in other fics.)

[tigriswolf]

Thanks!

You really should get some icons, you know.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

Terrific job portraying Sam's desperation over Dean. And it hasn't even gotten to the worst yet.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

BTW, can I snag some of your user icons?

[tigriswolf]

Thank you!

[tigriswolf]

Sure, as long as you credit whoever made them.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

How do I credit them? Is that what the Comments line when adding a new pic is for? I've only done the one, you see.

[tigriswolf]

Yes, in the comment line you put(minus the quotation marks) <"lj user=whoever">

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I take it there's no way to underline in a comment, either? Pasting an underlined word from my journal (Miniseries) here resulted in a normal word.

Thanks a lot! Then I'll post that list here, if that's okay. Underlining is a necessary part of the presentation.

[tigriswolf]

In your own journal, you mean?

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

I meant that entry in your journal. Whichever you'd prefer.

[tigriswolf]

*is confused* What list?

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

The list of BSG episodes, in case any titles of this fraktastic show make your mouth water. Why don't I do it in my own journal? I can make a series of them for different shows, I like keeping track of things.

[tigriswolf]

Ooohhh. I thought we were talking about the family files.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

Sorry for any confusion.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

It's upness now, on my journal.

So what do you think of that scene from Revising History overall?

[tigriswolf]

I like it. Twisty and slightly omnious.

[noybusiness.livejournal.com]

Thanks, that's the idea. Please check out the list on my journal when you have the time.
