In the beginning
“Eliot,” a male voice says out of nowhere.
He startles, jerks around. No one’s snuck up on him in over five years and he flips the knife around in his grip, ready to strike.
The room is empty but for him. Maybe he imagined it; maybe he left the com in his ear. He reaches up to check, but no—the com is with Leverage, which burned in LA. He’s alone here.
But the voice contradicts him by saying his name again.
“Who’s there?” he demands, palming a second knife.
A crack of light blinds him; when he can see again, a man stands there, in a wrinkled beige trenchcoat. “Eliot,” he says.
Eliot strikes, jamming one knife into the guy’s chest and slitting his throat with the other. But the man doesn’t go down; he just brings a hand up to the knife in his chest and pulls it out.
“That is tiresome,” he says.
Eliot stares, whispers, “The fuck?” as the man’s throat heals up without a scratch.
The man says somberly, “I am Castiel, an angel of the Lord. We have work for you.”
Mouth open, Eliot can’t think of a thing to say.

you'll burn when the world does, and blood will run, and your soul will finally flee, and everything will be—
everything will be perfect
nothing is right, but right isn't perfect, and everything will be better—the way it should have been—when it's on fire
fire cleanses
it'll hurt for a moment, but only a moment, and then everything will be perfect
he’ll be back, won’t he?
he’ll be back when you burn the world, when you burn with it—
he’ll come back to put out the flames
he will, he will, he has to
that’s what brothers do

I can’t believe you let that fucker get the drop on you, Dean grumbles while he’s trying to sleep.
I’m Priestly now, he explains. Priestly doesn’t know how to fight.
What the fuck ever, Dean growls. You’re wearin’ my face, dude. Tomorrow, we’re goin’ to the gym and I’m showing you how to kick ass.
I don’t fight! Priestly tells him. And I won’t. He rolls out of bed and goes to the bathroom, looks in the mirror. He didn’t take his eye-shadow off but all the piercings are out and his hair is purple, sticking up everywhere. See that? he asks. He’s in pretty good shape, but he knows that Dean was fuckin’ built.
I just… Dean says.
I know, Priestly responds, bringing a hand up to rub his eyes. But I’m not you, Dean. I’m not you.
He feels Dean sink back, deep into the darkness at the edge of his mind. I’m sorry, he says. Dean doesn’t respond. He won’t, that Priestly knows from experience. For a few days, he’ll be alone in his head again.
He goes back to his bed, crawls under the covers. He stares at the ceiling, remembering a brother he never had.

So, what would little Sammy wish for?
Lilith’s head on a plate. Bloody.
You’re not the boy you were. You’re better, stronger. Hey, don’t look away, Sam. It’s not something to be ashamed of. You’re growing up, is all. BoyKing becoming a man.
It’s amazing, being at your side. You have no idea, do you? You leak power and I soak it up, into every part of me. I savor it, bathe in it, dance with your shadow and pretend I wear your crown.
Oh, oops, did I say that aloud? Silly me. You don’t like hearing things like that, Sam, and why not? Afraid Dean won’t approve?
Don’t you get it, Sam? You said it yourself, when that siren-slut got up in you and made you his puppet. Her puppet? I’ve never been big on siren biology. Anyway. You said it yourself: Dean only slows you down. He gets in the way. You’re bound to him by shared history and shared blood, but he isn’t worth it. Let him go. You can set him up somewhere nice, a whole other life, a pretty little June Cleaver and a couple of Beavers.
You’re not the boy you were, the one he made that deal for. You’re someone new, someone strong and capable. Dean is a relic, tarnished and chipped. Let him go. You know he doesn’t want to be here, right?
C’mon, Sam, admit it. You don’t want him here, either. Just a thought, that’s all it would take. A few words, a little hand-waving, all that awesome will bent to one purpose—you could remake the world. That’s why both sides fear you so much.
Sam. Stop looking so anxious. You were born for this. Azazel, he didn’t give you anything you didn’t already have.
Listen—let Dean go. He’s baggage you don’t need, baggage you don’t want. You feel guilt. Some love. But he’s not the man he was, and neither are you. You’ve both changed. You don’t fit together anymore, and that hurts, Sam, I know it does. But we have bigger concerns now.
They’re grooming him to kill you, Sam. It’s why they brought him back. So you need to put him somewhere safe, somewhere they can’t get him.
You should kill him, but I know you won’t. And don’t worry, sweetie, I won’t kill him either.
You’re the king, Sam. You’re—listen, damnit—you’re Lucifer.

Date: 2009-03-04 01:34 am (UTC)Bwa! Poor Castiel, always getting knives stuck in him. And Eliot is kind of the Leverage version of Dean. :)
Really liked "better in fire" as well. Quite haunting.

Date: 2009-03-04 06:35 am (UTC)You know we're going to keep arguing about this til the end of show, right? Our boy Sammy is an unfallen Lucifer. Light-bearer, pure and simple. Trust the pastor on this!
They're all great, BTW. But what is Leverage? Something that definitely hasn't made it to Australia yet.

Date: 2009-03-04 07:30 pm (UTC)Are you familiar with Ocean's 11? It's kinda like that, except it's got Jake Talley from SN(and he was some dude on "Friday Night Lights") and Lindsey McDonald from "Angel the Series" and they go after bad guys. And it is AWESOME.
Thank you for reading!
