[tigriswolf]

Title: brother, my brother

Fandom: Supernatural

Disclaimer: not my characters

Warnings: SPOILERS FOR 5.10

Pairings: none stated

Rating: PG

Wordcount: 100

Point of view: third

Notes: what I thought Dean should have done, there at the end

“Dean,” Sam says quietly. “I don’t know what to do.”

Castiel finally shows and Dean meets his eyes, flicks his gaze to Sam. Castiel opens his mouth, but Dean raises an eyebrow.

“Sammy,” Dean says. It’s goodbye and I love you and I’m sorry.

“Dean—” Sam starts, but Castiel touches his shoulder and they’re gone.

Lucifer’s still conducting his ceremony and Dean forces himself to his feet, glares down at their last-ditch effort that Jo and Ellen needlessly died for, and then he closes his eyes.

Okay, he thinks. Goddamnit.

“Lucifer!” he screams.

“Michael,” he whispers. “Michael… yes.”

Sam.

With your takes on the characters, this makes beautiful sense. Wasn't ever gonna happen on the show, though. (Not midseason, certainly.)

I knew it was long-shot, but I thought it'd be so cool to go into hiatus with Michael!Dean.

Thank you for reading!

I was pretty convinced that this would happen and am disappointed that it didn't. Nicely written.

[tigriswolf]

Thank you!

[amaresu]

I rather wish this had happened.

[tigriswolf]

Me, too!

[amaresu]

It feels like that would've been the logical response from Dean. Although he was just waking up when Cas arrived so perhaps he didn't have a chance?

Yes, yes, yes, absolutely. This episode was one of the most well done and saddest and... this makes sense.

[tigriswolf]

Thank you!

My god, that's just PERFECT.

[tigriswolf]

Thank you so much!

*heeeeeeeeeee*

If only, love... if only...

[tigriswolf]

It'd have been a kickass start to the hiatus, though.

Thank you for reading!

Considering there was already a lot of "damn you, kripke's" going around (some admiring, some in utter rage), if we entered hiatus with Michael!Dean, I think the resulting choruses would have rocked the world. LOL.

I love this take. :)

[tigriswolf]

Thank you!

Oh *cries*

That was exactly the cliffhanger I needed. I'm going to go the next two months pretending that's what happened.

[tigriswolf]

Thank you so much!

That would indeed solve a thorny dilemma for Dean. I suspect he was supposedly too addled from the flight into the tree to think that fast.

[tigriswolf]

I kept expecting it, though.
