Summary
Dean is running out of time to find a cure for the Mark of Cain. When he crosses a line, he has to take matters into his own hands. In a final act of goodness while he still has some left, Dean turns the First Blade on himself.
But it doesn't kill him. Not completely. He wakes up with black eyes and the weight of the world lifted from his shoulders. Now living in perfect synchrony with the Mark, it turns out becoming a demon was the only cure he needed.
Sam and Castiel, both falling apart in their own ways, will do everything they can to put Dean's pieces back together. Even if the cost is something none of them can come back from.
———————————————————————————
Long, plotty, epic journey fic, designed to leave every character with the happiest possible ending I can think of… buuut only well after each of them have reached their respective breaking points. In other words, angst with a happy ending.

Summary
Maybe it's the little girl whose disappearance turned into a murder, and whose murder turned into a cold case, and who has now apparently decided to move in with him. Maybe it's the unacceptable hole left in his life when his dumb best friend and partner in (the prevention of) crime decided to go and get himself killed. Maybe it's his brother, whose high-profile career and fantastic girlfriend and first-child-on-the-way are steadily leaving Dean in the dust. Pick one. Pick all of them. The why doesn't matter so much as the what, and the what is this: Dean is pretty sure he's going completely, certifiably insane. Sure, he hasn't started wearing all his clothes inside out, and he still showers on a regular basis (anyways, that's not crazy, just a little eccentric); but there's no getting around the fact that he just threw away his life, his career, and his reputation by dragging out his mom's old necromancy book and summoning a Class A Forbidden Entity to his attic. A cranky one, too. With horrendous bed-head.

Summary
Dean dies with the Mark of Cain on his arm, waking up with black eyes and hellfire licking at his heels.
Cas, sick on the stolen grace that's rotting inside him, gives chase.
As his pursuit and Dean's evasion ebbs and flows, they begin to figure out the difference between marks given and marks received, and what it means when one such mark is faded but not forgotten.
Written for the 2015 DCBB.
