    Summary

    It has been two months, three weeks, four days, and nine hours since he saw him last. Sending helps, but it doesn’t quite do him justice.

    Twenty-five words parcelled out in moments. In energy saved just in case. In beats and fragments that just left him wanting more.

    It pales to the vision of Essek whole, though he is still unsure if he is hale.

    ----

    A coming together and an exploration of what makes a house a home, told in twenty-four parts.

    Summary

    A 14.13 Lebanon rewrite. When Dean uses a wish-granting pearl to try and kill the archangel Michael before he can escape the cage in Dean's head, they instead wind up with a newly-resurrected John Winchester.

    It's been more than a decade since John died, and a lot has changed: Mary is alive, Sam and Dean have what passes for a proper home in the Men of Letters Bunker, and they're living with angels. John doesn't know angels are real, he doesn't know about the fragile new relationship between Dean and Castiel, and most of all, he doesn't know that Dean said yes to Michael, or that Dean's plan to defeat Michael would send him to a fate worse than death.

    Now Dean must contend with both his father asking questions he can't answer, and his loved ones learning about the darker truths of his childhood, all while constantly battling the archangel trapped inside him. But Dean coming to terms with his history may be the difference between this being the beginning of a journey—or the end.

    Summary

    Death, as any salesman will tell you, is the process by which the existential dust that all people and animals and plants and some lakes are made out of finally ceases the energetic process of expending itself. Death is when the machinery of being gives up the ghost, so to speak. Death is not the primal dumpster of slavery (to quote Patricia Williams) nor the spectral something-ness of the disappeared (to paraphrase Avery Gordon).

    Death is a yielding love letter to the stars. Put another way: Death is un-American.

    or: Sam drives out to Seattle. It takes him a year to get back.

    Summary

    Lee turning up out of nowhere. Fifteen years later. Added as an afterthought? To bring in an interesting foil, push forward the already meaningless plot? Chuck’s grubby fingerprints. The more Dean thought back on it, the stranger some things seemed.
