Title: Brimstone (For now only on AO3) Author: felisblanco Rating: NC-17 Pairing: Sam/Dean Word count: 61.420 Warnings: Referenced non-con. Scary memories and flashbacks of Hell, some quite vivid. Canon violence. Summary: Dean crawls out of his grave four months after he was buried, clothes stinking of decay, soul tattered, body all shiny and new. But he’s fine. Everything is fine. Sam is fine. Bobby is fine. Everything is fine. Except… Hell has left him tainted. And Heaven seems to think he’s its puppet. And Sam… Sam is acting weird. But Dean’s fine. Well, he will be. He just has to get rid of this one thing first. Author’s note: Here it is, my almost-annual New Year’s Eve fic! This time it's a slightly different take on ep. 401-402, meant to fit in with the rest of s4. More or less. The idea was born while chatting to Candygramme way back in April about how much I love the detail of Dean wearing Sam’s clothes in 401 since he obviously didn’t have his own. From there it spun into this… malodorous thing. You'll see what I mean. Also, I feel I should mention, before anyone goes off, that this Castiel is as he was shown in the beginning, a terrifying powerful ethereal being. It’s been a battle to get this done in time but finally it came together. Phew. As always, the lovely Candygramme has my deepest gratitude for not only betaing but for being my biggest cheerleader and never tiring of asking me how I was getting on. Thank you, darling. Happy New Year!
