Who: Dean Winchester and Liam Dunbar (with special guest appearance by Molly Walker and apparently also Scott McCall) What: The Mark of Cain wants blood When: Thursday Where: Out in town Warnings: TBD Status: Closed/On-Going
The First Blade had made its way into his hand a day ago, and Dean had been trying to lay low. He’d been trying to stay away from people he cared about and had tried getting royally wasted but had wound up just wandering around. If he’d been smart, he’d have left the Blade somewhere, with someone, anywhere out of his possession. He knew exactly what was coming when he had it, but with no one stopping him he couldn’t let it go.
He had a lot more reason to live, here, but a lot less needing him to keep sane.
It wasn’t late yet, but he was wandering around, knew he couldn’t escape it all forever, knew that sooner before later he was going to have to go back to his people, let one of them keep the promise they’d all made to deal with him when the time came. Not yet. He wanted to fight it a little longer.
Dean wasn’t winning that fight.
Walking around was a bad idea. He knew, in a vague sort of way, who the monsters in town were, even if he wasn’t supposed to think of them as monsters. He knew exactly what it was that had him turning to stalk after the young one that he spotted walking around, knew exactly what he was doing, just looking for a reason.
