Single sentence fic: 11.23 Coda

[caranfindel]

Sam is on his knees, hands bound behind his back, coughing up his own blood, knowing the face of the MoL's enforcer is the last thing he'll ever see, vision going dark around the edges, when he sees Dean run into the room, face frozen in horror, and somehow Mom is with him, somehow Mom and Dean are together, somehow his last desperate hope actually came true and Billie relented and let his brother into Heaven with their mother, and maybe they're here to meet Sam as he leaves this world, maybe Sam will be allowed to join them and maybe he won't, but it doesn't matter, this is enough, Dean made it to Heaven and Sam got to see him one last time and this is enough, so he struggles to his feet and it hurts, oh god it hurts, but he will not meet death on his knees, not this time, and he smiles before he spits a mouthful of blood at the bastard who twisted the blade into his gut, because this is a good day to die.

Damn straight. That's how a Winchester dies (or hopefully not)
Great job.

NOOOOO! All the feels but definitely a great piece of work here! :)

Don't worry; Dean and Mary are there and not ghosts and are going to save him. :)

Thank you!

YISSSS Sam's a badass hunter, even when he's bleeding out. Nice one.

Because he's Sam Fucking Winchester!

Thanks for reading/commenting. :)

The whole single sentence thing just notches up the anxiety. It's relentless. But it's excellent. <3

Thank you!

Now that's how the show should end!

I don't know if I want them to go out with a bang, or ride off into the sunset.

Gotta love some badass Sam!!! But it's so bittersweet that he thinks Dean and his Mon are in heaven. I love this!

[caranfindel.livejournal.com]

I can't get past the idea of Sam thinking he's dead because he sees his mom and brother!

This is everything that is right with the show. Bravo!

Thanks!

Awesome fic, heart-rending as usual. My LJ tag for you is "hand-crafted individual worst case scenarios," and I see it's still so.

[caranfindel.livejournal.com]

Ha! Thank you. I will do my best to live up to that title. :)

[auroramama]

Today's is really excruciatingly good.

Yeah, when I posted that I thought "here's another worst case scenario for auroramama..." ;-)
