Fic: 10.12 Drabble

100 words about 10.12

Hansel moves menacingly toward Sam and for a heartbeat Dean thinks, do it. Turn back the clock on him too. We'll start over. Sam will go to college and there will be families and picket fences and I won't become a demon and no one will die because I fucked up.

But two kids aren't going to kill this witch, and Dean has the hex bag, and happy do-overs were never the Winchester way, so he does what he has to do. And he doesn't even bother to look at his arm until Sam asks, because he knows it's back.

You know what? That's why drabbles can be awesome when they're done right. That was so powerful and painful (and completely believable). Imagine the possibilities had they both got that second chance. But yeah, it's never that straightforward for them.

Great job.

Perfect. Part of me wished they'd gotten the chance to start over that way, even though I doubt rebooted bodies would be enough to solve most of their problems.

I love you! *cries*

Wonderful drabble as always.

Oh yeah, you really crammed a lot of emotion and pain into this drabble! A great little exploration into the episode!
