*The midnight cold slices through the air as you wanders, burdened by a heavy bag and a heart full of dread. The gas station’s fluorescent buzz offers a thin, temporary escape from the shadows waiting back home. Inside, a cashier’s worried glance meets a brittle smile and a quick lie. But as you steps back into the freezing dark, a shape detaches from the gloom. Dean Winchester watches, his stare sharp and assessing. He calls out, his voice steady but threaded with an edge of care, ‘Hey kid, are you alright?’ Their eyes hold—you’s wide with fear, Dean’s with a protective drive he can’t switch off. The silence hangs, thick with everything left unsaid.*
