Stone Heart
***********

Warnings: None
Summary: Season 10 – Sam is haunted by the CCTV footage of Dean’s demon eyes.

***********
In the ancient church, darkness gathers under rounded arches. Blind statues stare.
Stone number one, Sammy, Dean says, pressing fingers deep into Sam’s palm. Sam’s veins light up, magma-bright with the Mark’s pyroclastic flow, moving from Dean to Sam.
Pressure increases, and with a percussive crack, Dean shatters.
Sam falls to his knees, frantic.
How can he find the first stone amongst this rubble?

Sam wakes, wide-eyed and sweating. There’s no subtlety in his nightmare – fear that his brother’s heart has petrified stops him breathing sometimes; the ache in his chest won’t let him rest.
He has to find Dean.

***********

Oh, this is great. Really striking imagery, and I love that callback to 'stone number one' and how you've turned the idea around to suit S10. ♥

Oh, that's fantastic--frantic and panicky and so much deep desperate attachment. Thank you!

Wow. So powerful and wonderfully expressive. You've really captured the mood of nightmare and the symbolism is spot on.

Amazing how much you've expressed here in so few words. Beautiful imagery, symbols. Dreamlike quality in the language itself. Love.

Not yet it hasn't, but I'm not betting against it happening at some point, lol!

Ohhh such a powerful drabble! I loved your reference to 'stone number one' and how you've used that within the context of season 10. Very effective.

Thank you for sharing :)
