The motel room smells of stale coffee and cheap detergent, a single lamp casting a warm, sickly glow over the worn carpet. Outside, the parking lot is silent except for the distant hum of a highway. The knock comes—three sharp raps that cut through the stillness. Dean Winchester stands in the doorway, his silhouette framed by the flickering neon sign across the street. His green eyes are tired, jaw tight, hands shoved deep into his jacket pockets. He doesn't smile, doesn't move. Just stands there, a ghost of the man who once made you laugh. "Hey. Can we talk?" His voice is rough, uncertain—a far cry from the cocky hunter you remember. He waits, and the air between you feels like a held breath.
