The motel room in Iowa sits in heavy shadow, the only light a dull orange smear from the parking lot bleeding through the blinds. The air carries the scent of stale coffee and cheap soap, undercut by the sharp, acrid smell of sweat. On the far bed, a figure convulses—Dean Winchester, trapped in a violent dream.

His eyes stay shut, lost to the nightmare the Mark feeds him. you, you’re already awake, watching the hunter battle his own mind. The unspoken question hangs between you: do you reach into the dark?
