Hell on earth didn't come in storms of fire - or at least, it didn't stay that way. 

It was cold, and it was empty - and the reality of it was in the way it scraped out the survivors from the inside out.  

Armageddon came internally.

Maybe he was hoping she'd snap, and he'd go the way of her last Dean.  It'd be easier that way, some days. 

He didn't go into her arms to feel alive.  He went with a death wish. 

She never fucking followed through. 

He wondered what she was getting out of this some days, but he figured it might be the same thing he got sometimes.  Pretending.  Or self-loathing.  Both were pretty popular hobbies in the post-Apocalyptic era.

He thought he might hate her.  But it required an effort of emotion he didn't feel like summoning up.

So they just existed.  Shared space.  Shared nothing. 

It was theirs, at least.  That was something.

I'm not sure what it says about me that something so angsty and fucked up cheered me up..but it did.

This is short..but it says a lot in a few words, which is always amazing and nice to see pulled off. Sometimes that's harder than being lengthy. Stop me if I'm..not making sense. I do that sometimes, especially when I'm just..jizzing all over myself.

This is so depressing and wrong, and yet it makes so much sense considering what the Everybody's Fucked verse is like..which really makes me just that much more excited at rping out something between them in that verse. I just want to take this drabble and marry it, holding it close to my heart forever. I'm..such a whore for angst. It's a problem.

Also..the idea of them having sex out of self loathing and trying to pretend? Hotter than it should be.

Fucked up things cheer me up too. So I'm glad to oblige. ♥

I'm so glad you think so because... I really work harder on really short pieces than on long ones. But I always like them better when I can make them work.

I'm happy you approve of this angle because it's the one I think... makes the most sense for them in EF. :3 FOR WHICH I AM VERY EXCITE, CAN YOU NOT TELL?

You are so sweet, ilu. <3

I'm always excited when I can get short things to work too, I think it's a much bigger challenge, in a lot of ways.

I AM VERY EXCITE TOO. It totally makes the most sense for them. Omnomnomnom. I eat angst and fucked upness like it's fucking breakfast.
