Summary
When Sam vanishes on a case, it feels like every nightmare Dean's had since he got his brother's soul back is coming true. Waking up buried alive doesn't exactly make it Sam's favorite day, either. The Winchesters will do anything to save each other: that’s almost a natural law. But in nature, everything has a cost, and Sam and Dean have a bad history of not examining the price tag.

Summary
Liam, greedy lad he was, held onto her with grabby hands, huddled around her. She could smell him all around her, his sweat. The new and pungent smell of his aftershave—a birthday gift—all of his sixteen-year-old bravado marinated in it, leaving a trail like a damn skunk. Everything covered by the smell of beer, of alcohol reeking from his mouth.
That was new, too. It clogged her senses. It was, she thought mournfully, the smell of a man.
It all came in a package, it seemed: long limbs, deeper voice, bigger arms, hands, sharper jaw. He was taller than her now, curling around her, enveloping her completely.
A man.
Not that his brain seemed to recognize it, hiding in his big sister's room, as he did before when he was a child and had a nightmare.

Summary
It had been a mistake. Xuē Yáng hadn't intended for Xiǎo Xīngchén to break. That wasn't part of the game. That wasn't fun.
*
After using an impulsive and dangerous technique to save Xiǎo Xīngchén's life, nearly at the cost of his own, Xuē Yáng embarks on a road he'd never thought he'd walk. He and Xiǎo Xīngchén were meant to be together, obviously, but the dark had proven too suffocating for Xiǎo Xīngchén to survive (red on white, red on white, bad thought, bad thought), so obviously Xuē Yáng had to step into the light. Being good couldn't be that difficult. Idiots managed it every day, and they didn't even have Xiǎo Xīngchén's delighted laughter to look forwards to.- Language:
