Behind Closed Doors

Sam told Rowena and the world didn't end, and he didn't crumble. Dean would listen, and maybe he would understand why Sam gave Rowena that page; it isn't all because of Mom and Jack. It runs deeper than that.

He opens his mouth, but the words don't come; always skirting around the edges, but never quite to the heart of it.

Sam leaves the kitchen because he has to. His back slides down the wood of his closed bedroom door as he tries to cram the cage memories back where they belong; behind the warded triple-locked door in his mind.



A/N: I loved this episode. I truly did. I love it when Show goes from comedy in one scene, to decidedly not comedy in the next (we have a history of doing this very well, and it's great to be reminded of that!) I loved adorable love-hexed Dean, the brotherly fight on the impala, the wonderful return of Rowena, the scenes with Sam and Rowena about Lucifer trauma, the brotherly emotional scenes, the glimmer we got of badass!Cas (I'm guessing that Lucifer isn't really dead), and the dread of wondering what Rowena is going to do with these recently freed powers of hers. I would love to see Rowena get revenge on Lucifer, and for Sam to be a part of it too (or at least be there). A girl can dream, can't she? As always I'd love to hear your thoughts too; on the episode, on the drabble, on everything (just no spoilers please). Take care :)

Thank you so very much for this sweet and thoughtful comment! I think it's great that we've finally heard about Sam's coping (or not coping) mechanisms for his cage trauma. It was great to see him opening up, and for it to be another victim makes so much sense to me. Like you say he's been locking things up for so long, and maybe we'll see him try to deal with it all for good in the upcoming episodes (maybe from Lucifer's death by Rowena's hands!) Thank you for stopping by :)
