Summary
I’m poison, Dean had said instead of I’m sorry. Well, Sam wants to say, what does that make me? What the hell does that make me?
(A look into Sam's mind in the aftermath of the Gadreel possession.)

Summary
Colt thought he was stopping by to annoy his twin brother at work.
He did not expect to discover that Ryland Grace is actually a really good teacher. He definitely did not expect to become part of an seventh-grade physics lesson about momentum, impact, and why bodies need more time to survive a fall.

Summary
The Eridian thrills a high sound that doesn’t get picked up by the translator which means that it has no clear meaning. Like when a human gasps or sucks in a deep breath. It actually sounds a little like that. When they notice that I’m staring straight at them they scramble back into their hiding spot and hold very still.
A child, I realize with a start.
That’s a child!
“Hey,” I call and the kid squeaks again. I was about to get to my feet but abort the movement and crawl closer on my hands and knees until I'm inches away from the xenonite wall. I wait and it takes me much too long to realize that they don’t have to peek around the corner to see if I’m still there.
“Hey there,” I try again, my voice low and calm. It’s my teacher voice, the one I use for shy and scared students.
Used.
The fact that I haven’t had to use it for years and it still comes to me automatically almost knocks the air out of my lungs but this is not about me, it’s about making sure the little pebble doesn’t die of fright from the scary alien. “Hi, I’m Grace. It’s alright, you don’t have to be scared.”

Summary
#47, Pete McVries, has a girl back home. It takes a while to get him to open up about it, he’s cagey about his home life, the tinfoil wrapped package of cookies in his pack, and the photograph he keeps folded into quarters and tucked into his shirt pocket. Almost everyone’s tried to get a peek at it over his shoulder at one point or another, and Olson even gets a warning for interference when he tries to snatch it from his hands.
“C’mon,” Olson whines. “Why don’t you want us to see her? She ugly or something?”
“Prettiest thing you’ve ever seen.” McVries is finally coaxed into saying. “Big brown eyes, red hair, soft all over.”

Summary
Who are you? She wants to ask. Why did you save my son?
She’s both grateful and terrified. When she dropped Ray off at the starting line, she never really thought he’d come back to her. And if he did, it would be as someone she didn’t recognize. A scraped out shell of her son. She didn’t think he’d come home like this, still able to laugh and talk animatedly with his hands and follow her around the kitchen as she made dinner. It’s a debt she can never repay, and she doesn’t know how to react to this boy in her home.Bookmarked by cutechenle
