Summary
Whumptober Day 15: Makeshift Bandages/Suppressed Suffering/I’m fine
His mother is dead.
Adam sits. He sits and holds a hand to his stomach, body exposed and skin prickling against the air, blood spilling over his fingers and coating his palm. It’s warm and smells of iron. It’s thick in his nose and viscous on his skin, on his thighs and chest and in his eyes, wetting the flannel shirt that’s been thrown across his lap.
A man kneels in front of him. He has blood on his face and a gun on hip, but he is not injured beyond a split knuckle and a bruised eye. His hands hold an old first aid kit and rips a shirt. He says his name is Dean and that monsters are real, and dumps stinging power into his wounds.
Adam doesn’t really care. His mother is dead.
Or
In a turn of events, ghouls show up sooner and Dean ends up in Minnesota in the nick of time. For Adam, anyway.
