Dean stares down at Sam’s lifeless body, skin so pale its nearly translucent, his lips and eyelids tinted dark blue, and the tears stream silently down his face.

“What am I supposed to do, Sammy?” Dean’s desperate voice cracks as he lays his hand over Sam’s, and a the chill of death spreads through him.

Dean knows exactly what he’s supposed to do though  He’s known it ever since Sammy blinked those wide brown eyes at him for the last time and went limp in his arms, his warm blood still coating Dean’s fingers.

He’s got to do his job.

With Dean, it is, though.

This is very true. Painfully so. And he's starting to realize this, too; he's starting to think more for himself, which is so yay! and heartbreaking at the same time, you know?

But when Dean says that protecting Sammy is his job, I don't really get all that annoyed (and I don't think Sam gets especially worked up, either) because Dean's mindset keeps him very task-oriented. For instance, if Nathan were to say that protecting Peter was his job, I don't think it would sit as well. You know?
