You made it very, very intense, without being overly descriptive. I feel for Dean and am glad that Michael chose to step in to help when he did. I'm now intrigue to see how Michael will go about, to help or not and who he will use as a vessel.

As for Lucifer, I just love how you wrote him. Vicious, sadistic and cruel. Trying to erase Dean out of existence and then wailed on Castiel. It's how Lucifer would act.
