Oh, wonderful job with this chapter! I loved it. Especially this line:
Sam could feel Dean's heart beating under his palm. Could feel the beats throb upward through his arm – pound through his body. Solid – certain – steady. Bloodsmokesteel but also love, and courage. "I do. I trust him."
This really does seem to be the essence of Dean. You've created a slightly different Dean than in the series ... leaner and tougher, but just as loyal and strong. Love your Sam as well, and the mythology you've set up here.

I'm so looking forward to more!
