Title: Shores of Tripoli
Rating: PG
Summary: Jo and Ellen died just before Veterans' Day. 5x10 "Abandon All Hope" coda.
Word Count: 118
Dean and Sam visit a bar filled with off-duty Air Force personnel on November eleventh and raise a toast to their friends who fell in this Godforsaken holy war; they mean Mary and John, Jo and Ellen, but everyone hears Carrasco and Espinoza, Andersen and Helton. If it's this hard to tell what's a sign of the apocalypse and what's people being (flawed, murderous, destructive) people, if humans will go right on killing each other even without demons and angels egging them on... Dean can't bear the thought of the disappointment in John's and Ellen's eyes if he gives up, and Sam flatly refuses to prove Lucifer right; some days that's all that keeps them from giving up.
