Title: Out of Sight, Out of Mind?
Author: eschatologies
Rating: PG-13 (Dean!whump, a bit of blood)
Fandom: SPN, gen, slight AU (Sam & Deaf!Dean, season one)
Word Count: 3700ish
Summary: This was written for neonchica's prompt at the fifth Dean-focused h/c comment-fic meme at hoodie_time:

The boys are on a hunt and end up separated - not by distance, but by access (say a wall or a cave in or whatever). Dean is hurt bad, and Sam can hear him, but he can't get to him & he's unable to call for help. I want the angst & the hurt factor as Dean gets worse and worse (goes into seizures, breathing lessens, pain increases - whatever) & all he wants is for Sam to get him the hell out of there!

Uhm, this went in a random direction. This is the first time I've tried writing from both Sam and Dean's perspectives, all rolled into one. So...tada. I hope it fulfills your prompt, neonchica. And so you know, Dean went deaf sometime during high school.

Enjoy!

The lighting is shit to begin with, clouds rolling in overhead that quickly dim the Wyoming woods, but its not like that would be something that could stop Dean Winchester, Man on a Mission.

Nevertheless, Sam points it out again, and Dean huffs in annoyance.
