Summary: When Dean’s deal comes due, he dies and gets stuck in the veil. Sam wants to fix things, get Dean back into his body, but Dean doesn’t agree. With the help of a psychic friend, the Winchesters begin a new phase in their lives (or deaths, in Dean’s case). But Sam has a nagging feeling that something isn’t right. And what does that say about them that learning to live with (and love) Dean in his new form isn’t even the weirdest thing that Sam’s ever done?
