Summary:
The first petal fell on a hunt in Ohio.
Every petal that Dean coughed up after felt like salvation. He didn’t have to hide anymore, or even do the work of admitting the truth to himself. The flowers did that for him.
And they’d do it ‘til they killed him.
Or: Dean gets Hanahaki Disease after Cas’ final death in 15x18 “Despair.”
