Summary: E/O CHALLENGE. Drabble word: forever. With great power comes the desire to just not give a damn about anyone ever again, a condition Demon Dean knows about all too well.

A/N: Drabble title taken from this quote by Christopher Marlowe, from Edward the Second:

What are kings, when regiment is gone,
But perfect shadows in a sunshine day?

A/N the 2nd: It's been fun being a member of this community for the past 6 years. Thank you, Enkindu and Onyx! I look forward to participating in the new one.

POV: Demon Dean


I didn't go to Sam's funeral. Hey, I let him live after I put him in that wheelchair 60 years ago. He got off light.

Cas showed up with his usual guilt trip. Tried to appeal to my better nature. Lucky for me I don't have one anymore. Dumb sonofabitch looked sad. Said I was still the Righteous Man now and forever, no matter what.

He pulled out his angel sword. I had the First Blade.

No regrets, no mercy. Should have ganked him years ago. I've been busy.

Crowley and his mom want Hell back? I don't think so.
