This is the sequel to Dog Eat Dog. Coyote and the Winchesters declare war against desert skinwalkers. Dean, Coyote, John and Sam encounter evil spirits, giant alligators, vamps, assorted gods and tricksters. NEW: Chapter 27 - back to the future.

Seven days ago Dean and Sam Winchester viewed the videotape that "kills you when you watch it." It's the Winchesters versus the little girl spook from The Ring.

Let me be no nearer/In death's dream kingdom/Let me also wear/Such deliberate disguises/Rat's coat, crowskin, crossed staves/In a field/Behaving as the wind behaves/No nearer--/Not that final meeting/In the twilight kingdom."

Set mid-season 3. Based on the prompt: The boys, birds, wetlands, hot summer day. Maybe mosquitoes.

Sam's under a spell. When it wears off, he discovers Dean's hurt and hasn't been letting on. Shocky!Dean, first aid in the Impala, a Sammy bitchout, and some angsty brotherly shmoop for good measure.

After a hunt gone south, Dean Winchester discovers that he is the human half of the Trickster God Coyote.

The New Orlean's job comes back to haunt Dean as he and Sam return to stop a series of murders, and end up discovering an evil they may not be able to defeat...with Dean's life in the balance.

Not all doors stay locked, and lightning often strikes twice. Sequel to If Belief Was Enough and grandsequel to And Fools Shine On. Complete.
