Prompt: Scott Carey/Azazel, Scott is miserable, but when the yellow-eyed man shows up in his dreams everything promises to change.


Scott had been the weird loner, subject to teachers' looks and bullies' glee. Mom left because he wasn't good enough, and Dad had always complained that he'd expected better of Scott.

He graduated high-school and tried college for awhile. Not long after his twentieth birthday, though, there was an accident where Scott shoved someone down the stairs. He didn't mean to, and she didn't remember that he had, but Scott worried and his grades suffered, and so he dropped out and went home to Dad.

Dad was disappointed, but he wasn't surprised.

So Scott got a job at a nearby grocery store and began sketching, just for something to keep his hands busy, to keep his mind from thinking about how his life had dead-ended. Dad even made him go see a shrink along with paying rent, and Scott did. A useless gesture, of course.

When the yellow-eyed man showed up in his dreams and promised him the world, when power flowed from his fingertips, Scott took a deep breath and smiled.

He was someone going somewhere. The yellow-eyed man said so.
