Prompt: Supernatural, Gabriel/Michael, Mystery Spot was not about Sam. It was about Gabriel trying to kill Dean in order to make a fucking point and Michael reviving him every goddammed morning.
"Mikey!" Gabriel yells. "For Father's sake, you douchenozzle, what the fuck are you doing?"
"Dean has a purpose, brother," Michael says solemnly, in that some tone Gabriel remembers from Heaven. He despised it then, too.
"And that's why I'm trying to get rid of him!" Gabriel hissed. "Don't you see? With him gone, you won't have a vessel and the world won't end."
Michael's giving him the goddamned sad-eyes. Gabriel loathes the sad-eyes. "Without Dean, Sam won't find redemption," Michael tells him gently. "Without Sam's redemption, Lucifer will never come home to us."
Gabriel sighs. "Mikey," he replies, equally soft, "Lucifer's gone. He's been gone a long time."
"But so were you!" Michael says. "And you came back."
Gabriel slumps down. "I'm still killing Dean tomorrow," he mutters.
"And I will still revive him," Michael says.
