[sohotrightnow]

Title: unhealed but whole
Author: cidercupcakes/sohotrightnow
Characters/Pairings: John Winchester/Buffy Summers
Rating: NC-17
Words: ~4200
Notes: Originally written for kink_bingo, for the prompt "confined/caged". It was supposed to be about 600 words. Kind of got away from me. /o\ Title and verses throughout are from Gregory Djanikian's poem "Children's Hospital, Emergency Room". Immense gratitude to inlovewithnight for both cheerleading and beta-reading.
Warning: There's a dream sequence that strays into dub-/non-con territory.
Disclaimer: This transformative work uses characters borrowed from shows owned by Joss Whedon, Eric Kripke, and others. No profit (or, indeed, any money at all) is being made off of it.
Summary: ( John comes back from the dead. He is bound to someone who's made that trip before. )
