dollarformyname's super-awesome prompt at the latest comment-fic meme: "When Death re-souls Sam it doesn't quite stick. Every once in a while his soul slips free (maybe after a seizure?), his body walking around being a dick and not sleeping, while he gets to do the vengeful spirit gig for a couple of hours/days/weeks—it can vary—though he's not so much vengeful as disoriented and crazy, given the wall doesn't extend to his spirit form. So you have Dean, who sees all this redrum-on-the-mirrors chaos randomly breaking out around them, and Sam looking unsettlingly determined to banish the completely anonymous—“its identity is really not important, Dean, promise”—spirit that's latched onto him for no apparent reason, while trying to look all souled and innocent and kind of sucking at it. Whether or not Dean figures it out is up to the author. As is the winner."
So I went and made this 1000x angstier and ended up hurting/traumatising Dean just as much as Sam. IDK. But I enjoyed writing Robo!Sam so much, I'm not regretting anything.
( The first time he wakes up, he is thankful. )
