This was written for the 2011 Sam centric h/c challenge, for quickreaver's awesome prompt: Sam has a big, whopping hallucination where he finds himself sharing a drink with his other selves, discussing life, the universe, and everything. But Soulless is a mean drunk and starts picking fights with the world, most especially his Hell self. Sam finds himself in the middle of the fracas, and between Soulless’ cold brutality and Hell’s first-hand knowledge of torture. It’s a mess.

This story - well, it deviates a lot from the prompt. Like, wildly. And it got really, really dark. But I hope the gist of what you wanted remains. *crosses fingers*

Warnings: General SPOILERS for s7, blood, violence, abuse, mentions of non-con, fucked-up-ness, torture, an overdose of pronouns (you can see the kind of difficulty I'd have with those, dealing with multiple Sams. I hope the solution I found isn't too jarring/annoying), weirdness, metaphor-abuse, present-tense.

( The world ends every time Sam falls asleep. )
