Yeap, this was awesome. I loved the tone of this. It was eerie in an old child's lullaby sort of way, like Ring Around the Rosie before it kind of lost it's meaning, if you know what I mean. I'm already a huge Alastair/Dean fan so I'll read just about anything with them but not all stories are able to get the creep factor so well. And you somehow managed to do that with this while also making the passage of time apparent. I really don't know how but I know I enjoyed reading it.

I was actually thinking of ring around the rosie when I wrote this! And then I looked up other creepy nursery rhymes and found these is an abundance of scary in those rhymes. I'm glad you liked it!

I really liked the visuals here, the fading text. It really added to the story and made it much creepier.

Thank you! It was kind of an idea I had, before I even came across this prompt, to do that at some point, and I liked the idea of using it to show Dean's humanity fading while he was in Hell. Glad it worked for you!
