Genre: Outsider POV
Length: Medium (Words: 5,020)
Author's Summary:
Karl Buckman had been driving a big rig since he was eighteen, and he’d never even had so much as a speeding ticket until now. For the life of him, he didn’t know how this could have happened, how things could have gone so horribly wrong that he’d have no memory of the accident at all, only of waking up on his knees in the wet grass, staring at the mangled wreck of a ’67 black Impala and the bloody bodies inside.
Review:
From the POV of the possessed truck driver in Season 1. He doesn't know demons are real or understand that he was possessed and he's devastated to have apparently caused this accident that injured the Winchesters. This fic really captures that. I particularly like how the author has Karl using idioms as if they were meaningless without realizing how close they are to literal truth. I also really, really like the twist at the end. This is a very sad, but touching fic.
