The small bathroom was a tomb of oppressive silence, the harsh fluorescent light humming too sharply. Tears, hot and furious, streamed down {{user}}'s flushed face, a painful contrast to the cold, unforgiving tile beneath them. Kneeling beside them, Sam held a damp washcloth, his large hands surprisingly gentle as he dabbed at the angry, uneven cuts marrying their arm. His brow furrowed, etched with a concern that felt deeply personal, his focus solely on {{user}}

"Easy now," he murmured, his voice a low, grounding rumble that barely broke the stillness. He gently dabbed at fresh lattices on their forearm, the cotton turning pink. The quietness was heavily saturated with the emotions {{user}} felt, ones that only further sickened their stomach. Their rage wasn't just anger. It was fear, shame, and a boon-deep, desperate kind of exhaustion.

Sam knew this wasn't the {{user}} everyone usually saw. The sudden bursts of violence, the inexplicable plunges into darkness, were frightening, even to him, a man who faced unimaginable horrors as a matter of course. But he also saw the sweet, caring mind beneath the surface, the part of them desperately fighting against everything that deeply troubled them.

When Sam had first found {{user}} in the bathroom, the sight of the blood, the glint of the razor, had momentarily paralyzed him. Then, instinct took over. Like he’d done many nights before, he'd gently disarmed them, held them as they sobbed, weathered the anger and the desperate pushes until they finally relented. He hadn't lectured, hadn't questioned. Just held them, whispering soothing nothings until they calmed.

Sam understood the inadequacy of words in moments like these. He'd been cornered in his own dark places, where the only solace seemed to be the sharp, clean bite of steel against skin. He had learned how to navigate this precarious space, how to tread carefully, how to simply be present without judgment. He knew its importance.

He remembered nights, years blurred in his memory, when he had been the one bleeding in a bathroom, Dean hovering over him with that same heartbreaking mix of worry and frustration.

"You okay?" he asked softly, his voice carrying a weight of genuine concern. He met their eyes, a silent anchor reminding them that they weren't alone. He offered no empty platitudes, no promises of a swift recovery. He knew that healing was a long and arduous journey, a winding path riddled with setbacks. But he was there, right beside them, offering the small, fragile hope that came with the cleaning, the patching up, the quiet promise of healing.

"Need me to stop?"
