A Whiff of Sulpher by Dira Sudis (PG)
Fandom: DEAD ZONE
Pairing: Potential Johnny/Walt

Why this must be read:
This ficlet packs a delicious punch, as cigarettes become the metaphor for the ever-blurring line between Johnny and the people he touches.
He was a biology teacher, for God's sake, he showed that blackened lung to hundreds of kids before he became a car accident statistic--but now every time he smells a lit match, he gets the craving, remembers the way it felt, the way a cigarette fit between his fingers, between his lips, the sweet (foul) taste of smoke, the (choking) way it filled his lungs.
