There's a flash of light that breaks the hold the memories have on Dean.
He's immobilized for a moment as he's still reeling from the sudden onslaught of long-repressed emotions.
In one night he's been stripped bare for multiple strangers to see. He isn't sure of how to deal with feeling this exposed. He isn't sure how to deal with anything that's happened, or that he's remembered happening.
"Thanks, kid," he chokes out. "You did good." Dean may be at the end of his rope, emotionally, but he wants to make sure Cato knows how much he's done and how well he's done it.
Dean clumsily pushes himself to his feet. That last memory is the one that finally pushed him from running on adrenaline to completely exhausted.
But they have to keep moving. He has a feeling that Cato wouldn't leave him behind even if Dean asked.
"C'mon, we gotta keep moving."
One foot in front of the other. Dean has plenty of practice pushing past his absolute limits like this. It isn't easy, but he can do it. He just needs to keep moving.
