I don't mean a funeral pyre, just a torching of bones like when on a ghost hunt, preventing the spirit from coming back and haunting your ass.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Also, Roy and Walt weren't originally planning to kill Dean, were they? IIRC, they only shot him because he recognized them despite the ski masks.

SamandDean are a pair not to be broken apart. So there needs to be another in the mix. SamandDean, Castiel, and ???
Sir, perhaps?

Well, the boys' bodies were still pretty fresh. It's gonna take some work to get down to the bones to torch them at that stage of the game.

Because books.

Ooooh, Sir. Oh yes.
Anne, I think you're right. Hmmm. Still, they were pretty dumb. You don't kill Dean's brother and leave him walking around to find you.

I don't think salting and burning would have helped. Anna's plan was much more drastic than that.
I think even Anna's attempt was doomed to failure. The only feasible obstacle I can think of to prevent Lucifer from raising Sam from the dead as needed would be if Sam's soul were safely beyond his reach in Heaven. With Michael working toward the big showdown too, that option evaporated.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Off topic: totally cute I don't know what.

it's asking me to log in, ita.
As for Walt and Roy, I doubt they knew about such things like Lucifer/God/whomever bringing the boys back until they said Yes. They wouldn't know about or being able to implement scattering of atoms. I doubt they even knew about the whole "vessel for Lucifer" thing. Just that Sam had started the Apocalypse, and he had to pay. So, as joe schmoe huntersn who know about ghosts, I was just thinking they'd want to prevent that with the men they just murdered. Everything else I think is way beyond Roy and Walt's ken.

if Sam's soul were safely beyond his reach in Heaven
If a crossroads demon can take Sam (or Samuel) back out of Heaven, Lucifer can probably do it.
Good god, how only Wednesday? I need my shit.

I feel like spending the next two days trying to make Sam and Dean out of clay now. I probably won't, but I really really want to.
