This is awesome. It reminds me of your Connor piece because the way you make each story fit the character is so unexpected. I never quite get how the story fits at first, then there's a *click* where I suddenly understand it, and when the click happens there's this amazing character insight you wouldn't've gotten otherwise.
I especially love Wesley's, the different ways the story fits. Love the image of Adam finding Abel's head. The first one was just heartbreaking, esp. this line: He finally let the others hold Connor when his mouth began to salivate every time the baby cried. Gunn's was particularly unexpected, and I loved this bit: hell yeah you're gonna have a change of heart.
The last one made me think a lot. I had to look up the story again. It seems to work in several different ways, each of which is powerful.
I really loved the art work you linked, too. It adds a lot to the story.
One little typo you might want to fix: Had Cain left a nightmare in his father's tent him to find? I think you mean for him to find...
