47th Hunt [Accidental Video] There walks a lady we all know

[dudeimbatman]

[The camera flickers on and shows Dean sitting on the hood of the Impala. he's got a bottle of whiskey sitting next to him and a bundle of white roses sitting next to that. He's also holding a cassette tape still wrapped in plastic. His box of cassette tapes is sitting on his lap. He considers the tape for a very long time before he sticks it back in the box. He tosses the roses to the ground on top of a gravestone that isn't anyone he knows. He sighs, picks the whiskey bottle up and takes a sip. That's when he notices the video is on. He rolls his eyes and shuts the video off with a snort of disgust]

You can say no if you don't want to, Dean.

Re: voice

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

Nah, it's not that. I really am going to be shit for company. If you still want to have me over, I'll be there.

Mom died today. Twenty seven years ago.

I noticed the tape in your hands.

Re: voice

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

So what are we having for dinner?

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Dean?

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

Yeah?

[Avoidance? Why yes that would be Dean's MO]

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Can I... Is something wrong?

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

Nah. Nothing new anyway. It's the anniversary of Mom's death.

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Oh, Dean, I... it is that time again, isn't it? Is there anything I can do?

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

I'll be fine. Always am. I'm gonna drink and maybe grab something to eat. Might even get Menolly to play Mom's song. She's pretty good at it on her harp thing. Wanna meet up with me later? Could be be smashed.

Think there's enough in that bottle for two?

Re: [ Voice ]

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

Damn right there is. Long as you get over here soon.

[Oh yeah, he knows. While Dean may focus more on the 'mom died' part of this day, he never forgets that Jess did too. It was the second time in his life he's had to carry his baby brother out of a burning house. He takes a long pull off the whiskey bottle and passes it over to Sam without a word.]

[Detroit steel. They don't make them like they used to. it's a long time before Dean finally speaks. It seems like a good time to go down memory lane]

I don't remember a lot about mom. I know I used to let you think I did. Sometimes I think I made half of it all up so I'd have stories to tell you. She used to make sugar cookies though. And pie and she sang the Beatles while she baked.

Dean...[Really not sure what she can say, or if she should say anything.]

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

[Cue one Winchester attempting to act normal]

Yeah?

[mytechskeeper.livejournal.com]

[Not sure if he'll want to talk so best try another approach, one she knows has a better chance of working.]

If you're hungry, you can have some of the food I've saved from Halloween. [Better than you drinking on an empty stomach.]

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

[He appreciates what she's doing more than she'll probably ever know. Food does pique his interest though. He's sad. Not dead. The only time he hasn't ever really wanted to eat was when Famine was doing it's thing and the days Sam was dead.]

Yeah? What kind of food have you got?

[mytechskeeper.livejournal.com]

[Well in her mind sugar can help almost any situation, comfort food is essential to life.]

How about some spiced dark chocolate pumpkin cake? It works wonders at times.

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

Hey, I won't turn down cake.

Thanks, Tsubaki.
