The Perk, Saturday afternoon

Dean had spent a fairly quiet Christmas with his family, glad as always to be back in Fandom for a visit. There was still a part of him that kind of boggled that the Winchesters were now having fairly normal holiday celebrations, the occasional Fandom weirdness aside, but he wasn't about to look a gift horse in the mouth. (Which had become disturbingly literal the morning before when he was helping to put together Gracie's new rocking horse.)

Anyhow, the day had went amazingly well, but now it was the day after Christmas and Dean felt the need to check up on his little brother, so he dragged Sammy away from the house and to the Perk for some coffee and friendly brotherly probing. (Not dirty, no matter what Castiel's online friends thought!)

He ordered their drinks -- some weirdly named concotion for Sammy that had taken longer to order than it had taken to pour Dean's own black coffee, then took them over to the table where Sammy was already waiting for him.

"So," he began as he sat down, shoving Sammy's drink across the table to him, "anything new I should know about?"

[open for all your coffeehouse visiting or Winchester bothering needs :)]

"All my applications have been sent out, but I won't be hearing back from anyone until February or March," Sam said. "Once I find out if I got accepted anywhere, then I can decide what I want to do."

"You never know. There's other people who are as smart as I am out there." Not many, but still enough to make him worry a little. "And I have to make sure I can get scholarships too, besides deciding if I even want to go."

"Really?" Sam said with a hint of a smile. "I figured you'd still try to talk me out of it."

That had been when Peter was alive, before Sam had lost a good part of his future, and made himself even more of a freak than he'd been before. But still, the desire to have a normal life was in him. "I think it'll make me happy," Sam said. "Hunting just isn't in my blood like it's in yours."

"If it hasn't happened yet, I doubt it will later," Sam said. "I mean, if you ever need me, I'll help, but I just can't see doing it all the time like you and Alec." Hunting down Sylar was totally different than hunting ghosts, of course.
likethegun: (i'm smug and satisfied)

"I won't get rusty, I promise," Sam said. "I mean, I can't let Alec be the only one to have your back."

"I'm okay," Sam said with a shrug. "The holiday's sucked a little more than I expected though."

"It's gotten a little better though. Thinking about Peter doesn't hurt as much," Sam said. "But Sylar's still out there. Sometimes I think it won't stop hurting until he's gone."
likethegun: (i'm questioning your seriousness)

"I didn't say I was going to track him down," Sam said quickly. There was no way he was letting Sylar anywhere near Dean. "I just mentioned it, you know, in general."
likethegun: (i'm looking down at myself)

"I just wish he was dead, that's all," Sam said, unable to keep a little sharpness out of his voice. "He deserves it more than anyone else."

"I'm not!" Sam said defensively, although he realized that arguing with Dean wasn't going to get anywhere. "If I decide to go after him, I'll let you know," he lied, hoping Dean would buy it.

"I just don't want you to get hurt," Sam said, a little quieter. "I know you're a big, bad hunter, but Sylar's extremely powerful." Sam paused for a moment. "I'm not helping my argument, am I?"
