[Response to THIS (WARNING: Major character death). Because apparently my Dean can’t let her Sam do anything without commenting on it. Go figure. Not binding on any other canon muse.] “We don’t know what we want, but we’re ready to bite somebody to get it.” This was—odd.
Once he died the second time, he didn’t really think he’d be the haunting spirit type. But this time around, he didn’t really think he was a—spirit. Because he wasn’t exactly bound to anywhere, and he didn’t exactly feel angry, he was just kind of—there.
As he said, this was kind of odd.
“So what am I supposed to be doing again?”
Tessa looked back at him with a smirk, before rolling her eyes. “You’re watching.”
They were both perched on the edge of Bobby’s couch, watching as the people moved through the house slowly. There weren’t many people—mostly Sam and Bobby with the baby on occasion, or the spare hunter or two coming by to express their condolences. It was a bit weird at first, until Dean figured out that he was actually dead, but there was a bit more zen to it, this time around. He was—surprisingly at peace with the whole deal. And he didn’t think that was quite of his own doing.
Then Tessa showed up.
“You know, I’ve never been all that good at watching stuff,” Dean said with a sigh, a brief smile crossing his face as he watched Bobby with his son. “I’ve always been more of an action kinda guy.”
