1st Drink

[She's been here a few days. Castiel knows she's here. That girl who had helped her to the dugout and given her a little bit of help knew she was here, but had no idea who she was.

That didn't help.

She's got a bruise along her jaw and a scrape on her right cheek. And she's got a shot glass in her hand. There's a distinctive bottle close by, but she's not drinking it. It's too early for that. No matter how much she might want to.

Also, she knows her boys are here.]

I got the welcoming committee talk. Don't want to hear the rest of it.

[She rolls the shot glass along the table.]

I know there are folks from my world here. Appreciate it if they'd speak up.

[Another roll of the shot glass.]

If anyone's looking for a bartender, I ran my own saloon back in Nebraska and don't mind knocking heads together no matter how much more testosterone than brains they've got.

[And if you boys don't contact her, she will come find you. You really don't want that, do you?]

Yeah, well, John Winchester never 'intends' anything to go wrong. But it always does.

Fair point. [She still feels bad for that time she was strung out on coffee and no sleep with a homicidal vampire on her back. She called him a bad father.]

Still he's managed some here. If-- when he comes back.

You two were friends?

[A thoughtful pause.]

Once, John was just like family.

[A small fond smile.]

And someone had to take care of them boys. God knows they can't do it.

They really can't. [Though you know, trying here at least. Not that she's talked to this Dean.]

But I think having Mary helps. Somewhat.

I never met Mary.

Have to see if I can look her up.

You probably can. We all have our own voicemails and things on these.

I was spared the trouble.

[She just looks tired now.]

Thanks for the help.

Oh, that's good.

It isn't a problem. I'm sure you've had plenty of offers, but if you need anything, don't hesitate. Newcomers tend to stick together here, and I've been here awhile now.

Just need a way home and to get back to my daughter.

[So they can die together.]

We'll keep trying. A lot of people want that. As much as there are some people who don't.
