x-x-x-x-x

"I'm sorry I thought you were, uh—"

"Hitting on you?"

"Yeah. And maybe kind of psycho at first. But seriously, Sam, you can't go around telling strangers your whacked-out ghost dreams. Didn't Dad teach you anything?"

"First, no Dad. Not our Dad, anyway. And I wasn't the one tripping on the anti-carb cleansing thing."

"I—"

"You do know there's a middle ground, right? Between fried cholesterol death and avoiding food altogether?"

"Of course I do! That wasn't the real me."

"Driving a Prius."

"Shut up, Sam."

"Oh, and next case? The library's all yours."

"I said shut up!"

Whee-- you're still awake! And fast to respond, to!

With the way today went, I didn't think I had any hope of finishing anything before midnight (or even getting out a celebratory announcement), but I squeaked in under the wire!

Happy Birthday! I hope the rest of the day was wonderful. :D

Yay for birthday drabbles! That's cute. Sounds like the Dean and Sam we used to have. Wish this season's boys could still tease each other that way.

*sigh* I miss them completely-- Sam, Dean, and Sam&Dean. It doesn't feel quite like them this season, and this kind of bicker-banter is just one of the many things I love about them and have mourned the absence of.

Hope this gave you some happy thoughts, even in the current season setting!

Oh just perfect! I love the banter between them, wish we saw more if it this season, I miss it.

Me too-- it's one of the things I loved most about S1, and I miss that kind of teasing. It's at its best, too, when both of the boys are right (and neither wants to admit it). ;)

Hee-hee! I not only want more of that "lightness," but the mocking is SO necessary considering all that went down. Including cayenne-pepper and syrup-tinged lemon-water. :0

So glad you enjoyed it! :D

At least we got a chance to see Dean being smart (and admitting it)-- not to mention slurping down those fancy coffee drinks he likes to mock. And Sam was patience personified, except for the lack of self-control in the oversharing department. :0

YES! if that could be the opening banter for the next epi i'd be so happy

Boy, I would love to see that kind of continuity-- AND humor-- where it isn't always the doom-and-gloom kind for a change!

Awwww, that's cute! They were so much fun in that ep)))

They were- so earnest and clueless, and they still found their way toward a modern-day superhero life all over again. :D

Re: awwww

Hahahaha! I know-- and yet, it makes perfect sense for someone who's oriented toward being practical and responsible, and so I really love that they went there. It was great seeing where Dean's personality traits could lead if he didn't have the baggage or influence (good or bad) that his childhood gave him. :D

Thank you!

Dean would've been so sick, going cold turkey like that!
He probably didn't start out that way, and his system might have thanked him for cutting down on the grease. Though if he started fiber-loading... ouch! And my god, that concoction was a thing of evil. :0

I was amazed seeing Dean doing a research in the last episode, but Dean owning a library... lol :D:D:D:D

I love it!

I loved that, because Dean clearly is smart (though the show sometimes forgets that). But in their regular world, I wonder if he finds it easier to let Sam do it most of the time and also whether-- since he isn't normally deskbound, as he was here-- he just gets too darn restless. :0

Great fic. Hee at Sam making fun of Dean for his cleansing diet thing. Loved Dean apologizing for thinking Sam was hitting on him.

Oh, how could he resist? That was nuts.

Loved Dean apologizing for thinking Sam was hitting on him.
I think he'd be so embarrassed over that once he came out of the AU haze, though I can understand why he thought so at the time. Total stranger keeps fixating on you in an elevator and will not stop looking at you and approaching you. o_O

Lovely snippet of brotherly teasing. I'd have loved to have seen this at the end of the episode! :)

halfshellvenus on March 29th, 2009 05:33 pm (UTC)

Hee-- me too! I miss the snarking and the lightheartedness, and there was so much to mock on both sides. :D

Lol, so many awesome jokes came from that ep! XD

It was fertile ground, wasn't it? Wish we'd seen how Sam lived in his off-hours, though he probably shared an apartment with a couple of guys that were almost as annoying as his work-customers!

From your keyboard to Kripke's ear! BUAHAHAHA! *snicker*

Lovely, and a wonderful break from all the brotherly angst and stuff. Thanks for the morning giggle! :-D

halfshellvenus on March 29th, 2009 05:39 pm (UTC)

Oh, I need a break from the angst, AND I need to enjoy them teasing each other over stuff that is legitimately weird and mockable and yet also harmless.

So glad to perk up your day! :D
