Fourth Floor Common Room, Sunday Morning

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean figured he'd spent enough time hiding holed up in his room and besides it hadn't worked very well anyway. So he was in the kitchen cooking breakfast, idly wondering if his brother's food radar would work from a different floor with no advanced warning.

He was sure other people's food radar would work though so he was cooking in quantity.

[ooc: open, now with free food.]

Looking slightly worse for wear, Seely stumbled into the common room. "Morning."

"Hey," Dean said, waving the hand that didn't have the spatula in it. "Rough night?"

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Not exactly," Seely replied, rubbing his eyes. "More like rough wake-up."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean grinned. "So good night?"

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

Seely laughed. "I wish. No, I met English's little brother, and figured he'd know a few things English wouldn't want spread."

"Huh. He probably does, but if he's got any family loyalty at all, he wouldn't share," Dean pointed out. "Least I know Sammy wouldn't."

"The really bad stuff no," Seely agreed. "But for sheer embarrasment? Nothing beats a little brother."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"And nothing gets a little brother beaten faster," Dean replied with a grin. "How 'bout you? Any siblings?"

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"True enough," Seely snickered. "Just my brother, Jared, good kid, when he's not being a brat."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"I think that's programmed in when they're born. The older brother gets the responsibility, the younger one gets the being a brat."

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Tell me about it," Seely said, shaking his head. "'Seely, watch out for Jared', 'Seely, set a good example for him', 'Seely, if you'd been looking out for your brother properly he wouldn't have stabbed you'."

Kira sighed as she stepped into the common room. "I give. Can anyone tell me where Conner McKnight's room is?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Well, they might have a point with that last one. Any of your family come visiting this weekend?"

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"It was his idea to use Grandpa's knives to play soldier with," Seely replied, then sighed. "No, Dad was too busy, and he thinks I'm too bad an influence for Jared to come alone."

Dean frowned. "I'm not sure. I think it's on one of the lower floors though." He took a look at her and made a guess. "You his sister?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Bummer. I bet you miss them."

[shes-a-screamer.livejournal.com]

Kira shook her head. "Friend from back home," she said. She smiled at Dean. "My name's Kira."

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. Well, I don't miss Dad's lectures, but everything else."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Conner's got pretty friends. I'm Dean," Dean replied, giving her his most charming smile. "You want some breakfast?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Lectures are just a Dad thing, I think. Though, granted, my Dad usually has a good reason for his." He grinned briefly. "I wouldn't mention the knife thing to him or you'll get to hear 'lecture #16: Why weapons are not toys'."

[shes-a-screamer.livejournal.com]

"Hey, I'm always up for free food," Kira said. "Nice to meet you, Dean."

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

Seely grimaced. "We got that one from Dad and Grandpa, and I was grounded for the rest of the summer."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"We were always moving so grounding never worked that well with us. Dad's punishments have always tended to be more... practical. Pushups, running, cleaning all the guns, that sorta thing. Though really the worst is always just the look he gives when he's disappointed in you."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Likewise." He got her a plate and dished her up some of everything. "Here you go," he said with a smile, handing it to her.

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"I know that look," Seely replied. "Last few months before coming here, that's all he gave me."
