Virgo Campfire, late Friday evening

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

After hanging out at the luau for a while, Dean made his way back to his cabin and started a fire in its firepit. He lounged beside it, occasionally poking it with a stick, watching the flames crackle and burn, inbetween watching the starry sky above.

All in all, he was feeling rather mellow and just generally content with his life and being in this moment.

"Nah," Dean said. "The double thing happens enough that everyone's kinda used to it. And most people can tell us apart after the initial few meetings."

She looked between them a few times. "I think I can see it," she nodded. "Even with twins, there are usually a few characteristics you can determine. Slightly wider nose or ears just a smidge lower. And one's personality changes the face rather a lot, as well."

"And I have better hair," Dean pointed out.

She looked between the two of them again, considering, and laughed. "Is this a point of contention between you?" she teased. "I should hate to enter a war unknowingly."

"He's slightly delusional about it, yeah," Dean said, giving a fond look in Alec's direction.

"We should let him keep his delusions, then," she nodded with fake solemnity. "It doesn't do to have such things ripped from one abruptly."

"Exactly," Dean said, grinning at her. "So how are things going for you now that you've been here a week?"

Alice had to consider that; a week in Fandom, five days in Rutledge, eight years in a limbo state inbetween. Still adjusting to all of it.

"I think ... I could like it here very much," she said, a hesitant smile flickering on her lips. "I've found a job at a music store, and all of my classes seem useful and enjoyable. People here ... don't seem to find me unusual, the way they do at home. Or if they do, they're less inclined to stare, which makes it less intimidating, I suppose."

"Pretty much everyone here is unusal in one way or another," Dean said. "You'd only stand out if you were perfectly normal."

"That's a reassuring thought," she laughed. "For I am never in danger of being perfectly normal."

"Me neither," Dean agreed cheerfully.
