Fourth floor common room, Saturday afternoon

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Sometimes the best way to spend a day was sacked out on a couch with all kinds of junk food watching really bad horror movies. Dean had decided that today was such a day. So here he was ensconced on the couch in the common room surrounded by lots of snacks that were really bad for him, watching a movie on Sci Fi that was so bad he was halfway certain that forcing someone to watch it would be labelled a crime against humanity.

Just what he'd wanted.

"Disgusting is how fake it looks," Dean said.

"That..." Angela nodded, finally tearing her eyes away from the screen. "Really," she agreed.

"What is having way too much free time for if not mocking bad movies, right?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"As good a way as any to pass the time," Dean agreed. "So, did you have a good Christmas?"

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Not bad at all," she said, nodding cheerfully. "Quiet, since I was here and there aren't that many people about. Still, made the most of my mistletoe and the excuse for lots of food."

"Did you?" she returned.

"Yeah. Spent the day down in town with the family. Was nice."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Oh, that is nice," Angela said, smiling at him. "Get anything good?" she asked.

"Got a new tattoo," Dean said. It hadn't exactly been a Christmas gift but hey it was something good.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Oooh, where?" Angela asked with a broad grin. Come on, tattoos were hot.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean pulled down his shirt to show off the tattoo (http://pics.livejournal.com/saltandammo/pic/00050wck) over his heart.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Veery nice," she said approvingly as she looked at it. "What made you pick that one?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"It's for protection," Dean explained. "Combination of traditional occult symbols and Vkandis protection runes."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Tattoo, and you know what it means." She smiled at him. That gained points, if you couldn't guess. "Very good."

"Well protection's kinda important in hunting," Dean said. "This way I can't lose it when I might need it the most."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"You need empowered runes on your chest to hunt?" she asked curiously. As far as she was concerned, hunting involved maybe shooting deer, or something similar. Not that it was something she'd done, or was in any way interested in.

"It's protection," Dean explained. "Anti-possession. Keeps the demons out."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Angela slowly nodded once, still looking a little bemused.

"What exactly do you hunt?" Best to get these things clarified.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Demons, ghosts, things that go bump in the night, that sorta thing."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Oh." After a few months here, that really shouldn't surprise her. "Different," she commented after a beat.

She paused to let that sink in, just a moment. "So when you say fake," she guessed gesturing at the movie. "You know what you're talking about."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Pretty much, yeah," Dean said. "Though most horror movies rarely get things really right."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"I don't know if that's comforting or not," Angela said after a second.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Well it makes movies more fun than work so I guess that's a good thing. From my point of view anyway."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"It takes much for things to be better than your work?" Angela asked. She couldn't imagine it did. Dealing with demons was something she would hardly consider any shade of fun.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Depends," Dean said. "Yeah, sometimes it sucks, but there's something to be said for saving people and taking down evil sons of bitches."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"My favourite fake sibling, the hero," she teased, smiling at him.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"I do my best," Dean said modestly.
