LBJ Campfire, Thursday Night

[likethegun]

Sometime during the day, Sam had come to a sad realization - he hadn't had nearly enough s'mores for the amount of time they'd been out at the cabins. When the evening rolled around and the sun finally went down, he lit the cabin's campfire and set himself up with all the necessary supplies, to cook for himself and for anyone else who sat down.

It wasn't long before he figured out that his marshmallow roasting stick was also good for keeping tiny moose away from the fire. It was kind of amazing how this place still found ways to weird him out, even after all this time.

"Um. Kind of?" Sam said. Dean had been trying to get him to be more open about things, and this seemed like a good time to try that. "Do you believe in ghosts, and things like that?"

"It rained glitter last week," Jennifer said. "And I somehow traveled in time when I got here. There's a lot I can believe in right now."

Sam laughed. "Open-mindedness. That's good to have here, seriously," he said. "My family hunts ghosts, and demons, and other evil spirits and things that try to hurt people. We don't do it as much these days, since we're kind of settled here, but it's still the family business. I'm hoping to do something else instead."

"That sounds pretty scary," Jennifer said. "Law work might even sound boring after that."

"It is scary sometimes, and dangerous," Sam said. "And it's not that I don't think it's a necessary job, you know? I just think I'd be better off with something normal. I don't think law work would be boring, not if it was for something important."

Jennifer nodded. "That's what I think too," she said. "How can it be boring if you're doing your part to make the world better?"

"It's not a job for everyone, but I think it's still really important." Sam smiled at her. "Do you have lawyers in your family, or are you kind of pulling this out of the blue too?"

"Not quite," Jennifer said. "I have some reasons, but... you don't want to hear them, I think. Serious stuff."

[likethegun]

"I'm sorry," Sam said sympathetically. "You don't have to talk about it. But I'm sure your reasons are very good."

Jennifer nodded. "It's the sort of thing you wait to share," she said.

"Lucky for you, I'm a patient person," Sam replied.

"Very lucky," Jennifer said. "Thanks for understanding."
