That just makes Gabriel laugh, shaking his head. "That's what he gets for touching the thing, I guess. Who's bright idea was it to mess around with that thing, anyway?"

Dean's grin fades a little and he becomes more interested in his coffee.

"Lady by name of Bela Talbot was tryin' to get her hands on it," he says. "She liked to steal supernatural items and sell 'em to the highest bidder. We didn't know what it was when we grabbed it. She hired two thugs to break into Dad's storage locker and steal the damn thing, but things went south, we tracked them down and wham. Sam gets the curse but good. Almost got killed by a couple of rogue hunters who thought he was an abomination, yada yada yada."

In other words, just a usual day for the Winchester brothers.

[lotsoflaughs]

"Just another exciting couple of days in the life of the Winchesters," Gabriel notes sardonically. "I assume you've moved whatever crap he's had stored to make sure it can't happen again?"

"When we got the bunker," Dean says. "We had put his stuff in another storage place, but c'mon. That's got nothin' on what the dudes at MoL headquarters have goin' on when it comes to wards. And hey, no one else's been cursed since then."

Give them some credit, Gabriel.

"Someplace that you kind of need to know exactly where you're going to even find it, is a good spot to keep that sort of thing, yep." There's a reason for saying that he assumed they did the smart thing.

"Yeah. Speaking of. I should probably be gettin' back to Sam by now," he says. Because honestly, Sam knew he never stays with one night stands this long, and it could start raising suspicion. "Can't leave him to handle all the work by himself, right? Besides, he might try to go out and take care of the coven himself."

[lotsoflaughs]

"If he tries it, you won't have a brother for very long." One hunter against this group? Yeah, no. "Finish your food and I'll take you back."

[impala_is_my_baby]

"Aye, aye, Captain," Dean says, and he finishes off his sandwich with a few more bites, then downs the rest of the coffee and lets out a satisfied sigh. Nothing like coffee and grease after a night of drinking and hot sex. "Ready when you are."

[lotsoflaughs]

Dean eating gives Gabriel time to finish his own food before snapping away the mess. Sure, he probably should have done it after Dean was gone, but whatever.

"All right, time to brace yourself for the trip back," he says as he stands and walks over to Dean to rest a hand on his shoulder. Then they're back in the parking lot by the Impala.

Fortunately, the warning does give Dean time to close his eyes before the world turns inside out and upside down. Then they are back where they started, and he shifts a little awkwardly, looking at Gabriel.

What the hell do people say in this kind of situation, anyway? Thanks for the lay, catch you later? He's not expected to give the guy a goodbye kiss, is he? That's a little schmultzy, right? He grasps at something, anything to say.

"So. Uh. Guess I'll catch you later, huh?"

[lotsoflaughs]

"Yeah. Maybe we can do this again sometime. Don't worry, I expect for it to be for at least a few months down the line if it does happen," he says, grinning up at Dean as he lets his hand drop to his side. "May as well give your brother visible confirmation that you've survived the night. See ya."

And he's out.

[impala_is_my_baby]

"Later."

Well, that's that, then. And Dean isn't going to be offended or miffed that he's the one being treated like the one night stand here, because he doesn't care. Seriously.

For now, though, he's got a seriously pissed off coven to deal with, and that's what he's going to focus on as he goes into the motel to give Sam the new information and start dealing with said coven.
