[ Sam has his suspicions, of course, but they're overridden by the knowledge that he knows this Dean will be motivated to act sooner rather than later. ]
[ This isn't exactly what Sam had planned...but it's not an unreasonable request. He still takes a while to respond. ]
I'll meet you at the library.
[ It says two things: one, Sam is willing to see him in person, but most of all that he doesn't feel like telling Dean where he actually is. Not yet. The library is a fairly neutral location and one that's stereotypical of Sam to hole up in, anyway. Plus it's safer inside considering everything going on beyond their family Heaven vs. Hell drama. ]
[ dean doesn't bother with a reply, just heads for the library. there's urgency in his steps, a need to get there, to sam, as soon as he possibly can. with michael and lucifer both in this place, with everything going to shit, he needs to see sam, see him be alright, and to protect him. ]
Sam?
[ is his greeting once he's at the library, stepping into the quiet, large room filled with bookcases. ]
[ Sam is standing beside one of the bookcases, knowing he needs to wait but unable to completely ignore the rows of old spines facing him. He's running his fingers down the edge of a peeling cover before he hears Dean's voice.
Sam looks up, wary for a moment, but knows he instigated this. He's prepared this time. ]
[ when he sees sam, dean stops a little ways from him, knowing it better to keep his distance despite how he wants to check up on his brother. it doesn't stop him from giving him a long look, like he's searching for any visible wounds. ]
[ it would have sent him right after lucifer, and it would have kept sam safe. why his brother is so stupid that he can't see that is beyond dean, really. ]
I can't kill him if I don't know where he is, Sam. Or if you end up... doing something stupid.

[ No real way to hide that... ]
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 08:13 am (UTC)What the fuck Sam
I told you to stay the hell away from him
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 08:17 am (UTC)[ Some random guy on the train platform. Although it's a bit more complicated than that. Sam inhales sharply before typing his next message. ]
I had a vision.
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 08:25 am (UTC)Of what?
Where the hell are you?
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 08:29 am (UTC)[ Blatantly ignoring the second question ATM. ]
I saw you shoot him.
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 08:32 am (UTC)Where the fuck are you Sam?
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 08:35 am (UTC)He's not here. I don't know where he is.
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 07:58 pm (UTC)If we're going to talk about this, I want to see you.
text;
Date: 2013-11-30 08:17 pm (UTC)I'll meet you at the library.

Dean.
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 04:33 am (UTC)When did you talk to him? Where?
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 04:50 am (UTC)On the platform about a week ago.
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 04:54 am (UTC)[ he sounds upset, angry (but then, that's always), like he can't understand why sam hadn't come to him earlier with this. ]
After everything, why didn't you--
[ goddamn it, sam. ]
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 04:58 am (UTC)I figured Castiel would say something.
[ It's not an excuse. But Sam wanted to separate himself from it. At least for a while. ]
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 05:03 am (UTC)Which one? And he didn't, you should have.
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 05:07 am (UTC)Does it matter? [ He holds both his hands out, palms open. ] It was my choice. I didn't--
[ Don't be dumb, Sam... ]
--...I figured it'd just send you off after him.
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 07:53 am (UTC)I can't kill him if I don't know where he is, Sam. Or if you end up... doing something stupid.
[ like saying yes for some reason. ]
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 08:08 am (UTC)[ That's really what the question is. Because he isn't sending Dean on a suicide mission. ]
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 08:12 am (UTC)[ look, not lying for once!! but he has to try, over and over again until it's permanent. ]
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 08:17 am (UTC)[ Because despite what you want to think, Dean, you're not in this alone. ]
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 08:21 am (UTC)[ nope!! he's doing this alone, like he should have back in his own world. ]
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 08:24 am (UTC)[ He's the vessel. He doesn't have much of a choice. Sam shakes his head. ]
I don't want any of this anymore than you do, Dean.
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 08:26 am (UTC)[ that's all he's asking. that sam stay hidden and safe for however long it takes dean to track down michael, to say yes. ]
If you do that, this'll be over faster.
action;
Date: 2013-12-01 08:30 am (UTC)[ Sam asks earnestly, taking another step closer. ]
Tell me--where is safe?
