23. Wishing on a two-way radio

[He almost doesn't log on when he realizes what's going on. Almost. But he's never been good about refraining from doing things when it comes to finding out what's going on. And he's just hoping like hell that his dad really is okay like Liam told him, that Melissa's doing well, that things in Beacon Hills aren't as screwed up as they usually are. He hopes.]

So, anyone out there from Beacon Hills listening on this thing?

[Private to Jean]

I have a question for you. [Actually it's more like a possible request. He's not entirely sure yet.]

[Dean waits that moment, mulling over his own thoughts; he genuinely wants to help Stiles however he can, but it's with no small amount of visible relief that he latches onto what is indeed a much safer subject for him, too. He doesn't like thinking too much about Lisa and Ben.

He doesn't like feeling like a shitheel even though he's doing exactly what everyone seems to want.

Of course, the realization that Stiles' inmate has not only the same brother he does but the same car he does makes Dean groan with a tangentially related, horrible thought.

Oh no. Not my baby. Don't tell me he fucked her up, too.

No one loves that car as much as I do!

[This is a rote protest, not as savage as he would actually get if someone were actively in danger of hurting the car in question, but sincere nonetheless. He's taken so much crap over his relationship with the Impala that he's not even bothered anymore, if ever he was.

But even he has to admit that at the end of the day, if there's anyone that does, it's probably... well. Himself.

Dean shakes his head.

Alright, fine. When you're right, you're right. But don't get too cocky over there.

And a liar now, too. God, I'm a bad influence on you.

[This is the version of Dean that can handle being laughed at, though, even if he would probably argue at least a little about the similarities between the versions of him. He knows something's broken there, something vital, maybe something irreparable; he hopes not, for Stiles' sake, for Sam's, for the world's, but. He was never much of an optimist, even when he could still hang his hopes on blind faith.

He's smirking.

I'm glad, though. I am. And proud. I mean it's weird, don't get me wrong, I haven't forgotten that. But I am.

[Dean's smiles always came easily; now it's almost thoughtless how quickly he does because yeah, things are good. Everything's going good. Some days he still wakes up and wonders if this is really his life now, if he really gets to have this.

It's not perfect. But it's so much better than it might have been, and so much better than it was. The hunter snorts.

Alright, alright, enough with the chick flicks. We're both awesome and we're gonna continue being awesome. You're gonna go talk to your people, and I'm gonna find someone else to bother for a while.

And don't do anything I wouldn't do. Which still leaves you with a literal fuckton of options, so don't screw it up, you hear, Slick?

One or two things. Mostly other Meatloaf lyrics, come to think of it.

[Don't think he hasn't. Dean and Meatloaf have a similar level of cheese and drama, okay, and he can get away with mixing them up with the rest of his hair band music if he's had enough to drink.

Shut up.

Attaboy. Catch you around.
