7x12 "Time After Time" Missing scene
Title: A time travelers' guide to arcane knowledge.
Rating: PG-13 (Curse words. Bad Dean.)
Pairings: None, really, unless you have your slash goggles on.
Spoilers: Season 5, Season 6, Season 7 episode 12.
Summary: Dean was surprised Time Travel wasn't more heavily abused, really. A 7x12 "Time After Time" Missing scene.
AN: Will probably be Jossed soonlike, but since I'm still waiting for a new episode to do so, how about a little drabble of hope? God knows there's not enough of it in the show.
It was in the quiet of writing the letter to Sam that the realization that Dean was in the past, and what it meant, really sunk in. He idly wondered if he should write another letter detailing the whole apocalypse(s) and send it to the himself before Cold Oaks. Possibly hundreds of letters, to everyone he knew. He thought hard about it, before discarding the thought. It would probably rip a hole in the space-time continuum, get Fate all pissed at him, or something. Still, not being able to effect his own past, and he had certainly tried with Mom, left other possibilities open. Colt had sent those Phoenix Ashes that had arrived right as they got back from the Wild West. Was there anything they could use, that they needed, that was available to him now?
Dean looked up from the old fashioned writing desk, staring blankly at the mishmash of clothes, fabric, hunting paraphernalia, spell ingredients, and books that he could see in the back room of Ezra Moore, Bobby's female 1944 counterpart. Him and Sam, they didn't really need any of those things though, and even if they did, they could more easily get them in their own time, not the when that Dean was stuck in. What they needed was information. Things like "What is up with that spot of land in the middle of nowhere?" and "What is the leviathans' endgame?" or, hell, even just information about the leviathans in general. Sadly, that too was only available in the present. The leviathans had never before walked the Earth, leaving a pretty short list of beings that knew diddlysquat about-.
Dean froze. He. Was in. The PAST. Death probably wasn't pissed off at him at this point, except by his very living existence. Possibly... but no. It was Death's sucky advice that left Cas negative souls but plus leviathans, which finally killed him for good.
Gabriel. Gabriel was still alive in this time. Still alive and hiding from his dick brothers. Gabriel gave his life for them, one of the few Angels who would support humanity over Heaven or Hell. Gabriel was one of the first Four, he should know something, anything about leviathans. And didn't he read somewhere about Gabriel and Michael being the ones to slay the Leviathan at the end of the world? Dean was reaching, and he knew it, seeing as how the Leviathan in the legends and the leviathans walking around had little in common except a possible affinity with water, but he was desperate for anything against the bastards that killed Bobby, (killed Cas, a part of his mind whispered).
Dean took another glance around, eyeing the herbs and spell components a little harder this time. There's probably enough here for a general summoning, if Ezra didn't have any info on a more specific summoning for Loki. He could try it. He would try it.
Mind made up, Dean finished his letter to Sam, tucked it in his inner suit pocket, and went off to charm Ezra. He had an archangel to summon.
