Rating/Content: PG, missing-scene-ish for 3.11 Mystery Spot
Word Count: Drabble
Disclaimer: I do not own and did not originate this world and its inherent characters.
Notes: Written for spn_bigpretzel's D.E.W. challenge: Death - Accidents. Taking a brief break from all the RL mayhem going on for me right now to write a quick drabble.
Summary: Not your typical Tuesday, but it is the Winchesters after all.
Heavy Traffic in the Express Lane
Eventually, Death stopped bothering to watch.
"He's back! No, he's gone. No he's back! Nope... nope... Back again!"
This new Dispatching Reaper was keen, but highly distractible. That will require adjustment. "Tobias-"
"It was a taco that time!"
Sighing, Death set down his poutine. "You needn't narrate every one of Dean Winchester's myriad brief passings today."
"Not even the cool ones?"
Death pinned Tobias with a stare. "These deaths aren't part of the factual world, and nothing to do with me. It's simply an angel, playing a very dangerous game."
"Oh? What game's that?"
Death picked up his fork and speared a cheesy, dripping fry.
"Motivating a Winchester."

Note: I am very much not up to date on watching Supernatural. I have only watched into early Season 9, and will catch up eventually, but not soon. Please please try to avoid referencing any Season 9 or 10 developments in comments.
