5th Floor Common Room, Afternoon

[daemonridden]

Lyra walked into the fifth floor common room, chatting over her shoulder to Blair. She moved tot he kitchenette, and rummaged around in the fridge until she found the eggs, butter and a frying pan. What that was doing in the fridge, she had no idea. She shrugged, marking it off mentally as another weird quirk of this increasingly weird place

Dean had decided to track down his little sister Layla and see how her first week at Fandom was going so he headed up to the fifth floor, ducking his head into the common room first to see who was in there.

"I think there's enough excitement around here that I can afford to be boring about identifying myself," Dean said dryly. "Speaking of excitement, you seen Sammy yet since you got back?"

[deanforrester]

Dean waved at the Other Dean, glad to see him around. "Hey, man. What brings you to the fifth floor?"

[saltandammo]

"Hey," Dean greeted his brother's double. "Was looking for Layla -- she's my assigned little sister, wanted to check, see how she was doing. Speaking of, how you liking it here so far? Tired yet of having to explain you're not a Winchester?"

[deanforrester]

Dean grinned and nodded emphatically. "I think I was tired of it after the very first time. It takes me about ten minutes to introduce myself to everyone! And yeah, I knew Layla was your little sister. She thought I was you at the meet-and-greet thing on Sunday. Speaking of having to explain myself." He laughed, adding, "But it's all for the best. Turns out she lives right next door to me."

Dean chuckled. "Fandom is a very small island at times," he said. "If it's any help, the mistaken identity thing does get better after a week or two. People either start recognising you or at least they know there's two of your and just ask which one you are."

"Being a double makes listening to the radio even more interesting, too," he said, leaning against the arm of the nearest couch. "I figure eventually people will remeber that I'm taller than Sam." He left out the better hair part, and the scowls-less part, not sure if the Other Dean would be offended on Sam's behalf or not.

[saltandammo]

"You have my permission to remind Sammy of that as often as you want," Dean said with a grin. "Yeah, the radio is always interesting, especially if someone else has the same name as you -- and lucky you got the double whammy of doubles. They'll eventually settle on a name for you -- or every person who does it will and they won't necessarily all be the same. Becky -- she runs the brothel and taught Sex Ed this summer -- when she does it calls me and Alec 'Muskrat' and 'Birdcage.'"

[deanforrester]

"...Muskrat and Birdcage?" Dean looked bewildered. "I bet there's a good story behind that one," he said, raising an eyebrow.

[saltandammo]

"Becky gave Alec and me detention because we weren't sleeping together, and it was the week she and Miho -- she's a ninja, taught archery this summer -- was running it -- detentions are always held on Saturdays and are always weird. Part of the detention was that everyone had to dress up in costumes and she'd set aside two for Alec and me -- a muskrat and a birdcage," Dean explained. "It really wasn't that bad as dentions go -- my girlfriend at the time, Dawn, had it too and she looked real good in a corset."

[deanforrester]

Dean blinked, totally nonplussed. "She...gave you detention because...you and Alec, of all people, weren't sleeping together? Costumes? Wasn't bad?" Every time he thought there couldn't possibly be anything harder to believe that what he'd last heard (washing machine rebellion?!), there was something else to wrap his mind around.

[saltandammo]

"Maybe it'll make more sense if I mention that Becky's known as The Crazy Hooker?" Dean offered.

[deanforrester]

"...Hooker? As in. Hooker?" Dean gaped.

[saltandammo]

"You missed it when I said brothel earlier didn't you" Dean grinned. "And that's pretty much the same reaction Sammy had when he found out. Same expression too."

[deanforrester]

"If I heard you, I probably thought you were jerking me around." He shook his head trying to believe it. "So. You had actual prostitutes teaching Sex Ed. here. And there's a brothel. In town. I. God. I don't even know what to say."

[saltandammo]

"It makes a certain sense. Who else would know more about sex ed than a pro?" Dean pointed out.
