[Jo is having a hard time believing that the twins have grown up this fast, but they have and this is happening. And since her better half is off making sure this whole thing goes off without a hitch, she is left by herself in the parents corner for now, drinking her own champagne and occasionally socializing with the other parents.

Also trying not to be emotional about it. These are her babies. They're all grown up.]

( Jack's -- well, like, three. But, also in his twenties. But, also eighteen. And while this started out as a charade, for Dean it became something else, something he could be proud of Jack for. Jack could've been doing it to make it up to them, to try and make it right, but Dean let that go. Dean passed into pride when he realized Jack found somewhere he felt he belonged.

So, he's a little choked up. On edge, but, misty-eyed. Dean's never met an alcoholic beverage he didn't like.
)

They uh, they grow up fast, don't they?

That they do.

[Jo pats him on the shoulder gently as she looks over the crowd.]

Jack's a good kid. I hope this has been good for him.
cholesterol: (clever saying)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-11 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
( Jo is one of very few people Dean isn't up in arms about getting emotional around. )

Jack never - had kids his age. Or, like his age. We're on the road a lot. Homeschooled him. This did him good.

( He knows. )

Jack's friends with Josie. He - never had friends.

Josie really likes him.

[And Jo will never forget what he did for her. He probably saved her daughter's life, and it means a lot. But she doesn't know if Dean's aware of those things, so she'll keep that to herself.

Today's not the day to upset a parent.]


I'm glad that you decided to bring him here.
cholesterol: (that so)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-11 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Honest?

( Cards on the table feels like the way it should go. The Winchesters are all in with Mystic Falls at this point. And not just because of his affinity for Elena Gilbert. This is another adventure for them, but with Jack here, maybe it's also a piece of his home now, too. )

He was a plant. At first. We didn't know if we could trust you school, what it was. You got a mixed reputation out in the midwest.

[personal profile] saveslives 2021-01-11 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, we figured.

[Jo hopes that isn't a surprise to him. She would hope that he was a little smarter than that.]

But we didn't have anything to hide, and Jack was a delight. We decided not to hold it against you.
cholesterol: (did not see that coming)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-11 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
We appreciate it.

( Oh, more champagne. Sure thing, he will definitely set an empty glass down and take a second. Seriously, Jo, he does better buzzed. )

Jack appreciated it. You could've always flipped us off and kept Jack. He needed it. As much as we tried, as much as we wanted, we weren't always enough.

You did your best.

[And that's all that anyone can really ask of you as a parent.]

It's clear that Jack loves you all very much.
cholesterol: (the angel before me)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-12 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, he uh, he had a tough time.

( And they're his dads. As complicated as the truth is, what's real is that. And Dean never thought he'd see himself with a real family. Not after Lisa. )

Cas did real good, too.

[personal profile] saveslives 2021-01-12 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
He did. I think he fit in really well with the other parents, even if he was a bit odd.

[Which, all of them are a bit odd, so that's not really saying anything.]
cholesterol: (news in heaven)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-12 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? He uh, he had nothing but good things to say. And if he had had any misgivings. He would've voiced him. He loves Jack.

( They all love Jack. )

What uh -- what usually happens after? Supernatural Ivy League?

Or the normal ones. Our goal here is to help socialize them within the supernatural world. While some schools have more of an occult history than others, we're not here to limit them.

[More or less.]

We gave them the tools, now it's time to see how well they use them.
cholesterol: (plan share)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-12 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
You know there are people like us, like Sam and me. We know they're people. But, they could run across the wrong pair. These kids, they deserve a chance.

( He looks over the crowd in front and the minglers, taking a sip. )

Where's Josie going? And -- her sister. The blonde.

Josie's following her girlfriend to Tulane. It's close to Hope's family. And Lizzie is heading off to NYU. But before they do any of that, they're doing the traditional backpacking across Europe trip for the summer.
cholesterol: (collect and)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-12 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
( It takes one slip-up, before the pitchforks come. )

Europe. They flying?

( Dean. )
saveslives: (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe in Legacies S 01 (86))

[personal profile] saveslives 2021-01-12 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
That is the plan. I don't think they really do passenger ships to Europe very much anymore.

( His teeth meet one another as he makes a face. One thing he's never been able to hide. That he'll never get on a plane again. )

Who doesn't want to be on a passenger ship for -- two weeks?

[She laughs.]

Not these teenagers. Especially when one of the parents can charter a private jet.
cholesterol: (giving me the headache)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-13 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Jets go down. ( Hoo-wee. Oh. Wait. He - looks to her. ) Not that I want that to happen, or think it will. I don't fly.

( She probably can see why. )
saveslives: (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe in Legacies S 01 (84))

[personal profile] saveslives 2021-01-13 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm seeing that.

[She smirks.]

Right now, it's a risk we're willing to take.
cholesterol: (that looks sharp)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-18 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
Everyone does.

( His voice is gruff as he clears his throat. )

Hope they like it. Kids do that. They go backpacking. It's like an experience.

[She nods.]

They deserve a little freedom before college eats all their time.
cholesterol: (cas don't)

[personal profile] cholesterol 2021-01-18 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
( They should be careful. Freedom can quickly turn dangerous on a dime, but he's not here to keep bringing the conversation down. )

They'll have fun.
