( Allison can meet the parents, she's good with parents. Melissa always liked her. She's more amused than anything after how nonchalantly Dean told his mother about her and Elena. )

You guys good back there?

( "We're fine," Allison responds, looking down at her phone. Yes, she's going to text the person in the passenger seat.

So. Your mom. )

[imnot_likeyou]

Yeah. It's ... a long story, but she doesn't get to meet my girlfriends much.

[Mostly because either she's dead or they die, but let's not dig into that trauma right now.]

[matriarchate]

Right, I guess we're in the middle of girlfriend territory now.

[imnot_likeyou]

We don't have to be?

[But he would like to be. Only if she wants to be.]

[matriarchate]

( She tilts the screen toward Lydia. )

Do you want to be?

[imnot_likeyou]

[Lydia smirks before shaking her head. Man up, Winchester.

Sam hesitates, trying to figure out how to communicate his wants without seeming like he's being dismissive. Because why just use words like a normal person?

Still, eventually he says:]

I would like it. But only if you want it too.

Consent is sexy.

( She sends one message first and lets the dead air linger between them to let him stew in his own sweat and words. She sends a follow-up message. )

I don't know, I think your brother decided for us. I think we have to, now. I also want to, for good measure.

[imnot_likeyou]

As long as you want to, that's all that matters to me. I have no problem telling Dean to shove it.

[matriarchate]

Oh, do that, too. He outed us to your mother. He owes us now.

[imnot_likeyou]

Noted. I'll make sure he knows it.

[And with that, he will lean against the door and start plotting his revenge as they head towards Kansas.]
