Do they know you're real or just think your parents were fans? Or, worse, the authors?

( But, this is fascinating and amusing. Learning about one another. )

its rare that i have a chance to use this icon

[Does he tell this story or not tell this story? Well. Well they were kind of talking about his exes.]

Most of them, no. But there was one super fan who did find out that we were real and she kind of ... kidnapped me, drugged me and tried to force me to marry her and a shotgun Vegas wedding?

some of my missions in life are getting you to use icons or write scenarios you rarely do!

[matriarchate]

Is that a question?

( That's insane. )

[imnot_likeyou]

No, unfortunately it was a reality.

[He makes a face.]

Thankfully we managed to talk her down. She's come really far with therapy. Is married with kids now.

[matriarchate]

Good for... her. Glad she isn't kidnapping and drugging people anymore. You... she doesn't count as one of your exes, right?

( Right? )

[imnot_likeyou]

No. Fortunately Dean saved me from the altar otherwise legally she may have to.

[But no, his list is probably a lot smaller than she thinks ... if they don't count that time when he didn't have a soul.]

( So's hers. You get gunshy after your first real relationship ends like hers did with Scott's, and her relationship with Isaac took a backseat to her recovery and her declaration of love on death's door. Moving was complicated enough. She needed the fresh start. )

Good. Because, I may know a good lawyer.

( She laughs. )

Let's keep doing this. If you have a feeling, we carve out time to express it. Because we can't all be like your brother.

[imnot_likeyou]

No, we can't. And I really don't want to be.

[He pauses as he takes another sip of his beer.]

Maybe we should just make time in general. If you're going to be here a while, maybe we should ... go on dates?

[Is that too normal for this couple?]

[matriarchate]

We should. We should let ourselves date. We're not running from anything - anymore - and we have the time. We should be normal and date.

( It's settled! )

[imnot_likeyou]

Great. Then we will date.

[Sam could do with a little bit of normal.]

Should we stop talking about my exes and maybe do something a little more fun?

[He could be persuaded to dance, maybe, if Allison wants to laugh at him.]

[matriarchate]

Let's take it one thing at a time. Should we fire up the jukebox?

( Nobody has yet, she doesn't think. )

[imnot_likeyou]

Let's do it.

[And with that, off they will go to have some good old fashioned fun.]
