Making yourself available as someone who can answer questions, rather than someone looking to discourage him will help.

[Because he seems like the kind of man who's just going to go looking for the answers anyway. Better to have an expert he can turn to.]

Been a long time since I've had a cop in my back pocket.

( What? )

Maybe I'll table the quid pro quo.

[braveandstupid]

Can't hurt.

[Especially if Dean's going to be sticking around and may still need to deal with things.]

It might help with Ben too.

You think he'll reach out?

( That's what he's most worried about. )

[braveandstupid]

I don't think it'll be tomorrow. But even before he remembered you, he reached out for a reason.

[This part Elena understands. Wanting to understand where she came from when she realized that she was adopted. Wanting to talk to Isobel, even if she wound up being far more complicated than she realized.]

Just give him some time to process. It's going to take a little patience.

[cholesterol]

Yeah...

( That's actually something he has. )

So, we're meeting them for dinner. Double date.

[braveandstupid]

Yep. But not for a few hours.

[They just had lunch so they've got some time to relax.]

We've got some time.

[cholesterol]

( Right. What is time. It's only lunch time... )

You wanna get some rest?

[braveandstupid]

We could. We did have a long drive.

[It'd probably be good if Dean got some rest before he and Lisa have a tough conversation.]

But if you're feeling restless you can show me the sights in Battlecreek?

[cholesterol]

Let's get some rest, then I'll take you around.

( And by, let's, he just needs a power nap. He... drove all night. )

[braveandstupid]

[Sleep was her preferred option so she nods, getting up and taking his hand.]

Sounds good.

[And with that they settle in for a weekend in Battlecreek.]
