[AU] two worlds, a lot of demons, and a new set of problems
It's still hard to believe it's over; that the yellow-eyed demonic bastard they'd spent their whole lives hunting is finally dead.
Sam figures it'll sink in eventually. Given everything else -- right now he's still pretty numb.
He's also desperately tired, but that doesn't matter. There's something he needs to do, and he can't afford to delay.
He waits until they've settled in for the night, and then waits still longer. Once Dean's been asleep for half an hour, Sam picks up his messenger bag -- already stuffed with books and his computer -- and heads straight for the bar.
He orders black coffee and snags a table with a good view of both doors and the stairs, then pulls out the first of the old texts and starts to search through it.
There's work to do.

She looks down, then shrugs at him. "Inheritance."

"I'm Sam, by the way."

She takes the seat and sets the skull down carefully, then holds out her hand with a bright smile. "Waverly."

As he asks, the waitrat runs up and squeaks sternly at him, then turns to her with an expectant look.
no subject
She turns the same bemused look on the thing that scurries up. "Um... hello."
no subject
It lets out a squeak, and he looks back at her. "They're the waitstaff. You can get pretty much anything you want here. First drink's free."
no subject
She looks from him back to the large rat, bewildered. "Um... mint tea? Please? If you have it?"
no subject
He looks back at Waverly. “I’ve only heard that name once, as it happens. If you have a sister, that is.”
no subject
A second later and her face crinkles into something like uncertain apology. "Oh, you met Wynonna. Should I say sorry? Did she behave herself?"

She smacks the table, then looks surprised at herself as the skull rattles. "She is getting far too trigger-happy."

She frowns at the absent Wynonna. "I mean, you seem like a perfectly nice guy. And even if she had reason to wonder, you don't just go around threatening to shoot people. She's been spending too much time with Doc."

"I mean... you're not, right? A... " She waves her hand at him, indicating everything. "Are you?"
no subject
no subject
Unsure what to make of his other comment, she lifts her eyebrows, nodding the way she does when she's behind the bar and someone just needs her to agree with whatever they said. "Oh? Good for you."
no subject
Sam leans down to relieve the waitrat of its burden and sets the tea in front of her before taking a sip of his coffee. “A demon hunter,” he clarifies. “Among other things.”
no subject
Oh, that's... good? Is it good? She reaches for her tea, absently. "So I guess you and Wynonna realized you have something in common."
no subject
He nods to her bodiless companion. “So what’s the deal with the skull?”
