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 knows. But we don't talk about it."

She takes a deep breath and mirrors his gesture, picking up a shot of her own. "Didn't talk about it. No one did. Nobody in Purgatory wanted to believe that there were demons, or curses, or that I was anything but crazy."

"A lot of stuff gets blamed on wolves," she says. "Getting lost in the woods. Redneck hillbillies going after each other. Shit like that."

She shrugs. "People will believe anything, as long as you don't say 'demons'."

"I've known my whole life," she tells him. "Daddy trained Willa to be the heir, but we all knew. Mama, too."

"The truth," she muses, toying with her empty shot glass. "Well, you got a head start on me on training, but at least I've got some coaches now."

"Nineteen years?"

Look, she'd been thrown into this with no prep aside from the knowledge that it was coming. "Like I said, Daddy was training Willa. Not me."

"We didn't talk about it. We didn't do anything about it. And when I got old enough, I threw Peacemaker in a well and got the fuck out of the Ghost River Triangle."

Flat and uncompromising, as she stares at the table.

"They killed my uncle," she tells him, glancing back up at him, wry. "I came back for the funeral. Aunt Gus told me to go the hell away again, leave her and Waverly alone, but..."

She shrugs. "So I went and pulled Peacemaker out of the well, and the rest is history."

"Thanks."

She means it sincerely, even if sincere isn't a thing that comes naturally to her. "But I've got Dolls for a fight coach and Doc teaching me to shoot. Can't get better than that."

"Uh..."

She reaches for a brownie and gives him an expectant glance. "The name John Henry Holliday mean anything to you?"

"You know, sometimes you die of tuberculosis, sometimes you make a deal with a witch for agelessness and health and wind up stuck in a well for a hundred years," Wynonna says, half a mumble into her own glass as she watches for his reactions.

"It happens."

"Yeah, she's a real bitch. And, look, I get it, there are times when I want to push him into a well, too, but – "

She moves her head side to side, shrugging, though her eyes narrow at the way his expression flickers. "I'd like to say ol' Doc wouldn't be that desperate or dumb, but I already mentioned the well, right?"

pacificator: (but the old wood cracks)
From: [personal profile] pacificator
"The Stone Witch. Yeah."

She lifts her eyebrows and shakes her head, lifting her glass. "She's about as fun as a kick in the box."

pacificator: (I was already halfway gone)
From: [personal profile] pacificator
"Oh, yeah. She hated Wyatt Earp as much as she hated Doc."

More, maybe. Doc's punishment was really meant to punish Wyatt. "Probably she's got a reason for it, but who's got time to hang around and listen to a witch spout exposition?"
