[ The video starts abruptly as Dean tosses down his phone on an unseen surface in one of the upstairs rooms, a thud coming as he dumps a bag of unknown objects on the floor and hisses at peeling his shirt off, a bloody wound on his back and a specific tattoo on his chest. ]

Sammy, you need me to stitch anything, or are you good? [ He scratches

Dean?!

[Gosh, how is she supposed to enjoy the view if she's worried?]

[likemichael]

[He responds once the cast is off and he's getting a shirt on.] Hey, hey, I'm fine. We're both fine. We got my cast off, look! [He shows off his right arm.]

[softenedbyme]

[Later, Dean. She's unimpressed by almost all of this.]

You're both hurt. What happened?

[likemichael]

This? Nah, we're fine. It was just a... bit of fun. [A hunt, actually, and they got a bit beat up but Dean wasn't playing at full capacity and they've got a few dynamic kinks to work out, with the time difference.]

[softenedbyme]

And then you took a saw to your arm.

[She isn't so sure about the fine part.]

[likemichael]

We got my cast off? I didn't even nick the skin, look.

[He gives her a curious look. Is this actual concern? He hasn't had that from anyone but Sam and Bobby in a long time. Castiel is a debatable point.]

[softenedbyme]

You could have gone to a doctor.

[Or come to Dr. Magnus.]

[likemichael]

Nah, they'd have said I needed it on for two more weeks. I can't work like this, so I needed it off.

[softenedbyme]

They say that because it's important to give bones time to heal!

[Even she knows that.]

[likemichael]

I've had plenty of breaks, sweetheart, I'll be fine. Sam's got my back, he's always got my back, so don't worry so much.

[softenedbyme]

People worry about you when you do stupid things.

[They've been over this.]

[likemichael]

[This is a foreign concept to him. No one worries about Winchesters, they're usually avoided or they scare people.]

Right... well, it's all okay now. So... [A shrug.]

[softenedbyme]

...Okay.

[Not sure if believe.]

[likemichael]

So... uh, you been okay?

[Well, now he just feels awkward.]

[softenedbyme]

Mostly. I usually stay at the Sanctuary...

[likemichael]

You're living there then? [He doesn't voice it but he figures it makes sense, given what she is and what that place is for.] The Doc's a nice lady, she set my arm.
