Alec was trying not to think too hard; a run in candy-rain had helped, earlier (how could it not, really?), and now he was sort of mentally drifting. Half sitting up on his bed with his eyes closed, he probably looked like he was napping - but how likely was that, really?

Dean headed back from Caritas, his loot from the candy rain in a sack. On impulse he ducked his head into the alcove next to his. "Hey, you awake?"

"If I was, I'm not now," he replied without heat, cracking open an eyelid to give Dean a look.

"Yeah, considering you need like five minutes sleep a night, I'm not feeling the guilt," Dean said, coming in and sitting on the edge of Alec's bed. He held up his sack. "This rain's kinda like trick or treating. Only without me having to wear a kilt. Want some?"

"So it's not as fun, you're saying." Alec shrugged, sitting up. "Sure, I guess. And it's like four hours, not five minutes - I'm not a machine." It was meant to be somewhat playful, but as faint as the accompanying smile was, it fell a bit flat.
