[Private to Barbara Gordon]

We oughta do a check in, you and me.

[he's seething but managing to hide it. Kind of.]

[Private to Iris]

[This is the first time she's ever death tolled that he hasn't waited at her side for her to wake up. But he knows himself, and he knows that right now the safest thing for everyone is if he is nowhere near her.

So instead there's a message waiting for her.

You've got a lot of fuckin' nerve doing what you did, darlin'.

[And between all that he'll be wandering, mostly hanging out at the pool, which so far has only pretty happy memories. Nothing that he has the urge to scream at or shoot; progress!

Feel free to come poke the bear.

Is this the part where you expect I admit you're right, see the error of my ways, and learn how to take the bad with the good into the sunset?

Then why the fuck do you care if I know how to calm my chi or not?

[Dean, too. Define irony.]

Good thing it ain't lit then, isn't it?

[It's enough of a challenge to make Dean's vague annoyance solidify into something slightly sharper. If he wanted to light the damn thing, he'd light it, because apparently being contrary is something coded into his DNA right along with being stubborn.]

Is that a crime around here? Because honestly I can't figure out what is.

Assault is a laugh.

[Dean transfers the cigarette up to his mouth, freeing up his hands to stretch like he doesn't care about any of this at all. In point of fact, it doesn't.]

It's not my job anymore. It's just the way things are. And this place sure as shit isn't fooling me, even if Hell doesn't typically come with a pool with chlorine in it.

[Dean is watching him, still and cool and detached, and absolutely serious.]

Hell isn't the kind of place you ever get out of once you've been to it.

[Dean - animated, heart on his sleeve, restless, hyperactive, everything-110%-or-nothing at all Dean - sits very nearly motionless where he's stretched out on the pool chair, some kind of rabid creature that has had every warning sign or tell it ever had beaten out of it. There's some there, of course, because Cain is Cain - but he's no longer an open book at a glance.]

Not really. And even if there were, it's not like it's the kind of thing I could describe to you. Or that I would want to.

There's the first day, and then the day after that, and then the rest of it. That's about it.

[Back home. It's funny that after everything, that's a word that still bothers him; Chitaqua wasn't home. A ruined world wasn't home. The Impala was home but she's gone now - where is back home?

He knows what Cain meant, of course, and shakes his head.

Of course not. So?

Is there really any way you see this conversation going where you think you know better than I do what would fit in with Hell?

I'd be really, really happy to let you take that prize, but something tells me you can't.

And then we can go ahead and pretend we're civilized too, right?

Why should I agree to disagree? What makes you think you know better than I do what I'm talking about?

Well gold star for you. A position I aspire to. Truly an inspiration to all around you.

[He is not, of course, convinced. But he's also sick of arguing about it.]
