Summary: family time~
Warnings: Winchesters?

[Winchester Thanksgiving goes like this:

The three male intrepid stars of this reality show have already traipsed in from parts unknown to help out Mary, who threatened vengeance if they didn't. There's alcohol, too much food, movies to watch, and air mattresses in the two bedrooms in case someone wants to sleep it off. Jo and Jesse are here because Mary likes adopting orphans, and Anya is here for the exact same reason.

The food includes: fan-fucking-tastic roast turkey, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, yams (with marshmallows, because screw you it's tradition), stuffing, and about four kinds of pie. Yeah, she had a lot of help on this one.

Meowth, by the way, is taking Christian Slater human form and looking like a teenage boy, despite trash-talking like a forty-year-old Bronx native. He lives with Mary. It's a thing. The cats (Apple and Orange, who is blue) love him. Deal with it.

This post is for anything! Conversations, arguments, anything you want to thread for Thanksgiving and that night (since nobody's going anywhere after dark).]

[And it should be just a giant fucking pile of fun for everyone- actually, not too bad, considering that Mary manages to hide how angry she is at John decently well. Of course, Dean has seen Mary unwound and honest more than most of the people in the room- except John and maybe Meowth, so there's that.

After dinner, when people are breaking up, she catches him by the elbow with a smile- real, a little more relaxed than she's been all night (possibly related to the drinks she's tossing back, or maybe the privacy).]

Hey- wanna break into the pie before everyone else? It's a one-time offer.

[Dean doesn't know the drama with his parents. He's got enough of his own to last him three lifetimes. He's pretty convinced of that.

When his Mom drags him over he's expecting the worst and there's no hiding the way his face lights up when it's actually the best news he's gotten all week.]

Hell yeah.

[momchester]

Thought so.

[Every time this happens, Mary has a moment where she thinks she'd do or say anything to make him smile like that. Honest. Happy. It's so rare.

The moment passes, and she walks him to the table - now mostly cleared, since everyone helped clean it off - and goes to the oven to investigate the pies, still warming.]

Okay- apple, pumpkin, or pecan?

[mulletrock]

[Dean follows her right into the kitchen and the smell of pie is on him and all his problems are gone for the moment.]

Why not all three?

[momchester]

Because this is an appetizer.

[She chooses pumpkin. It's easiest to get little slices of. And some whipped cream. The fresh shit, because YOLO.]

[mulletrock]

I hope you'll give me somethin' like six of these for the road.

[He means the appetizers, and wastes no time digging in. Pie was something he'd never have enough of.]
