SPN Drabble: All Work and No Play
Feb. 3rd, 2010 11:41 pmThis a drabble of a much longer fic that, OMG, I WISH EXISTED.
Dean, Sam, and Castiel visit the Stanley Hotel, the inspiration for the Overlook Hotel in Stephen King's The Shining.
Also, note to self: you can exercise a spirit all you want, but in the end all you'll get is a ghost that's tired and sweaty and still very much haunting you.
All Work and No Play
“The Stanley Hotel, Dean?”
“What? It’s Cas’ first non-apocalypse related hunt. Thought we’d go old school,” Dean says, smirking across the front seat.
“We can’t exorcise the spirits at the Stanley Hotel!”
“Why not?”
“Oh, I don’t know, Dean, because people would miss them? They’re famous!”
There’s a tense silence. Dean glares at the road; Sam glares at Dean.
“Fine,” Dean says, giving in. “But we can still have a look, right? They don’t hurt us, we don’t hurt them.”
Sam rolls his eyes. “Fine. But the first time someone finger paints ‘redrum’ on the wall, we’re leaving.”
Dean pouts.

Date: 2010-02-04 05:10 pm (UTC)All I've got are vague notions of Castiel standing around like he left the gas on, surrounded by green baize and wood paneling, and an ancient caretaker taking one look at Sam and going, "Oh HELL no. I quit."
And Dean running around thinking he's funny with his, "Come play with us, Sammy."
Clearly, the shit would have to hit the fan after that because that's just asking for it.

Dean, Sam, and Castiel agree to take care of the
OverlookStanley Hotel for the winter. Hijinks ensue.Ooh, and now I can see Cas running into those creepy twins and being all head-tilty and WTH?

".... Hopscotch?"
Now you HAVE to write it.

Date: 2010-02-04 09:38 pm (UTC)YOU SHOULD TOTALLY WRITE THIS. It wouldn't even need porn because it would be THAT AWESOME.
......................REDRUM.
(I've used this icon, because it looks like the TARDIS ended up in the woods near the Stanley Hotel, stuck in the snow.)

Sam wiggles his finger, voice gone high and scratchy. A chill runs down Dean's spine.
"Sammy isn't here, Mr. Winchester."
(I have visions of the Doctor getting annoyed at a haunting. Like, he's trying to go about his business and the ghosts keep getting in the way and eventually he swats them on the forehead with his sonic screwdriver, like an owner with a puppy, and is all, "Bad! No crossing over for you!")
