Careful What You Wish For

Epilogue

Gabriel closed the scrying sensor. "See? What'd I tell you?" he grinned.

"I can't... How do I know this wasn't just some projection?" She was bewildered.

He shrugged "If you really don't believe me, just ask one of them about it next time you see them. I'm sure the level of proud and/or red they turn will be proof enough."

She laughed and grinned back at him. "If that's what you can accomplish with a properly placed pocket dial and like, a level one divination spell... oof, I don't even wanna know what kind of amazing things you could do if we upped the power level a bit."

"I could do so much, Red. But what are the stakes?"

"Ooh, another wager, huh? Alright, if you fail, I get a night alone - or, you know, as alone as it can be with you running the illusion - with Galadriel, and if you succeed, I'll share a memory of Oz."

Gabriel considered the terms carefully. "Alright, sounds fair."

"So what's the challenge?"

"Winchester Sandwich Part Deux, substitute Sam for Dean."

"Wow, okay, that's pretty ambitious. We still talkin' Cas and Crowley?"

"Yep, baby brother and the new king of Hell with Dean on a spit roast."

She half-laughed, half-scoffed. "Guarantees are getting a little specific, don't you think?"

"Hmm... I could probably make that exact thing happen if I really needed to... but yeah, no, you're right. Lets keep it simple. The three of them, together in some configuration, lots of hot and steamy love makin'. Sound good?"

"Okay, but you have to do it without erasing any of what happened from anyone's memory, and you can't hinder Dean from finding out more about what already happened."

"What, that supposed to make it harder or something?" he scoffed playfully.

"Oh, and obviously no coercive or otherwise skeezy stuff, same as last time."

"Obviously. I just set the scene, plant scenarios for them to respond to, and none of it is fabricated. The momentum and direction is all on them. Very table top RPG, yeah? So, do we have a deal?"

"Deal," Charlie reached out and the pair shook hands.
