Notes: Written for spn_bigpretzel's D.E.W. challenge: Death - Accidents. Taking a brief break from all the RL mayhem going on for me right now to write a quick drabble.

Summary: Not your typical Tuesday, but it is the Winchesters after all.


Heavy Traffic in the Express Lane

Eventually, Death stopped bothering to watch.

"He's back! No, he's gone. No he's back! Nope... nope... Back again!"

This new Dispatching Reaper was keen, but highly distractible. That will require adjustment. "Tobias-"

"It was a taco that time!"

Sighing, Death set down his poutine. "You needn't narrate every one of Dean Winchester's myriad brief passings today."

"Not even the cool ones?"

Death pinned Tobias with a stare. "These deaths aren't part of the factual world, and nothing to do with me. It's simply an angel, playing a very dangerous game."

"Oh? What game's that?"

Death picked up his fork and speared a cheesy, dripping fry.

"Motivating a Winchester."

Note: I am very much not up to date on watching Supernatural. I have only watched into early Season 9, and will catch up eventually, but not soon. Please please try to avoid referencing any Season 9 or 10 developments in comments.

Oh, poor Death! Yes, this new recruit needs readjustment - the sooner the better. :D

[caffienekitty]

He's a little on the excitable side, not what you want in a Reaper.

"Motivating a Winchester". LOL....that is a dangerous games and so many have played it and lost

[caffienekitty]

Sooooo many. Hell hath no fury like a motivated Winchester (literally).

LOL, I love Death's commentary on what Gabe is doing. Dangerous indeed! :D

[caffienekitty]

Gabriel wasn't a bit of a loose cannon.

New Reaper, needs a tutorial on Winchesters and Death. I can understand how Death is not impressed with Gabriels movational tactics. Eventually the Winchesters will get their own back. LOL Really enjoyed this thanks.

[caffienekitty]

I think Death is not impressed with anything that messes with his status quo, really.

I suspect Tobias will be getting some interesting assignments after this! XD

At least Death has his snack to console him.

[caffienekitty]

Or less interesting, to grind his enthusiasm down a little with routine.

Death is a very perceptive 'man'
Great drabble :)

The technical term is probably entity, but yes, he definitely is.
