Hi, what can I help you with?

Today was gonna be the day, but they'll never throw it back to you. And by now, you should've somehow realized what you're not to do.

That's sweet of you, he does love cupcakes. Just leave them in the command center, he'll get them from there.

[ that's very cute, dean, she already liked you but now likes you more. ]

Yes, I can. What do you want?

[ruinously]

Awesome, I'll leave 'em out with a big red bow.

[ he tries, really. ]

Uh, well -- I don't wanna be greedy. [ but. he kinda does. he's never been allowed to ask for anything for himself before so this is just...

wow. ]

I was thinkin' like. Record player, nice speaker with an aux cord. [ bless 2009 ]

Couple vinyls...maybe...

I'll make you a mix, as payment.

[vivecai]

You're not. You deserve something nice, Dean.

[ it's softly said, fully meant. to ask for something small like a record player and some vinyls... it shouldn't feel like asking for much. or being greedy. ]

I can get those for you — and do you one better. In the next supply drop, you'll get the record player, a cord to attach it to your room's power supply, and what vinyls you want. And once you connect the record player to your room, it'll play whatever you want with full surround audio or connect directly to your earpiece, so you can listen to the vinyls... hm, like on headphones, but better.

[ruinously]

I don't, uh -- I dunno about that.

[ It's said with a quietly awkward chuckle, like he's not used to people saying things like that, in any capacity. With John, it was always what he'd done wrong, how he messed up, how he can't take care of the car, how he let Sammy down.

What he deserves is to be back in hell, but not before he fixes some stuff, first.

But..he'd kinda like some vinyls in the meantime. ]

Wow -- really? You can do that?

[vivecai]

I wouldn't be saying I can if I couldn't. You forget I'm connected to the station.

[ which means she can program changes in each room if she wants... or if she's asked about it. ]
