"What are you doing?"

Sam had woken up when his still mostly asleep brain had registered the absence of something intrisic, the gentle sound of his brother's snores. Sam would bitch for days about the noise but the simple fact was, he'd gotten used to it. Stanford had been a bleary half-awake nightmare for the first three months of his stay because he just hadn't been able to sleep.

"What's it look like?"

"It looks like your holding a washing machine at gun point," Sam says, ever the stater of simple fact. Dean does indeed have his shotgun resting against the metal side of the washer that had just had the misfortune of being subjected to their clothes earlier that day. It had been a blessing and a curse to find a motel with a public laundry room attached.

A blessing because Dean's clothes were ready to get up and start hunting things by themselves and a curse because... well, they had no excuse not to do washing.

"Bingo."

"Okay, let me rephrase. Why are you doing that?"

"Because the little fucker can't hide forever is why," Dean says, voice a low growl while he nudges the washing machine with what looks like all the menace he can muster. It's not really that menacing considering he's wearing only a t-shirt, boxer shorts and one sock.

"Oh my god, we're not doing this again," Sam groans, slapping a hand to his forehead. He loves his brother, it's true, but he has all these damn quirks. Like sometimes he gets a notion in his head and nothing in the world will shake his resolve. He's also damn picky about what he believes in. "There's no monster that eats socks."

"There is," Dean insists. "It's been following us for five damn states and it got my last pair this morning."

"Well, technically it only got one."

"You're not helping," Dean complains, finally cutting his gaze to Sam. "Why can't you-?"

It's right about then that something dark and fluffy shoots out of the washing machine and straight up the wall opposite. Dean spins but he's too late as it disappears into a vent opposite that has a large hole in it. There's a chittering noise and then what sounds like an long and fairly lusty burp right before the remains of a fairly well-masticated sock thumps to the floor out of the vent.

Sam just stares at his brother for a moment, unable to form words right up until Dean cracks a grin.

"Next time I floor it when I see a rainbow I don't want to hear shit from you."

Hee, that is just adorable! (Also, I have one in my washing machine, I'm sure of it!)

I think we all have the same one... the washing machines are merely portals into their world!

From: [identity profile] danegen.livejournal.com


Oh, that last line made me cackle.

Dude, Dean should figure out a way to make demon-repelling fabric softener. He could totally sell that shit.

"Dude, you got the rocksalt?"

"Naw, I got somethin' better. Rock Softener... "

:D

I'm so happy to see fun stuff like this to ease our aching hearts.

"It looks like your holding a washing machine at gun point," Sam says, ever the stater of simple fact.

Love me some Dean, but Sam's dry sense of humor is more like mine.

Dean's clothes were ready to get up and start hunting things by themselves

My 12-year-old son has socks like these. We just give them to the sock monster with our blessing.

Hehehee... sometimes you just have to make offerings to the sock monster for everyone's good... :D

For a moment, I thought this might have been my summergen request, because DUDE, I totally included this prompt:

Winchesters v. Laundry: There really is a sock-eating monster. (http://community.livejournal.com/spn_summergen/18678.html?thread=637174#t637174)

Very funny.

From: [identity profile] kellifer-fic.livejournal.com


Hahahaa...! Oh noes! I got this as a prompt from one of my stumpers... :D

From: [identity profile] skippy-peanuts.livejournal.com


hahaha!! That was Awesome! I always knew there was something eating my socks! hehe. and i love that last line!

From: [identity profile] seerargent.livejournal.com


YES!!!!!! THis explains everything. Never did trust machines.
*sighs* I just love it when Dean is right.



From: [identity profile] maychorian.livejournal.com


Oh, fantastic. DEAN WAS RIGHT. You should never doubt the Dean. He has INSTINCTS. The instincts TELL him when there is a monster. Never doubt, Sam. Never doubt.

From: [identity profile] akayalovesyaoi.livejournal.com


I have this monster too D: Seriously, I can feel Dean's pain in that. Also, last line, perfect xD

From: [identity profile] mesmerizedvamp.livejournal.com


I love this. I just got the WTF is wrong with you look? cause the idea of Dean pointing a gun at the washing machine made me burst out laughing.I think it's the best image ever!!

From: [identity profile] phyllis2779.livejournal.com


And to think, my husband thought there was a sock eating monster in our washer and I didn't believe him. Now I can tell him that all he needs to do is get a shotgun and lie in wait by the washing machine. :-)

From: [identity profile] phyllis2779.livejournal.com


But that sock monster only preys on certain people. It never troubles me so I have all my socks. But oh my poor husband. His socks must be incredibly delicious to the monster because it's a rare time when he gets all his pairs back. Dean's must be extra special too. To think, my husband and Dean have something in common, besides the Y chromosome.
