Sam and Dean lose track of the days sometimes, out there on the road. So when they come back to the bunker and open the door on what smells like a feast, they were momentarily confused.

“Is that pie?” asked Dean, moving a bit cautiously.

Out of the kitchen came Jack, in an utterly ridiculous apron. “Come on and eat. It’s Thanksgiving.”

They headed down and sure enough Jack and Castiel had fixed an enormous spread. Charlie and Dorothy came around too. They even found Crowley skulking around and made him eat an enormous serving of marshmallow sweet potatoes.

Jack looked around at everyone smiling and laughing and enjoying the moment and gave a silent thanks for the families he’d made for himself. Castiel appeared by his side and took his hand. They didn’t need to speak, they were thinking the same thing.

“If there’s one thing the world needs more of…” or “Please stay.” Johnlock please and thanks!

“If there’s one thing the world needs more of,” growled John, “It’s Sherlock Holmes being a barmy, arrogant, git!”

Sherlock regarded him evenly. “It’s perfectly safe. I’ve planned for every eventuality.”

“You are talking about climbing a building, breaking in, getting what you need, and getting out, all within twenty minutes. Never minding their security system or anything else that might stand in your way.”

“If  you don’t want to go, John, you know I won’t make you.” Sherlock was already removing his coat and making sure his tools were in his pocket.

John took a deep breath, then another. “I’m not letting you go alone, you know that.”

Sherlock gave him a tiny smile. “Get the rope then. If this works well, we may get it done in fifteen.”
