[ It would normally be (virtually) impossible for someone to ignore that there are two brothers to choose from, but this is a Winchester we're talking about and it's not like anyone with that last name can claim a very good record of remembering this fact. But every once in a while Sam remembers Adam. Occasionally. Too bad he's too embarrassed by a fraction (or too dedicated to avoidance of the subject) to make the point. ]
Actually, I've been wrangling goats the last couple of days.
[ The less he tells Michael, the better he'll feel. Nevermind that Sam isn't working that hard at all to get back the the Free Cities. He is working hard on a pretty legitimate salad, however, and trades some coin for a few root vegetables. ]
If you want to avoid me in the meantime, I come Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
[ That is, as long as he doesn't see Michael, he'll keep his word. But the first time he gets that stalking sense... ]
That's not how this works. You want to see less of me, you work around my schedule.
[He's been here a year and change, he's not going to alter his patterns to suit the man that left both him and his younger brother in Hell. Active stalking is not in Michael's plans either, though his habit of appearing in the blink of an eye and in the strangest of places might make Sam feel like he's being watched. Trouble follows the Winchesters and he isn't eager to get caught up in any of it. That's the true source of his annoyance at finding him here—Solvunn faces enough disturbances as it is.
Michael gets a look from the seller, but it's brief and not followed by any offers. Having no appetite of his own, it's not often that he trades charms or favours for vegetables.]
You're avoiding the question. [Which he's reading as potential intent to stay in Solvunn long term.] Why would you want to remain here?
