Sam's freshly bandaged, curled up on his bed. His laptop's open, but he's fading fast.

"Tell me you're not doing research," Dean says, packing up the first aid kit.

"No," Sam husks, idly poking a button. "Blog."

"Let me guess. Why Captain Picard Is Better Than Captain Kirk."

"S'about jellyfish." Sam yawns.

"Dude, if you're lookin' at porn, just say so."

Sam snorts, but it turns into a cough that has Dean eyeing him carefully.

"How can you even read that?" Dean asks. "It's sideways."

"Skill..."

"Can't be good for your eyes."

No answer.

Dean puts the laptop somewhere safe.
