"I can't believe we don't have any Christmas decorations," Kevin complained, picking another piece of popcorn off the table.
"Just string the popcorn," Claire ordered, pulling another sheet of tinfoil from the package.
The sound of retching filled the room for a moment before they heard a toilet flush. Meg stumbled in and stuck her head under the sink, gulping down water. "Damn, Claire. What the fuck did you put in that soup last night? I don't think this body liked it."
"Maybe you're just getting sick," Kevin said gently. "First time being human in hundreds of years has to have screwed something up."
"Maybe." Meg grabbed a piece of popcorn off the table and popped it in her mouth. "More decorations? How many do we need?"
"You have to decorate the tree," Claire said stubbornly, manipulating the tinfoil. "This is your first Christmas as a human, too. Don't you want a nice one?"
"I don't really get it," Meg told her. "But whatever. I'll indulge Castiel."
Claire smiled at her. "You do that a lot. I guess you really like him."
Meg scowled at her. "Must be weird for you."
"He's not my dad, even if he looks like him," Claire said with a shrug. "He kinda tries, though."
"Well, I'm not the team mom, so don't treat me like one," Meg told her. "He possessed you once, right? That leaves a mark on both parties."
"That's why you're so attached to Sam, right?" Claire asked.
"You were in Sam?" Kevin interrupted. Meg glared at him and pulled out a chair.
"Yeah, a couple of years ago."
Claire grinned at Meg. "How'd you breathe up there?" Meg's lips twitched as she struggled to keep a straight face. Kevin failed and burst out laughing.
"What are you making anyway?" Meg asked as Claire finished her tinfoil creation.
"I didn't think an angel as a tree topper was appropriate," Claire explained, holding up the clumsily-made tinfoil star. "Kevin, help me get it up there."
Meg watched the two amble out of the room as her stomach heaved. As she ran for the bathroom again, she briefly saw Claire pressing closer to Kevin than she needed to as he helped her up the ladder.
