(1) When We Collide (T. Stark)

Tony finds dozens of matches to the finger print he'd pulled at the hotel. 'Joan's' fingerprints. But all they lead him to are unsolved cases. Crime scenes. But nothing about her real identity. And he almost gives up. Almost. Till a New Year's party he crashes in Nashville.

...................

It's the first New Year Spencer's celebrated with both her brothers in years, now that Sam is back in the hunting life, a dead girlfriend and a missing father to thank for that. Things have been tense and more so between Spencer and Sam, they're supposed to be twins, yet the atmosphere around them both leaves everyone uncomfortable. He doesn't know how to talk to her any more, it was so easy growing up, all they'd have to do is share a look but now, he wants to talk to her, he wants his sister back, he wants his best friend back, but he doesn't understand why she's distant and when he asks she just gives him this heartbreaking look and shakes her head before turning away again. Car rides are unbearably tense. Motel rooms thick with an atmosphere. So Dean's suggested they celebrate the New Year together by going to a party. Unfortunately it's a theme party. 1940's. Which means costumes. Spencer hates dressing up. Even if she does suit it. Spencer enters the party between her two brothers. That's the moment Tony sees her again. Dressed in a very form fitting deep blue 1940's dress with matching fascinator. Spencer looks around and then sighs.

"I need a drink" Spencer states and then just walks away without waiting for permission or an opinion, Dean and Sam share a look.

"What do you want me to do?" Sam asks him. "We're not the same any more" he walks away from his big brother who sighs.

Tony moves to the bar and straight to Spencer as she reaches it, she looks even more stunning in that dress up close, he smiles.

"Fancy seeing you here" Tony teases leaning on the bar beside Spencer who sighs and looks to him.

"Stalking me?" she asks.

"Nope" he answers. "I was party crashing" he admits waving for the bartender. "Scotch and a dark 'n' stormy" he orders, Spencer raises an eyebrow.

"You remember my drink?" she asks, he nods.

"Yep" he answers. "So...New Orleans and now Nashville" he starts.

"Me and my brothers move around a lot" she admits. "For work"

"And what is it you do?" he asks.

"The family business" she answers cryptically. He raises an eyebrow. "Pest control"

"You work in pest control?" he asks smirking.

"You say that like it is so hard for you to believe" she points out.

"Hard to believe you go around killing Thumper" he mumbles a little. "Or....Bullwinkle" she frowns at him. "The squirrel"

"You mean Rocky" she corrects teasing him. "Bullwinkle was the moose" he scoffs.

"Does it really matter?" he asks smirking. "So what you get the shovel out and...." she laughs and shakes her head.

"No, no..." she answers. "It's a bit more....sophisticated now"

"Is that what you always wanted to do?" Tony asks her.

"It's...what I was raised to do" she answers.

"That's not the same thing" he argues. "When we first met you were reading a book on engineering, are you interested in engineering?" he asks touching her arm.

"I'm interested in everything" she admits. "Engineering is just the current one. Biomechanics was the last"

"Not exactly little hobbies" he teases, she looks to him.
