(001)(video)

[learnyourplace]

[Rachel manages to startle herself while poking around at the appliances in her small, starter apartment. With her NV in one hand as she does, it comes as no surprise that she turns it on as she backs away from an exploding toaster.

Obviously, she shouldn't be allowed near a kitchen. It's probably a good thing she doesn't need to eat. There's a moment of her just looking at the counter top -- then at the NV and her head tilts a bit to the side.

It probably shouldn't be on.] Oh. [She fumbles with it, trying to turn off the feed and finally, fed up, tries to turn it off via angel mojo. She only succeeds in blowing up a lightbulb. She looks very put-upon, very frustrated, hiding a thread of fear underneath it. She is not ready to let other know she's here. That choice has been taken from her, because of her own carelessness.

... She still can't find the right button to push.]

Yes. It is yours. [It is certainly not hers.]

There's hardly any need to be rude.

[/hypocrite]

I've done nothing to you except save the bloody world. You can send your thank you card in the mail when you've finished being a racist.

[Video]

[learnyourplace]

You would drag the world into chaos.

[Video]

[integrity]

The world has always been in a state of chaos. I was trying to make it better. Or would you rather Raphael be the biggest kid in the sandbox?

[Video]

[learnyourplace]

This is not an argument I will have with you. [What she really means is "I'm right, you're wrong, now shut up."]

[Video]

[integrity]

Of course not, because no one on your side would bother listening to a demon except your esteemed leader.

And how many of you are dead, now?

[Video]

[learnyourplace]

Dead because of you and your machinations.

[Video]

[integrity]

Died because you were in a war and you tossed out your most valuable ally.

[Video]

[learnyourplace]

I was killed. Your ideas and your assets and your machinations murdered me. You have no high ground. You have no value.

[Video]

[integrity]

Shut up before you injure yourself by thinking too hard and let me allow you in on a secret.

[With every ounce of control and calm that becomes a ruler of Hell. One that has been threatened by far worse than you and walked away.]

You don't frighten me, nor are you remotely intimidating. I'm not the one who stabbed you, Castiel was -- and from what I was told, you were the one who got dangerous with the sharp objects first. So let's sit back, zip up our trousers, and cease the show, shall we? Because you are talking down to the individual that is going to piece your stupid shitty dimension back together with all the duct tape I can spare because you idiots aren't capable of doing it yourselves. And when all is said and done, I'll just be over here with my Noble Peace Prize for fixing your messes.

[And Crowley leans back in his chair.]

Welcome to the Port. Enjoy your stay. And stay away from me.

I'm proficient with far more than pointy angel sticks.

[Did he frighten her? Yes, but she would never show it. His words are, to her, arrogant. Uncalled for. Unwanted.]

You won't. You'll make it worse. You have no place dealing in our affairs.

[Please hang up on her, Crowley. She can't figure out how to do it herself.]

[Video]

[integrity]

They aren't your affairs, sweetheart. Your war affects us all. If you haven't noticed, Raphael wanted to spring Lucifer from the Cage, which makes bad news for the rest of the world, including Hell.

Not that any of you give a damn, but I'll keep my feelings well-protected.

[no u]

[learnyourplace]

And you want to deal with Purgatory. That's not any better. [Pause and then, frustrated:] Hang up, would you?

[Video]

[integrity]

Make me.

[She snarls at the NV and, because she still can't figure out how to turn the cursed thing off, sets it on the counter.

And walks away.

Ignoring you. Lalala.]
