"Porcupine, to a prince," huh? [ Good morning to you, too, Siren's Port. There's a definite smile in Sam's voice, though you can't hear him scrub a hand over his chin, as if he's seriously considering "Chafe-Away." ] Say what you want about this place, but... man. The ads are almost worth it.

[ Sort of sarcasm. He's in a good mood, today. ]

I'm not going to bring up the candy corn stuff. So, now that we're past all that, anyone want to... I dunno, take a walk around the city? I feel like getting out today.

What, you need a date just to go on a walk?

[Yep, still pissed about the witch thing.]

[upstairsbrain]

I was just asking. [ And he's pissed, too. Again. ] But thanks for the unnecessary comment.

[failedparenting]

[Oh man, you said the wrong thing Sammy boy.]

Okay. I'll meet you in ten.

[Good job.]

[upstairsbrain]

[ FIGHT ME ]

Fine. [ And he hangs up. Off to pace around the apartment!! ]

[mulletrock]

[Dean's actually in the apartment and he's not amused. It's 2007 all over again.]

Keep this up and you guys are gonna need couples counseling.

Don't forget the leash, Dad.

[action]

[failedparenting]

[He hangs up, and about 15 minutes later, he's knocking on the door.

Time for a walk, motherfucker.]

[possessing]

Oh Sammy, that invite is so open ended.

[upstairsbrain]

[ Well, thanks, best friend 5ever. ... Sam just rolls his eyes over the video. ]

Guess I thought the people I didn't want around would have better things to do. Whoops.

[therightchoice]

The ads are the funniest things. The ones back home are pretty lame. Maybe it's because all the natives have some kind of power or something.

[upstairsbrain]

Yeah, that's probably it. It's good for us, though. We've got the entertainment.

[swedge]

Might just be me, but I've got a feeling you're going to get a lot of unwanted walk-buddies.

video;

[upstairsbrain]

And you'd be right. [ Sigh. ] Good call.

video;

[swedge]

Yeah....have fun with that. Try not to kill anyone.

video;

[swedge]

Have fun with that.

video;

[upstairsbrain]

Yeah, well. I'll try.

You are casting an open invitation for others to walk with you?

video;

[upstairsbrain]

I was, but the response wasn't... exactly what I'd expected.

video;

[servingmichael]

And what were you expecting?

video;

[upstairsbrain]

Maybe one or two people I actually get along with?

video;

[servingmichael]

Why cast such a general call in that case?

[astralling]

Sam, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause all this.

voice; private;

[upstairsbrain]

It's not your fault. [ He says, seriously. ] Not at all.

voice; private;

[astralling]

I feel so bad... I didn't know you were related when I made an enemy out of him.

But he was just so rude and- he. He said I was some spoiled little girl who thought she had problems and accused me of dealing with a demon, and didn't even give me the chance to respond.

I'm perfectly willing to be polite to someone who's important to you, but I'm too old to sit down and put up with a grown man trying to be a bully. High school was a long time ago.

voice; private;

[upstairsbrain]

It's not your fault. [ He feels like a broken record, but. ]

I know how he is. Believe me, we've butt heads pretty much my entire life. I don't expect you guys to get along, and, honestly? We haven't been seeing eye to eye recently, either.

[ It hurts him, actually. To have their dad back, and then for he and Sam to be at odds, even here. ]

He's in the wrong here, for a lot of reasons. And I don't know if things will change.

[astralling]

[She could ask if knowing what kind of witch she is would help. She could offer to talk to John. She could do a lot of things, but instead she answers after a long pause, something muted and chilly in her voice.]

We'll see.
