dear_mun | After finally getting around to starting American Horror Story, muse is NOT happy

Hey, Bobby. What's wrong?

[oh, godddammit. he sounds and LOOKS uncertain as all hell]

Hey, Bobby. Enjoyin' the show?

_{[Yeah he ain't happy to see you there Tate.]}

Boy, you have to the count of one to get your shit right up out.

Met a kid that was real damn nice n' now I know why he was real damn nice. Nuttier n' more evil than the damn Leviathans ever thought'a bein'.

[he'll just skip right to imploring, then]

Bobby, you gotta understand, most o' what I did, it was for the right reasons.

Shootin' up a school because you were mad?

Hurtin' the people that came into the house?

And I ain't even gonna start on nearly breakin' that girl.

If I were you I'd start makin' peace with whatever deities you pray to.

[If this isn't who he's swears it could be... Yeah, he'll spare those wisecracks.

Those don't even come close to surfacing as he practically double takes. The dead just won't stay dead.]

Bobby?

[Does he have to do be quick on his feet and grab for the nearest bottle of holy water? Dean hopes not. It had better not come down to that.]

_{[Whenever any Dean looks at him like that, it means trouble, he knows that much.]}

If it makes you feel any better, you can do any test on me you wanna.

[he grimaces] No, that wasn't why--

[that next one he doesn't feel any kind of remorse about, but he makes a good show of looking it] That was to--

[finally, "that girl" makes him clamp his mouth shut and wait for Bobby to finish. this is all kinds of Hell let loose. he doesn't know exactly what Bobby can actually do--he's a little nervous. but indignant anger is a great way to cover that, particularly because it's real]

I did not almost break Violet. She was freaked by all the ghosts, I was only helping, it wasn't my fault! I-- I love her, Bobby, I would never hurt 'er.

[any of his reasons Bobby gets wrong, that is the most important to him]

Kid, save it. That manipulative shit might work on other people, but I've seen 'em all n' how charismatic n' pitiful they can be, dead or human or whathaveyou. You might have your reasons that you think are fully justified, but lemme tell you, boy. There's just some things that can't be justified like that. An' I'm pretty sure you know it.

_{[But really, the justifications don't matter to him anyway. What's done is done and his job is to keep it from happening to anyone else. Which means moving a few malevolent spirits along by whatever means necessary.]}

I'd be pretty freaked out too in a house like that, especially with a ghost lyin' in my ear day in n' day out.

[he's actually getting pissed off, now. the justifications are everything to him; without them, he's got nothing. now he doesn't even have Violet. and she's the surest way to set him off]

You saw it. You know it wasn't all a lie. The fuck was I supposed t' do. Scare her? "Hey, nice to meet you, I'm dead. You should prob'ly leave before you get dead too." No one listens t' that shit. [not that he would have tried to get her to leave. he wanted that happiness for a little bit longer. but this really isn't helping, and he knows it. Tate takes a deep, unneeded breath to calm down]

Look, no one else is comin' into the house. Not t' stay anyway. Mr. an' Mrs. Harmon got that covered. No one else gets hurt. So you really don't have t' bother.

_{[[On the one hand I really love the makeup, little details, the characters, but on the other hand the story itself is wigging me right out. Which, I suppose, is the point. Still don't get the alien thing though.]]}

At least she might'a left the house thinkin' there was some weird guy peepin' on her or some shit, n' she wouldn'a done what she did. That ain't even the least bit kosher, boy and I think you know it. You bein' selfish didn't do her a damn bit'a good. Yeah, young love's all well n' good an' I ain't doubtin' you cared, but from where I'm standin', I see psychosis n' a hell of a lot of rage you started directin' all wrong.

I ain't gonna do a damn thing about the Harmons if they don't want. They ain't hurt nobody, just scarin' folks to keep 'em safe, n' I can respect that, even if it probably would give someone a heart attack eventually n' end them up there too. They're doin' it with good intention. But you? You got deep malice in you, boy. Shovin' pokers where the sun don't shine? That's pure sadism and I think you know it.

_{[To his credit, at least he hasn't raised his voice in all this. He's had enough experience with angsty teenage boys by now to know how to control his temper. For the most part.

Just keep talking to him Tate, you're just giving him information and making it easier for him to work his magic later.]}

[There's always trouble. He ought to know that Sam and Dean hardly ever stay out of it.

Dean nods, warily looking at him. Could be one powerful son of a bitch that did this to him. Damn it, and there likely won't be enough time to have Sammy for back up.]

Can never be too careful these days.

[BRB, getting that holy water now.]

_{[He's just shaking his head. They learned well, that was for sure. It was unfortunate that Dean had to be this paranoid about the people he cared about though. But he would have done the same. He even had a container of the cleaner to prove he wasn't a Leviathan. You learn to keep these things around after the first instance, after all.]}

Yeah, don't I know it...

Need some help dealing with him?

Doubt I'll need help with him, but he's got himself a house full of spirits ain't exactly friendly about home invasions. Not all of 'em are all that bad from what I know, but there's some of 'em that'd sooner hurt folks to their own ends.

[Leviathans. Dean won't need to reminded much about those nasty sons of bitches. Or Purgatory either, for that matter.

It'd be a whole lot easier if their enemies weren't so clever, and able to walk around looking like people. There were even angels who'd use people Sam and Dean love against them.

Now there's one more reason why Dean is paranoid for people he's close to; himself.

Dean is back, with a bottle of holy water. He untwists the cap, and splashes Bobby in the face. Please, please let it just be Bobby. He's got more than enough things to worry about as it is, and they're not all related to Cain's mark.]

Then let's take care of it. If you don't wanna gank the kind so be it but we should take care of those sons of bitches that are hurting people.

Then let's take a road trip to California.

_{[And in return a flask of holy water was flicked right back in Dean's direction.]} Somehow I can't really say I missed that.

[If Dean had been a demon still, this would have gone much, much worse. But he won't talk about that. No, let's just...not.]

Me neither. It's just good to know none of us are demons. [Dean feels this dread as he frowns, before asking the following question.] What's the last thing you remember the last time you saw Sammy and me on our world?

Well, alright then. [grins] What do we need to bring?

[[yeah, I think the alien thing is what turns Asylum off for me, too. I normally love aliens but I think in Asylum it seems hammy and out of place... then again I'm more for ghosts anyhow]]

But I've been gettin' help, you know that. An' I think Mr. Harmon really has helped me. No matter what he says 'bout it bein' bullshit. I don't wanna hurt people. I just-- [he stops, gathering his thoughts. you can almost see a mask of calm filter over his face. the same kind he put on talking to Mr. Harmon that final time]

I dunno about sadism or psychopath or all those fancy words. I just wanna protect Violet, help her if I can. Wait for her. Have my chats with Mr. Harmon. Play with my brother. I'm not gonna hurt nobody.

[he definitely is gonna keep talking. that's all he's got, other than violence. and he'd rather this not get physical]
