On being homeless and staying that way

[hunting_trip]

Woah, woah, woah. Slow your roll.

We've had this conversation, and unless I've got Alzheimer's- and don't even start with those old age jokes- we agreed you were gonna chill out. Temporary, remember? You think I'm really gonna stick around and listen to a girl in Mario pajamas? Nuh-uh.

Besides, I don't do that settling in crap. You're gonna, what, put me in a game and strand me there? I don't think so. I've got enough going on, I don't need your help. Leave Sam and Cas outta this, too. I see you eyeballing.

You've got work to do- and before you go getting all sappy thinking I care about whatever it is going on in your life, I'm thinking of me, here. Whatever it takes to knock those loose screws in your gourd back into working condition.

You realize what you sound like, right? That fat guy from that... LARP... thing. That's you. That's you right now. That a pretty picture? No? Didn't think so.

Stay Classy.

It sounds as if you and your mun can't quite agree.

[hunting_trip]

And you two can?

[doubtheaven]

Typically.

Though we've had our moments.

[hunting_trip]

Yeah, well. I'm pretty sure this whole relationship is going to be nothing but moments. I just want out. Not interested. Pass.

Call me crazy, but I'm not a big fan of having my head screwed.

[doubtheaven]

Where does she intend to place you?

[hunting_trip]

Doesn't know yet, she's still looking around. I've seen some of these places- you people cannot be serious. It's like Stephen King mated with a bag of cocaine and had creepy little crack babies all over the internet.

[doubtheaven]

.....

[That's just too much for him to process.]

I am not thrilled to be trapped where I am, but at least I can look after you and Sam there.

My mun has considered sending me to a second place, if she can find one.

[hunting_trip]

[One day, he'll sit down and make Castiel watch It. That reaction ought to be priceless.]

And you're, what, just okay with that? One game's bad enough, two and it's like a mortgage. Two rules, Cas- use protection, and don't sleep with the crazy. Granted, this is a more loose definition of the term, but the principal still applies.

[He pauses, and then groans.]

Just- just stop talking, right now. I don't wanna know where she's planning on sending you. You're aware we're being watched, right? That's just like begging to give her ideas.

[doubtheaven]

After the place I recently left.. it really couldn't get worse.

I know we're being watched, Dean, but there's nothing we can do about it.

[hunting_trip]

But it's creepy. [He finally breaks down, and it's an almost petulant, pouty whine. A manly, manly whine. The manliest.]

I mean, it was one thing when you did it. You're you. But this? This is downright weird.

[Face. Palm.]

Any recommendations?

[doubtheaven]

On how to deal with your mun or where you can go?

I wish I could offer advice on either.

[hunting_trip]

Helpful, Cas. Really helpful.

[doubtheaven]

Sorry, Dean. With games slowly migrating to this new place, I'm a little uncertain of where to go, myself.

[hunting_trip]

[Sigh.]

Yeah. It's not your fault. I can't tell who'd coming and going anymore. Maybe that'll convince her to lay off for a while. Give time to let the dust settle, figure out what everyone's deal is, you know?


...So, how about you? How goes it in... angel land? Doing... whatever it is you do.

/slaps typing

[doubtheaven]

I am not currently in 'angel land'.

[But he's a bit amused.]

Actually, I wasn't doing so well in the last place my mun had me. I had been consumed by leviathan.

Now that I'm gone from that place, I'm in a new place. My mun has decided I should know until until the moment the last seal was broken and Lucifer was set free. It's kind of nice, actually, being that version of 'me' again.

/snickers quietly

[hunting_trip]

Ah. Yeah. I- uh. Heard about that. Haven't actually gotten to that point, yet. Can't say I'm looking forward to it.

[He's less than amused. Not fun times ahead, for sure. He's just starting to be tight with you, too, Cas.]

Good. That's good. Just... stay like that. Don't ever change. We've got enough problems as it is, without you going all AWOL and turning into someone other than yourself.

/just gives up on it lol

[doubtheaven]

I don't think change is avoidable, Dean. It's already meant to happen.

I don't mind staying like this, though, as long as I can.

/pat pat

[hunting_trip]

Hey. Don't say that. Whatever that was, that wasn't you. I'm not buying that crap for a second.

[Stubborn and in denial. He does it well.]

[doubtheaven]

Your faith in me is more than I deserve.

[hunting_trip]

Can we turn off the waterworks, now? It's getting a little estrogen-y up in here.

[doubtheaven]

[A pause.]

I'm not aware of any running water.

[hunting_trip]

[The fondest sigh ever. This is one of those shoulder patting moments.]

Figure of speech, Cas. Figure of speech.
