voice testing/torturing a new muse

[drsexymd]

[This song is playing over and over in the background. You're welcome.]

Someone help me.

It won't stop. I've been listening since she picked me up. At first I thought it was funny too but then it kept looping.

Is this for the Tuesday thing? Come on, Mun, you were laughing at that, I know you were - turn that song off, please, it stopped being funny a long time ago...

Dad - if by some minute snowball's chance you're actually still out there - I'm praying, right now. Ape-style. Get me out of here. This is unfair punishment!

[Disclaimer: not actually as distressed as he looks. As clued by the way he sits back after his little speech and begins unwrapping a boiled sweet.]

I could do better with my arms tied behind my back.

Talk about cruel and unusual...

[Sounds like Sam music. Well, drunk!Sam music. Something like that.]

apologises profusely for in-house 90s disco

[drsexymd]

More like trying too hard. If you really want to torment someone, you play this. [Snap.]

[arighteousman]

Oh hey. I remember that. Heh-- brings the junior high right back to ya.

[Were you trying to out-obnoxious Dean? Really?]

Chicks dug that in seventh grade, Gabe. I kid you not. [Don't b hatin]

[drsexymd]

You know, I never went to junior high. Seemed a little skeevy for someone my age. Ay.

[He pops the sweet in his mouth and gives you a sociable bob of the head. Of course he can't out-obnoxious Dean. In fact, he's going to pretend he never tried.]

So, new digs. Does headspace come with room and board?

[arighteousman]

Depends on the head you're in.

[The one Dean is in does some nice things for him. Some really, truly horrible things for him.]

Usually they come with mile-high heapings of humiliation, but once in a while you're thrown a bone.

[drsexymd]

Bahh, humiliation. That's child's play. [He sent you porn once. What is shame?]

As long as she doesn't drag any other angels kicking and screaming in here, you know what, I'm actually pretty on board with this. Lots of empty space in here, and no angry feathered friends to speak of. A guy can work with that.

[arighteousman]

It's not only the head you're in you've got to worry about, man.

[You don't get to sit there alone, jerk off, and ignore everyone. Not unless your player dictates it.]

I've seen Michael here.

[Not Lucifer, not yet.]

Already wearing me and primed for a beatdown when I know I never say 'yes.'

[throwablanketoverit]

HAH! That's a funny song.

[drsexymd]

[Sigh.] Honestly, the second I saw you I figured there must be a catch. But hey - thanks for the heads-up. At least he won't catch me with my pants down, right?

[Hesitant shuffle. He crunches the sweet, loudly. ...Aw, heck, he'll ask, at the risk of sounding a lot less aloof.]

So. We're cool now.

[arighteousman]

[Eyebrows shoot up, threatening to make sweet, tender union with Dean's hairline.]

You took one for the hometeam in a serious way. [Think of this as a coronation.] You're one of the good guys.

[Dead or not.]

So yeah. I'd say we're cool.

[drsexymd]

It's a funny multiverse, bugcat.

[throwablanketoverit]

[more giggles.] I'm Catbug! I like multiverses, cept when they hurt. [Flies up to eye level] What's your name?

[drsexymd]

[He shifts for a moment. Aaand right back to being smug.]

Great. And all I had to do was take a blade to the gut and etch my wings on a motel floor. Could have told me that a long time ago.

[He tosses another wrapped sweet in your general direction and turns away to take a casual glance around.] In any case, what with that whole sordid affair no longer being my problem, I'm thinking somewhere warm and sunny. Maybe I'll take a well-earned trickster's vacation someplace out of the way. Thoughts?

[arighteousman]

[That small flinch is all Gabriel's gonna get; the tiniest inclination that it hurts Dean to know this is one more guy that died for them. A coward at first, but a hero willing to stand up to his brother in the end.]

Dunno, but there's gotta be a couple island games out there somewhere.

[C'mon, Dean. You know you want to enable make a certain suggestion--]

Far out there.

[Damn.]

[drsexymd]

Well - you've got my agreement there.

Feel free to call me whatever you want, little guy. I have many names. [Waggles his fingers playfully.] Or you could just call me Loki.

[throwablanketoverit]

[giggles!] I like you, Loki! Let's be friends!

[drsexymd]

[He caught it. And he's not going to say anything more on the subject, at least. After all, he was prepared for what happened, and there's no point or fun in guilting Dean for it.]

Well, then, I'll just have to keep my eyes peeled for a pseudo-Hawaii or something. [Claps and rubs his hands together.] I figure I have some window shopping to do.

[drsexymd]

[An impossible hybrid with the attitude of a child. Well, it's not all that weird, after the things he's seen.]

Friends it is, bugcat. You sound like the type to like candy, right? Unless it'll make you puke. We'll see, I guess. [He holds out a red lollipop.]

[arighteousman]

[Or. A city. There's a city. And you like having sex right, Gabriel? If only Dean was ever into cooperating.]

Here's another warning-- soon as you do? It's going to have dinosaurs or smoke monsters or something about it that makes the whole thing terrible.

[The sad thing is Dean would love to be in a game filled with beasties. He can handle beasties.

Also wow belated but meant to mention Dean catches the candy. Right. Because. Gesture of good will. Wow. Good job. Writing skills A+++.]

[moondragon]

That shit is stupidly catchy. It shouldn't be.

Here. Have something comparably better. My mun's hooked on it.

*Cain's eyeing that sweet he's unwrapping though.*

[throwablanketoverit]

Candy! [TAKES IT YAY!] why would it make me throw up? [INTO HIS MOUTH IT GOES BEFORE HE GETS THE ANSWER!]

[drsexymd]

Well, the party don't start til something goes horribly wrong, right? Anyway, I don't really care where I end up. I have it in good faith that I can handle most anything that gets thrown my way, provided it's not Brother Lucy.

And this? Me being alive, here, right now? It's my best shot at getting the hell out of dodge before someone like Lucifer finds me.

[He looks pretty determined. So maybe it's the fate of people mixed up with the attic and the basement that you can never really drop your past like a hot potato. But he figures he can avoid it for a while.

Mun tips hat, having done the exact same thing not two days ago. Writing is hard. :(]

[drsexymd]

If you have an allergic reaction, don't mention who gave you the sucker. [Maybe he'll explode.]

[throwablanketoverit]

[WELP! Nothing is happening, just happy kitten sounds coming from Catbug as he eats it.] YUMMY!

[drsexymd]

Right? [He bobs just slightly to the music as it starts, then grins.]

Well, isn't that just peachy. I like their taste. [He pulls out another piece, and swizzles the wrapper in his hands a bit as if deciding what to do with it, then nonchalantly tosses it your way.]

Good call, buddy. And it got the blaring bus horn outta my head, too.
