I... apologize for how scarce I have been.

[ there is a few hundred pen dots, or well not so many ]

It may be strange to say, but the castle is a welcoming sight after the recent events.

What? After the dinosaurs? Or some other events that I've not been paying attention to?

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

Yes them... [ don't judge him for being slow B| ]

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

[You're lucky he likes you, Cas] Those were rather unsettling. I'm glad we're rid of them.

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

[ brb feeling special, only not. Have a small "mmm" noise ]

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

[Long pause] You alright there, Cas? You sound more stoic than usual.

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

...I am fine.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Hmm.

Remind me to get you drunk again soon. I think you're overdue.

Cas

[rocksalting.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't worry about it. You wouldn't be the only one avoiding me.

Dean

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

It is not entirely intentional on my part... there has been a lot I needed to think about.

Cas

[rocksalting.livejournal.com]

... Yeah. I know.

Sam told me about Alastair.

Dean

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

[ silence ]

How much did he tell you?

Cas

[rocksalting.livejournal.com]

Said he came back, almost killed me, put you outta commission -- then he did that demon-eject thing and saved our asses. ... Only Sam said he's dead. Not back in Hell, but dead.

... Don't tell me he's been practicin' since I last remember, Cas.

Dean

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

...He has, not only that he has been... drinking demon blood as well.

Ruby's blood.

Were the dinosaurs trippy for you?

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

They were, however I'll admit my mind was focused on someone else rather than the creatures.

[overninelives.livejournal.com]

Were you keeping people out of trouble? That's kind of like your job, r [marked out >> ]

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

[ that's cute Claire ] Yes.

[overninelives.livejournal.com]

That's good. Though I'm sure people are going to have fun telling their friends an angel saved them from a dinosaur.

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

I wonder how many would believe them.

Castiel

[sent_farfaraway]

Have you managed to talk to Sam?

Ruby

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

I have.

Castiel

[sent_farfaraway]

[bit of relief]

I made a note to you, but I think the whole dinosaurs thing trumped that announcement.

[a pause]

How've you been? I mean... thanks, for the whole - when I had been drinking.

Ruby

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

I had to keep someone safe, her protection was more important.

...

I have been well.

Castiel

[sent_farfaraway]

Right, I mean that's what you do.

[another long pause]

The castle should come up with a different plan other than turning us human before things go horrible. It's sort of a precursor to failure in a way.

Ruby

[asangelsfly.livejournal.com]

Hmm, perhaps.
