video.

[ Dean's got his device set up so that this isn't all Blair Witch Project (thank god) but he's got a jar of his own, which he's... gently shaking around a couple of fireflies in. Not like Sid and his toys or anything here, considering they're still alive, but he's cheerfully giving them a rock and roll. ]

I don't get the bug thing, I really don't--

[ After which he sets the jar down with a slight clatter, where the fireflies can finally carry on flitting about. ]

I mean, this is like crack to kids, right? Catching these things, watching 'em fly around? Never understood the appeal. [ Says the man with fireflies in a jar but he's curious okay, don't judge. ]

And then with the warm and fuzzies... I mean- C'mon. Never known a God to offer that up without some kinda hand being played.

[ Aw yeah, now we're cookin' with gas. That happy moment when someone agrees with you. And he's guessing you aren't agreeing with the 'fireflies are silly' business. ]

glad to know someone agrees. this sorta thing isnt usually handed out for free

[ Clever lad. ]

Isn't usually? More like isn't ever. There's always a catch and they love to lay the hooks in the sweetest enticement.

[ While it's true that Lucifer knows a thing or two about temptations, he's usually fairly upfront about his dealings. At least, that's what he'll say about the matter. ]

Glad to hear you aren't buying it.

[ He tries. ]

theres probably one god out there thatll make the argument that they just do it to get their jollies but ill believe it when i see it.

but yeah no, this? i dont believe for a second that it isnt coming with some kinda strings attached.

More than a few actually

[ Conversation for another time. ]

That is a constant since the beginning of creation. The ones who offer hope are particularly given to that trick. Easier to lure in mindless sycophants when you promise them what they want to hear.

[ Tell him more!! ]

sure except its real easy to get addicted to that kinda crap yourself.

Which? Sycophants or hope?

sycophants, but you could probably make the same argument for hope

Oh! Yes, gods love to collect sycophants, it's like that mortal game about collecting all the ... well, you know what I mean.

On the other side you have mortals and their desperate need for hope, often times grabbing at any available straw without fully vetting what it entails.

[ Oh he's going to eat those words. ]

Anyway ... long story short, good on you for being suspicious of our little insect infestation.

that mortal game?

[ Buddy you just outed yourself. Like, twice over. ]

but yeah i know what you mean. be pretty ashamed of myself if i wasnt suspicious.

[ Outed himself? He never lies about it. People just usually don't believe him when he tries to explain it to them. ]

Yes, you know the one with the odd little creatures and you ... never mind.

Is that why you have a collection of your own then?

yeah yeah i know. i dont play it, but i know

the fireflies? sure. wanted to see what the fuss was about.

And?

Discover anything earth ... err, cave shattering?

nothing apart from the obvious. guessin i need to catch a few more before i start singing show tunes

[ Showtunes? Hopefully you have the voice for it Dean. ]

A few more? Huh. Is that a scientific conclusion you've come to or are you responding to a compulsion?

[ Oh lord someone stop him now. ]

pretty sure less is more doesnt come into play when the good times roll.

[ Or make sure to get a good video! ]

Oh bloody hell, you're already affected, aren't you?

[ We'll see what we can do. ]

hey! you wouldnt know for sure either way now would you

Think I'll have a fairly good idea when the other shoe drops.

ive got a handle on both shoes

That's what you lot usually think, just before you look down and realize both shoes have gone walkies on you.

[ ...... crowley is that you. ]

its that desperate need we have to be in control. makes us feel all. well. warm and happy inside.

[ Worse ... so worse. ]

Fairly certain that's the fireflies talking.

[ It's always worse. ]

nah thosere just the facts. us mortals kinda like thinking weve got a chance in hell.

[ The irony. ]

If you only realized. Mortals built the damn place, they just have a hard time accepting that responsibility. Not that Dad's too helpful in that regard.

[ GODDAMMIT. ]

angels. cant live with em. cant live without em.
