[ Dean is making this brief for a variety of reasons. But he sadly doesn't care enough to make this anything but video - audio and text just seem like far too much effort, and so Dean can be seen boozing it up with a half empty bottle of whiskey he received from the gods.

Someone's been drunk a lot lately.

Big fuckin' deal. ]

So, I kind of happen to have an angel buddy who's in need of a lay. Anyone want to lend a hand?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Good then she's doing her job, right? Mildly annoy people with dick jokes and sassy comments? That's what demons do.]

Thank god, because I've heard enough already. I do have to ask, though: did you get whinier gradually over time or did it hit you all at once after some sort of traumatic event?

Maybe it was your bitch ass face showing up here that did me in, you think of that?

[ He called you the b-word again, did you hear him? DID YOU HEAR HIM? ]

Are you sure it wasn't the unresolved angel fetish?

[She can't hear you over the sound of your desperation.]

[ If he could murder you through the stupid network he would do it. He would. ]

How'd you know it was the wings that did me in.

[The feeling's mutual.]

Just an educated guess based on the great combo of your ego and hypocrisy.

Like you wouldn't know anything about egos and bullshit.

Takes one to know one, right?

Don't compare me to you.

Or what, you'll cry about it on the network?

Besides, too late.

I'm not crying about shit. But i'd be happy to fill a few people in on your little condition.

Sure.

Oh no, I'm shaking. Somehow I really doubt anyone here cares, Dean. New setting, new rules.

Yeah, i'm sure everyone'd be real glad to hear it.

I know this is something you've never experienced, but people actually like me, Dean. You might let your prejudices get in the way of everything from common sense to basic decency, but so far everyone I've told has been a lot better a person than you are.

[Her words are chosen carefully here because she's very aware this is a public feed.]

You think I care if people like me? Like i'm trying to make besties? Friendship bracelets might be your new deal but they've never been mine.

Is that a thing?

[ Your delivery of One (1) Awkward Question, right on time. ]

I don't think Dean has one of those.

[Oh Castiel, never change.]

Believe me, I saw how he looked at Anna.

[Not that she really blames him, but that's a whole other issue.]

Well. That was Anna. This is different.

[ Please ignore that flash of hurt in his eyes right there. Yep. Thank you.

But yes, well done for confirming that there is a 'this', Cas. A+ Good job, bro. ]

[She's so not ignoring anything, because she'd pretty much just been teasing Dean because it was easy and fun rather than that she really thought there was something going on. But wow, she might have to send Sam a message here soon.

Her tone is more carefully gentle and sympathetic when she responds.]

How is it different?

[ Look he's switching to private for the first time ever because he has to keep this from Dean. What this should prove, of course, is that he should also keep it from Ruby, but Cas is extra naive and fragile right now and most of all dangerously trusting in all the wrong ways, so guess who just became his new confidente? Congrats.

He wrings his hands, briefly. ]

I believe in this case it has something to do with the... Um. [ Come on, Cas. ] I don't fit the necessary parameters.

[Castiel no, you poor innocent demon-trusting angel. Not that Ruby minds, because this is entirely useful to her.]

You mean that you have a male vessel and not a female one?

Precisely. It can't be helped.

You must be familiar with the human preoccupation for gender preference yourself, as a demon. After all, you chose yours specifically, did you not, for its own alluring properties.

[ The more to woo Sam with. ]

I'd offer to loan you mine, but I think Dean would have an aneurysm and I do have some shame.

[She's so glad it was Sam and not Dean that was marked as Lucifer's vessel.]

I choose my vessels for specific reasons, yes, though not just because they're attractive.

[Mostly being that she was a woman in life and so prefers female vessels when she has the chance. It doesn't hurt that there's no soul in this one.]

You angels just pick whoever's a match and agrees, right?

Consent is the only priority, correct, once the bloodline is assured. There is something to be said for possessing the body of an adult and not a child, however, but male or female--it hardly matters.

Mattered.

This vessel is mine now. If I were to give it up, the sacrifice its owner made would be disrespected.

[All interesting information, even if it may not be super relevant or useful here. You never know, though.]

It does seem pretty fitting for you. What sacrifice do you mean; saying yes?

The sacrifice he made was more than that. [ Castiel suddenly blinks, quickly, and averts his gaze downward. He feels guilty about it. ] He gave up his life and his family, and any hope of ever returning to his wife, or watching his daughter grow up.

I took his life, and everything which that meant, but worst of all, I forced the choice upon him, by involving him in it in the first place. I took his freedom. I took everything. Like a demon.

That is something I have to carry.
