[Hey, look! Your resident wicked witch isn't looking like he's out for blood today! Yay! Actually, he's almost…suspiciously pleased, and given the fact that the beanie he's wearing is kind of horrible and dorky, it probably has nothing to do with that… Right?]

Now this is more like it. Random useful items! I'd love to negotiate for some books, if anyone’s come across any real ones. In the meantime...

[He gently rattles the jar of bees, just enough to show it off -- poor things didn't need to be bothered any more than they already were, having been stuffed in their glass prison.]

I'd suggest that anyone hanging around Hope’s temple leaves in the next, oh… Ten minutes? That should be enough. Especially if you're allergic to bees. I'm leaving an offering for our dear, beloved god.

[BEEEEEEEEES!!]

...I'm not sure what the metabolism has to do with that. [More weird dietary bs, sounds like. Interesting. Gotta wonder if this guy's cursed.]

I'm pretty sure. I've grown fond of my bees. They're mine.

[strangelic]

I don't know what else you'd call it. Um. A healing factor?

But I... I'd like to see them. Would that be okay? I could talk to them for you.

video;

[purpleknee]

Oh, I see. But you're still put together wrong? Maybe you heal too fast.

[Warrick narrows his eyes at the screen, grip tightening around the jar. Hrmn...]

In person? As long as you didn't take them from me.

video;

[strangelic]

I wouldn't take them from you. I just...miss them. Don't you miss them?

video;

[purpleknee]

...Why are you all obsessed with bees? Is there something I'm missing?

video;

[strangelic]

They're industrious, and the hum. Hummm hum hum humm. Bzz bzz. What could be better than that?

video;

[purpleknee]

Um.

[all these bee fetishists... what does he do]

Sorry, I'm not really...into that. I'm more about the peace of a quiet library.

video;

[strangelic]

Hm. I like libraries as well, but they aren't really quiet. Perhaps you actually like the hum of a quiet library?

video;

[purpleknee]

[stares]

Sure. Just -- Yeah, sure, okay. Why not. Yes.

video;

[strangelic]

You don't sound certain?

video;

[purpleknee]

Libraries are quiet enough! You don't need to make that weird, too!

[Warrick takes a deep breath, trying to reign his anger back in.]

However, since you promise not to take my bees, fine. You can...talk to them.

video;

[strangelic]

There's nothing weird about liking libraries. Or bees.

[ Such an angry person. ]

I'd like that very much, thank you. Is there anything you'd like me to tell them for you?

video;

[purpleknee]

No, but you don't need to talk about their hum.

[Libraries are so good, but obsessing over the intricacies of their noise is a little...out there. He doesn't have time for it.]

...No. But I have the right to change my mind! Since they're my bees. [nnnnh] Ask if they like libraries.

video;

[strangelic]

I can do that. Although I should warn you, bees aren't very good at reading. Or being trapped inside. Flying into closed windows is very frustrating.

video;

[purpleknee]

Yeah, I'm familiar.

[flying.........]

Tell them it's a big library and I can read to them and steal flowers for them, if they want.

video;

[strangelic]

Umm... Yes, I can do that. I think they'd like that very much. Especially being read to.

[ Not the flowers, Cas? ]

Can I come now?

video;

[purpleknee]

[BIG SIGH...]

Yes, fine. But remember -- I'm definitely going to make you regret it if you break your promise!

video;

[strangelic]

I won't. I don't break promises any more.

[ But uh, if it's okay then this angel will reappear right there, just behind him, with a flutter of feathers. That's how he rolls. ]

[purpleknee]

[Warrick sighs, shaking his head and muttering to himself as he goes to return his attention to the temple.]

Yeesh, this guy has probleEEAUGH FRAKKING FAIRIES, WHY --

[why]

Don't do that without telling someone you can! What's wrong with you?!

[strangelic]

[ Castiel just squints, calm as a sunny day, and keeps to his space rather than closing the distance, which might seem threatening. ]

I did ask if it was okay should I come now.

[ Not the flying stuff. Why would he mention that? ]

[purpleknee]

[opens mouth

closes it

wild gesturing with hand not holding bees]

Why are you like this? I meant the -- the appearing out of nowhere! It scares people! If I were my sister, you'd be a hat right now!

[strangelic]

I'd... Is your sister some kind of witch?

[ He's just so calm, and yet frowning sincerely. He'd be a hat? Really? That sounds awfully inconvenient. ]

[purpleknee]

No, she's a haberdasher -- yes, she's a witch. And she's not the only one.

[So don't talk shit about witches, his glare says.]

[strangelic]

So you're a witch as well...but you don't know any spells that help you to speak with bees? That's okay, I suppose.

[ He smiled. ] Besides, I can't imagine you ever needed to before.

[purpleknee]

[MORE JERKY GESTURES UGH]

I told you already, I'm a healer.

[how is he supposed to talk to bees!!! Anyway, let him steady his bee jar between both hands and show Castiel.]

Bees, weird guy. Weird guy, bees. Go on, tell him everything's under control!
