[ figuring out how to use the device isn't the hard part, no, it's swallowing the fact that either purgatory changed on him in what could only be described as seriously trippy as shit way, or he's in yet another new dimension. so have dean, wonderland, covered in dirt and grime from head to toe. it doesn't take squinting to notice the obvious splashes of blood either, though all of it's dried as if he hasn't changed his clothes in a while...

in his hand is a massive weapon; axe-like in shape, with a blade made of something unrecognizable but decidedly dangerous. ]

Alright, listen up. This is how it's gonna go; whoever thought this-- [ he gestures vaguely around with the tip of his weapon. ] -- was a great idea? Hand up now. You and I are gonna have a couple words, and how pretty they end up bein' depends entirely on you. [ a threat is laced in every single word. ]

Or I can always just start demandin' answers-- [ you know the violent way. purgatory kinda rubs off on you after a while. ] -- 'cause you know what? I don't have time for this. Not today. [ not when one minute benny had been going on about something or another and now the vampire isn't anywhere to be seen and his search for cas is interrupted.

which leads him to adding, after a pause; ]

Cas, if you're here for some messed up reason, lem'me know. Same for you, Benny.

[ end feed. ]

[Yeah, she didn't figure he'd tell her. Even if they were close enough that he might share, she also knows he isn't liable to say anything in general. It's okay, though. He'll either let it slip sooner or later, or she'll find out from someone else. She's not sweating it.

Her look becomes a pointed one.]

Which is why I said people are saying it's Wonderland. So far all I'm seeing is some weird-ass place where everybody wants to play nice with each other, monsters alike. [A thoughtful pause.] And a talking lizard. That was a new one.

[She sighs softly and meets his gaze evenly once more.]

Okay, so should I take a number for the line of folks who want to see you? The sooner you do what you have to do to believe I'm me, the easier this whole talking thing we're doing is going to probably going to get.

[ and a talking lizard.

okay then. ]

Playing nice with monsters? Yeah, that ain't gonna fly. [ he'd made his exceptions, but all bets are off in this place. unless he know 'em, dean's really not in the mood to be giving chances to something that could and most likely will turn on him the moment they can.

dean scoffs. ]

Is that actual patience I'm hearing?

[naturalbornleader]

[She rolls her eyes.]

Bite me. I'm trying that whole maturity thing I keep hearing about. Really not seeing what the big deal is so far. It kinda blows.

[Her easy-going smirk is back.]

And you try telling everyone else that playing nice won't fly. I haven't started drinking the Kool-Aid and don't plan on it. In fact [she holds up a book for a second before lowering it once more] I've been studying up for when one of those freaks finally shows its true colors and turns on us. [Her grin grows a bit.] Or in case Aiden and Jackie ever show up. Being one-up on those two never happens. This is my chance.

Never claimed it to be a great time.

[ trust him. immaturity had been his gig for a good long time until shit had really hit the fan big time. he still finds it in himself every now and then, so she's bound to as well.

and at least she has a positive attitude going for her right now, it's a nice change of pace from purgatory. ]

Your chance, huh? Just don't do anything dumb to score big, alright?

[naturalbornleader]

Don't worry. I promised you I wouldn't go looking for trouble and I meant it. No killing monsters just because they're monsters. Only when they start stirring up trouble. [Which they'll do. Eventually. Because they're monsters.

She grins.]

I'm just prepping for the inevitable. Promise.

[Speaking of which. She pauses long enough to glance down at her notes then back to Dean.]

Have you ever heard of a homunculus?

[ganking]

[ which they'll definitely do. but they act now, they'll be the bad guys. such is the joyous hunter life, even dean doesn't always have a problem with that, either.

for now though, he looks satisfied with the answer. ]

And that's smart.

[ being ready for whatever whenever. he's hearing a whole lot of i'm not bad, i won't do anything from the demonic end of the spectrum which isn't leaving him feeling anymore comfortable.

but cue brow raise. ]

Uh, you mean hommus?

[naturalbornleader]

[It's only by sheer force of will that Krissy doesn't literally facepalm at his answer while simultaneously bursting out laughing. Her lips do twitch but she manages to keep the chuckling at bay. The guy's been through a lot, no matter what he's been up to, and teasing him probably isn't going to help his mood any.]

Yes, Dean. I want to know if you have any handy recipes for mashed up chickpeas. Thought I might make some. [Okay, so the sarcasm probably isn't the greatest idea either but at least it's accompanied with a caring grin. She hopes that helps because it's the best she can manage. He sort of walked right into that one.]

And no. When I got here, someone told me about a homonculus that's here. They're some kind of genetically engineered superhuman or something. Faster, stronger, I don't know what else. Information on them is sketchy at best. [She shrugged.] Wasn't sure if they were from some place else or if I just hadn't heard of them before, which seemed pretty impossible considering how many things were listed on those pop quizzes Victor liked to give. [Is there bitterness in her tone at the mention of the ass who had her father killed? Maybe a little. But she shakes it off quickly enough.] Guess I should keep digging, either way.

[ he could go for some chickpeas right now, or anything really. it's been.... a long time since he's had anything near a decent meal. but!! sounds like hummus wasn't the answer she was looking for, yet it leaves dean smirking some just because.

but when she presses on, the smile fades with every word. ]

So you haven't run into it? Who told you 'bout that stuff? Could always squeeze a few extra answers out, and all.

[ since this is sounding like something he'd want tabs on himself. but then, most things here are, so far. ]

Could ask Sam, too. Make him do his geeky thing with books and stuff.

video - why no i didn't answer this from the wrong journal shh you saw nothing

[naturalbornleader]

Some guy named Ed. Said the guy was a friend of his or something. [Krissy arches an eyebrow, smirking slightly.] And no way are you snatching this out from under me, Dean. You start squeezing for answers, I want in.

[With that being said, she glances at the books in front of her then back to Dean.]

As for Sam, if he's willing to help, I'm all for it. The whole research thing has never really been my schtick. [A pause then, casually] Oh, and I can't make any promises they'll have hummus but there's a diner around here that actually makes pretty decent burgers. If you wanted to grab one, sometime. [Because she doesn't care she just saw you back home, she's missed you here... and that's as close as she's getting to admitting it.]
