[FUN GHOUL ➜ VIDEO 002]

[Ghoul doesn't look pissed when he turns in the video. In fact, he looks pretty damn serene despite the shit going on around here. There's a lit cigarette hanging out of his mouth when he addresses the camera, blowing smoke right at the screen.]

Where's Jesse? Put him on. No voice-only bullshit copout, I wanna see your face. I wanna see your fucking face. Show me. I wanna see it. There's a difference yanno? Real easy as pie way to tell. I'll let you all in on this sweet fuckin' secret. You listenin'? Get close. [He takes another drag, smirking the whole time. Antici......... pation is a real treat.]

I'm the pretty one.

You fucking leave him alone.

Or what? Y'gotta make it interestin', don't leave me hangin'.

Just -- piss off, alright? He's dealing with enough shit.

Yeah? Like what? Look, this is between me n' him. It's personal. You get it? 'Course you do. You been through it. Now it's our turn. Ain't nothin' gonna happen t'him, promise you.

[ JUST AN ANNOYED SIGH AND HE DISCONNECTS. ]

So - did you really expect for this to work, or... [ Is he on audio to make Ghoul mad? Yes. ]

[You sunovabi--] Not the only plan I got, gorgeous. You gonna let me see, or am I gonna hunt you down?

Aw, baby, all y'gotta do is look in a mirror.

That's old news. Been there, done that. I wanna see this. New and shiny and apparently oh so handsome. All you gotta do is press a button. I'm bein' so sweet t'you, come on. [The nice isn't going to last forever. Sweet gets sour real fast around here.]

[ Radio silence, then: ] Yeah, well. Don't get too jealous, I think we both know who's better lookin'.

[ Here, have a video of Jesse's vaguely disturbed expression. He hadn't actually realized how similar they look. ] Was gonna say come find me, but y'know? After being kneed in the balls and almost knifed, I think m'good on this particular brand'a crazy.

[He was going to be a cocky asshole and cut in with some snappy comment, but that goes completely out the window when he sees his face. His face. It's so much more real than looking at Galen. What the fuck is this. What is--]

He went easy on ya. The almost is a dead giveaway, he must like your face. [Ghoul laughs, low but amused.]

Great, that's what I wanted t'hear. [ Jesse grouches, rubbing at his face. A beat. ] ... Bet we could really pull some Parent Trap shit, though.

[That-- ... that is actually one intriguing idea. It could be really hilarious. It also helps that they have the advantage of neither of them having BRIGHT-ASS MOTHERFUCKING RED HAIR! He switches the feed to private.]

... Yeah? Bet we could. Be more believable if it seemed like we didn't get along so good. No one expecting that shit from us. Damn.

[ ... Man, this guy is pretty decent at ideas. Damn. ]

Jesus, totally. Hey, m'pretty good at the public hate-lationship thing, I think. We could make it work.

... Just not on Galen. Yeah?

[Damn right he is. Glad you agree. Ghoul's actually pretty excited about all this potential.]

Heh, yeah. Alright. Your boy's safe. Don't think he could take it. [He nods, smirking. It falters for a split second.] Not my crew, either. For your sake. Unless we're real careful, huh?

Nah, course not. Fair's fair, baby. [ Maybe Jesse doesn't have a crew, but he gets it. ] What'd you have in mind? Anything? Or are we brainstorming?

Brainstorming. Definitely brainstorming. We need easy targets, first. We need a method. I say we pic someone. Get to know 'em a bit. Watch close. Let each other know, give a signal, and swoop in for some good, ol' mindfucking.

Man, you are devious. Alright, alright, easy targets. Who 'round here ain't all that on top of things? You been here longer than me, I bet you scoped the place out, yeah?

[He just grins.] I got names. We'll get together, you and me, neutral ground. Hash this shit out. No one touches you on my word.

Actually, I think he's prettier...

Ain't nobody asked you, bitchpudding. You get a good enough, up close look? You completely sure on that one?

Oh yes. Oh yeah. Real cute. Smells better too.

You tryin' t'make me jealous, P? It's working a little too well. Take it back! Take it all back, I just can't take it.

Maybe you should pay more attention to me. [HAIRFLIP]

Maybe you should spend less time chasin' after imitations when you got the real thing at home watchin' yo Kids! Tearin' this family apart with your cheatin', shit.

I ain't cheated a day in my life! Do you doubt me? Hey! Do you doubt me?

[Best way to answer that is to not answer that. Too bad he's not always about what's best. Ghoul just fixes him with a smile.] If I say yes, you gonna prove me wrong? 'Cause I'd say yes to see that, Baby.

What? How do you prove that you haven't cheated?

Welp. Guess that answers my question, huh?

What?! No! You rigged it!

More like you fell for it. Don't pin this on me, it's all you.

I feel like you tryin to weasel something outta me, so howsabout you just come out with it, and I'll tell you go or no go!

[Wow, no. Ghoul's suddenly on the defensive.] No weaselin', you're just paranoid as fuck. Just makin' sure you don't like him better. Gotta make sure.

[His tone implies he's joking, but... there's some truth to it. Gotta make sure.]

Pfft. Maybe he's a shinier model, but I'm way used to my old one by now.

[ So this is just about the most awkward thing she's ever had to do, but she still feels bad enough that she switches on her feed. Have the most embarrassed smile ever. ]

Hey, so uh-

[ How exactly is she supposed to explain the situation? As vaguely as possible, apparently. ]

Look, I'm sorry about the whole Christmas party thing. Cas is...protective when he wants to be, I guess. Anyway, that's my the point, point is, I should have handled it. So yeah, sorry.

[Awwwwwwwwh, well look who it is. Ghoul's grin gets even wider if that's even possible. Look at this.]

No need for sorries. All's forgiven, Sweet Pea. Don't you worry none about that. I been through worse. [However.] Still... there is a tiny, minor matter of something promised and still owed.

[ Smiles, there are smiles everywhere. She can't help it, okay? His dumb charm works on someone, it seems. ]

Well, good. I really don't know what got into him, but still. Not everyone I know is a psycho, I swear. [ Debatable, at least in terms of family, but whatever. Details. More important is the slightly coy look she has on her face as she raises an eyebrow at him. She has a pretty good idea of what he's getting at, but she plays it casual all the same. ] Oh yeah? What's that?

[Damn right it does.] Got my share of psychos, sweetheart. Don't worry none.

[As for the promise, he's just gonna waggle those eyebrows.] You owe me a kiss. He watchin'? Let him see this, I want that kiss.

[ Watching? Probably not. Hopefully not, if he still has that overprotective act going on. She's not going to let that ruin her fun though. ]

Really? Well I suppose it's only fair, given all the trouble you went through. It'd be just rude not to.

[ Oh, you're not the only one who can get the flirt on, Ghoul. Anna might be rusty but she'll still bring it. ]

[His entire expression brightens. He can stand to ease up on the smooth for some genuine happy.] Yeah?! No shit? You mean it? Where I gotta go to collect?

[ So maybe that grin is a little infectious, so what. It's not like Anna's got a big stupid grin of her own to match- except oh wait, yeah she does. ]

I think you've put up with enough of my weird family members for one lifetime, I'll come to you.

[ She's still going to cling to the cool, collected response while she can, so the response comes nice and casual, with a small shrug and everything. Just...ignore aforementioned stupid smile. ] Got an address?

Delivery. I like it. House number five. Don't keep me waitin' too long, honeybee. I get so antsy.

Oh, don't worry, I'm nearby anyway.

[ Which is....a huge lie, but details. At any rate there's only a few minutes of time wasting after she cuts off the feed, and then she's on the doorstep knocking away lightly at the door.

She should really stop taking the risk of travelling like this during the day, but old habits die hard, and walking is so slow, anyway. She's being cautious about it, anyway. She's almost certain no one has seen her so far. ]

[Nearby, huh. That's convenient. He's not waiting long at all before he hears that knock at the door. And then he's up and opening it and damn if she isn't one classy lady. Pretty and clean and definitely holding some fiery heat under all that nice.

Ghoul leans an arm against the door frame, smiling away.]

Well, hey there, beautiful. Here to borrow a cup o'sugar?

Well, if you've got one spare I wouldn't mind it.

[ This sort of thing shouldn't work, the cheesy lines and oh so smooth leaning and all of that. Anna's a smart girl, and she's been around a long time.

But he's got a nice smile, and sometimes cheesy is kind of the best method, so she barely suppresses a grin as she gives a small shrug. ]

I believe there's a debt I need to pay off though, first.

[No shame in cheesy lines, so long as they at least ring true. Anna is definitely beautiful and Ghoul is definitely willing to give her some sugar.

He leans forward as soon as she mentions that debt and finally takes that kiss. Either he's still a little scared of her family, or he's just being a freakin' gentleman, but it's chaste. Tender. Sweet. Nothing forced and nothing underhanded.

Just a mistletoe kiss sans mistletoe.]

[ Given what happened last time Anna's almost a little wary, if only because she's half convinced someone ~~cough Cas or Gabriel cough~~ is going to show up and put the proverbial fear of God in him again.

But they don't, and she leans in to return the surprisingly sweet kiss, taking a short step forward to close the distance. It's nice, in ways she hasn't really experienced in a long time, and oh so human - which is exactly what she's aiming for.

Still, all good things must end, and as she pulls away (though, notably, not nearly as much as she could do) Anna is still smiling away. ]

So, am I in the clear now?
