Dean Winchester | 004 | video late Day 84

How do I get in touch with Mr. Sandman to tell him to get out of my freaking head?

[ Good evening, Cape Kore. Dean's been talking to some of his housemates and has put enough together to know that something weird's going on in Dreamland. ]

Whoever's snorting the dream dust, knock it off. And none of you are invited to my head, so keep out.

[ Running around in Charlie's dreams not too long ago was too much like what's going on now, though one weird thing sticks out. Well, weirder. ]

Whose fault is that city made out of rock candy? [ Or crystals. ] Can't you dream up people with faces next time?

I think it's safe to assume that most everyone here shares these sentiments.

[She doesn't look terribly thrilled with the situation, herself -- though addressing Dean in the first place is enough to put her in a sour mood these days, considering the company he's been keeping.]

I don't think invitations matter much, Deano.

[ A lot of shit's happened. People change, sort of. He's already done a lot of things he isn't proud of since he got here, and he can't take any of them back. ]

Maybe if I say it loud enough, it'll reach through to dream land. How's it on your end? You getting the same thing?

Yeah. Getting it in spades.

[Which, on that note, she really hopes he doesn't end up stepping into her dreams somehow, because that would be all kinds of embarrassing, considering he's the subject of at least one or two.]

I saw my dad. It was one of mom's dreams.

[ She should stay out of his too. He can't promise who'll feature in the embarrassing ones. If it's Meg, she'll be pissed. If it's Cas, Dean will want to vomit and brain bleach.

He winces for her and ducks his head. ]

Good dream? [ Doesn't make it hurt any less, but it does make a difference. ]

... yeah. It was a good dream.

[Better to focus on that than the stuff that's potentially mortifying.]

She was dreaming about him coming back from that job.

[You know the one, Dean.]

[ He does. ]

Right. One of those good until you wake up dreams.

Kinda wish I could go back to it, but -- that doesn't make it real. Only be torturing myself, I guess.

[She withholds a sigh, pressing her lips together.]

What about you? Seen anything interesting?

[ What? Rescuing Meg from torture, or watching the other Cas's wings fall apart? Or how about that totally weird dream he and Cas had where they were teenagers and made out? He's not chomping at the bit to talk about any of them, honestly.

His own dreams haven't been pretty either, and he wonders if that's because Cas hasn't been around to creep properly and keep them clean for him. His hesitation is plain, and he eyes her before he gives his head a small shake. ]

Nothing worth a sharing circle. [ Hunter talk for it's better if he doesn't talk about it. ]

I'm going to try some hex bags, see if that doesn't help, if we can find the stuff anyway. You want to be on lookout for supplies? Figure we gotta stock up you, your mom, me, the Cas's, M-- [ Whoops. ] Meg, and some extras maybe for people around town.

[Jo understands hunter speak. She might be a little more predisposed to talk about things than Dean is sometimes, but for the most part, she's started following the same line of thought. Sometimes, it's better just not to get into it. Sometimes it's better not to know.]

Sure. Just let me know what you need.

[All hex bags were a little different, after all, and that's one thing she'd never become proficient in. She pauses, fighting the urge to frown when he says Meg's name.]

If they help at all, it's worth the effort.

Worth a shot. I gotta dig a little to figure out the right stuff. Hell, we may not even have the ingredients. [ This is when he wishes Gabriel weren't such an annoying little prick, but they're so far from being able to work together right now. It would take another apocalypse. ]

These guys have to be using magic to get our juices flowing like this, right?

That's what I figure. Not much else that could be responsible for this, right?

[Magic, or maybe angels could have been responsible, but they were suffering from the overlapping dreams, too.]

And whatever it is, this magic is powerful enough to work on angels and demons, so it's gonna take some heavy-duty mojo to ward it off.

That's where I keep getting tripped up. [ That's hard to admit, but there it is. If only this stupid library was Bobby's library. ]

One thing I know is that on the other end of this somewhere are some guys in lab coats. [ Guy-shaped things, anyway. ] And that's good enough for me. We just gotta get our hands on one of 'em somehow.

Think that might be in the cards anytime soon?

[Because if it is? She and Dean might have their differences right now, but he's family all the same, and she wants to be counted in on that particular family outing.]

If we can get a hold of one of them, we could get all kinds of answers that have been giving people the slip since they got here.

No clue. I don't think it's easy to get any info from them. [ He pauses thoughtfully. ]

Though that Stane guy, the one claiming to be mayor, gives me the creeps.

I'm not much of a fan, either. I don't know much about him, but... just seems like a bad idea to trust anyone to declares themselves in charge of this place.

[She shifts uncomfortably.]

Common sense and all. Know anything about him, other than the fact that he's supposedly mayor?

Not so much, except he's from Germany and he was a security officer, and he's mostly done jackall other than keep the food together and organize stuff like the clubs.

Let's try to keep an eye on him. Maybe you can sweet talk something out of him.

[Both of her eyebrows go up as she cracks a smile.]

You askin' me to use my feminine wiles on him?

[ He grins back, this side of playful. ]

Well, I'm certainly not gonna use mine.

[She sighs heavily, putting a fair amount of melodrama behind it.]

Alright. We won't take that option off the table, anyway.

[ He smirks, and then it breaks into a real smile. ]

You're a trooper, Jo.
