Dean Winchester | 004 | video late Day 84

[venatical]

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'm just putting out the Not Welcome sign before anyone gets any ideas. Besides, you oughta stay out of mine anyway. I don't want to get arrested. [ He gives her a tight smile. His days of hitting on the maybe legal are long past him now. ]

[intelligently]

Because that was exactly what I wanted to do. [ Nope. And creep ] I don't like people in my dreams and I don't want to be in anyone elses. Only sick people would enjoy it. [ Like Peter stupid Hale ]

[venatical]

Wow, don't sell yourself too much or anything. [ Though now he's concerned for her. She's too young for whacked out nightmares. ]

Don't have a way to keep people out yet, sweetheart. [ Not said in a creepy voice, more a semi-condescending one. Improvement! ] Working on it though. In the meantime, coffee?

[intelligently]

[ She would agree on that! Stupid Peter Hale ]

At least someone's working on it. [ Which is a relief. He's the first she's heard of about that ] Though I'm not sure how good coffee will be. I think staying awake forever's out of the question.

[venatical]

Doesn't have to be forever, just until we get something worked out. [ If they do, but it's not time yet to let this girl down. ]

What's your name?

[intelligently]

What if the dreams last forever? [ She needs to stop overthinking, but it's not a good situation ]

Lydia.

[venatical]

Forever's a long time. This won't last that long.

I'm Dean. The best thing you can do in a place like this is keep your eyes open, stay sharp, and don't let them get to you. You can't outsmart 'em if you're busy freaking out.

[intelligently]

And you're used to outsmarting people you can't see? [ Or haven't. It works. But she's used to just being smart, not outsmarting anyone ]

[venatical]

Sweetheart, this is the crap I do for a living back home. You don't want to know the kinds of things I've outsmarted.

[ Or happened to have been lucky to survive or outlive or almost accidentally kill. He sounds all confidence, though. ]

[intelligently]

Maybe I don't, but I've only got your word for it. [ Which she guesses she'll have to trust but she doesn't like it ]

[venatical]

[ He shrugs. ] And it's no skin off my nose if you don't want to listen.
