1. i thought it less like a lake and more like a moat [video; open]

[iwatchtjhooker]

Dean?

[Sam is looking a little befuddled, but not like he just now arrived. It's merely the face of concentration as he tries to work out what's happened. And how this thing works; he's managed not to lock it to Dean alone, because he's still thinking of it as a phone.]

Look, I don't know what's going on here, and I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking at, but it looks like you're here and have been for awhile. Not sure what that means, but if you're out there, I'd really like to know, man.

[He bites his lip.]

Oh and I can't find your car.

Comments

[rehymenator]

[ It's not exactly the tone he wants to strike, but Castiel laughs at Sam's comment. ]

You're anything but predictable, Sam Winchester.

[iwatchtjhooker]

[So unsure.]

Is that a good thing?

[rehymenator]

I find it to be, yes.

[ He sort of really missed you, Sam. Especially this you. ANgels don't hug, though. But they do compensate with lots of pointed staring. Staaaaare. ]

[iwatchtjhooker]

[It's a toss up, which would have been creepier. But Sam doesn't know about the other option.]

Oh, okay. Good, then. So, uh... how do you know Dean's hungover? You guys, like... party or something? [So dubious.]

[rehymenator]

You were here before, you know. A future version of you.

[ Thinking... ]

He's missed you.

[iwatchtjhooker]

Yeah, I've heard. I'm still not really clear on your relationship to... well, me. And Dean. [He frowns slightly.] He say that?

[rehymenator]

It's complicated. He prevented me from divulging a great deal to your mother. I can only imagine how he would feel about what I say to you.

[ Frown. ]

No. You expect him to?

[iwatchtjhooker]

You mean, about the future. [Frown.] Why. Is there something to tell?

And no, I wouldn't, hence the question.

[rehymenator]

There's always something to tell. You won't remember anything upon your return, though.

[iwatchtjhooker]

Oh. [Pause.] Then why not tell me?

[rehymenator]

I don't think it's worth your worry, when you couldn't do anything about it anyway.

[iwatchtjhooker]

[Sam shoots him a disbelieving look.]

Does that actually work on anyone? Would you be happy knowing I knew your future and wouldn't tell you?

[rehymenator]

No. It's not my place, Sam.

[iwatchtjhooker]

[He's trying not to be frustrated.]

Okay so... what can you tell me?

[rehymenator]

You're my friend for a reason. You're capable of a lot more than you think you are.

[iwatchtjhooker]

Okay. [Sam's not quite sure what to do with that.] Thanks?
