.oo1 / video + action

Who: Castiel (the cool one),
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: The Marsiva
When: January 20th, late morning.

[ waking up confused isn't necessarily anything particularly new for castiel, but generally speaking in that case he's usually hungover, and when the fog clears he's in his bed, somewhere safe and familiar, not somewhere, well - like this. immediately he's alert and awake, feeling under his pillow for a knife that isn't there, sharp, instinctual panic burgeoning in his gut, but he controls it. you better bet he's got no idea he's being watched, too.

it's peaceful. this place reminds him of heaven, with its clean, sleek design and cool, quiet atmosphere, but he doesn't trust it any more than he trusts heaven. tense and wary, one hand flies immediately to his throat, then he's pulling it back to look at is as if he's expecting to see something there, but it's clean, and when he tugs up his shirt there's no blood there either, no bullet holes, no gaping wounds, only the same old scars. castiel stands, runs both hands through his unkempt hair, and eases in a steadying breath. he's a rangy looking thing, with a lean, hungry look about him, overgrown scruff and hair but hey - at least he's clean. cleaner than he's been in a long while. and someone did him the service of mending the long worn holes in his jeans and canvas jacket so that's.. nice. i guess.

all right, inventory first. his knife and handgun are both missing, naturally, but that doesn't mean he has to be happy about it. sitting again on the edge of his bunk, in his pockets he finds a mostly full pack of cigarettes with two joints stuffed in with them, a blue plastic bic lighter, a half bottle of pills, a two month old supply list, creased and folded, and a bottlecap. not too much of use when it comes to keeping yourself alive. exhaling in a puff of air, he stuffs it all back into his pockets, even the list and the bottlecap, and gets to his feet again. might as well pick around, right?

and by pick around i mean find the cafeteria almost instantly and gawp in awe at all of the food. ]


.. you're kidding me.

[ when you live in a world where things like toilet paper are scarce treasures, you really learn to appreciate food. there is zero hesitation before cas is all but diving at it like a man starved, picking at everything indiscriminately, eating and drinking and eating some more. he doesn't sit, only hovers near the counters like a buzzard over roadkill, and you'd better bet he's filling his pockets, too, with everything and anything he can fit.

all right, so maybe this isn't so bad. he should probably be wary of the food and all, but it's far too late for that. feel free to stumble across him/interrupt him at any point, he has no idea he's on candid camera. ]

Please don't choke.

[It's the first thing that comes out of her mouth when she watches the broadcast. He's eating way too fast.]

[Video] have a sickly japanese chick for starters

[Oh, there's a familiar face. And a familiar voice, but...

...not a familiar person. Not the way he's acting. Nevertheless, after a moment, she decides to make sure.]


Castiel...?
child_of_bhaal: (what now)

[personal profile] child_of_bhaal 2016-01-20 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oops.]

Sorry! I didn't mean to startle you. Um, this is broadcasting. I can see you on my comm.
mikangirl: (who's there?)

[Holy shit. You're a welcome familiar face, but what happened to you? He's so far different from the Cas she remembers that she exercises a little caution.]

The food's not going anywhere. You can slow down.

[Let's see if he finds her familiar, first.]
child_of_bhaal: (okay then)

[personal profile] child_of_bhaal 2016-01-20 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[She totally understands. It's the weirdest thing.]

You should have been given one too. It's probably somewhere around where you woke up. At least, that's where mine was.
therewerefifty: (oh it's you.  um. hi.)

is it is it really

[personal profile] therewerefifty 2016-01-20 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[Makie blinks, and the uncertainty is obvious for a moment before she smooths it over and retreats into formal courtesy.]

I'm sorry, sir. We knew each other once. Have you... heard of a place called Adstringendum?

[She needs Sam to please explain this. He knows everything else.]

( and here. we. go.

joker is watching this whole debacle with the cafeteria with such a look of almost childish glee that it's a wonder he doesn't outright laugh, because is this guy serious? you wake up in a place you don't know and you immediately start in with the food?
)

Hey, buddy, ever heard of the phrase don't drink the koolaid?

( you're gonna end up killing yourself, bro. what if that shit's poisoned? )
child_of_bhaal: (ummm)

I haven't counted exactly. There's [She glances away, doing a quick count, her fingers moving with the numbers.] seventeen ships in the fleet, aside from the one you're on. I think they have to hold at least five or six people at their minimum. But I know we can get upgraded for more room, so there could be more than that.

So...a lot of people.

[Well, that answers that question. She can't say she's not disappointed. Also, keywords.]

I'm afraid that you must be different to the Castiel I know, then. I'm sorry to bother you.
flickerflash: (smiling up)

And three

Finally!

[Small British child alert.] You took a very long time to get here. You're meant to be here first!

[Okay yeah the food stuffing thing is weird but MAYBE HE WAS STUCK IN A HOLE FOR TWO WEEKS who knows with your world man]
child_of_bhaal: (firm)

According to our dear hosts, [scathing sarcasm there.] we're being watched by an audience. We're here to be entertaining.

[That face. Crowley's first reaction is the same whenever Castiel has shown up in these places, to get the hell away and avoid any an all contact. He very almost does that, but this...is different. The face is the same, so is the voice, but the demeanour is something very different.

Then he remembers. Castiel had a loss once, him and the Winchesters together. About some other world...he'd assumed it was a trick of the castle. Apparently not.
]

If we are, the punchline is really shitty.

[Like his life. Hah hah. ]
child_of_bhaal: (inconvenient)

Tell me about it. I try not to think about it too much. Makes me irritable. And self-conscious.
