[Cole does not like surprises. Especially when it involves being forcibly teleported elsewhere without his permission. So when he shows up on the bridge of the Wonderduck he is on HIGH ALERT and very very confused because why is there confetti and music and--oh is that food? He immediately grabs the plate and sticks his finger in it to see what it is and finds that it's chocolate in taste. He can definitely deal with chocolate.]

Soooo, anybody want to tell me where I am now?

[He says while still having a finger covered in chocolate dessert cream shoved into his mouth. Don't judge.]

[wilder]

[As usual, Kaneis can be found sitting in the pilot's seat in the cockpit. He's got his feet propped up against the control panels that don't seem to be on right now, and on the other end of a dashboard there looks to be a small purple plushie dragon and an ostrich bobble head. From the looks of it, Kaneis is reading a book with this cover]

[And since he's done the shuffle many times before and tends to be a pretty non-reactive guy? He just looks up and looks mildly curious at Cole. He doesn't even seem to react to the confetti fluttering over to his hair. Since realy, this happens a lot.]

Oh. What do you know, a new crewmate.

[devilsinthedetails]

[A non-reaction is definitely more confusion than a reaction to Cole, but maybe people showing up out of nowhere is a routine thing. He doesn't know, he just got here and he'll just go with that instead of spending too much time thinking about pointless things like the amount of times it takes for people to get used to people showing up out of nowhere.]

Yeah, hi, that's me. You didn't answer my question.

[wilder]

[He gives a slight shrug at Cole]

Where you are? This is the SS Wonderduck. The bridge of it, anyway.

[devilsinthedetails]

SS Wonderduck. [He ponders that for a moment before he laughs.] Nice name.

[Give him a moment to remember he has manners.]

Right, I'm Cole. Cole Turner. Nice to meet you.

[wilder]

Heh, yeah. It came with the name, but I've kinda grown fond of it.

[It's weird. It's memorable. You can give it great nicknames. What's not to love]

[But he gives a nod at the name.]

Kaneis Major. I'm the pilot of the ship. We have an engineer and cook too...somewhere. [Hell they're probably frolicking in flowers or something]

[devilsinthedetails]

It's very unique. Kind of like a superhero name. "Don't worry, citizens, Wonderduck is here to save the day!"

[....Cole.]

So you're the guy to call to make sure we don't crash into something and die terrible deaths. Good to know. I'm sure I'll run into everyone else eventually and you can add communications officer to the list.

[wilder]

...Huh. [He seems to consider it for a moment] Kinda cheesy, but...maybe we could use it to get jobs.

[MAYBE. IT COULD USE SOME WORK]

Yep. Don't worry, it's been months since I've nearly crashed. [Which is said very casually before he moves on] And oh really? It's been awhile since we've had a communications officer. You haven't started yelling at me yet, so you're already more personable than the last one.

[devilsinthedetails]

Hey, some people like kinda cheesy. It wouldn't be too hard to roll with. Crew of the Wonderduck, heroes of justice and vanquishers of evil.

[He does a heroic pose. Well, as much of one as he can do with one hand holding a plate and the other busy scooping up some more chocolate stuff to shove into his mouth.]

Oh good, I don't have to worry about dying again so soon. [He sounds so calm about that.] I try to wait until I know people before I yell at them. Makes it more fun for me because then I have a reason to.

[wilder]

[He makes an amused sound at that and the pose] Just as long as we can charge for that evil vanquishing.

[Not that he hasn't done it for free before, but you know, there does need to be making a living]

[And at that remark, he tilts his head]

Again?

[devilsinthedetails]

Oh no, we're definitely going to charge for our services. Heroes of justice cannot live on only the praise of the adoring masses alone.

[He just shrugs and takes a moment to eat chocolatey goodness off his hand.]

I've died twice. Didn't really stick either time. [And he laughs brightly at his words.]

[wilder]

[Okay, that's surprising. And he actually shows a bit of surprise on his face]

Twice? [Da fuq] And I thought it was a big deal if you come back once.

[devilsinthedetails]

[He grins pretty widely at that. Cole is really proud of the fact that he was able to come back once by himself and a second time with some help. No other demon can say that.]

Yeah, twice. First time, I had to drag myself out of hell and then the second time, my son had to bring me back.

Open to all, post-grounding shenanigans.

[misconceived]

[ This is a thread for when Cole is undistracted enough from the chocolate stuff to remember he's got free reign of the Fleet and there is a son that needs grounding.

Also open for anyone else on the Wonderduck once Cole and Chris have their... talk... and come back to the docked ship. This is going to be an incredibly sullen young adult stranger lurking around and trying to act like he belongs there. Hey, it's like buy a demon, get a demon for free! ]

[devilsinthedetails]

[It doesn't take too long for Cole to finally realize that hey, he's off the evil ship with its shimmer-blocking walls and pure evil, and he can now deal with the issue that is his son not telling him things. Again. And ground him like a responsible parent should.]

Christopher Perry Halliwell, you get your ass over here so we can finish that talk.

[Yep, full named used. This is Serious.]

[misconceived]

[ There's a long hesitation, just long enough that Cole might consider seeking his son out or trying the name again, before Chris finally shimmers in. He looks insulted. ]

You can't do that. You can't use the full name, you haven't even given it to me yet!

[devilsinthedetails]

[The moment Chris shimmers in, Cole grabs him by the ear and starts to drag him off away from any prying eyes. He doesn't know these people yet and he's not going to embarrass his son by yelling at him in front of a bunch of strangers.]

Oh, you don't get to play the "but I haven't been born yet" card with me right now.

[misconceived]

[ As if dragging him by the ear isn't going to be embarrassing enough? Chris flails, trying to get Cole off him while simultaneously being pulled somewhere more private. ]

Hey, cut it out! I'm not five!

[devilsinthedetails]

[Cole stops, lets go of his ear, and instead picks him up and slings him over his shoulder.]

Not yet, but I'll keep treating you like this as long as you keep behaving like you are.

[misconceived]

[ Okay, no matter what crawled up his dad's ass and is prompting this, Chris is not going to be a sack of potatoes. Not that all this manhandling is really uncommon for the two of them, but it's the principle of the matter when they're in a strange place. He shimmers out and stands in front of his father, arms crossed. ]

I thought you wanted to talk!

[devilsinthedetails]

[The downside of having a son totally willing to use his magic to escape your grasp. Cole merely sighs and walks over to pick him up again.]

I do want to talk, but not right here. Now stay there or I will do something even more embarrassing than this to bring you with me.

[misconceived]

[ Chris grunts, completely and obviously displeased with this turn of events but he also knows Cole is fully capable and willing to follow through on that threat. He grabs on to the back of Cole's shirt and just kind of radiates sulky unhappiness. ]

You're taking this a little far, you know?

[devilsinthedetails]

[Chris is just gonna have to deal and sulk while Cole carries him.]

Are you kidding me? I don't think I'm taking it far enough.

[misconceived]

[ That's exactly what Chris has to do. Ugh. How far is Cole going to take him? ]

You are definitely taking it further than you need to.

[devilsinthedetails]

[Just to right here. Where Cole drops him onto the ground.]

No, I really don't think I am. What were you thinking, hiding that from me?
