Who: Sam Winchester
Broadcast: fleetwide (WOO SPONSOR)
Action: Red Fish
When: Now

[Sam has had a pretty uneventful month... despite it being half spent as a toddler. But, look, none of his friends have died lately and his brother isn't trying to stab himself in the neck (recently? shut up we're being positive about this!), and, like. Space has been alright. No complaints. So that's probably why something happens right when he doesn't expect it. Or want to expect it. Sam appears on the feed, standing in the Red Fish's cargo bay, looking completely unhappy with the stack of books that are delivered to him.

They look like this, if you cock your head to the side and squint:



And Sam is totally not enthused by receiving crates of them. He reads the sponsor drop list in a hushed voice to himself.]

"From one of our sponsors — traveling across the galaxy, we bring you one of the top hits of Earth's many dimensions — Supernatural! Join the journey of two okay-looking brothers as they travel the country and somehow pass for law officials... The whole series is available... Free amulet... and anti-demon possession tattoo... with every purchase..." 

[............ EHEM. MORE DIRECTLY —

Enjoy him glowering.]

... There's no laws against air-locking a bunch of crap, right? Or can I burn it somewhere?

[Feel free to accidentally get a copy or find one misplaced by the sponsor drop — the book is essentially the first episode of the show.

And it's depressing in the last chapter, but whatever.

Meta thug life, Sam lives it.]

This picture still doesn't look anything like us, for the record. This is clearly Fabio's evil twin, come on.

[He's learned to be so over this whole thing, mmkay. He wanders while still scrutinizing the book.]

And I don't fight ghosts shirtless. Who the hell would fight ghosts shirtless...?

[THIS IS ANARCHY, WINCHESTERS WEAR AT LEAST 30 LAYERS OF PLAID.]

God, if they have Supernatural book conventions somewhere out here in space, I'm going to airlock myself.

[noprophecies]

My. I'd like one, please.

[collegedropout]

... What, is the Fabio thing really that much of a seller?

[namisan]

[Laughing so hard.]

[collegedropout]

[BWUH]

Hey, that's not fair; I didn't laugh at your misfortunes.

I could've.

[interstices]

You mean you don't have abs like that?

[collegedropout]

Not since I was —

I mean, no! Of course not. I mean, I keep in shape, but that's just ridiculous—

[oh god shut up shut up]

Come on.

It looks like your brother is carrying a pillow. Just what sort of ghosts does it claim you were fighting?

[collegedropout]

[A RARITY: a genuine laugh of surprise.]

Oh, wow, it does. It's — actually a bag of salt. But I like your vision more.

What do you wear when fighting ghosts, then?

[She's so sneaking onto that ship and stealing a copy or three.]

[collegedropout]

Clothes? A jacket?

It gets cold at night in a forest.

Action!

[child_of_bhaal]

[Lots of interesting stuff happens in the cargo bay lately. Syeira comes up, around the time when Sam is most disgusted with his gift, and immediately pokes her curious little nose into a crate for a book.]

So this is about you?

Action!

[collegedropout]

[He gives a disapproving frown, putting his hands out like a goalie.]

No! I mean, yes, but it's not — it's complicated. I didn't really agree to any biographies, here. It just kind of happened.

[My life is weird.]

[outstandingbalance]

Well. That looks like a little light beach reading.

[Is that teasing? That sounds like teasing. Gentle teasing. Sympathetic teasing, even.]

I don't know if I'd want to be seen with one on the bus, though.

[collegedropout]

You and me both.

[He'd rather be running it over with a bus. :|]

You enjoy reading ghost stories on the beach?

audio

[theboogieman]

Burn them.

[the spooky skull guy is totally in agreement.]

[collegedropout]

[He sighs, utterly relieved.]

Thank you.

[FINALLY SOMEONE HELPFUL AND KIND.

Nami pending, the cruel tease.]

[This is the BEST DAY. ]

Holy shit, you look like you fell out of an eighties music video.

[collegedropout]

I look like nothing. This is clearly not me.

This is supposed to be me in 2005. Which is just great. Apparently I travel back in time when this look was really in-fashion.

[ -- and peggy will simply conspicuously not mention the books. ] It appears as though you've reverted back to form, Sam.

[ 'cause last time she saw you, you were a little kid pestering your brother. ]

[AH..........................

Right, some people would take note of that. Um.

Ehem.]

Appears so. I mean, considering the height I'm currently at.

[Laura did that thing where she just kind of turns up unexpectedly and no one is entirely sure when or how she got there. But she's on the far side of Sam's crates of books, just looking over the pile curiously.]

[dfdfdhf-

LAURA NO. He looks up, surprised, clearly a bit flummoxed on what to do with all of these.

Also oh god don't look at his shame.]

H-hey! Nothing to see here.

voice.

[airily]

What's wrong with fighting stuff shirtless?

voice.

[collegedropout]

... I'm gonna guess you're the guy who fights shirtless.
