010 + LIKE A CEDAR OF LEBANON [VIDEO]

[trenchcoatedly]

I'm sorry if my brother was rude to anyone. He can sometimes be a bit abrasive, especially given these circumstances.

Admiral, I'd like to be the supervising warden of the greenhouse.

Rasitlin, how are you feeling?

[LOCKED to LUA]

What sort of things does Richie like?

[ If Lua was a warden, she'd have a guilty conscience right about now, but no, not so much. ]

Thing about Richie is he's like a kid. Not a baby or anything, but he likes the same kind of things as that Ed kid. Comic books, scary movies, things like that. He grew up a lot later than me, though, so I don't know about everything kids do these days.

What you want to ask him to do? [ Cas doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would just give out gifts. ]

Re: private

[trenchcoatedly]

Thank you.

I want him to trust me.

[surrenders]

You back him up, he'll trust you.

He could use something to do, though. Seems really bored around here.

Re: private

[trenchcoatedly]

Thank you.

[ silent for a moment, like she may be too pushy ] If I was looking for something like that, I'd ask some kids what a guy can do all day that won't get him in trouble. Don't think he can stick with real work like most of us have.

Re: private

[trenchcoatedly]

[He doesn't seem offended or like she's stepped on his toes. Definitely grateful, actually.]

Thank you. I see.

Re: private

He'd need someone watching him. If that's something you do...

[ She knows her warden's basically stalking her, but doesn't know if Cas's efforts extend that far. ]

Cousin Ferinc liked having someone to pester, I think. Strange memories. But I get the sense he enjoyed meeting him.

[The way the malcontent reacted to the word 'angel'. Something about Kospodar, he knew who that was but what did any of it mean? But the details slip away like a dream.]

[trenchcoatedly]

Balthazar is a better conversationalist than I am.

Lj, cease failing

[umgekehrt]

I haven't got a problem with your conversational skills, and I enjoy being the only cynic in a room sometimes.

Other issues, yes, but I don't suppose that was properly his body, either.

[trenchcoatedly]

Even in the face of things I've seen it done, I still find it difficult to be cynical.

Other issues?

[umgekehrt]

It's difficult to see eye to eye with you on the subject of your host. Voluntary or not.

[But he's brought up short, thinking about it. The agents of the malcontent are called 'the body of the Saint,' having gone into a voluntary slavery. The 'body' thing is a figure of his speech, but would Ferinc hesitate if it were real?

Would Stoshi hesitate? And he loves Stoshi.]

Well, they're my issues anyway. Nevermind.

[trenchcoatedly]

I hope your Cousin did not bring up this issue with my brother if he's sensitive about it. Most angels - he included - view their vessels in a much less kind light than I.

If you want to talk, I will always listen.

[umgekehrt]

It's a religious title, 'Cousin'. We aren't related by blood. We were close; once.

And being religious in the particular way he is probably understands what your host feels about faith and sacrifice better than I can.

[bargemods]

Granted.

[And a key engraved with the word 'Greenhouse' will appear somewhere conspicuous in Castiel's cabin.]

[trenchcoatedly]

Thank you.

[hourglass_twin]

Abysmal, but no worse than can be expected.

[trenchcoatedly]

Good.

[doctor_j_crane]

Your brother was fairly decent, all things considered.

[trenchcoatedly]

That's a relief.

[doctor_j_crane]

He was still somewhat perturbing, but I suppose that wasn't something that he could help.

[trenchcoatedly]

He can be a bit odd.

[doctor_j_crane]

That's something of an understatement.

[trenchcoatedly]

You think so?

[doctor_j_crane]

I do. Can you imagine why I'd think so? [Fishing, fishing.]
