[maddest]

[Like so many others will this week, Break wakes up screaming. The PCD isn't pointed at the bed, so it doesn't capture anything but sound until he scrambles off of it, past the camera and towards the window, throwing it open to get fresh air.

This all hits a little close to home.]

Why-

[He asks, hoarsely, a few minutes later,]

-does the network insist on displaying our grief? The timing is too consistent to be accidental.

And the girl?

[thelightbringer]

Oh, the girl isn't sure what I'm going to do. I've been leaving them to their devices since I found out.

If we were at home I'd have splattered her on the walls, but here....

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

What is going to happen?

[thelightbringer]

The going plan is to get us all out of here. She's useful for it, and so is Gabriel. After we open a hole in reality, I assume my brothers are going their own way and I'll go mine.

I don't like it, but even if I did kill them, it wouldn't do any good here.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

So, nothing changes.

You're all so dramatic.

[thelightbringer]

Things changed.

Why were you screaming?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Like what? You're going to end up with her back in your lap in a matter of days.

[Ignoring the question.]

[thelightbringer]

I can't trust either one of them. The only one I can trust besides Rhode is Castiel, and even then, he lies like a politician. So everything is changing now, even if I'm not inclined to tell them how.

[He glances at the kitchen sourly.]

Aren't we having tea? Here; these are yours.

[A handful of sweets he stole from the prom.]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

...all right, yes.

[Softening at the sugar.]

[thelightbringer]

I'm staying here for a while.

And I saw you dancing with my sister.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

It's very serious. I was thinking of asking her to move in.

[thelightbringer]

I could tell. She's been up all night writing you love letters.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Afraid it's a no, though. With no angel coming to stay, I might ask Undertaker.

[thelightbringer]

This all feels familiar.

And I am staying.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Really?

[thelightbringer]

[Just a smile.

Really.]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I'll put the tea on.

[Scrambling.]

[thelightbringer]

For me or Undertaker?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

For you.

[thelightbringer]

[He does relax then.]

Good.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

What do you want for breakfast?

[thelightbringer]

[Technically he brought his own (demon blood in an old flask) but he can't resist a request:]

Surprise me.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I have eggs, for once, though I'm not sure what kind of bird they're from!

[thelightbringer]

If they are from a bird? [There are strange creatures here.]

I've never had eggs.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I hope so!

[Going to turn the stove on.]
