(seelie&unseelie) first hunt ❂ video

[mulletrock]

[Guess who has two thumbs and is getting a handle on "fairy," technology. This guy. There's some rifling, and a brief shot of his face before he manages to get the damn thing figured out. Once he has the thing zero in on what he assumes is a reasonable view of him head on based on the image he's seeing he clears his throat.]

Yeah. This is weird.

[Coming from the guy that never had a myspace and doesn't use computers for anything but paranormal research, except for the occasional porno. Something he hasn't even mastered yet. He'd still rely on skin mags and pay-per-view if he had the option.]

Okay. Probably pointless, but new recruit here and I'm as pro-rights as the next guy but when I got the memo that I'd be waging war on behalf of fairies this isn't exactly what I anticipated.

[Dean scrubs a hand over his face, pausing to collect his thoughts. Sure, it's a bad joke, but anything to break the ice and take a little tension out of the situation.]

I've exhausted all my options on getting in touch with the people back home, and any resources on a way out are all coming up goose egg.

Anyone got any bright ideas? 'Cause so far this all seems like a really bad acid trip and getting enlisted by friggin' Tinkerbell's not my idea of a good time.

If you've got some insight that goes beyond the typical gist, feel free to speak up.

[tinkerbell jokes. really? isaac looks thoroughly unimpressed, but he decides to respond anyway.]

I don't think it's even possible to get in touch with people at home, or ... in touch with anyone who's outside of this world, honestly. If your friends aren't here, they just aren't. Nothing we can really do about it besides wait.

[mulletrock]

Slow down, pipsqueak. What do you mean world?? There's always something responsible, and I'm not buying the whole warring pixies thing. That's not even remotely possible. Someone's pulling the strings and I wanna know who.

I don't think any of us really were anticipating this but here we are anyway? [Not helpful, she knows but that doesn't exactly deter Minako.]

I haven't heard of anyone being able to contact those back home yet but it's alright, there are a lot of people here so I don't think you'll be lonely.

[mulletrock]

Guess you've got a point.

[Huh. Cute kid. Dean's not expecting a bouncy blonde but he'll take it, it's better than the broody teen he squared away with before she replied.]

Why's everyone so convinced this is some other plane of existence? Plenty of people try to sell that story but as far as I know nobody's ever bought it. At least not on this wide of a scale.

[The last thing Dean remembers is driving away from the prison and since his car is here that's gotta mean something. Maybe he hit the only Bermuda spot in the continental U.S.]

As much as I appreciate the thought, somehow I doubt lonely's really part of this. We weren't brought her to socialize, sweetheart.

I've asked the gods for a divine Skype hit, but I'm coming up with 404 errors. [ he sighs. even though he's being a bit of a smartass, he can't help but let that mask break a little with how disappointed he feels at his lack of demigod powers being useful here. ] Just keep getting the same unknown faces on this network. [ for the son of hermes, the god of everything technological, luke's kind of not impressed that he can't even get onto google on his locket. ]

[ luke shrugs. look on the bright side, fellow acid tripper. ] But, hey, Tinkerbell's war kind of beats that of Pan and Hook.

[mulletrock]

Skype?

[Yeah, he doesn't even know what that is. Good luck trying to explain it. 404 pings him though, and there's a brief look of recognition. He's come up with a lot of those in the pursuit of information on shit no one that isn't hunting ever looks up.]

Gotcha. Never mind.

[That's the last thing he needs right now, honestly he's had his fill of irrelevant crap. All he wants to do is get to the bottom of this and then get back to Sam.]

At least Pan and Hook got right to the point, drawing it out's not gonna help anyone. If these are fairies I really doubt they're gonna do much in the ways of flower power.

[unclebob]

What's Tinkerbell?

[Yes, because that's the most important thing to respond to in the message. Priorities.]

Audio

[mulletrock]

Really?

[Guess not everyone stuck here is up to date on pop culture as he is. It's like dealing with kids.]

She's a fairy. From a cartoon. And trust me, she's a bitch. Just like these guys.

[untranquil]

What's an acid trip?

[mulletrock]

Where are you from?

[Seriously. Dean figured that acid had to be pretty well known. It was the drug of choice for years. People still did it enthusiastically.]

It's a drug and what the drug does to you.

[ video ]

[courtly]

This Tinkerbelle... are they someone of importance here?

[ Did he know something Loras didn't? Aside from the fact that he didn't understand like half the message. ]

[ video ]

[mulletrock]

Probably not. As far as I know, she's not even real.

[Thank god. If kids fairy tales started coming to live then Dean'd definitely have a problem.]

We'll put it this way. These aren't the kind of fairies I'm used to.

[Take that however you want, bro.]

[idiosyncrasies]

[ There's one norma, completely civilian looking Dick Grayson replying today, with a smile albeit one that is sympathetic. Yeah, despite being the Second Best Dark Detective

Everrrrr

he's not figuring this one out so easily. But there are some things he can relay, even appearing as someone without a secret identity. ]

If you've just arrived, you're not that late, but I can bring you up to speed on the stuff that's happened so far. It might give you a headache, though.

video.

[mulletrock]

I'll take what I can get. So far it's been a lot of nothing, and I'd rather be in the know than discussing fantasy with a bunch of syfy geeks. This place ain't exactly a five star resort. I have things to get back to, these mooks caught me at a bad time.

[There's never a good time to get held hostage in some medieval freak show as far as Dean's concerned but he needs to get to Sam antigure out why these clowns decided to take him in the first place.]

[ what the heck is an acid trip?

in the end, he resolves that it isn't his business, or care, to ask. ] Contacting our home world from this one has proved - fruitless, at best.

Commonality between all those who had attempted it.

[ a beat, and the tilt to his head is almost, almost bemused. ] And it depends on what insights exactly you're looking for.

video;

[mulletrock]

Yeah, I got that. No cell service and no email. No way to get in touch with reality.

[Which really puts a kink in trying to get through to Sam. The lockets didn't contact anyone that wasn't here. As far as he knew Sam was on his own and headed into whatever fresh new hell was up next for them.]

If you've got insight go ahead and share it with the class. No information is bad information.

[pontificus]

[Much of his words are foreign to her, but she understands his sentiments. It seems they are all separated from loved ones.]

We seem to be isolated, all taken from different lands with no communication between us and them, and no return in sight.

video;

[mulletrock]

Yeah, that's another thing. I keep hearing this theory that we're from different places and different points in reality. You sure about that? Maybe it's just an elaborate trick.

[altercate]

This isn't anyone's idea of a good time. Except maybe theirs.

[ fairies. derek doesn't even. ]

No one does. We're all stuck. Get used to it.

[mulletrock]

Thanks for the pep talk, champ, but you're not telling me anything I don't already know.

[So far reaching out to the public's been useless, but if he wants to make it outta this in one piece he's gonna have to play it nice. Or as nice as he's capable of.]

I'm not just gonna bend over and take this, but if that's what you're into lemme know how it works out.

video;

[chiot]

You're probably dead.

video;

[mulletrock]

How does that work?

[Normally he'd explain to this kid the difference between life and death and how he's been pretty close a few times but he looks too young to stomach it and Dean's not gonna break any ugly truths to him yet.]

Video

[friendofspirits]

I'm not sure what you mean by "coming up goose egg" or who "Tinkerbell" is, but so far, it seems like we are all here until this war is over.

[Sorry Dean.]

Video

[mulletrock]

Figure of speech, and well- a reference. I'm over explaining it.

[This chick's pretty enough and she doesn't seem bothered which says a lot about her ability to cope in these kind of situations.]

Hey, I'm a solo agent if these guys wanted a team player they roped in the wrong guy.

[skennen]

[Fairy technology, a very good thing to get a handle on. It's probably luck alone that sees Connor figure out his locket enough to reply.]

Hello.

[Manners.]

Have you spoken with this Tinkerbell yet about your enslavement to their cause?

[He just assumes Tinkerbell is, in fact, the name of one of the leaders. Hm, but on that thought-]

Do you know if you are meant to be here?

voice;

[mulletrock]

I'm nobodies bitch. Putting me in a faction like Seelie's not gonna get me to do their dirty work.

[So far the whole Tinkerbell thing has gone completely over the heads of most people so he just glosses that over. He can think Tink's one of the royals if he wants to. It doesn't have any effect on him.]

Meant to be here? I don't think anyone that got pulled in was pulled in because they were supposed to be. A lot of people had their lives interrupted for this cause.

[rues]

[ clarisse is trying her best not to laugh, honestly. getting enlisted by fairies isn't really the strangest thing that's ever happened to her, so, you know. she's pretty chill with it. a war is a war, anyway, even if she'd like to get back to her own war back home. if she's stuck here and there's shit to fight, she might as well fight it, for the good of the realm or not. ]

Sounds to me like you and Tinkerbell need to work out your issues.

video | naaawww we're in the same boat so w/e

[mulletrock]

Uh-huh. Cute. There's better bed time story heroes than some kid that refused to grow up.

[Just saying. He grew up, and fast, and some of the best stories were the ones that his dad told him coming back from hunts. They beat the pants off of anything remotely Disney.]

Whatever these chuckleheads are smoking is what the real issue is. Last time I checked the draft only applies when you're local.

[C'mon Clarisse, any other day and Dean'd quip back but he's really tapped out when it comes to that and really wants a meal that he trusts wasn't screwed with. Tired and hungry's a bad combination for him.]
