[Crowley has been, as he is wont to do on occasion, engaging in his most favourite pastime of sleeping. Today, though, he wakes up, flicking idly through the journal as he dictates. ]

Oh joy, looks like I missed some spooky bollocks. That's my heart broken right now. I do so love to engage in spooky bollocks.

I feel robbed.

How on earth did you miss that?

forever!!!

[onlyanapple]

I slept. [As if it's the most obvious thing ever.] I see you're not dead, then. Good for you.

Re: forever!!!

[wizard_redfive]

You slept. Through the whole thing. [How on earth...] I'm not, though it seems you probably wouldn't have noticed if I had died.

[onlyanapple]

Certainly did.

Did you actually die or are you being dramatic?

[wizard_redfive]

I don't believe it... [Except her exacerbated tone implies she actually could believe it... and just wishes it wasn't true.]

I didn't, just stating a fact. The people who died came back faster than usual this time.

[onlyanapple]

And yet, here we are.

How fast?

[wizard_redfive]

Uh... I wasn't keeping a close eye on them. [She was a little distracted with the various impending dooms.] But I think it was about a day's time.

[onlyanapple]

Huh. That is unusual.

[wishmadeinfire]

Again, I find myself rather envious of you, Crowley.

forever!!!

[onlyanapple]

YOu, too, can live the lazy life. All you need to do is not give a crap and fall to sleep when you feel like it.

Re: forever!!!

[wishmadeinfire]

_{[ He laughs softly. ]}

I feel as if I could quite often now. I think it has to do with being blind. My sense of time is somewhat off.

[onlyanapple]

Like...literally blind?

[wishmadeinfire]

Quite. It is been... inconvenient to say the least.

[onlyanapple]

Huh. Any sign of it letting up?

[wishmadeinfire]

I hope so, but so far I have not seen anything - literally. It is very annoying, to be frank.

_{[ He's trying not to whine, but it sucks, Crowley. ]}

[onlyanapple]

Hmmm. Suppose I could give it a try.

[wishmadeinfire]

Give what a try? Being blind? I do not recommend it.

[onlyanapple]

No. Fixing it. Can't say it'll work for sure. Castle-inflicted things aren't always something I can heal.

[wishmadeinfire]

Oh. Well... I would certainly appreciate it, Crowley, thank you. I did not think to ask if anyone could try, given, as you said, it was Castle inflicted.

[onlyanapple]

Can't make any promises. But hey, I can try. Where are you? Best come to you, rather then let you fumble around and take forever. I have stuff to do. [Nothing to do with wanting Ashura not to harm himself, noope.]

[wishmadeinfire]

_{[ He makes a soft sound of amusement, because Crowley isn't far off the mark either! ]}

In my room. The door will be open for you.

[onlyanapple]

I'm on my way. [And, indeed, before long, there's a knock on the door.]

[wishmadeinfire]

Come in.

_{[ He is sitting on the couch in his sitting room, Agni and Bacon beside him. He has a tea set before him with some snacks, and seems to have managed picking his cup up and eating without groping for the items each time. Small favors. ]}

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley lets himself in, taking a moment to peer around, before walking over to Ashura.]

My, it really did do a number on you.

[wishmadeinfire]

I cannot personally tell, but I rather hope that my good looks are still intact.

_{[ He touched his cheek, as if worrying for a moment. He was not entirely vain, but he did like his good looks when it came down to it. ]}

[onlyanapple]

Can't see anything wrong myself. Of course, I am a known liar, so I might just be telling you that for shits and giggles.

Shall we get started?

[wishmadeinfire]

Well, I shall choose to believe it true, even if you are an accomplished liar.

And yes. What do you need me to do?

[onlyanapple]

How good of you.

[Crowley puts his hands over Ashura's eyes, concentrating.] Just keep still, and try to relax.

dictated;

[putuporshutup]

You're kidding, right? You slept?

[Have a bitter, pissed off, grumbling, traumatized Meg, Crowley.]

Sure couldn't have used your help or anything.

forever!!!

[onlyanapple]

Of course, I did.

[Excuse you and your tone madame.]

Well, then, you should have woken me up.

dictated;

[gottaknockhard]

[Spike may have taken a while to get back to the journal, and of course this is the first page he turns to.]

If only it knew. It's a lot less trouble to go after someone while they're asleep.

forever!!!

[onlyanapple]

Great, nice to know you have the lasers set to asshole again.

[gottaknockhard]

There's a reason we always got along.

[onlyanapple]

Yes. I've noticed.

[gottaknockhard]

[...Yeah, whatever.]

I'm sure you can guess what it was anyway. You can't take a nap without something happening.

[onlyanapple]

What can I say? I have a good timing. But no, I don't know what happened, other than 'spooky stuff'.

[gottaknockhard]

You've got some fun reading ahead then.

[What, did he expect Spike to fill him in?]

[onlyanapple]

[So helpful.]

I'll relish every second.

[gottaknockhard]

[He was just going to leave it right there, but for whatever reason he changes his mind.]

There were some casualties.

[onlyanapple]

As in people-who-died casualties?

[gottaknockhard]

It was one of those times.

[onlyanapple]

It's been a while since the castle did one of those.

[gottaknockhard]

[He'd name them, but it's easier to talk about it this way.]

Resources must not be that bad after all.

[onlyanapple]

Suppose so.
