track 05: all i want for christmas is you (dictated)

[righttrack]

[Kurt is leaning over a counter on the kitchen where he's placed two books: A cookbook and his journal. He dictates to the journal as he lazily flips through the cookbook.]

I think I want to make something. Food. Does anyone have any requests? I'll be in the kitchen.

[He's trying not to think about Blaine, really. The kissing hasn't helped with that issue.]

(ooc| Open for planned or unplanned kisses, or just journal talk!)

You wouldn't be interested.

[onlyanapple]

Are you so certain of that?

[righttrack]

Definitely.

[onlyanapple]

Perhaps you don't know me all that well after all.

[righttrack]

I never said I did.

[onlyanapple]

...Very true. Still. If you ever feel the need to share, I'm told I listen well.

I can't promise I'll care, but listening is something I can do.

[righttrack]

It's fi--

[But actually... Someone who will listen but not care sounds good. Not that anyone here can be as invested as Rachel is, back home, but the people he's come to know would still hopefully be concerned for him. Crowley... Well, he doesn't see that happening there. He can just let it all go and get out of his head, without people pressuring him one way or the other.]

...Do you want to come down to the kitchen?

[onlyanapple]

[The demon's surprised to get that answer, really. Still, he DID offer, and as Kurt has no allusions about him actually caring;]

Sure. I'll make my way over now, might take a while, I'm coming from the town.

[righttrack]

I'll be here.

Do you live in town?

[onlyanapple]

I do, I moved here a few months ago.

It's not as bad as you'd think.

[righttrack]

Actually, having one's own place outside of the castle sounds delightful.

...Also, not living with the crowd seems like it would suit you.

[Insult or observation? WHO CAN SAY?]

[onlyanapple]

[He'll take it as that last one]

After four years, it was about time, really.

And it's very pleasant. Less castle shenanigans to deal with.

[righttrack]

Less? How much of the castle magic still effects you when you're in town, then?

[onlyanapple]

On occasion. You can't escape things like world changes.

[righttrack]

Like when we went to possibly Japan?

What about losses? Any chance of that much luck?

[onlyanapple]

Exactly.

I've known them to change. Sometimes when a resident dies or gets knocked out for a long period of time. But you can't control that kind of thing.

[righttrack]

I see. And well, at least change is a possibilit--

I'm sorry, did you say die?

[onlyanapple]

No one's filled you in on that yet?

People die here, it's always a possibility. But you generally come back after two weeks.

[righttrack]

No, no one thought to mention that little detail... Define "generally".

[onlyanapple]

How helpful of them.

Usually, it happens, it's only on rare circumstances people don't come back.

[righttrack]

If I may... Has it ever happened to you? Or is that even possible?

[Which might have been a roundabout way of admitting he does believe Crowley.]

[onlyanapple]

[He makes a mental note of that and files it away for later]

No, it's never happened to me. There's only a very specific way to kill me, and no one's managed it yet.

[righttrack]

That must be awfully nice.

[onlyanapple]

Oh yes. It gives me warm fuzzy feelings every night.

[righttrack]

Okay, where is the sarcasm coming from?
