genessia | [Accidental video] | the great malfunction of 2013

[the feed at first is shaking, clearly not even meant to be on. His hand is wrapped around the bottom half of the feed, and the scenery you can see on the screen.... everything is washed out and grey.]

No, no, I'm not back here. [the muttering to himself breaks off abruptly as he whips around at the sound of rustling. he turns a 180, and you're seeing the same patch of ground you just did before he veers to the left.... and the ground just stops and turns into concrete and is clearly more of a road. He stuffs the comm into his pocket, still clearly not even thinking about it camera facing the action luckily for you guys.]

What the hell is going on?

[There's a few flitting scenes as he doesn't really stay in them long enough, walking through them with interest, until one. He hits a dead-end alley with brightly coloured graffiti plastered on the walls. But that's not what he's looking at.]

I'm not a good fit, Dean. Not with vampires and, for sure, not with the humans. I don't belong. And after a while... that starts to wear on you. Right? Cry me a river. Like you need to listen to this.

[the feed's sound is muffled, but suddenly, he's reaching for his comm, determined to see if anybody knows what the hell is going on, he can feel the answering line on his lips even though it's not him saying it, there's a goddamned not-person there playing his part for him even as he stands here, and.... he can see what's coming, the realisation of what he's watching bursts into his head, as unwelcome as the scene.

Nonono.] Benny, No!

[The comm drops to the floor, cutting off with a clatter, the last thing on screen being an upwards shot of a face that says he's just about to watch someone die. And he's just rooted to the spot, distraught and unable to do a thing but watch.]

Really?!

[She has to keep clasping her hands together in front of her, since the urge to glomp him in a tight hug is fairly high.]

Ha ha, yay! I'm really happy for you!

[From what he's told her, he does seem like he's overdue for a happy ending...or at least a decent vacation.]

[He chuckles a little bit. Typical Orihime to look more happy than he is over his own life. But he doesn't say anything to discourage it; it's just one of those things that make her her.]

C'mon. there's only a little bit further to go, I think.

[He tugs her through some other ones, not lingering long enough to see what's really going on. These are ones he's seen before, he doesn't need them. They hit a motel room, where him and his brother are sat at a table, a dog beside them. Dean watches the verbal back and forth, realising that it's not getting any further than that, before he realises what he's gotta do. He pulls a face, before he wanders over, glancing over his shoulder to see if she's following. The spell that- yep, tastes like ass- is swallowed, him grimacing from the taste, and the archway appears where the motel doorway is.

He blinks at it in surprise.]

...The way out? Already? [Looking back. Sure enough, still looping. But no way back, either now.] Seriously? the middle of a goddamned hunt? [...but yeah. The middle of a hunt. And he doesn't want to go, even though it's not moving on. It's going to piss him off a hell of a lot to have to leave a hunt in the middle. The only times he has so far is when Sam's been in a fuck load of trouble.]

Edited (It's nearly at where he's updated to where I want, so.... I decided to push it that way a bit further XD (And then I couldn't spell >>)) 2013-12-01 16:46 (UTC)

Seems like it's getting fixed, at least.

[Orihime's head is tilted back, her hands behind her back as she examines the Archway now in front of them. She's definitely relieved to know they can leave now. What surprises her is Dean, in that he's not electing to jump right through the gate and yell "SAYONARA SUCKERS!" to this warped dimension. If anything, he seems kind of reluctant.]

[She turns her head to look at the phantom brothers, then back at her inadvertent travel companion. Leaving is good, but when she really thinks about it...is there really a rush to be anywhere? Is anyone even going to miss her if she's absent for a while? Dean is the only friend she has left in the world. That's a little depressing, but it is what it is.]

We can stay a little longer, if you like.

[Her shoulders hitch in a shrug. Whatever he wants, she'll stick beside him.]

[He pulls a hand down his face, looking a little torn.]

I just... it's the middle of a goddamned hunt. [His eyes drift over to 'him' and Sam at the table with the dog sat beside them. Now it's not looping so much as it has.... just stopped. It looks eerie, to him.] And it's not going to move on by the looks of things, but... [He frowns]

Do you reckon this is going to be like those docks that send you home? Where it stops until you go back? [Because if that's the case he can just go back later when there's more. He doesn't have to leave the hunt at all, as such.

It's more a case of him leading her into telling him what he needs to hear to reenforce his belief and thereby meaning he can find it in himself to leave here for now.]

Well...

[She can tell Dean is curious. Honestly, Orihime can't blame him for that. If she had to guess, the only reason he's holding back is because he doesn't want to keep her here. He has to know she'll stick with him from this point on until they're both safe and in a stable location.]

Probably not? This sort of thing isn't normal. It's probably just a glitch as the city is finishing straightening things out, so I'm sure it'll be fixed eventually.

[Orihime hitches her shoulders with a smile.]

But I could be wrong!
