[b]NATALIA[/b] Engulfing Cason into a hug wasn't something Nat would ever have thought she'd do but right now, in her eyes and in mind, he was the ONLY one who knew what she went through in that asylum. As far as she knew, no one else in the group went through what she did or even saw the true horrors of that place. No one except for Cason. She was aware of his hesitancy at first but the moment he held her back and weaved his fingers into the back of her hair, she just wanted to remain clinging to him. She listened to him speak, understanding his reasoning for it but she was glad he had finally told her he was the person she could sort of remember but was a blur up until now. It gave her a little bit of peace to start trying to move forward from her past. He even made her break the tiniest of smiles for the briefest of moments when he told her she didn't owe him anything. Every part of her wanted to insist she owed him her life, her freedom but those words alone made her know it would be pointless in doing. She frowned ever so slightly when he pulled her back to make her look at him, raising her hands to place them over his on the sides of her face. She gently shook her head when he offered to leave her for a while. That was the very last thing she wanted from him right now. "No... I don't care if they wont listen to your side of the facts, or even accept them. I need you here. You're something solid and affirming for me right now. You were a comfort to me then, and you're that to me now. If my brothers can't accept that then that's a them problem, not mine or yours." she replied to him. Then came a knock on the door which made her jump as she wasn't expecting one so soon, not only that she was focused so much on Cason and their conversation she had completely forgotten that someone would come knocking for her. Esme's voice coming through the door made her sigh with relief and relax again beside Cason, "bloody hell" she sighed slightly annoyed. "Guess this...moment of calm is over" she told him, lifting his hands off of her face and crawling out of the bed to open the door. "What is it? Tell my dumb headed brother I'll be out soon" she complained, leaning on the door as she held it open. [b]SAM AND MIKA[/b] Sam sighed and nodded when Dean told him not to blame himself. He listened to both him and Mika telling him that wasn't normal for Anna to do, but all he kept thinking was that this wasn't the first time she just upped and left him. It gave him bad memories of when Mika would up and leave Dean all those many years ago, then just pop back into his life again. He didn't want to go through that emotional turmoil that Dean did, he knew he wouldn't be able to handle it when there was so much already on all their plates. With Esme and Duke still beside them in very questionable clothing choices this morning, he decided he would listen to them and like the others he did not approve of the bounty hunter option, no matter how much Duke tried to convince them of otherwise. He even did a little wince when Duke suggested just killing Cason. That would NOT go down well with Natalia in the slightest, even if he wouldn't complain about seeing Cason no more but Dean was right when he said Natalia would cut Duke's head off or similar if she heard what was just suggested. "Dean's right, as much as I don't like him being near Nat, she's somehow finding comfort it seems in him. Cason is off limits" he agreed, just before the others continued all their conversations and coming to the conclusion that it was Esme who would have to go as no one would be suitable for the task. What did surprise him however was Dean barking the order of loaning clothing to Esme at Mika. He gave her a look of 'just don't argue...please?' which Mika knew all too well. Mika then sighed and huffed in annoyance, but nodded when Dean said 'please' slightly nicer but still with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. "Fine, I'll be right back" she said flatly, trying to play nice as she was aware Duke didn't know about all the tension between her and Esme. As she turned on her heels to head to the room, she leaned into Dean's ear and whispered "you're lucky you're hot when youre bossy" then walked back to the room, where she shuffled through her clothes, purposely grabbing her oldest pair of jeans that she barely wore now and a t-shirt, then headed back where she shoved the clothes into Esme's hands. "best I could find that would fit you" she told the woman, trying her hardest to play civil. --- As Esme went to Nat's room, she stood with the boys waiting to see what would come of this moment. "We'll find her Sammy, if it's the last thing I do, I will find her" she told him, to which Sam gave a small nod and hugged her briefly from the side before letting go and looking toward the door that was now open and he just about saw a tiny glimpse of Natalia from his angle, still in last night's clothes. "Cason better help, if he still cares for Anna" he commented.
