"From out of Nowhere" - SPN

LEXI

Dean getting all defensive in his response to her words about winding both he and Sam up was easy, she couldn't help but find it amusing. It felt so typical and yet also innocent of Dean which felt like she was seeing a whole new layer to him. There was no denying he was eldest sibling in this moment and it was clear that he really did love Natalia and it was clear that it wouldn't matter how old Natalia got, he would always see her as his baby sibling that if he so wished to, would probably wrap her up in a blanket and not let her out of his grip. When he leaned closer to her and quietly spoke about how to handle Anya's current attitude to everything that happened the night before, he glanced over at the girl then back at Dean. "Just roll with it for now. I know it's tempting to be a bit more pushy but something tells me she'll eventually open up to us when she's ready to. She's a tough spirit" she quietly replied to him as Anna entered the room.

Glancing at Anna's demeanour, it seemed that being in the gym did her a bit of good, just as it had for herself. Looking between Anna and Dean, she could sense that Dean felt some level of anxiety around Anna although she didn't fully know why, she could only imagine it was something to do with Sam or the night before. Yet Anna proved in her reply that things seemed to be truly okay with her and Dean could possibly be overthinking on things. He seemed the overthinking type and that was something Lexi couldn't blame him for. A lot of hunters seemed to gain the trait of overthinking every single scenario known to man, as they were all very paranoid individuals and had to make sure that they didn't end a hunt in a body bag.

As the two of them spoke, Lexi remained silent as she finally started to sip her coffee, glad to have caffeine in her system. She noted how surprised Dean seemed to be when Anna confirmed she was in fact feeling okay. As he then turned the conversation to 'you can't leave yet', Lexi couldn't stop the smirk from forming on her lips as she held her mug to them. Then Anna's comment made her let out a short chuckle in her throat as she drank her coffee. She may not know Nat all that well yet, but it was clear that Nat was indeed the pissy one out of his family. Especially as she still had to work on having Natalia warm up to her and show Natalia that she wasn't this big bad monster that was going to steal Dean from them all and make Dean pretend that Mika never existed in his life. That just wasn't her in the slightest and she would never want to take over Mika's spot in their family, she just hoped that she could add to the family by being another spot.

NATALIA AND SAM

Nat knew that if she let Cason convince her to stay in bed all day, she would do exactly that very willingly. She was always hyper aware of how extra cautious he was when in the bunker. She did always feel for him with how he had to be in the bunker, but she was also aware that when not on the road, this was technically her forever home, for as long as Dean and Sam stayed here. Which meant that as much as she liked not being in the bunker for Cason's comfort, there were times when she couldn't hide away in her room and not socialise when they were here. As much as she rarely admitted it, she did miss both her brothers and now she had spent a night in her old room, she realised just how much she had missed them and wanted to be around them for a while.

As he got up reluctantly to get dressed, she didn't even have to look at him to know he was full of reluctance in his actions but at least he could still chuckle and find amusement in their comments before she stepped out and started talking with Sam.

Sam smirked with a chuckle at Nat calling Dean an old man, feeling glad that she hadn't completely lost her ability to give jibes at Dean's express whilst she was away doing whatever hunt came her way with Cason. He gave a nod of 'good morning' to Cason when he showed his face, looking just as dishevelled as Natalia was. "Oh he won't suddenly think that but that won't stop him from forever hoping it will happen" Sam joked. "Pretty sure he'll forever see you Nat as the young fragile thing we found all those years ago" he remarked, looking at her with soft eyes. "And that kinda creeps me out because he wasn't even sure of me back then. Like a cat on edge as they come across a dog" Natalia replied, trying not to smirk but failing miserably. Sam scoffed in amusement at the analogy of Dean and he couldn't even fully disagree with it.

"well...just be prepared for the third degree" Sam replied before turning to Cason to finally answer his questions. "as for Anya, she's doing alright I think. Sore but she seems to be chipper which is a good sign" he explained. "she's tough and I gotta say I'm pretty impressed with how she's taking it, even if its all an act, she's fooling me" he added. "but uhh... coffee is on in the kitchen and I guess if you ask nicely Nat, Dean will make you whatever you want...think he's freaking out about not knowing what you eat nowadays. But you didn't hear that from me" he said, giving his sister the heads up. "Got it" Nat simply said, taking Cason's arm and leading him toward the kitchen ahead of Sam, whilst Sam walked behind them.

Supernatural - Hell On The Horizon

NATALIA

Hearing that Duke was alright and mostly in one piece was a massive relief to Natalia. She may not have known him as well as Dean, Esme or Mika did...or had, but she still adored the crap out of the man and knew over time he would probably become like a third brother or even an uncle figure to her if Mika saw him as a brother. She didn't want to lose him, just as she didn't want to lose any of their group now. Losing Mika was too much as it was, and she didn't think she would have coped hearing anymore bad news. These last three or four days were too much already. As relieved as she was that Duke was alright, she was more relieved that Cason confirmed he was alright, despite his look. "Of course he did...it's about the most insane thing he could do that would have made Mika absolutely go batshit mad at him for" she sighed in reply to hearing what Duke had gone and done. "He was lucky to have had you go after him even if I did miss you greatly and worried constantly" she told him honestly.

Then he told her to breathe and it made her realised just how much she had been rambling and probably with very little breaths in between. She let him grab for her cheeks, looked up into his eyes back and took a deep breath as she let her eyes close. She refused to let go of him but made her breathing match his to force herself calm down all over again. It was only in this moment that she truly realised how pent up she still was over everything, especially at the situation of Cason and Esme chasing after Duke. After a few deep breaths, she did calm down and get her breathing to a more natural slow rhythm, where she felt she could now reopen her eyes. "what would I do without you?" she softly smiled before taking a quick glance behind her to check on Dean then looked back at Cason. "I'm so worried about how he's gonna react when we actually burn Mika's body. I wish I could do more for him...even though he drives me absolutely up the wall" she sighed.

With that sigh, she rested her head against Cason's shoulder. "He's gonna probably hate waking up in this room later" she remarked, "but I'm genuinely glad you three made it back safe and the boys fight didn't send Duke into a successful suicide mission".

SAM

Anna's words did bring a very tiny sad smile to his lips. She was right, that would be how Mika would see this...or at least that's how he hoped she would. He missed that whole side to Mika's personality and now he was thinking about it, he realised he couldn't recall the last time he saw that side of her. In this business, it made so many lose the hobbies they all had when they were kids, if they were even lucky enough to have a normal childhood before becoming hunters. He missed Mika being the happy go lucky redheaded book nerd before this life consumed her. Glancing down at Mika, he still hoped that for whatever reason, she would just wake up and act like she wasn't ever dead but he knew that couldn't happen as it would have happened already if it was possible. He hated that it felt like only he and Dean were allowed to come back from the dead in their group. It made it all feel all the more wrong.

The sound of the truck outside made him also briefly glance upward before looking back down at what he had to do. "Okay, I'll finish up here" he replied to Anna's statement of going to check on Duke and Esme and possibly Cason. Like Anna, he could hear Cason's heartbeat which told him he had headed straight up to go to Nat, which he didn't blame him for doing. It felt like everyone in their group was desperate to cling onto those they bonded with as tightly as possible after seeing what losing that someone had done to Dean.

Letting Anna go, Sam stayed behind as he said he would, finishing up the wrapping of Mika's body but still left her face on show as he just couldn't just bring himself to cover her entirely just yet. He wanted to give others the chance to say goodbye to her face and not a piece of cloth if they wished to. Though he wouldn't be surprised if no one else could bring themselves to come down here, but he didn't even know if Bobby had come down here yet and out of them all, other than Dean, Bobby had the most right to say goodbye properly out of all of them. "I'm gonna miss you so much Meeko... I'll never stop trying to redeem myself for not getting there in time to save you." he sighed, lifting a hand and stroking her black and pink hair, smoothing it out down over her shoulders. "this family ain't gonna be the same without you, I know this much, but I promise we'll keep Nat and Anna safe and I'll make sure Dean doesn't kill Duke or vice versa for you." he spoke, feeling a couple of fresh tears fall down his cheek before they landed on Mika's cheek.

Wiping his eyes and her cheek, he took two steps back from the bed in an attempt to leave Mika's side, although it was incredibly difficult to do so.

Supernatural - Hell On The Horizon

NATALIA

Nat didn't move the entire time Sam and Anna were gone, doing who knows what. She had no idea Sam stepped outside and broke down or that Anna followed him out before coming back inside to wrap Mika's body. She just stayed beside Dean's sleeping form in Mika's room, so she could at least be there for him if he woke up from a nightmare or something. She didn't want her big stupid brother to wake up alone. Now wasn't the time to be the typical almost twenty four year old, now was the time to grow up and be mature, even though she was worried sick about where everyone else was. She checked her phone a few times in the silence to see if there was an update from Cason about Duke but there was nothing still, and there was no shouting or messages from Anna to have help with Sam. It didn't matter how many times she told herself ‘no news is good news’, the worry for everyone else only grew in the pit of her stomach. “I wish I could help you more Dean…” she sighed, watching over him, feeling the exhaustion starting to hit her.

As she sat beside Dean, she folded her arms across her chest and began to close her eyes, only to force them open time and time again right up to hearing Cason's voice by the door which made her look up. “You're back!” She quietly exclaimed, suddenly waking up a bit more, not wanting to wake Dean, but quickly got up off the edge of the bed she was on beside Dean, and walked over to him, pausing for him to text Esme, then hugged him tightly. “Is Duke safe?” She asked, pulling her head back just enough to be able to talk with him. It was then she looked him over to see just how much damage he took from Duke's self destructive rampage. “Are you okay? You look like shit” She then asked, finally laying her eyes on his, not letting go of him. She didn't mean to say he looked like shit, but her tired brain wasn't quick enough to stop her filter from just blurting it out. “Sam stepped out but I've not seen or heard him for a while, Anna went to find him. I couldn't bring myself to leave Dean. He's an idiot but I couldn't risk him waking up alone…especially in here…” she explained, unable to stop talking for a moment whilst not knowing Sam and Anna were in the basement.

SAM

As Anna walked up to him to try and help him with Mika's body, he forced himself to listen to her words otherwise he knew he would just break all over again and be in the corner being utterly useless. He never imagined her death would hit him so hard, they all knew being a hunter had its risks, but the longer this went on, the harder it seemed to get. He could hear the shakiness in Anna's voice and it was becoming more clear that she was struggling over this situation just as badly, but her determination to remain strong for him was admirable. As she spoke again, he looked at her to truly listen as she hit the nail on the head about what Mika would have probably said to him at that moment. He knew as well as Anna did that Mika would have told him to pick himself up and get what needed to be done, done but that doesn't mean his grief was utterly invalid. He also knew Anna was right and this is what Mika would want, over the years he had heard Mika say plenty of times how she always felt she was living a life she wasn't meant to have, that she was given another life she was thankful for but there was always a part of her that felt wrong for still living when others didn't. He knew of how whoever the young girl was who had died in her place had haunted Mika. “You're right…she had said to me plenty of times she wanted this if she died…” he said to Anna. “I just didn't think it'd come round so soon…” he sighed, keeping his breathing as slow and controlled as he could muster to get through this process.

Wrapping her body took longer than he thought it would because it felt so different than just preparing any other Hunter's body. It still felt so wrong to him, even though he knew it was the right thing to do. It also felt wrong as they were doing it without Dean, but he also knew Dean probably couldn't muster up the courage to do this himself, even if he wasn't all battered and bruised from Duke's onslaught. He hadn't even noticed a good hour had passed since they first decided to come down stairs to begin this process until he heard Cason's voice call down to the basement, having now returned. Yet he was so emotionally drained, he didn't even have it in him to reply by calling up to him. He heard Cason's faint footsteps move away from the doorway to the basement and he figured he was just going to find Natalia, not checking to see if it was safe for Duke and Esme to come back in. He eventually stepped back two steps when Mika's body was mostly wrapped, only her face being left unwrapped for anyone else to say goodbye. Looking down at her, he couldn't help but think she looked somewhat serene in a way that baffled his mind. “Seeing her like this makes me think she'd think of herself as some fantasy protagonist in one of her books or something…” he commented, remembering how when they were kids she was such a big reader of fantasy romance novels and classic literature. He could almost hear her voice in his head quoting some kind of literature that would match the situation at hand. He didn't know what that quote would be, but he was certain if she was still alive, she would have quoted something.

“Tomorrow will be better. It might be only a foot more than today, but it will be a foot longer that you can run.”

I am the fire - Constantine RP

As the others began to filter through to the room that Kay, Bane and John were in, Kay did eventually look at everyone, giving a nod of hello after Bane have her the reassuring tap on her hand. She really could understand why Serena felt safe with Bane. He really did have that calming effect on people. She glanced up and let her eyes follow Lucifer's movements as he walked over to John to greet him. As she did, she shuffled a Ross a bit more to make sure there was plenty of room for Serena to join herself and Bane on the couch, all whilst eavesdropping on what Lucifer had to say to John.

Chas looked at John as he walked in close behind Drake and in front of Josh. "Yeah, everything is good on our end, especially now we're back. But let's just say as a group we probably have a lot to discuss. But Lucifer and Maze do genuinely think they can help with what the girls are dealing with" he explained, noticing out the corner of his eye Maze leaning against the wall by the fireplace, twirling her blade between her fingers.

Fia also noticed, making her start to think Maze was a pretty cool person and wondered why she never met the woman in her time. It seemed that as the years went by before Fia came into being something must have happened. Shaking the thought from her mind, she refocused on the here and now. "You sure you're okay Kay?" She asked again, noticing how she was distinctively quiet, something she wouldn't get used to as her Kay was far from keeping quiet. "Yeah I'm sure. Just a little lingering muzzy head but nothing to worry about" Kay replied, hoping that Fia would drop it.

"Taken anything for it?" Fia asked, "no need to, it'll pass soon enough" Kay countered, not wanting to be fussed over, despite what the being in her vision trip still haunting her mind loudly. Part of her wanted to distance herself from Fia for her safety and part of her wanted to wrap her future kid in bubble wrap and never let her go for the sake of her safety. "So I take it, these two are Lucifer and Maze" she spoke up, trying to change the subject, "you're subject switching" Fia accused.

LEXI AND SAM

Seeing Sam get flustered so easily at her quip from behind him made Lexi smirk proudly. Stepping slightly off side so she could be seen by all three of them in the kitchen, she watched as Dean half teased Sam as well as trying to double check what he said about her was indeed true. She gave a nod to Dean, before looking across at Anya and listened to the phone and what she said. Anya's words made her lift a hand up to her mouth to stifle a chuckle, but the amusement in her eyes deceived her anyway. “Such typical male behaviour” she teased, lowering her hands once again as she saw it was now clearly Dean's turn to get highly flustered and try to dig himself out of the verbal hole he was deeply in. Hearing him say he and Sam could easily clean the bunker and cook if the girls wanted them to, made her raise an eyebrow. Dean did not strike her as a cooking type, not unless it was something incredibly unhealthy. She watched as Sam gave a firm nod, pointing to his brother as if to say ‘what he said!’ then actually speaking up, “he's right, we can do anything housework related just like you girls can” he chimed in, “is girls can?” Lexi questioned him, *you know what I mean!” He replied.

Both Lexi and Sam turned and looked at Dean as he admitted it would be takeout and that someone should go wake his sister. It was then Sam took proper note that Nat and Cason still hadn't surfaced. Lexi softened her look when Dean admitted that he didn't even know what Nat let herself eat anymore. The way he chose his words twanged at Lexi's heart as she felt like it probably upset Dean a bit that he didn't think he had as much in common with Natalia as he once did. “Well, there's one way to figure that out Dean and that's to try and chat with her without Cason around..like you two used to” Sam replied with a shrug. He didn't have anything against Cason, after all these years, but even he knew it was rare nowadays to get any time with their sister without Cason hovering nearby or being attached to her at the hip. Sometimes Sam thought that the two of them never got past the ‘honeymoon’ phase of their relationship, but he also was fine with it as long as Nat was happy. “As for the other remark? Yeah I did…actually, I kinda brought them both home if you come to think about it and I'm not gonna apologise for that!” He then said in defiance and pride. “Such a little brother comment..” Lexi chuckled under her breath. “And you boys are so easy to wind up! It's really quite amusing!” Lexi quipped, walking closer to Dean so she could finally get that coffee she so desperately wanted. “I'll uhh…I'll go wake Nat up” Sam commented, clearing his throat to try and regain some kind of composure.

Giving Anya a look that said he would be right back, he then stepped out of the kitchen and into the hallway. The moment he was out of sight, he paused and composed himself properly. “The girls are gonna be the death of us…” he whispered to himself in an amused manner. Shaking his head, he walked towards the bedrooms when he saw Nat exiting her room looking wide awake but rather disheveled.

NATALIA

Nat knew she was stalling appearing to the rest of her family and their new friends, but she honestly didn't care too much. She really liked Anya, but she was still on the fence when it came to Lexi. Maybe the woman would change her mind about her, but as it stood this morning, she much preferred the attention she and Cason had given each other. Though now they were just laying in bed, she knew it would be only a matter of time before they got interrupted and one of her big annoying brothers would try and turf her out of bed. “As much as this completely pains me to say, but we should probably get up before one of the idiots comes knocking” she commented to Cason, reluctantly pulling away from his side. As she sat up, she leaned over and stole a quick kiss as she usually enjoyed doing and then got up, grabbing some clothes from her old wardrobe, seeing that Dean and Sam hadn't touched anything. ’huh…Dean really has been hoping I'd come back’ she thought to herself, pulling a shirt off a hanger and grabbing a pair of her old ripped up jeans, that she swiftly stepped into before pulling her arms through the sleeves of her shirt. She was surprised it even still fitted her, albeit a bit baggier which made it more comfortable.

Walking back to the bed, she sat on the edge to grab some clean socks from her bag, put them on and then grab her phone from the bedside table and put it into her jeans pocket. Standing up again, she attempted to smooth her hair out with her hands, but just gave up when she came across a couple of knots that hurt to get rid of with her fingers. She could brush it later, then turned to Cason. “Guess we should show our faces. I'll go and see what the general mood of the morning..or afternoon is like” she told him, walking on ahead, opening the bedroom door and stepping out, only to find Sam walking toward her. Leaning her head back into her room, she glanced at Cason, “the moose is on patrol.” She said to him in a hushed tone, then stood up straight and walked towards Sam. “If you're coming to wake us, as you can see, we are awake.” She told Sam, waving her hands up and down herself, which made Sam smirk and nod. “I can see that. Seems you've been awake longer than you've let us believe too if your hair is anything to go by.” He teased back, making Nat roll her eyes, but clearly happy to hear her brother teasing her again.

“I'm a grown woman, I can do what I like with my boyfriend in my old room” she said with a hint of playful snark. Sam held his hands up like they were a white flag of surrender. “Just be prepared for Dean's reaction. You know what he's like. Still thinks you're this innocent little sister who doesn't do those kinds of things” he warned, unable to remove the smirk from his lips. “Ugh, he's such an old man I swear” Nat remarked chuckling.

JOHN'S PLACE

Kay sighed as John left to get more rooms ready for the others. Something told her that with the house being imbued with magic, it'd no doubt create new rooms by itself to make life easier for John. She acknowledged Bane sitting next to her by shuffling across to give him space. She listened to him and didn't think he needed to be sorry but she appreciated the sentiment nonetheless. "Appreciate it but you don't need to be sorry Bane. There's nothing you can do or any of you can do right now. I'm just trying to sort everything out in my head. Make sense of it all I guess..." She explained.

"I'm just thankful I don't have to deal with this on my own anymore. Sure, things have escalated rapidly, but if I had to deal with this whilst living on the streets on my own? I honestly feel like I would have just given up the fight a long time ago..." She honestly said to Bane, feeling like it was easier to say it to him than it would be to John. What she and John had was still new and she felt like in some ways she was still learning what their budding relationship was, but she hated worrying him with everything happening to her, let alone what thoughts she had at times.

Then she heard in an adjacent room the familiar sound of FIA's portal and footsteps coming through. "Seems like they're coming back..." She remarked.

LUX BAR/JOHN'S PLACE

Fia didn't complain about Drake wanting to stay back and walk through with her as it was pretty common for them to do so. It always brought back memories of when she first learned how to do it and she'd convince him to sneak out of the house via one so they could go to the nearby playground or roof, sending both their parents into absolute panic attacks trying to find them until John figured out how they were sneaking out.

She let the others all go through two at a time before it was their turn. "Just like old times" she smirked, taking his hand and walking through, feeling the portal close behind them both once they reached the mill house. Letting go of Drake's hand, she walked ahead of the others, "we're back!" She called out before seeing Kay and Bane on the couch. "How you feeling?" She asked Kay, leaning over the back of the couch and hugging Kay. "I'll be okay kiddo..." Kay replied, lifting a hand and patting Fia's arms to signal for her to let go before Kay stood up slowly and turned to look at the others.

Supernatural - Hell On The Horizon

SAM

As Anna held his hand a bit tighter from what he was saying and from the cold, he kept her close, as close as he possibly could without making it difficult for either of them to walk around. He had spent so much time out here in the impala the last three days, he thought he would have been sick of it by now, but after the brutal fight between his brother and Duke? The air was exactly what he needed. It wasn't like he could be of any use upstairs as Dean slept and he knew Nat wouldn't leave his side, even though she'd be the only one awake in the room. Honestly, he was glad he could give Nat the time to just be with Dean like a normal sibling for once. He also got the feeling Nat needed it as much as anyone to focus on something until the others came home. Anna's words made him nod, she was right. Mika may have had moments of extreme jealousy and being a bit of a hot head, but when push really came to shove, she was the more reasonable one out of her and Dean and always kept him on the straight and narrow. He could also hear in Anna's tone how talking about Mika in the past tense was just as difficult for her as it was for him and it made him not feel so alone in that feeling.

“I think you're right. She was always his other half who could centre his mind.” He replied, sniffling to try and not cry all over again, even though it was rapidly becoming more impossible by the minute. He then listened to what else Anna had to say and she was completely right in her assumption. Sam had absolutely no idea how Dean was going to get over this situation. He could see it now almost, Dean retreating into himself exactly how Mika did when Dean got killed and sent to Hell by Lilith. It was hard enough trying to get Mika to eat during those four months, he was certain that between himself, Nat and Bobby, they threw away more food that had been left to go rotten than bringing back empty plates to the kitchen. Hells, he was certain he took down more empty alcohol bottles than he did plates and something told him that Dean would go down that exact same path. “He's going to do all that…exactly like she did when he died. Only knowing Dean, it'll be even worse. They both completely self-destruct without each other… So yeah, we're gonna have to keep a close eye on him” he replied.

As they continued their circuit of the lot, more and more thoughts of how the group was going to change drastically from now and back to how it all went down at the warehouse and his chest started to really cramp up at all the thoughts and at Anna's words about him, pausing their walking in the process. He looked down at her as she spoke, her eyes fluttering closed for a brief moment as she stroked under his eye. Her words broke through the mental wall he had attempted to put up in his mind and that's when he just broke, letting the tears well up and fall down his cheeks, sobbing as he just let his head drop onto her shoulder. “I should have focused on her first… I could have saved her…but now…now…” he began to sob, unable to even finish his words as he gripped onto Anna, finally letting her in properly. He just sobbed, feeling a large personality of his family had just been ripped from him. Things just weren't going to be the same anymore and he wasn't sure if he even wanted to see what life was going to be like without Mika in it. Yet he also knew he wouldn't ever do anything stupid because he had to fight for Anna. For Natalia.

It took a good few minutes before Sam could slow and calm his sobs. Lifting his head from her shoulder, he wiped his face with his forearm and sighed to steady his breathing back to a normal pace after his heart had been racing from crying so much. “I uhh…I want to go back inside and start wrapping her body, but I need your help to do it” he said to her, willingly asking for help. He knew Dean could never do it if he was awake and after the fight, if the others succeed in bringing Duke back, Duke probably couldn't handle it. So it was up to him and Anna. “But I want to give Duke the chance to say goodbye as well…he deserves that much if Esme and Cason manage to get him home alive” he added before making himself gain the motivation to head back inside.

Once inside, he headed back downstairs into the basement, taking each step slow and steady until he reached the last step and then the ground. Walking over to one of the storage units, he opened the door and pulled out some white sheets and ropes which Bobby always had for exactly these kinds of situations. The very action made him take a big gulp as he tried to keep his composure before heading into the panic room. His hands shaking as he put the sheets down on the chair he sat on earlier. Clenching his fists and opening them in a repeated action to try and stop the shaking in his hands, he looked between Anna and Mika. “I…I don't know if I can do this…” he told Anna.

He knew he had to, between him and Anna there wasn't anyone else and he felt like it wasn't fair to expect Natalia to do it, but it was still now proving too much and all too real that Mika was gone. "I know it has to be us...but...it's all feeling too real now Anna...I've really lost my sister- haven't I?" He spoke, looking at her with teary eyes.

"From out of Nowhere" - SPN

LEXI

The way Dean frowned in confusion when Lexi told him about Anna being in the gym, she took that as a clue that it wasn't a normal thing for the girl to do, or at least, a common thing to do when she was last at the bunker. Yet Anna earlier thought she was Natalia which gave Lexi the impression it was a common thing. It was becoming evident that she still had a lot to learn about the old group and family and even for Dean, things seemed to have changed drastically. When he spoke up about Cason and Natalia, agreeing with her assumption that the long drive probably has finally caught up with Natalia in particular, she couldn't help but smirk and softly chuckle at Dean's remarks about Cason being incredibly protective and almost fussy over Natalia. Something that still seemed utterly bizarre to Lexi. She was aware of him watching her every move as he always did when she was in his sights, making it just one reason for her to have pecked his lips.

Him calling for a negotiation of accepting the spoiling and fuss if she accepts he'll always be a reckless idiot made her also chuckle and nod. She wouldn't want him to change if she truly was honest with herself and him. Dean was Dean and she felt like if he was more like Sam he wouldn't be himself. As much as she did still miss Owen greatly and would always love him and his ways, she didn't want Dean to be another Owen. They were so vastly different from each other and Dean felt like a breath of fresh air who always kept her on her toes and she loved it. She didn't want him to lose that ability to always surprise her or catch her off guard, whilst also being the clingy lovable guy she had seen him to be. He was exciting and she hoped with every fiber of her being that she would always be able to match that for him.

At him throwing out so casually about sharing a shower until she suggested keeping the coffee pot hot for her return, she smirked. Normally she wouldn't ever deny him a moment to share a shower, but she really did need a coffee after a good workout. She chuckled at the tree hugger comment and gave him a wink, “rain check given” she replied as he leaned in and kissed her cheek before telling her to go. “I'll be back before you know it” she told him, then walked out of the kitchen and headed to the shower rooms where she heard Sam's bedroom door opening followed by Sam and Anya talking, via Anya's phone. It brought a smile to her face as she walked down the halls glad to hear that it seemed the two of them were in good spirits after the night they had. As she continued to walk, getting close to the shower rooms, she passed what she realized very quickly, was Natalia's old room. Two clues standing out to her. Firstly it was Natalia's name on the door in rather interesting lettering, seemingly done by a very artsy person, but she couldn't say who she would see as being an artsy person. Unknowingly, it was Mika who had designed it for Nat before Mika's passing. The other clue was the giggling and other noises coming from her room, telling Lexi that Nat and Cason were very much awake and being extremely close with each other in the bed. It made her smirk, silently chuckle and shake her head, easily imagining if it was Dean walking past the room and how he would be reacting to his little sister having a good romp in the sheets with her immortal boyfriend. “I'm gonna have to tease Dean about that…” she whispered to herself as she made the left turn, into the shower room and making a beeline for freshening up.

Stepping up, she turned the shower on, I dressed and stepped inside as she grabbed her shower gel and wash mitt, wasting no time in getting clean before giving her sweaty hair a wash at the same time. The hot water and fresh fragrance of her shower gel and conditioner instantly relaxing her. She soon got done and stepped out, turned the shower off, wrapped a towel round her body and finished up in the mirror by combing through her hair, wrapping it in another towel and then headed to her room for clothing. The walk was the same until she reached her room and went inside, closing the door behind herself for privacy so she could get dried off and dressed before using her personal hairdryer to dry her hair. Once dried, she decided to pick up a claw clip and clipped half her hair up to get it out of her face, whilst also still letting the shorter face framing front layers fall to frame her face before she made sure to moisturise her face with tinted moisturizer as she always did, then headed back towards the kitchen to see and hear Sam and Anya were in there talking with Dean.

SAM

Sam didn't think that Anya needed to thank him for anything, but he took the thanks anyway with a smile and nod. When she got up, he felt he could already tell that she had no plans on changing as she was already pretty well covered in one of his spare shirts. It made her look even smaller and it was a sight he would never tire of. Just like with his old shirts and Anna, it was like this particular shirt was just meant to have Anya in it. He waited for her as she grabbed the sling, trying not to hover too much incase she needed his help putting it on, but it was quickly obvious that she didn't need his help as she got her arm in and then her phone. The action made him smile in amusement at how she decided to use the sling as a purse for her phone and see that it did seem rather convenient for her. He had to admit, he probably would have done the same thing if he was her in that situation. With them both ready, they headed to the kitchen and that was when they saw Dean by the coffee pot and after greeting his brother, he gave Dean a look of surprise at hearing that he had only been up for at most an hour. That really wasn't like Dean at all but at least he got some decent rest. He was also tempted to say something along the lines of ‘because you are a lazy bum’ but managed withhold his tongue when Dean turned his focus to Anya and asked about her arm.

As Anya pulled her phone out and replied to Dean, he decided to walk over to the coffee pot and make himself and Anya the coffee she requested in the bedroom. The conversation wasn't all that shocking to hear, of course Anya wanted to be treated normally and not like a child who would just call apart because of one broken arm. As he poured them both coffee into mugs, he noticed the look of sympathy Dean gave Anya and he knew at that moment Dean was already accepting her as part of the family. He didn't expect Dean to be that accepting so soon but it seemed Dean really was changing to some degree. He put it down to possibly Lexi's influence and the clear joy he had having Nat and Anna back in the bunker again. It was no secret to Sam how much deep down Dean had missed Natalia and Anna being around and fussing over the two of them. Which made him think that that need to be a protective big brother was now washing over toward Anya and he actually welcomed it. He picked up the mugs and walked back towards Anya with them when he saw Anya's body language as the phone replied about how tough she was and how she wanted to stay. That smirk appeared on his face once again as he put her mug on the coffee table until she gave herself a free hand again.

He listened to the conversation between the two of them, the mention of meds and coffee making him pull out the bottle from his jeans pocket and opening it for her, tipping two tablets out and placing them beside her mug. “Way ahead of you” he spoke up at Dean's comments about sorting Anya out with what she needed. He looked up at Dean as he got asked how he was, recognising the facial expressions all too well. “I'm good. Slept hard and feeling good” he told him honestly, reaching a hand out and patting his brother on the shoulder. He then looked around and saw no one else, figuring that Nat and Cason were making the most of their old bed, he just didn't think they were in the way they actually were and he couldn't say where Lexi was. He strangely had gotten so used to seeing her up and cooking in the morning that it felt odd she wasn't around. “It's weird not seeing Lexi cooking” he mused out loud, when suddenly she appeared from behind him, “wow Sammy…that's what I've been reduced to? Your chef?” Her voice broke from behind him in a teasing manner. “I uhh…no, that's not what I meant...I…” he began to stammer before getting a playful slap on the back, “I'm messing with you yah dingus!” She laughed.

JOHN'S PLACE

Kay listened to what Bane said and she couldn't help but be intrigued at his answer, but she also just wanted to remain on the couch and not move for a while. What she went through somehow took a lot out of her, more than she realised at first. As John spoke up, she looked at him. "Well, by the sounds of it you won't have long to find out the answer" she replied as she rubbed the temples of her head, as if she was about to get a headache, even though she didn't actually have one currently.

LUX BAR

Chas rolled his eyes and sighed when Lucifer said about upsetting John for kicks. Of course he would...he always did. "So...are we ready to leave?" He asked, looking around at everyone and seeing Maze had come back with their bags and everyone seemed to be together. He just wanted to get back at this point, part of him a little worried about Kay.

Fia smiled as Drake seemed to take her at her word, glad that she could reassure him finally that they would always be okay. She adored Drake and she never wanted to hurt him. Her attention moved from him to Chas when Chas asked about if they were all good to leave and go back to John's place, "yeah I'm good to go" she replied. "Same way we came here?" She questioned to which Chas nodded. "It's the quickest way" he told her honestly. "Okay, you know the drill, I have to be the last one through" she instructed, to which Chas nodded.

Fia didn't particularly want to use her magic from her dad's side in front of Lucifer or Maze, but she knew it had to be done. So as like before, she gave herself some space, picked a part of Lucifer's penthouse that had the most space and began to open the portal back to John and Kay. She didn't need to hold anyone this time as she knew the mill house like the back of her hand. Soon enough an opening appeared and they were able to see the others in John's living room round the couch on the other side. "Okay...walk through" she instructed as she held it open, letting Chas once again, go first.

LEXI

Dean's morning flustered and bumbling of his words made Lexi smile, just as it always did. She chuckled as he pointed out it was unusual for her to have gotten up earlier than himself, knowing he wasn't exactly wrong about that fact. He was usually the first one up out of the two of them, but this morning she just found herself naturally waking up earlier and in the mood to get that morning workout in. “Figured you could do with the lay in this morning. As you said yourself, you're usually up way earlier than should be normal and you looked so peaceful, I didn't want to wake you” she smiled, slightly teasing him whilst also being serious in her reasoning. She took a long drink of her water as she turned and saw him clearly listening out for anyone else before he made a remark about no one else seemed to be awake. “Anna is awake, she's in the gym on the treadmill. But I didn't notice or hear anyone else awake. Though I think after last night and yesterday's early start for the others it shouldn't be surprising. I think we can allow Natalia and Cason to get up whenever they want after that long drive from California” she pointed out.

Using a free hand, she pulled her gym towel off from her neck and used it to actually pat down the back of her neck instead of any possible sweat before doing the same on her back. “And like I said, figured you too could do with the rest. You're always up early and you deserve to sleep in some days you know” she told him, pointing her water bottle at him as she spoke. She couldn't help but mull over what Anna told her earlier about how Dean was looking the best he had done in months and she really had to wonder if it really was because of her. Has her entering his life really made that much of a difference that it's possibly put a lot of relief in people like Anna? She knew Dean had been struggling with his grief from what Sam had warned her about when she first came to the bunker, but now she had Anna's words rattling around in her mind and it brought it all up again. It even made her see how he really helped her come out of her own shell more, more so than even Sam had.

“So, I'm gonna go for a shower as, like you so eloquently put it, I'm sweaty and no one needs a sweaty me walking around the place” she smirked, stepping up to him once more and pecking his lips. “I won't be long, so keep that coffee hot for me?” She requested.

SAM

Sam smiled when he watched Anya glance down at her arm and lift it up to him to basically say she slept on her opposite side all night. He was glad she had woken up in a pretty good mood as part of him expected her to wake up in a less than happy mood after everything that transpired the night before. If she had, he wouldn't have blamed her for it at all, he knew all too well how grumpy having an arm in a cast made someone, and topping it off with the fact it was a sly demon that had caused it? He really wasn't expecting to see her still so chipper, but he was happy she hadn't lost the positive attitude. As her message played out, he started laughing at her remark about a nurse's uniform being too short on him. He stopped laughing, but kept the happy look on his face when she confirmed she had slept pretty well thanks to the meds the hospital gave her. He also wasn't surprised that she mentioned needing coffee to start the day. “I'm sure we can accommodate that need” he replied to her.

As he sat upright, he kept a watch on her as she moved up to join him in a more upright position. He wished he could do more to help her when she hissed as she moved to lean more against the headboard, but let her scoot closer to him after grabbing her phone again, instinctively he lifted and draped his arm around her shoulders so she could be closer to him. He didn't know that she heard about the discussion involving her voice last night, but he had hoped he could delay it as long as he could even though everyone else probably wouldn't let him delay it. Listening to her next message, he smirked and gave a nod, “good and I can get you coffee” he replied, kissing the side of her head. “I got your meds right here” he then added, stretching his free hand over to his bedside table and grabbing the bottle that contained the tablets, giving it a little shake in front of her. “Purposely kept them close in case you woke up in the night needing them” he told her honestly. “So…coffee” he said once more before forcing himself to pull away from Anya so he could actually get out of bed.

Every part of him wanted to just dive under the covers again and stay in bed, but he knew it was already late into the morning and if they didn't move, someone, probably Dean, would come and make them get up just so he wasn't the only one up and about. “Let's get you that caffeine before Dean drinks it all” he smirked, standing up and grabbing some basic clothes to yank on so he was at least presentable now that there were a lot more people around the bunker. The last thing he wanted was for his sister or her boyfriend to see him in his boxers. He waited for Anya to get up and join him as he grabbed her pain meds for her and then walked out of his room and towards the kitchen with her, eventually seeing Dean in there, which was of no surprise whatsoever. “You look like you haven't been awake long” he pointed out to Dean.

NATALIA

Cason's defence of him not complaining made Nat laugh. At least he had the sense to say ‘not much’ because she could easily point out many times when he would complain, whether it be the times over the years of having to drive long distances, even now or when she had the odd bit of junk food or junk snacks. She was just impressed that his constant complaining about her older eating habits did actually change her diet and it was a lot more varied now than it once was. So maybe his complaining wasn't always bad.

She just knew deep down that he would agree with her about making the most of being able to just be normal for a short while and not worry about the next job or destination. She had craved it for so long, even amidst the time she left the bunker and just wanted to go on hunt after hunt to distract her mind from the fact Mika had died and was not coming back this time. Part of her still wished she was the one who could track down the demon that killed her and destroy the weapon that did it. For what felt like the longest time, she could never get that moment out of her head, just seeing Mika's body on the ground, turned ashy grey, the stab wound sparking and hissing after she just managed to tell Dean 'it's okay…’ despite being absolutely terrified at the knowledge she wasn't coming back from that fight. The demon hadn't just killed Mika, they obliterated the phoenix that kept her alive as well. The extra hidden weapon in the group's arsenal. She was convinced for a while that not even Cason could have brought her back to reality and reason, but he somehow did and it made her love him even more.

She continued to smile when he swept her hair behind her ear and cradled her chin in the way he knew would always make her melt to him, just as she had a way of making him putty in her own hands. “I'm sure there are too, so I think we should find out what those million ways are…don't you?” She teased back with a flirtatious smile as he pulled her to him, meeting halfway and kissing him back just deeply.
