[030] keep him tied it makes him well; he's getting better, can't you tell?

...You mean to tell me it's not a change-up day? 'Cause, you know. Usually there's some kinda announcement or whatever, and it's been pretty hot and heavy lately, but...No?

Well okay then. Great. 'Cause holy fuck, I don't know about the rest of you but I could sure as hell use the vacation.


[PRIVATE to Profit]

Not sure if I apologized yet, but I'm sorry, man. That was kind of completely on me, I'm happy to chalk it up to the flood and move on. Lucky thing Castiel was there, right?

[Heh.]


[PRIVATE to Claire]

[The transmission stops and starts a couple times before anything actually comes through. SOMEBODY'S NERVOUS ABOUT THIS.]

So, uh. I know it probably doesn't help much, but. Um.

I'm sorry.

I'm not saying it makes up for anything 'cause it really doesn't, but. I really did like you and I'm sorry I ruined things.

[A pause, a deep breath, and he lets it out in a rush and nods.]

Yeah. That's it. Uh. Later, I guess. Or not. Whichever.

[And he kills the feed.]


[A/N: Richie is Affected, which in this case translates to a case of the sanes. Here be reason and rationality and less delusions! Also funny looks for those of you unaffected thinking he's supposed to be a nutcase.

General all-inclusive TW for the Claire conversation to be safe; who knows where that might end up.]
