16: [Action] Separate Ways

Jan 12, 2011 23:00

An extremely heavy, loud bass-beat is thumping down the hallways and spewing out of the library.

Dean has acquired a boombox.

He's also legitimately doing research, for once in his life, plucking books here and there and stacking them in a rather haphazard fashion on the nearest table, all the while singing along to Separate Ways by one of the ( Read more... )

pent-up energy, dean winchester is cocky, c: rogue, c: finn, c: tim, you can't say that this isn't hot, c: mark meltzer, break those chains that bind you, c: philip, denial, the smooth operator, fuckin' research, everyone has more sex than me, c: naoto, someday love will find you, c: chev

[ Well, she was singing with you until you stopped, you killjoy. ]

Hey, that's a good song.

You're damn straight it's a good song!

[Dean shouts over the music, leaning to one side to turn it down just a tiny bit, grinning at her.] How you doin', sweetheart?

Better, now that space nonsense's over.

[ Picking nonchalantly at her fingernails, 'kay? ] You?

...yeah, let's not talk about aircraft, huh?

[Mostly because Dean is terrified of being in airplanes, and being in a spaceship was infinitely worse.]

[ Rogue laughs quietly, leaning forward to stare directly into the camera. ]

Good ol' terra firma?

Yes.

[He stresses that, raking a hand through his hair.] I got a thing about planes. Don't like 'em.

Ah, yeah. Different, but kinda' the same. Guess that'd be kinda' harrowin'.

Wanna' get some drinks?

[ ooc: I am SO sorry, I just realized this was an action post. I prostrate myself before you and appeal to your sense of mercy. ]

Still in the air. Still not cool.

[He huffs a sigh.]

...yeah, actually. I could go for a drink.

[ ooc; It's fine. xD I didn't catch it at first either. We'll pretend he had his comm unit out. ]

I got plenty here. Tenth floor, room 003.

Count me in. See you soon.

[He nods curtly, reaching over to turn off the communicator. It isn't long before he rambles back up to the tenth floor, knocking on her door and leaning against the jamb.]

Hope you got whiskey. [He chuckles, waiting.]

[ ooc: Sorry for the slow. ]

'course I got whiskey! [ Comes the answer from inside, just moments before she actually answers the door. She's dressed a bit more conservatively than she was their first meeting. It's winter, after all. If she didn't wear a sweatshirt along with those short shorts, she'd freeze to death.

Oh, you bet her sweet ass the short shorts are still clad, though. ]

You think I'm some kinda' neanderthal? 'Hope you got whiskey...' [ She scoffs, motioning him inside. ]

[Oh Jesus, it's the return of the short-shorts. Dean isn't quite sure how he could have possibly forgotten about those, what with those legs, but he's getting a rather jolting reminder now. He quirks an eyebrow.]

Hey, can't take any risks. Summa these people around here don't know what they're missing.

[Shuffling into the room, he offers Rogue a wicked grin.] Make any bathtub moonshine lately, sweetheart?

Unfortunately, I need my bathtub for bathin'.

[ Rogue pushes the door shut behind him and floats over to the closet. She's gotten into the habit of flying everywhere. Walking is for chumps. ]

Got a nice cistern in here though. It's better hand-made than comin' outta' these damn closets. [ She smirks. ] Not sure you could handle my moonshine, boy.

[ She retrieves a short, squat bottle of Jack and tosses it in Dean's direction. ]

Heads up.

That's a damn shame. [Dean mumbles about the bathtub, getting a nice mental image when- WHOA. WHOA. OKAY. THE FLOATING. HE DOESN'T REMEMBER THE FLOATING. SHIT.

Grappling with reality for a moment, Dean forces himself to realize that not only has he witnessed weirder stuff, but he vaguely remembers this from his comic books.

...Okay, panic attack averted.]

Thanks.

[He deftly catches the bottle and unscrews the cap, taking a sip and hissing as it burns his throat in all the right ways. Dean throws himself on the nearest couch and grins winningly at her.]

How come every time we meet you're always armed with liquor? Not tryin' to take advantage of me, are ya? [He's teasing, obviously, despite the slightly-suggestive smile.]

If I was tryin' to take advantage of you, you'd be on the ground already.

[ Truth.

Rogue digs through the closet for a few moments longer, emerging with a sealed mason jar of her own liquor. She drifts over to the couch to join Dean, settling down beside him as she struggles momentarily with the lid. ]

So why ain't you one for flyin'? Can't tell you how many times we crashed the jet, and we all come out of it fine.

[ Of course, "we" implies "myself and several other people with superhuman abilities" and that may have tipped the odds in their favor just a BIT. ]

I just don't like it.

[He answers quickly.] Last time I was on a flight, the goddamn co-pilot was possessed by a demon, and that leaves an impression on somebody.

[Dean takes a hearty swig of Jack, coughing and looking at the bottle for a moment before turning to Rogue.]

I don't think it counts when it's you, sweetheart. You an' all your academy buddies are special, remember?
