A Chat. [For presidingangel]

[helluvahunter]

Dean was still in a little bit of shock the morning after he'd essentially proposed to Ruby. He couldn't believe he'd done it. Moreover, he couldn't believe she had accepted. Not that he should have had any doubts, she loved him. Now he was out wandering about the deserted town he'd agreed to help fix up, Toby at his side

Gabriel is leaning against a post of a broken down general store, cigarette between his lips. "Hey kiddo." He grins at Dean. "How're you likin' Vulture then?"

[helluvahunter]

Glances at him, a small smile on his lips. "It's nice. Quiet. Glad your Dean doesn't mind me crashing."

[presidingangel]

"Yeah, it is. Makes a fuckin' nice change." Stretches a little, wings unfurling, black and grey tips brushing the far walls of a stone building nearby. Shakes himself a little as he folds his wings back. "So, you've got thinkin' face on. Wanna lighten the load a little?" Bends down to scratch Toby behind the ears.

[helluvahunter]

"Definitely," he agrees, chuckling as Toby's tail goes wild at the attention. He lets out a small breath. Leave it to an Archangel to figure everything out with one expression. "Just thinkin' about me and Ruby."

[presidingangel]

"Oh yeah?" Hands Dean a beer, gestures to indicate they should keep walking. "What's up?"

[helluvahunter]

Chews lip and starts walking slowly beside Gabe, looking down at the bottle. "I proposed to her, I guess you could call it that? About the whole...bonding thing."

[presidingangel]

Nods. "An' you wanna know what all goes on with the bonding ritual gig?" Idly tosses a tennis ball for Toby to chase.

[helluvahunter]

Watches Toby run for it. "Yeah, exactly."

[presidingangel]

"Okay. Hm. Well, 's an old, old ritual. Now days, for an angel of the choirs to do it, they need an Archangel's permission, which you've already got, obviously." Grins. "'s pretty intense, Archangel or other."

[helluvahunter]

"Yeah, Raz told me a little about it." Smiles as well. "Good to know we already got permission."

[presidingangel]

Laughs. "Permission's maybe the wrong word, but it'll do. Aproval? Go for it? I dunno. 'm watching m' tongue lately, which is kinda hard to do, m' nose gets in the way." Nods again. "Thought he might've. He's awful fond of you in that 'Yay, a little brother to be a brat with' sorta way."

[helluvahunter]

Shrugs. "We're just awesome like that. He's fun to go drinking with and cause a little hell."

[presidingangel]

"I noticed." Amused. Smokes for a moment, growing thoughtful. "So, you know this bond is forever, yeah?"

[helluvahunter]

"Yeah. I know it's a forever deal."

[presidingangel]

"Okay, cool. Jus' making sure. So, 'fore I tell you how it's done, I'll give you the pros an' cons. Pros, well, there's a lot. You've got the telepathy thing already, but now it'll let you talk over long distances. You'll know what she's doin' an' vice versa. You'll be able to send comfort, support, love, friendship, all o' that through it. You'll know when she needs you even if she can't say it an' vice versa. You'll feel... complete in ways you never coulda imagined. It's home an' peace an' safety an' it's love an' joy an' happiness. Cons, you two will have no secrets from each other. Some might not think of that as a con, but most do, so I'll lump it in the con basket. When you're hurt, she'll feel it, like an echo, an' again, vice versa

[helluvahunter]

He's silent for a moment. Raz filled him in on parts, but not the entire thing. He'd had a lot of time to think about the whole bonding thing. When he speaks, it's with the trademark Dean Winchester bravado. "Good thing I sure as hell don't plan on dying then, isn't it?"
