[011: VIDEO]

[makesfolktalky]

[There's scrabbling as the video feed starts up, before the device is dropped and clatters to the corner of the room to show Chris and Ray. They're currently back to back in what looks like a dingy shop backroom, police batons raised against attack from any incoming sheep. Ray's keeping his eye on the door, leaving the window to Chris. There are

Dean sees the video. Okay so the mention of flame throwers brought his attention to the video. As a result...

Well yes, that is an idiot with flamethrowers and guns walking up to the back of the shop.

"I told you guys we needed flamethrowers," Dean yells as he shoulders his way through the door and steps over the bludgeoned sheep.

[ACTION JACKSON]

Ray's all but ready to give Dean the same treatment as the sheep as he breaks in the rest of the door, but luckily Dean's yell comes in time for Ray to drop his offensive stance without delivering any unnecessary blows.

"I never disagreed with you," Ray points out angrily. "An' if we ever get attacked by killer livestock again, I don't care what Beckett says. I'm goin' for flamethrowers straight out."

Chris's sheep finally dies and he turns half around in order to try and look at Dean and keep an eye on the window at the same time.

"I brought it up!" he complains. "It were Beckett an' Justin sayin' we didn't need them." He nods knowledgeably. "S'the only way t'kill zombies properly."

Dean chuckles at Chris and Ray's reactions. "Beckett doesn't want us to have any real fun," he winks then tosses them both a flame thrower in turn. "You know how to work one of those?" he asks.

They aren't hard to work but he wants to make sure before turning them loose.

Ray grins, inspecting the flamethrower with an enthusiasm he reserves especially for these sorts of situations. "Course I do. Pressure regulator, ignition valve, ignition trigger, full release trigger, yeah? In that order," he asks to confirm, tapping each part of the flamethrower in turn. At 'full relase trigger' he pulls just that, but he knows there's no harm just so long as he hasn't done anything else. He's never used one before, but he knows the theoretical aspect all to well.

Chris, of course, nearly fumbles the flamethrower but does actually end up catching it. He's still very cheerful at actually holding a flamethrower but his smile falters a bit when Ray ticks off each bit of the flamethrower. Right. Ray and his military knowledge and him not knowing anything about flamethrowers besides their merits as zombie-control devices.

"Which part d'you pull first?" he says to Ray, not as quietly as he thinks he's being.

Dean reaches over and points to a switch then grins at Chris. He's not even patronizing. Most people haven't got military knowledge or they didn't grow up knowing how to use weapons like a flame thrower. That's exactly the way Dean thinks it should be.

"You want to make sure you release the trigger probably five seconds before you want to stop firing 'cause this isn't a gun that's going to stop shooting as soon as you let go of the trigger. Sort of like a water hose."

[ooc: I'm just making shit up btw]

[ACTION JACKSON]

Ray's not even entirely sure it's safe to be letting Chris near a flamethrower, but so long as he manages to avoid pointing it at him (or anyone else for that matter) he thinks it should turn out okay. Besides, they need all the fire power they can get with as many sheep as they seem to be. And anyone with half a brain is shut away safely; if anyone's out they're asking for trouble anyway.

"If you find it too awkward you can always go back to your normal gun," he reminds him, just in case. "It'd kill 'em quicker if you 'it 'em right anyway. 'Ow much lead d'you 'ave left?"

[ooc; I found this very helpful.]

[ACTION JACKSON]

"Right," says Chris, although he's stubborn enough to not want to go back to his normal gun. He shuffles the flamethrower about until he's able to put his baton in his pocket and hold it less awkwardly, and tries to act a bit like he knows what he's doing.

"I think I've got a round left," he adds, although he doesn't particularly want to put the flamethrower down to check.

"If we can make it to the Impala I've got a crapload of weaponry in her trunk," Dean tells them. "I'm figuring we can clear the way here then work on doing some real damage."

[ACTION JACKSON]

[makesfolktalky]

Ray knows Chris well enough to expect that, and really, who is he to deny a bloke the chance to use a flamethrower? "I'll take the rear," he offers, just to be on the safe side.

"D'you reckon we could jus' try runnin' 'em down or somethin' when we get to the car?"
