Characters: Dick Grayson, Ashitaka, Dean Winchester
Where: Bar/Cafe
When: Almost immediately following Mission One.
Summary: Ashitaka and Dean had their little bonding moment, now it seems it is Dick's turn.
Ashitaka was following silently after his new friend. They seemed to have returned to 'The Ring' in one piece and Dean seemed to need some silence. Ashitaka could more than understand and was compliant. Thoughts still buzzed through his head about what exactly they had just experienced. The scenery and the dirty looking town. The simple villagers and of course, little Gabby... they all seemed to far away now, had he really just been in their midst a moment ago?
As he stepped silently down the hall, he felt a presence, different from his and Dean's own. The prince turned, meeting gazes with a rather large but young looking dog. It took a moment but soon he remembered the helpless looking animal "Dick Grayson" had picked up in Tarusa.
"So you made it back as well, that's wonderful to hear." Ashitaka smiled at it, even though what he was saying could probably be construed otherwise. This being a veritable prison and all. The dog didn't seem to mind a bit, and smiled at Ashitaka. He turned and walked away, then turned around and sat, as if waiting for him to follow. Ashitaka stopped midstep. Dean had not yet said anything, and didn't seem to have noticed the dog. However the dog looked at him expectantly, him specifically. Ashitaka looked to Dean, then back at the dog... Dean... back at the dog... Dean... he stepped forwad. Dean seamed like he needed some time after his confession. Ashitaka stepped towards the young animal. "Alright, where to?"
