thirty-fifth ghost faced
[ voice recording; sent automatically to friends & family ]
Hey, it's, uh. Sam.
[As if you didn't know that. An awkward silence passes, and he sighs.]
If you're listening to this and the program I stole from Dawn really works, then I've left the City. For real, this time. I mean, I guess the possibility of me being dragged back a week from now is always there, but. I dunno, I've been feeling a kind of tug lately, and something told me I had to get this uploaded soon. So.
[Ranting. You might even be able to tell he's nervous. He's never really had someone to say goodbye to.]
To..all of you, some more than others and some less than I would've liked...thank you. For being my friends, and for taking this psuedoprison and turning it into someplace I actually wanted to be. You guys are all amazing and I know Dean will probably call me a bitch for this but, well...
[There's a small exhale of a laugh, and a smile in his voice for this last bit.]
You were all family to me.
[ private to Dean ]
I never thought we'd actually leave separately. It's like the place knew I don't like going anywhere without you. Someone's gotta watch your stupid ass, right?
[Oh yes, that is definitely the cheeky baby brother tone you hear there. But then it turns softer, and quote noticeably a bit sad.]
I'm sorry I won't be here to do it anymore, at least in the City. I don't know what's waiting for me back home, but considering where we were when we came back here? It won't be anyone's idea of a party. But none of that matters right now, not really. What matters is that you take care of yourself. No hitting the Miller shift so hard, you get wasted on my end. I'll kick your ass for it, and don't you ever doubt that I would.
[A hesitant beat]
Look out for Cas, too. I know you still trust him, and I...tried to, but. I still think he's in a bad way right now, so just. Keep an eye on him. Whether he's working with Crowley or not, he's still our brother.
Oh, and there's actually milk in the fridge for once. Don't let it go bad.

[ private to Cas ]
[A couple seconds of silence, and then]
I don't know what you're up to, or if you can still be trusted, but. Dean does. Man's more loyal than a golden retriever. Not that you'll..really understand what that means. Watch Marley and Me or something, I dunno.
[Still with the ranting!]
Just take care of him, okay? Stay with him, at least while you're still here. You've done a lot for us, and I know we owe you more than a lifetime of gratitude, but. He needs you, man. Don't throw that away.
[ /private to Cas ]
So, until next time. I guess this is goodbye. Take care of yourselves and remember: family doesn't stop at blood. This place can't be trusted, and the only thing you've got is each other. Make the most of it.
[A moment of silence passes, as if he's contemplating saying something else or maybe just hesitating, and then the feed ends with a click!]

[ooc; This is exactly what it looks like. /weep OOC drop post is over here, but this one is sent to anyone and everyone Sam ever interacted with. Even if they haven't spoken recently or barely spoke at all. Feel free to assume this was sent to your character. There won't be any responses, but feel free to use this as a reaction post if you want to. I don't even know. /sobs into hands]
