It's strange to think that exactly nine months ago, I was a completely different person. And now... It seems like it was last week. Time passes a lot faster than I'd like to realize.

[It's unclear where exactly she's going with this... But nothing else is said. Perhaps she's just speaking out loud, to herself or whomever happens to be listening. The

Who were you nine months ago?

[Video] derp derp while she waits for Castiel

[gotbackupagain]

Naive. ..Blissfully ignorant, I suppose.

[ahandsomedevil]

Is that really a better way to be?

voice - a while later.

[gotbackupagain]

Sometimes it's better not to know everything.

[Video] if it's ok? XD

[buntails]

I sort of understand. [Usagi has a sympathetic smile immediately.]

[She can pinpoint the day she finally realized it: She couldn't be that way anymore, couldn't just say 'I'm too tired' or 'I don't want to'. She had responsibilities, obligations, a duty and destiny.

It's still hard for a teenage girl to cope with, but she understands it now.]

Do you want to talk about it awhile?

voice - a while later. <3

[gotbackupagain]

There isn't a lot to talk about. There's no changing or stopping the flow of time. We just move right along with it.

[There were exceptions to her kind of course, but time travel was painful, if not difficult. It wasn't like the past could really be altered, either.]

[buntails]

We can't stay as young girls forever.

Even though it'd be kind of nice, wouldn't it?

[Sadly, her past is theoretically alterable, and they've had to fight to stop it from happening.]

[gotbackupagain]

[So was her own, technically. But if things started changing around too much... Well. Fate is kind of a bitch. Even to Angels.]

It would.. At least for a while.

[Castiel can hear his name being called from almost anywhere when he's actually being addressed, and even here in his strange dimension that hasn't changed. He hears Anna request, or rather order, his presence and he hesitates, unsure of why she'd be summoning him in such a way. He was also vaguely offended she seemed to think he was at her beck and call; what had given his siblings this idea, lately?

Still, he has no reason to ignore her, and she might really need something and that be the reason she was being so short. So he reaches out his senses, locating his sister and flying to her, appearing in an instant with a rustle of feathers.]

What is it, Anna?

[gotbackupagain]

[Old habits die hard, she guessed. The tone was simply automatic. She was annoyed. With a lot of things; mainly Castiel himself. So it had slipped out in her demand of his presence. But she was patient, waiting for him to come to her. She knew he would. Be it a knee jerk reaction, which she doubted was the case anymore, or the simple act of .. Well. If he didn't come to her, she would go to him. And things would have been a lot less pleasant.]

Tell me. Why did I think it was a good idea to go on a suicide mission to stop Sam and Dean from being born?

[She doesn't hesitate in getting to the point. But there's no running away this time Castiel. There's nowhere to hide in this city; and if he did run? She would hunt him down, no questions asked.]

[Of all the things he might have expected her to want from him at the moment, this was not one of them. Where had it come from? But then, he thought about it, and it made sense: Michael. She has to have spoken to Michael, who would have no real reason to hide anything from her.

But he'd already spoken with her about this a bit; why was she questioning him further?]

Because you thought it would stop the Apocalypse.

[It was the same answer he'd given the other times, and he felt no desire to elaborate this time any more than he had last.]

[gotbackupagain]

[She takes a breath. Yes. That had been the answer she'd gotten from every angle she'd pushed. But she was getting her answer tonight, blissful ignorance be damned.]

Why would I even think that? All that would do, is bring Michael's reign of fire down on me, and-[She raises her hands, gesturing to the whole 'look what it gets me'.] I would have no logical reason to do that. I'm not stupid, Castiel.

You know why I did it, and you won't tell me. So I'm asking you now; Why did I do it?

[feel_nevermore]

Does time pass faster or slower for angels?

voice - a while later.

[gotbackupagain]

It moves the same for us as everyone else.

[feel_nevermore]

I would have thought it moved differently for everyone.

Do you regret the past nine months?

[gotbackupagain]

Generally speaking, I suppose. But as far as I know it flows the same.

It's hard to say. Most of what happened was out of my hands entirely. Regret usually comes from choices we've made for it.

[gotbackupagain]

[In an iceberg? Goodness.]

I woke up. Metaphorically speaking. Became aware, might be a better way to put it.

[gotbackupagain]

Of what was going on in the world; things most of the population would be relatively... ignorant to.

Angels and demons, for instance.
