After being openly taunted through portal feed by Crowley, Dean had gone out to find his childhood home in Lawrence, Kansas. He'd taken the impala there after dreaming her up the day prior and he wasn't ready to part with its squeaky doors or rattling AC system yet. It was parked in his Dad's driveway and he was seated on the porch spinning his flask between his palms. He'd already been inside and everything was a little too surreal for him to deal with or he'd have stayed there out of the cold.
Dean stayed pretty still even after being addressed, like he couldn't decide how to react. In the end he settled for an arched brow and a minor raise of his hand, no words, they weren't coming to him right now.
He'd had people coming and going from there often enough, but seeing as there were no jazz bands, no dancing, and no wild and crazy gaggles of teenagers hiding from their conservative and conflicted parents, the night life had been relatively dull in comparison to Nieve. He was lingering on his way back to house 15, smoking a cigarette and enjoying the fact that it still pissed off the general populace that he smoked in public, in the streets, blew smoke in others' faces.
Somehow, though, he could feel something coming, which made his skin-- scales-- skin-- on his back stand on end. He leaned against a streetlight, trying to look relaxed and impervious to whatever was drawing closer.
Even if there wasn't anyone in Alea, it still gave her more comfort to be there than in the house she had a bed in and so Shirley had spent most of her night there, indulging in a glass or two of the good wine as she curled up with one of the books she'd found in the upstairs flat. She'd have to let Jarlaxle know that she'd found things from her own world she hadn't known about but then again, venturing into the upstairs had been almost traumatic as she'd half expected to see Cedric there, laughing and loud and scratching himself.
Basically being the loutish twin brother he always was.
But those thoughts were pushed away as she slipped out of the bar, mask and book tucked under an arm as she pulled the door shut, locking it before pressing her palm flat, thinking one word 'cosaint' hard in the direction of the building.
It was pathetic really, that Promenade could make her jump at times just from the small things she still wasn't fully adjusted to and she had her free hand to her chest when she turned around again, willing it to slow down again as she looked at the other person.
Evening, she thought back, a relieved smile on her face that it wasn't something horrible or creepy. Exploring at night?

Hecate had noted Shirley's reaction, and spoke in soothing tones.
