003 | video; Thanksgiving

Hey, I'm guessing a lot of you come from a place that has some kind of holiday like Thanksgiving, or at least something like it.

Where I'm from, we just... gathered together on this day, made a veritable feast from what little we had and spent the rest of the night eating, drinking and making merry.

I like to think it's a good time to reflect on what

I've always enjoyed feasts, even if I had to work. There was always plenty of food though...and probably too much wine.

I'm thankful for the new friends that I've made. But also for the old ones that I've been given the chance to see again.

Well, it can be small, like... fit in the palm of your hand, or much larger.

It... fires these projectiles, kinda like a crossbow, only it uses the energy released by a small explosion propelling the bullet through a small barrel.

[He's... not sure if any of this is making sense.]

Maybe I'll have to give you some firearms 101, just so you know what to avoid.

Projectiles? Like a catapult?

[But then Merlin tries to picture a catapult that fits in the palm of one's hand and...yeah, he's lost again. He ends up just sort of...smiling and nodding. Which means your idea is probably a good one, Cas.]

All right.

Not quite... hey, anytime you want to, I'll show you the basics okay?

[And there's your open invitation. Seems a shame that no one's offered to educate this kid on at least what to do when someone points a weird, seemingly harmless device at his head.

Granted, he has a hard time imagining someone trying to kill Merlin, but then there's always Dean.]

I'd really like that.

[Cas is different. Nice and interesting and Merlin doesn't think he'd mind hanging out with him.]

How about...tomorrow then?

You know, if I'm lucky? Tomorrow might be bad timing.

[He gives a vague wave. In lieu of his 'family' around to party with, he'll be making merry with whatever is on hand. Which probably will make for a mean hangover tomorrow.]

Feasting and all that. How about next week?

[Bad timing normally leads to unlucky things for him. So he's trying to figure that out - until Cas mentions the word 'feasting', and then he understands.]

Next week sounds perfect. I can make time whenever you're available.

[And if he just happens to sneak away from polishing boots....well, they're boots! They're meant to be dirty.]
