Jo was taking advantage of the seemingly demon-free moments she had to take care of a few smaller, quicker hunts nearby while avoiding the concerned monster she was living with and mentally working out how to continue with her agreement with Crowley while on longer hunts like the potential trickster god in Vegas she was still ironing out the details to.
She’d mostly taken a few salt and...

Glad they have that settled, Lily smiles too. The silence stretches and Lily wracks her brain for something to talk about before it gets really awkward. They don’t have much in common that Lily knows of, though. “So how’ve you been, besides dealing with asshole demons?” Let Jo pick something more specific than that, she decides.
The question makes her smile slightly,...

She gives Jo a sharp look, contemplating what she’s telling Lily. It doesn’t sound so bad, and if someone - human or otherwise - actually attacked her there’s no guarantee that they’d be safe from her skin in the scuffle anyway. “Okay.” Lily takes a sip from her can, glancing around before refocusing on the other blonde. “I can do that.”
Jo smiles wider when Lily says she...
lilytheheartstopper:
The name seems to ring a bell, but that might be because Lily’s expecting to have heard it before. “So.. What, if I meet him he’ll just introduce himself and then you expect my touching him will hurt him enough to help you out somehow? And what if I don’t know who he is? I’m not just going to go around touching and killing every stranger I cross.” Lily sighs, pushing off...

“Okay.” /Grey says, feeling her relax. He plays with her hair just a little bit.
“It wasn’t about treating you like you couldn’t do it yourself, I just wanted your mind off things and to hold you.” /He whispers softly to himself.
Jo was fairly certain she heard him say something, but days of researching and anxiety mixed with the alcohol and a very light lunch hours and...
greyfacewhispers:
“I thought you deserved a nice bed.” /When she moves, Grey whines slightly before repositioning himself to laying on the pillows, looking at the back of Jo’s head. She’s still grumpy and he thinks it’s a little adorable. When she asks the question he shrugs on reflex even if she can’t see.
“Because it was faster this way? Plus if I’d let you walk then you’d have gone to your...
greyfacewhispers:
/Grey laughs for a second when she glares at him and splutters angrily. When she gives him the choice he stops the laugh short, considering. He shrugs, sitting down on the edge of the bed before leaning back so his head is resting on her shoulder.
“Alright I’ll stay in here with you. More comfortable than my bed anyway.” /He mumbles, closing his eyes and relaxing. If he...
greyfacewhispers:
“Yeah monster metabolism rules.” /He says dryly thinking the exact opposite. When she nods in agreement, he stays quiet for a minute, thinking.
“Well then you had better lay down until it wears off.” /And without another word, Grey scoops her up in his arms. He quickly smokes them to Jo’s bedroom, laying her down and standing back up. He’s trying to keep the cheeky smirk...
greyfacewhispers:
“Well it’s probably not the best of ideas.” /Grey stands up to put a hand on her elbow gently when she wobbles, seeing that she’s a little more tipsy than she normally would be and he smiles at her.
“You didn’t have half as much as me and you’re unsteady. Come on, let’s get off the stairs before you take a tumble.” /He’s teasing her.
“Not my worst.” She smiles...
greyfacewhispers:
“You’re right, if it’s about Anna I probably shouldn’t know.” /He doesn’t say anything else about it, lest his other half pick it up. Jo looks angry for a moment, probably at the idea Grey wanted to spare her some pain although Grey’s not sure why that would make her angry. Okay so maybe her pride is telling her she wouldn’t break and Grey’s rubbing her pride the wrong way. ...
greyfacewhispers:
“If I’d have told you not to Crowley would have made you do something worse or done something worse to you. I said you should do it because I thought this had less chance of breaking you or doing permanent damage. I would do it for you if you let me. What I’m saying now isn’t about morality either, it’s trying to convince you not to hold so much in you explode.” /He doesn’t...
greyfacewhispers:
“Which is why I’m telling you you don’t want to be there. Especially not now.” /Grey says evenly while she’s sipping from the bottle. His eyes flicker over to her, wondering just how badly he’s hitting her buttons for her to do that. If he gets through to her it doesn’t matter. As long as she hears him.
She can feel eyes on the back of her neck, not comfortable at all...
greyfacewhispers:
“I know you’re not a china doll, but even the best break.” /Grey says quietly, not looking at her because he feels like if he does he’s going to get upset again. He doesn’t want to be upset with her because it’s not really her he’s upset with. It’s what she’s having to do and how it’s making her feel.
“You’re the first one who’d know..” She mumbles...
greyfacewhispers:
/Grey looks at her held out hand and lifts the bottle up and looks at it then at Jo’s face. After a moment’s hesitation, he hands the half-full bottle over to her and slides down the wall next to her, sitting on the step he’s standing on.
“I’m really not joking though. If you try to keep everything inside sooner or later it’s going to overflow and you and I can’t be around...
greyfacewhispers:
“You’re not emotionally crippled, you just want to be.” /Grey grouses a little bit at her when she keeps insisting it was an easy simple decision. Easy to make maybe but it’s not going to be easy on her at all, she’s shown as much with how she reacted to the cheap shot about it and her asking him earlier about doing the terrible thing.
“You can’t do that pretending around me...
greyfacewhispers:
“Don’t try to make it as simple as that, it’s not. It’s not and you know it’s not.” /Grey doesn’t miss the last choice, but he doesn’t know what to say to it. He doesn’t know what to do with that and more to the point he doesn’t want to know the specifics of the choice Crowley made her take. If he knows it’s not going to make a list of difference in the long run. All he’s...
greyfacewhispers:
“How can you say it’s okay then when you’re doing whatever it is you’re doing in there? You know you’re not okay with it, you can’t turn everything off like that even if you think you can.” /Grey just stares at her as she moves down the stairs. He puts a hand on his face when it’s clear he stung her. A lot of the chill comes out of his voice when she says “best friend” and...
greyfacewhispers:
/Grey shrugs before Jo launches into her whole “we’re okay” spiel. His lips press more tightly together with each word she says. As far as he’s concerned he’s not overdoing anything and there’s no reason for he to be saying any of this. He’s a little annoyed about it. It’s not like he’s crying or blind stinking drunk. He’s not even worried now, he’s beyond that. Grey...
greyfacewhispers:
“That little cat Dean has is really an angel? I thought the archangel was just fucking with him.” /Grey frowns, looking at her hand on his knee and sighing. He doesn’t want Jo to worry about him.
“As much of a trickster as Gabe is, I don’t think he’d lie about something like this.” Jo smiles at him when she notices his frown, brushing her thumb...
greyfacewhispers:
“What do you mean indisposed? And who exactly is supposed to be able to help, unless it’s God and he’s long gone at this point.” /Grey’s attitude is pretty sour but it’s clear none of it is directed at Jo and just the general screwedness of their situation. He slides down the wall a little, the bottle tapping against it as he fidgets.
“He’s a cat. I really hope...
greyfacewhispers:
/Grey shakes his head at what she says about Crowley going to leave her alone for a few more weeks then come back. He feels sick to his stomach just thinking about him coming after Jo and he can’t help but feel like it’s his fault because he spilled the beans on Anna and Gray which led Crowley to his twin who ratted Jo out. Grey takes a drink regardless this time, not...
greyfacewhispers:
“How are we supposed to do that. I mean… is it even possible to separate him from the souls by force now?” /It’s really discouraging to think the only way to stop Crowley isn’t something they can do. Nobody is powerful enough to do it, unless the archangels are and most of them are gone. There is one still around but Grey doubts he’d have any way to stop Crowley. The hand...
greyfacewhispers:
“Damn it.” /Grey sighs at the news about the iron, slumping back against the wall at the news on the iron. He thought for sure that would work, any logic says it should. If iron doesn’t even work how are they supposed to protect themselves from Crowley?
“What other ideas do you have?”
At his slumping back, Jo figures Grey’s not really going to go charging into the...
greyfacewhispers:
“Really? What did you find out?” /Grey tilts his head, looking curiously at the shut kitchen door. It usually stays opens, he’s never seen her shut it before and he never does. He sees her glance at the bottle, shifting his grip on it slightly so it’s not as visible. Not because he thinks he can hide it from her just because he doesn’t want it to inspire a conversation...
greyfacewhispers:
/Grey’s been a little more than worried lately since he’s found out that Crowley had spoken to Jo and it’s manifested itself in drinking. Never quite enough to get drunk or sloppy but he’s definitely kept a buzz going. As a bonus this also successfully represses the man he’s possessing so that Grey doesn’t have to worry about him seizing control at inopportune moments. He’s...
lilytheheartstopper:
Lily shakes off the hurt she feels at the words ‘no one is thinking about you,’ forbidding herself from thinking too hard about that. Instead she waits for Jo to explain, and ends up feeling more and more groundless by the word. “I.. Okay. Wait. What demon is this?” She knows a few names from listening around the apartment, but she hasn’t been paying attention recently....
OOC
Testing this shit out oh my god I’m so glad I’m not going to be using this myself.
lilytheheartstopper:
Eyebrows raised and eyes wide, Lily finds it hard to believe Jo. She’s never touched a demon, but it’s not like she wants to either. And what does she mean, ‘saving grace’? Her expression closes as she fishes for an answer. “What do you mean?”
“What do- okay, you haven’t been told. Cool, that’s.. actually good, means no one is thinking about you or...
lilytheheartstopper:
Lily stares at Jo for a second before answering. “It hurt him, yeah. That’s what pissed him off. I think it disoriented him some too, but not enough he couldn’t face me. It took.. I dunno, maybe ten, twenty minutes? Before he could grab the body and get out. But he still seemed hurt. Like I said, I haven’t seen him since, so I don’t know how long it took to be normal.” Lily...
lilytheheartstopper:
Lily pauses while opening a cupboard before refocusing on putting things away just a little more. “Ahh… I met him, briefly. He got in my face and touched me, which kicked him out of his body. I think.” She closes the cupboard and turns around, facing Jo. “Anyway, it pissed him off and he left after threatening me. Haven’t seen him since though.” She knows he’s been around,...
lilytheheartstopper:
“Oh, okay.” Finally finding the ice cream, Lily pulls it out of the bag and quickly puts it in the freezer. When that’s done she tugs on her gloves a bit, pulling them a little further down her wrist. “Yeah, I’m fine, thanks.” She feels pretty useless, actually, but she doesn’t want to dump that on Jo. “Just kinda living day by day.” She finds some soda on the counter and...
lilytheheartstopper:
With Harry stuck researching more and more, and Anna doing who-knows-what, Lily’s been shopping more often. She’s just coming back from a grocery run with two bags of food for the kitchen when she sees Jo inside with a soda. She blinks. “Hi Jo.” Lily drops the bags onto the counter and proceeds to unpack them, knowing there’s ice cream somewhere that needs to go in the...
It had almost been four days since she’d stopped by, the days between a weird mix of shame and guilt sandwiched between relief that she hadn’t heard any bad news from her mother indicating it was pointless. Jo quickly prepared another dose for Anna’s juice before heading towards the bar - thankful that her constant need to have access to the library with Crowley on the prowl...

“And that’s making me want to stop that… how?” Jo latches onto the change of topic thankfully, leaving the books and flopping down into the closest arm chair, sitting so her back was resting on the further arm rest and her legs were over the other. “But yeah, I can take Cas if need be. Who knows, it might be less dangerous even if he might get...
hackeditoutandfell:
Anna snorts some at Jo’s comment about being on the fence of getting both monsters killed. “Gray is going to blow up if he finds out Cas is an angel. Thinks he’s just a kitten. Might have to have you take him if he throws a tantrum.” She’s trying to change the subject some away from Crowley.
“And that’s making me want to stop that… how?” Jo latches...
hackeditoutandfell:
“No everything is same as it was when you were here. Maybe take Harry and Lily to Bobby’s if it becomes dangerous here.” Anna sighs, she doesn’t want to think about this, she just wants to enjoy the time right now before Crowley comes back and ruins it for good. “Gray is going to get him and the Runt killed trying to fight Crowley.”
“I don’t really know how...
hackeditoutandfell:
Nodding to Jo, Anna sits down not bothering to pull any books out, nothing in them could tell her anything. “Never touched anything down there. You can still crash down there if you need too.” It’s safe from Gray but that’s about it. She looks at map, when Castiel is gone she’s leaving, getting as far away as she can from everyone.
Jo nods at the comment about crashing, not...
hackeditoutandfell:
“He doesn’t look like a demon anymore, don’t know what I’m seeing when I look at him.” Glancing back at Jo she shrugs. “Mostly concerned about everyone else. Why I tried to blanket protect people.” There’s still something comfortable about Jo that she doesn’t have with other when it comes to some things. “Not going to be saved this time.”
“Well, hopefully it still...
