Bonus Round 2

Talk to me, talk to me, like lovers do...

Bonus Round 2 is now open! This time, the theme is speech only. Entries should consist entirely of speech, although this can include script format.

If you have an idea for something you’d like to see, please leave a situation, the characters involved and any other details as a PROMPT below. Then read through everyone else’s prompts, and leave a FILL for any which catch your eye. Fills can be in any media, and they need not be long, but please put a little effort in – if anyone starts spamming this post for points, we’ll be able to tell.

You should place PROMPT/FILL, your team name and a brief summary in the comment title. NSFW prompts and fills should mention this in the summary or at the top of the post. Please note that NSFW includes any level of sexual content.

You will be awarded five points per prompt for the first two prompts you leave. The first three fills posted for each prompt will receive 15 points, the next three 10 points, and the next three 5 points. Prompts with ten or more fills will no longer receive fill points.

You can post prompts or fills for any ship this round, including gen/platonic ones (which should be indicated with an & as above). However, you may not fill your own prompt. We also encourage people not to fill prompts from their teammates, although the points will not be deducted if you do.

Bonus round fills can include links provided they are publicly viewable. Works can also be cross-posted to other websites, as there is no anonymity requirement in bonus rounds. However, works posted directly to comments will be limited to 16,000 characters by the Dreamwidth comment limit. Longer works should therefore be divided between multiple comments.

Remember, Team Chuck can participate in bonus rounds. Please note that only two prompts will receive points this round, although you can leave more if you wish to.

Edit: This round is now closed. No further points will be awarded.

OOF my feels

-curls up in michifer angel feels-

"Listen up, cat. If there is any way you think you're getting away with this, believe me, I won't let you."

"...."

"There are lives at stake. People are in danger and whatever it is you're doing here, my team and I will find out."

"...."

"Mark my words."

"...."

"Whatever clever ruses you're orchestrating, they are no match for us."

"..."

"There is no use trying to fool me, cat. I can see right through your schemes."

"..."

"Hmmm. Dean, I believe he is using what you would call the 'silent treatment'"

"It's a cat, Cas. You really think it's gonna talk to you?"

"Well, yes. Of course."

"You uh...you keep tryin'."

"Yes, I intend to."

~Two Minutes Later~

"You can't keep this up forever, cat. Tell me where the black hole came from."

"....."

"Tell me where the black hole came from and minimal damage will be made to your scratching post."

"...."

"That may have been a little harsh. Let us try something different. Tell me what you're planning and I will reward you with an ample supply of shellfish-flavored cat food."

"...."

"A saucer of milk?"

"...."

"Two saucers of milk?"

"...."

"You're not making this easy, cat. However, I think I know just what will change your mind."

"......"

"I can arrange an entire year's supply of catnip to be delivered straight to your favorite–"

"Cas! Let's go."

"I've almost cracked him."

soooooo... I cried at work....

Holy akjsdblawjdkj

No, no, it's fine! I loved how it turned out c: You did an awesome job.

“... So-”

“Don’t start.”

“Adam, I was only trying to-”

“Kill your brother, bring Paradise on earth, I know, I know. Now leave me alone, you son of a bitch.”
“You’re starting to adopt your brother’s phrase.”

“It’s not just his. I don’t need his permission to use it.”

“I realize. I’m just trying-”

“Trying to what? Ruin my life more? Try to make my time in Hell more pleasant? Well guess what? I was perfectly fine being in Heaven without you idiot angels ruining everything for me!”

“Adam, you must realize this isn’t my fault. If the Winchesters hadn’t interfered, you would be on earth with your mother.”

“Interfere by trying to save the world? Dean and Sam were only trying to protect themselves and everyone else! You’re the ones trying to destroy everything because of that stupid prophesy or whatever. It was your own fault you couldn’t stop this from happening because you’re the one who wouldn’t stop.”

“.... I meant no harm.”

“Yeah, well, you sure seem like you did. I don’t even want to look at you. Just leave me alone.”

“I feel that would be unwise. Lucifer might target you.”

“For what? Doing what I was told when Sam threw us in here? Thanks a lot, by the way. I really didn’t want to be used, in the end, but you still did anyways. And then you went and got my body caught on fire!”

“That wasn’t my fault.”

“Castiel wouldn’t have had to do it if you hadn’t been so keen on killing Sam.”

“...I suppose. Look, I know you’re angry-”

“That’s an understatement.”

“but I feel we can work together in here.”

“And what? Leave Sam to fend for himself?”

“You know Dean will be looking for a way to get him out of here. I know Death - he won’t pluck both of you out of this cage. You know Dean will choose Sam in a heartbeat.”

“Sure beats working with you.”

“I’m sure you’ll change your mind when you find yourself being the only thing to entertain Lucifer. I’m afraid he’s been alone a little too long.”

“And who’s fault was that?”

“... Mine. And mine alone.”

“Exactly. Maybe if you stopped and talked to him like a good big brother, we wouldn’t be in this mess.”

“A good big brother? I practically raised him! I did everything for him - I would have gave up anything for him!”

“But you didn’t. And that’s what matters and that’s the only thing he will remember.”

“He rebelled.”

“So? I don’t see how that’s a problem. He’s allowed to think for himself. Just because he doesn’t need to hold your hand anymore doesn’t give you a right to take away his freedom.”

“You don't understand.”

“I think you’re the one not understanding. Look, Michael, maybe it’s not too late to change things. Maybe you can finally make things right between you and your brother. You won't know if you don’t try.”

“I... I’ll think about it.”

“You’re scared, aren't you? To admit your mistakes? You’re too stubborn - you don't have to follow everything God says. When was the last time you even talked to the guy?”

“I thought that if I killed Lucifer, he would return.”

“Uh, one child slaughtering the other? Good reason to come back, dad. Two children making up from an eons long fight? Even better reason.”

“Oh... I see.”

“Good.”

“... I feel us angels think ourselves too high in contrast to you humans. Adam, those were the very words I’ve been searching for.”

“Uh huh. So?”

“I... thank you.”

“You’re welcome. By the way, next time you try starting up a conversation, try to getting better timing. I was more than pissed off earlier.”

“Your sentiment is understandable.”

“Can’t you talk normally?”

“Could you teach me?”

“Sure. Might take a while, but I guess we have the time.”

PRECIOUS! :D

Thank you!

"Dean, you get soup on that book and so help me I will- Jo! You put that gun down right this second! ... Sammy, baby, no, that's not for eating. Ellen, did you find the sword?"

"I did, though honestly, it looks like you could'a used me here instead."

"No, I- we're fine. Not your fault John's shopping trip's taking longer than it should."

"Shopping trip."

"Yes. Shopping trip."

"Yeah, well, the way things are going, I won't be too surprised if we see a miniature Milligan running around some time soon. Jo- oh Mary, sweetheart, I'm sorry. That wasn't helpful."

"No. It wasn't. Dean, take Jo and your brother upstairs, please."

"Aw, but Moooom-!"

"No buts. Now."

"I'm guessing you want me to make it up to you, then. In an adult fashion."

"You guessed right. Now get your ass over there and wash up."

"...I have to say, that was not how I expected to be doing this."

"Oh, I think most of your expectations were on the ball. They'll just be later."

"Really? Because I think we could stand to change that order of events around a bit."

"I- mmph!"

"Have I convinced you yet?"

"Shut up and get on with the apologising already."

"Yes, Ma'am."

"Well, aren't you a pretty one."

"Save it for a girl who isn't watching her fucking intestines being pinned to a wall."

"Mm, you're right, that is an impediment to conversation. Better?"

"..."

"You're welcome."

-

"Why."

"What, no hello?"

"Cut the bullshit. You didn't have to stop that demon. You didn't have to keep all of them away from me for however long it's been since you last deigned to visit. Why?"

"Can a demon not engage in the odd bit of charity?"

"No."

"Well. I wanted to talk."

"About?"

"The Winchesters, mostly. But I'm sure we can think of other topics, too."

"Alright. Again, why?"

"You know them. And they left you to be slaughtered by hellhounds, even after you begged them for help, even though they didn't understand-"

"Like I said, cut the bullshit. If you wanted my help in whatever it is you're doing to hurt Heaven's new favourite, all you had to do was ask."

"Someone's astute."

"It wasn't exactly hard to guess. The whole blinding angel light thing kind of gave it away."

"I suppose it would have done, yes. Can't say I was spending all that much time in this part of Hell at the time, though, so I missed that part. But anyway. I let you down, we'll find you a meat suit, and we can get started on plotting. Sound good?"

"Oh yes."

Edited 2012-12-05 18:34 (UTC)

"Well, what do we have here?"

"My name is Castiel. I'm an angel of the Lord."

"Get outta here. There's no such thing."

"There is. Kindly put down the razor, I mean you no- ah! Harm."

"Okay, what the fuck did you just do?"

"I destroyed it. It was hardly a difficult matter. I can do the same to any instrument you care to pick up, so I wouldn't advise that you do."

"...angel, huh?"

"Yes."

"Well, where the fuck were you guys?"

"As I said, attacking me with further weapons will not help you. Please desist."

"Like fuck I will. You guys've been sitting up on your clouds playing your fucking harps for fucking years. You don't give a shit, you've never given a fucking shit."

"I-"

"Where were you?"

"I hate to-"

"Where were you when Sam died? When my Dad died, when my Mom got pinned to the ceiling by a frigging demon, huh? What, was your harp practice taking up too much time for you to fucking save them?"

"Please-"

"And what about this guy? Been carving him for weeks. Months. And the others, and you don't give a fuck. You never fucking have!"

"Dean."

"And-"

"Dean, I am sorry, but you leave me no choice. I cannot have you fighting me for this. Please forgive me, but we must leave, now."

"You-"

"I will see you again, Dean. For now, forget."

Dean grows old. Castiel does not, and looks after him through his final years.

I know it wasn't my prompt, but I really, really enjoyed this. Your God is brilliant. And that's praise you don't hear often :P

„I’ll interrogate the cat.“

***

„So, Cat. Tell me your name and age.”

“…”

“Your name.”

“Meow.”

“You don’t expect me to believe this, do you? Your name is obviously not ‘meow’.”

“Meow”

“Then again, Dean has told me that Sam called his pet ‘dog’, which is the name of both the individual and the species, so maybe your name is ‘Meow’ after all?”

“…Meow.”

“Do not play mind games with me. I’ll have you know that those will not work.”

“Sir? Are you talking to the cat…?”

“Yes, I am. I am trying to gather information on our case.”

“…Right.”

“Idiot.”

“Did you hear that? This cat just spoke. I know it just spoke. Say that again.”

“…”

“Right then. I shall leave you to your… interrogation. Let me know if you need me.”

“I will, thank you. Listen, Meow. Do you have any information on the weird occurrences that have been happening lately?”

“…”

“People have died , Meow! And there will be even more deaths. Now, I’m afraid I cannot do much to stop this, but you can. Just tell me what you know.”

“…”

“Okay, let us see if we can come to an agreement, shall we? A reliable source has let me know that you seem to have… trouble. Trouble of the rodent-kind. I can help you with that. If you tell me what you know, I will aid you in getting rid of it.

“Meow.”

“Do not roll your eyes at me. I am serious. There are lives at stake here, and I will not stop until I have found out who is responsible for that.”

“Meeeoooow.”

“Listen, Meow! I’ll-“

“Cas! Let’s go!”

“I’ve almost cracked him!”

***

“…Dumbass.”

(okay this probably isn't what you were after I'm sorry but the idea just would not leave my head)

"Hey, Cas."

"Hello, Dean."

"What are you wearing?"

"I was not aware it was customary to open a conversation with a question as to the partner's clothes."

"Just answer the question, Cas."

"Blue trousers, a white shirt, a suit jacket, a trench coat, socks and shoes, as always. Why do you ask when you already know what the answer will be?"

"I- no reason. There's always a chance you might'a changed, right?"

"I suppose."

"..."

"Dean, you are breathing heavily. Is everything alright?"

"What? Oh, yeah. Peachy. Just keep talkin', Cas."

"What should I talk about?"

"I dunno. Whatever. What you had for breakfast this morning."

"I did not have breakfast this morning."

"So talk about- nnh- something else."

"I. Very well. I am in the south of France at present, in Montpellier. It is rather unseasonably warm at present, and a man recently approached me to ask if I knew how to screw."

"What did you say?"

"I asked him what he wished me to screw."

"Hah. What did he say?"

"I do not particularly wish to repeat it."

"Shame."

"Not particularly. It was more distracting than anything else."

"So what happened then?"

"Nothing. The search for God continues to prove futile. I believe I may try searching Andorra next. I- Dean?"

"Yeah, Cas?"

"What was that sound?"

"Oh. Nothing. I just... nothing. Don't pay any attention to me."

"Why should I not? You have a habit of drawing my attention, Dean, and holding it."

"Do I now."

"Yes. Your soul is very bright. I am surprised it does not attract more."

"..."

"Your breathing seems to have returned to normal. I trust that everything is well now?"

"I- oh yeah. Thanks. I just... thanks."

"You're welcome, Dean."

"I guess I'll, uh. See you round, or something."

"I'm sure you will. I take it that you want me to hang up in the meantime?"

"Yeah, kinda."

"Very well. Goodbye, Dean."

The group try to cook Christmas dinner together- try being the operative word.

Gabriel's practical jokes go a step too far. Sam is determined to get his own back- but how do you prank an archangel?

Your favourite pairing has a child, and it's the morning of the child's first day of school. How do the members of that pairing deal?

Between the sitcom scene and Castiel's reappearance at the warehouse, he and Gabriel talk. (Doesn't have to be shippy.)

Thanks!

lol I gotta say it's true I've never heard that before. Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!

Cas and Dean's voices are great in this, I could so easily picture them having this conversation. Thank you!

Dean and Benny discuss media vampires.

Dean and Ash have similar tastes in music, and maybe other things...

“Don’t step on that fish, Castiel. Big plans for that fish.”

“…why would Father care about a fish?”

“Why does He do anything?”

“You know the answer to that better than I do.”

“No one knows the answer to that.”

“What greater purpose could He have for a fish?”

“It’s meant to take the place of a very curious angel.”

“…I don’t see how it could survive in heaven. Fish cannot breathe out of water.”

“Looks like the fish is breathing just fine to me.”

“Don’t be cruel, Gabriel, let me return it to the water. …are those legs?”

“You’re observant, aren’t you?”

“I thought perhaps its fins were malformed…”

“That’s not exactly untrue.”

“I don’t understand.”

“Of course not.”

“It would be more helpful if you explained rather than rolled your eyes at me, brother.”

“The fish adapted to live on land. It’s the first of its kind. Do you have any idea what else is going to adapt from this fish?”

“…I see. Father intended for this creature to pave the way for future advancement of its kind. That is very clever.”

“Clever? It’s genius! Father didn’t even know what would become of these little guys when He created them.”

“…how could Father not know?”

“He called it free will.”

“That sounds too chaotic to sustain life.”

“But it does, that’s the best part! Not counting a few special cases, no one knows exactly what’s going to happen.”

“Special cases?”

“Yeah. There are certain events that are predetermined.”

“How do you know all this?”

“Because I’ve seen it, little bro. Well, some of it. You don’t think the big man actually told me any of this, do you?”

“…tell me what you have seen.”

“Aren’t you bossy.”

“Please?”

“I’ve told you too much already.”

“You’ve hardly told me anything.”

“What do you want to know?”

“What has already been predetermined?”

“Couple things.”

“…I’m beginning to think you are fooling me, Gabriel.”

“Would I do that?”

“…”

“All right, all right. First one is a series of world-wide natural disasters that’ll wipe out most of existence.”

“Why would Father want to erase years of advancements?”

“You remember the Leviathans?”

“No one remembers the Leviathans, they were banished before we were created.”

“You know what I meant. Anyway, they got to be too much of a pain, right? Not much else could coexist with them, so they were shipped off to Purgatory so dad could start over.”

“I know the story just as well as you.”

“Right. Same thing.”

“…you mean to tell me this little fish is going to become a creature so fearsome it must be wiped out?”

“Exactly. Isn’t it great?”

“You have a strange notion of greatness.”

“You just have no vision.”

“What else is there?”

“Well, there’ll be another natural disaster. A flood.”

“More fearsome creatures?”

“No, actually. It’s a punishment this time. Enough creatures are saved for the world to start over, though, so there’s no need for waterworks.”

“…what’s so funny?”

“Waterworks. Flood. Get it?”

“…”

“…nevermind.”

“Why would Father allow free will if he will have to cleanse the earth so many times?”

“Good question; that’s not even the worst of it, either.”

“…it gets worse?”

“…forget I said anything.”

“Gabriel? What is it?”

“I haven’t been that far yet.”

“Then how do you know its worse?”

“…”

“Brother?”

“Don’t ask too many questions, Castiel.”

“Isn’t it a bit late for such a warning?”

“Just… be careful, all right?”

“…what do you know? What did you see that scared you so much?”

“I’m not scared. If you don’t want my advice, don’t take it, but don’t blame me if you end up graceless and alone.”

“…graceless? What do you mean?”

“Nothing. Get back to your garrison before they miss you.”

“Gabriel, wait-!”

“Drowning is a bit overdramatic for you, Cas. That’s something I would have expected from… well, me.”

“…Balthazar?”

“Who else?”

“Why are you here? …where am I?”

“Limbo, I think. No one’s ever been clear about where we go when we die.”

“…”

“Don’t worry, Cassie. I’m sure you won’t stay here for very long. You never do.”

“No one will bring me back from this. Not after what I did…”

“Don’t look at me like that. You know I could never stand to see you sad.”

“Don’t pretend that still matters to you.”

“You’ll always matter to me.”

“You betrayed me and I killed you for it. I don’t understand how either of those things gives you any inclination to care for me.”

“What upsets you more? That I betrayed you or that you killed me?”

“…how can you expect me to answer that?”

“Truthfully.”

“Truthfully? I don’t know how to put it into words, Balthazar. How might it feel to have your wings ripped from your body? Is that an honest enough answer?”

“It was never my wish to cause you pain.”

“Then why did you?”

“Look at yourself. Look at where you are, what happened to you. Take that into consideration when you think about what I did, and maybe you will answer your own question.”

“…you could not have been certain this would happen.”

“I wasn’t. I didn’t need to be.”

“…”

“Is it so hard to believe I would do everything in my power to keep you safe?”

“…no.”

“Killing me was merciful, though; I don’t think it would have been easy to carry on with you hating me.”

“I never said I hated you.”

“Don’t you?”

“Balthazar…”

“Don’t. The guilt will crush you if you let it.”

“You were doing what you’ve always done, and I killed you for it. What am I becoming? I never wanted this…”

“You didn’t know. It’s not so bad here.”

“You should be alive.”

“I died protecting what I love the most. There are worse ways to die.”

“Worse than being killed by the brother you loved?”

“Yes.”

“What could be worse?”

“Not getting to see you once more before I died.”

“…I’m sorry…”

“I know. You’ve already been forgiven.”

“I don’t deserve to be. I don’t deserve you.”

“Do you realize I’ve been protecting you almost since you were created? We’re old, Cas. All that time, everything we’ve been through, that doesn’t just go away. If I had to die, I’d rather it be by your hand.”

“Balthazar, I-… what’s happening to me?”

“They’re taking you back… just go, Cas. Don’t fight it. You don’t belong here, not yet.”

“No, I’d rather stay with you.”

“I’ll be here. I’ll wait. Just promise you won’t forget me?”

“…never.”
