[ Alright. He can totally do this without screwing it up.

Yeah.

Totally.

He fumbles around with it for a minute, hits a few buttons, and just sort of stares at the screen. It's dead silent on the video feed while he just sort of tilts his head to the side, eyes narrowing in confusion. ]

Crap. It's on, isn't it?

[ Ah, shit.

He straightens the communicator out with one hand, uses the other to drag a hand down his face. Dean looks more exhausted than he has any right to, but he's been awake reading through his dad's journal and trying to get his hands on anything that could give him an inclination on how to get home or how he even got here. Unsuccessful, thus far.

Which brings him to this: stopping the whole anti-social thing. ]

So I guess some of you knew me when I was here before. But, uh, I don't exactly remember that. As a warning. So I guess reintroduce yourself, if you want.

[ A pause, because he forgot how bad he is at this crap. Dean's good for one-on-one, for hanging out and drinking a beer or two, not- Wait. ]

And before I make this any more stupidly awkward like a nerd at prom -- anyone up for a drink? Be a lot better at this after a couple.

All I remember is you hitting on me. Nothing important. [ Shrug. ] Could use a drink, though you're probably out of luck if you want rum. The pirate hoards it.

Yeah, I tend to do that. [ He shrugs, though. ] Can't afford to pick and choose my liquor when I'm on a spaceship.

[ going to another dimension - or another plane, in cordelia's case - and coming back home without her memories of anything, this pings so many things for cordelia that she can't not take interest. ]

Are you remembering anything about your past life on this ship? Being triggered by things?

Nah. S'all gone, not sure if it's a good thing or not.

[ Because on a whole, he's just sort of torn on if he wants to remember anything about this place or not. ]

What is "prom"?

[ Least relevant question. ]

Uh. This dance... thing. I dunno, I never went.

[ At least, not long enough to participate. ]

Not even leaving a name with that novel of a text?

[Pinged by drinks.]

You're welcome to join me.

[He lifts up his own glass of space booze he had been drinking.]

Have no idea what you're drinkin', but I'm not about to turn it down. Directions?

[Kirk regards this for a long few moments. their first interaction hadn't been.... well. he's not sure what to do with it, even at this point.

but if he's honest, he's not sure what's worse. pretending the guy doesn't exist, or trying to-- he's not sure. recreate what they had. which sounds so fucking sappy that he's positive he's not going to say it outloud.

so when he finally turns on the video, kirk sets down a half empty bottle of Jack Daniel's in front of the comm and turns the label toward the camera.]

I've got a bottle with your name on it.

[literally, though, across the label it says DEAN'S WHISKEY DO NOT DRINK THIS MEANS YOU in Dean's untidy scrawl.]

[ Huh.

Dean doesn't say anything at first, because he still feels so fucking uneasy about everyone who seemingly knew him so well prior to his departure (and re-arrival). There's a certain guilt there that he can't really explain or give reason to, since it's not quite his fault, but. Still.

He rubs a hand across his mouth, torn. ]

It's weird but I feel like I should be apologizin'.

Why wouldn't you remember being here before?

[This is distressing.]

Dunno. You're asking the wrong dude. I guess it happens sometimes, though. People disappear, come back a few jumps later, no memory.

[ Wichita's skipping the pleasantries and leaving a text message with directions toooo the space bar. it's in a rec room on some floor, there are details in the text but the mun still isn't 100% sure which floor it's on, so. yes. let's pretend there's a useful text here. tagged with 'open basically always' at the end. ]

how did you know you were here before?

Edited 2012-09-23 11:04 (UTC)

People knew me when I was here before, and it's hard to not believe them when they knew a lot of crap about me that they shouldn't.

That seriously happens?

Not that I'm doubting you, or anything. I think there's enough suspension of disbelief left to squeeze in repeat visits to the creepy abandoned spaceship.

Yup.

I wouldn't believe it or anythin', but people tell me I was here before, and know things about me that they shouldn't.

You don't remember how you got off, either, right? But letting you remember would be too easy.

For the record, I didn't know you. I just got here.

Nope. I just remember waking up in the pod-things and then that's it. No road map out.

You are interested in fostering relationships with the individuals your former self had accrued?

I.... guess? I don't know, just seems pretty normal to figure out what I was doin' last time I was here, y'know?

I rather had the same thing happen to me, so I sympathize. I don't think we knew each other before-- but I suppose it hardly matters now, does it? Remus Lupin. It's a pleasure to meet you.

Dean; likewise. Nice to know I'm not the only one doin' the whole amnesia thing, I guess.

You went to prom?

[ eyeing you, dean. ]

Yeah. Total upstanding kid, y'know. Prom king. Whole deal. [ A pause. ] Alright no, didn't even make it to the front door before I stole some dudes date and took her to the back of the impala. [ He neglects to mention it was his brother's prom date but details. ]

[ They weren't exactly close, but Mason still had a fondness for Dean. (Of course, that probably had a lot to do with how their conversations centered around women...) He lets the feed time out and contemplates whether or not he wants to say anything for a few minutes - Dean had fallen completely off the radar last time, after Mason had confessed to what he was - before he finally hits the button to respond. ]

Welcome back probably isn't the right thing to say here, but I'm Mason. Anybody fill you in on this place?

Yeah, had the whole song and dance. More just catchin' up on what I had goin' on with individual people, I guess.

There's absolutely nothing you remember about this place? Nothing that even gives you a sense of deja vu?

If you want to wet your whistle, there's a bar. [ He pings the directions. ] I can meet you if you want. You've been on the ship before but your memory's gone. That's new, at least for me. I want to shake your tree, see what comes out.

Shake my tree? Dude, that sounds like a crappy pick up line.
