[ dean doesn't look happy when the feed turns on. unlike before, that hint of smugness isn't present either, as it's all down to business seriousness today. he looks tired, a little ruffled you could say-- like someone who hasn't really seen any rest.

and it holds true enough, too. there's no time for resting when you're searching, worrying. ]

There isn't a day on this ship when somebody ain't missing, is there? [ despite the conversational words, his voice lacks anything inviting. he has his favorite gun in his hands, is reloading it with a new magazine, and tossing it into a small bag filled with a few things.

looks like he's going somewhere, and it won't be just a quick trip either. ]

If anyone sees Jo Harvelle, keep her safe and lem'me know. Starting to look like she's been missin' for a few days now… [ he cocks the gun experimentally before flipping the safety back on and tucking it away. ] …which means it's time for a little search and rescue.

SEC, I guess this means I'm taken' a few days off from patrollin' and whatever.

[ a hint in his tone suggests that if that's a problem, keep it to yourself. ]

I'll be back before the jump with her.

[ or he'll try to be. if he isn't… well, that'll be the end of yet another winchester. ]

What? Seriously think I'd send a chick after my friend? [ especially as important as jo? puh-lease. ]

No, I know how to deal with the mess out there, whereas you... [ okay so she might actually be better out there, but whatever!! ]

Just no. Not gonna ask something like that, no way.

video; pretending this isn't like a month late, don't judge me

[tirade]

[ rude, yo. ]

A chick. What, like girls should be crying and damsel-ing in a corner instead?

[ check yoself. but she might be preening a little at his inability to say anything about her own skill and talent. score 1 for buffy. she shrugs, regardless. ]

Your loss. Don't say I've never done anything for you.

[ or... tried to, but technicalities. ]

video; what month u w u

[faithlessly]

[ that's rudest to you, thanks. ]

Didn't say that either. She's my... problem though, ain't about risk any more people than I gotta.

video; oh u//u you're too good to me

[tirade]

[ rude rudest mcgoober. ]

You're probably gonna have more problems when she hears that you called her a problem, if she's smart. [ buffy's going to guess she has to be relatively tough to put up with dean, so. ] But suit yourself. If something gnaws your arm and attaches itself to your face to suck out brain matter or whatever, just remember you asked for it by rejecting me.

[ look at how kind of a soul she is. ]

[faithlessly]

Oh, don't worry. I'll come runnin' to you first if that happens, be your problem and all that jazz.

[ a brainless dean, wouldn't that be fun? though not very different from the normal... ]

video; it's an a+ effort

[tirade]

[ yeah, buffy's getting the vibe dean being brainless wouldn't change much, tbh... ]

You're already my problem.

[ she's just saying. ]
