"Sam," she says before he goes to make his call. "I'm going to do my best not to die."
It's the promise she can give at the moment.
Since sacrificing herself and helping Sam fulfill his destiny, Rowena tired of Hell. Being Queen was unlike anything else, but like she explained to the boys, she missed her creature comforts. Like she always does, she finds her way back. She doesn't crawl, however. She emerges a swan. Very few know she's been topside for a few years, but the Winchesters and her have always been close.
... Maybe not always. But, recently. They've come to be like family to her. Her boys, the nephilim Jack and the handsome angel.
Sam Winchester's call is one she'll always answer. )
If it isn't the youngest Winchester. To what do I owe this pleasure, Samuel?
no subject
Technically he's the middle Winchester, but he doesn't intend to correct her right now.]
I wanted to pick your brain about something. This is probably a dumb question to ask, but have you heard of the Colony?
no subject
Her congenial, slightly tipsy tone turns as she finds a quiet corner in the party she's crashed. )
What have you gotten yourself mixed up in, Samuel?
no subject
[Because it's true, technically he's not involved yet.]
But we're hearing some rumors about them starting something they call the Gauntlet. And if what we found in the Men of Letters archives is true, I figured if nothing else I should warn you.
no subject
And warn me, you have.
( She tries to keep the affection apparent in her voice, but she is already thinking ten steps ahead. )
You wouldn't be calling me if you weren't at least adjacent. So, I ask again. What have you gotten yourself into? Because the Gauntlet is not something a witch comes back from alive. And you my star pupil shouldn't be anywhere near such a sporadic tradition.
no subject
Someone I know owes one of the heirs a favor. So however far she winds up getting in is how far I will. And my brother's been cozying up with the Petrova Doppelganger.
[So, you know, walking talking spell ingredients witches might come for.]
no subject
( She is nothing if not Rowena if she doesn't insert herself in the mix. )
I'd say I can be by within the week, but you must promise me not to mix yourself up in this before. Your friend better play in her own sandbox. Dean, neither you or I could get through, but I do hope you're speaking of Katherine. Poor Damien, but she has a closet to die for.
( She pauses ever so gracefully. )
It's Elena Gilbert, isn't it?
( Lab coats do not go with her complexion. )
no subject
[So yes, it's Elena.]
Though Katherine is hanging out at the bunker too, if you'd like to better make her acquaintance when you get here.
[As for the promise, she should know by now that he can't make that. They don't go looking for trouble, trouble finds them.]
no subject
Both doppelgangers? ( Nothing brings them together. Which means Sam and Dean have gotten into something. ) I will be there within a week.
( Dean and Katherine better not tear each other apart in the meantime. )
no subject
[He didn't even get to tell her who he was dating. He lets her go with that, then turns back to Allison with a sigh.]
She'll be here in a week.
no subject
Let's hope she's more concerned about the Colony than who Dean happens to be dating.
no subject
[He smirks.]
And she doesn't even know about you yet. There'll be plenty to keep her occupied.
no subject
Meanwhile, Bonnie leaves Isaac to finish unpacking and makes her way back into the main room. She asks Allison to give them a moment, laying everything out on the table-so-speak. )
And, ever since, my magic isn't just off, it's uncontrollable. I've lost it before, but this is something different. Magic is about intention and conviction, but the targets of my spells, even minor ones -- I hurt Ryan. I -- magnified the sounds around us, instead of drawing everything silent. I don't know what to do.
no subject
What was the artifact called?
no subject
( And beyond, she gathers. )
no subject
[He nods, before doing a brief scan over the books to see what they have (10) and if what he needs isn't there, he'll go digging in the library to see if the Men of Letters have anything.]
no subject
no subject
Not much. But I do have a very powerful magic friend coming, so if we can take a week, she might have more answers for you.
[But because he should probably warn her.]
Rowena MacLeoud.
no subject
I thought Rowena MacLeoud was dead.
no subject
[A beat as he swallows because sometimes the best way to say something is to just spit it out.]
She's the Queen of Hell, so that gives her some leeway to come and go.
no subject
( How does that even work? )
You're friendly with the Queen of Hell.
no subject
[And as far as them being on friendly terms with the person controlling Hell ...]
It happens more often than you think?
[If he had a nickel ... he would only have two nickels, but weird that it's happened twice.]
no subject
( As strange a sentence as that is. )
