Our Lady of Fandom, Thursday

[scruffnfeathers]

Something was decidedly odd about Castiel, today. More so than usual, in fact. For one thing, instead of standing stock still at the front of the church throughout the entire service, he instead seemed to be swaying slightly and nodding his head, as though to some unheard music. His tie had come off at some point, and more buttons on his shirt were open than was usual. His trench coat was missing. And perhaps most disturbing of all, he was smiling.

If it weren't for the fact that he was standing behind the pulpit, someone might notice that this was probably due to the fact that he had a gremlin on his leg, gnawing cheerfully away. The gremlin's venom, it seemed, was affecting Castiel much in the way that certain drugs were known to affect people.

In other words, he was higher than a freaking kite.

He seemed to start his sermon in the middle.

"So, in this way, we're each a fragment of total perception. Just -- just one compartment. In that dragonfly eye of group mind. Now, the key to this total -- total -- shared perception. It can be . . . surprisingly physical."

Someone should possibly stop him.

[ooc: OCD is coming up. And yes, I'm totally riffing gremlin-bit!Cass from 5x04 - The End. I love this canon. For serious.]

Listen to the sermon

[scruffnfeathers]

Such as it is.

...

Arthur hadn't realised it was possible for Castiel's sermons to make less sense, but apparently he had been woefully mistaken.

This would be his WTF is up, yo face, people.

Francine, having done a little research... still had nothing besides, "Chuck says he didn't do it."

Re: Listen to the sermon

[bitchprince]

"And since when do we trust Chuck?" Arthur inquired, sanely.

Re: Listen to the sermon

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Chuck didn't know whether to sit back and laugh or try to do something.

Maybe he'd just look confused first. That seemed like a good plan.

Re: Listen to the sermon

[thatsamilkshake]

That would be a Francine-finger poking him on the shoulder from the pew behind him. "Did you do that?" she hissed, pointing past his ear to the pulpit.

"Oh god, I wish I did that," Chuck said as he turned around. "Whatever he's on, I didn't give it to him."

Re: Listen to the sermon

[thatsamilkshake]

Francine's WTF face couldn't be more obvious if it came with helpful scrolling commentary.

The terrifying part was where after listening to him for a while, she actually had kind of a suspicion in the right direction, if slightly, as usual, off-base.

Tony wasn't much of a churchgoer, but he was curious about his heavenly propsmaster and decided to check things out.

The sermon was not what he'd expected.

Talk to Castiel

[scruffnfeathers]

Or, you know, try to, at least.

Re: Talk to Castiel

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Fine, LJ, eat my comment. See if I care

Chuck was tempted to just let this go on and possibly film the whole thing because this was just hilarious. But that conscience thing kicked in and he decided it was his duty as a friend to try to stop this. So after a few minutes of staring he approached Castiel. Slowly. Because he was acting crazyflakes.

"Uh...hey, Cass. You alright?"

Re: Talk to Castiel

[scruffnfeathers]

Cass looked over and griiiiiiiinned. "The playboy! I'm well, Chuck, how are you?"

He seemed rather intent on the answer to that last question.

Re: Talk to Castiel

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Oh dear god.

"I'm...good," he said slowly. "Though I don't think I'm as good as you are right now. Have you been talking to Andy again?"

Re: Talk to Castiel

[likethegun]

Sam had a lot of questions about the books he'd found in the library, even without actually looking at them, and he forgot every single one as he watched Castiel's attempt at a sermon.

"Um," he said, staring. Yeah, that was as far as he could get at the moment.

Re: Talk to Castiel

[scruffnfeathers]

"Sam Winchester," Castiel said when he spotted him. "Haven't been drinking any demon blood, have you?" And then he laughed.

Kind of a lot.

Re: Talk to Castiel

[likethegun]

"Haven't...what?" Sam asked, somehow managing to stare harder. "No, I...are you okay?" That didn't seem as stupid of a question before he'd actually said it.

Re: Talk to Castiel

[wantstodirect]

"Hey," Tony said. "Good sermon. Way better than the ones my mom used to drag me to."

Re: Talk to Castiel

[scruffnfeathers]

Castiel grinned at him. "I'm glad you liked it! It's . . . not quite what I usually go with, but it seemed very important to share those thoughts with you all."

Re: Talk to Castiel

[wantstodirect]

"I like the look, too," Tony said, gesturing at Castiel's open shirt.

And... he was totally checking out an angel. If being a gay wizard who worked in television hadn't been enough to send him to Hell, he certainly had a seat reserved for him now.

Re: Talk to Castiel

[noteviltwin.livejournal.com]

Andy stopped in, having decided to talk to Castiel again, but was less certain after hearing his sermon. Or, more specifically, his idea about what to talk to the angel about had changed.

"Dude, what are you on?" he asked by way of an conversational opening gambit.

Re: Talk to Castiel

[scruffnfeathers]

Having already spoken with Chuck and Sam, Castiel could even answer that. "Gremlin, apparently. Or rather, it's on me."

OOC

[scruffnfeathers]

Yeah, so I coulda saved this for AU weekend, but it turns out I'm not that patient.

Also, OMG, I'VE BEEN IN THIS GAME OFF AND ON SINCE '06 AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME ONE OF MY CHARACTERS HAS BEEN GREMLIN BIT.

Re: OOC

[likethegun]

IT IS A GOOD FIRST BITE. :D

Re: OOC

[scruffnfeathers]

Thanks!

Sam totally needs to meet gremlin-bit!Cass, ja? *flutters eyelashes*

Re: OOC

[thatsamilkshake]

I love how both of our characters automatically assume Chuck did it.
