❛ Well, I won’t mind a Chatty Cathy when I get a couple glasses in me, but I hope you’re not in your anger inducing mood. Unless of course that doesn’t get too ugly. That’s the last thing I need right now. ❜ She needed some time to relax instead of deal with an ornery demon.
‘ it all depends on the luck of the draw. ’ or, rather, how he was feeling after several drinks in. getting angry was easy, but restraining himself wasn’t, ‘ personally? i’ll try to keep myself under control. well, mostly. ’
“Yeah. Pissin off a demon ya ain’t gonna kill should probably be on everyone’s what not to do list.”
She supposed that made sense, somehow a lot worse than making a deal because that meant it could happen to any hunter and probably had happened to plenty of them. “And I’m sure Hell is designed to make sure nobody forgets it.”
“To be fair, it’s even worse when the very demon that you pissed off his family, and you can tell how well that will go over with get-togethers.” There was a full out roll of his eyes, “It’s not something anyone should do; human, demon, or otherwise, it just leads to more questions, and you know how demons are with ‘creative’ punishment.”
‘ i’m sure they really appreciated that gift. so generous.’
raisa chuckled, finding it rather comical.
‘ i’m a little surprised to hear of one so obsessed, though. i mean, sure, something gets away most of us lose sleep at night… but most hunters don’t want to deal with international travel.’
‘ to be fair, i may have done something to piss them off. ’ honestly, he didn’t even want to think about it. murder was easy, but actually talking about his own personal actions? well, that was ten times harder, ‘ then again, most hunters don’t let themselves get knocked out by a demon either. ’
“That sounds like some serious mojo. I’m guessing you’re far from human.”
“Humanity is boring.” He mused, “You look at it from any angle and they are limited.” Not to mention weak, but Ky wasn’t about to admit that, “More to the point….. this ‘mojo’ i have? It was learned….and inherited.’
“Doesn’t mean you’re damned for eternity because you never had a soul. I mean, you stay topside you can do whatever the hell you want unless you’re caught by the likes of me for blindly killing people.” Sid didn’t know much about Hell, just that he had killed a few demons. It wouldn’t surprise him too much if Ky had never had a soul. “So there’s that. There’s always that. Everyone has the ability to make their own choices. – In most situations.”
“I make contracts.” Usually, “I give people what they want. Sometimes they just don’t know what they are signin’ and it isn’t my fault.” Maybe it was, but Ky wasn’t going to admit that. Not here, not now, and least of all, not to a hunter ( didn’t matter who they were ), “Even then, staying top-side has it’s risks. Eventually, someone will send me back there again, and trust me. It won’t be pretty with all the shit i’ve pulled.”
“You found hell amusing? That’s new.” Dean didn’t like to talk about it… and she knew it was because he fell into the trap of torturing others. But she didn’t think he should blame himself too harshly. Nobody could how how they would react in a situation like that. “Sucks that we can’t forget what we wish to. Our mind governs the memories it represses. Believe me I would block out a lot of my memories.”
“I find several things amusing.” Not that he would actually discuss them all to her, but then again, times changed, and he could eventually work up to it, “Hell just seemed to be the only one at the time that fit that description, but truthfully? I would forget several things. Well, more than I know already, but that is besides the point.”
‘there’s not too many of them around these days. guess vampires are the easiest thing for any hunter to pick out of a headline when they’re not being too cautious. happens when they get a pretty large nest going.’ of course, he couldn’t tell how many were out there behaving appropriately, but it was something noteworthy that he hadn’t picked up any paper in months that screamed vampire.
‘can’t imagine livin’ after that. easily more war torn than even a veteran hunter.’ if they died right off, they had those moments to feel grateful that it was over… but not long enough to live through the damage that it had done.
‘vampires are easy to pick out due to the fact they are more well known in the world. stick in an area long enough and you can find them. ‘course, the same goes for most creatures.’ not that ky would ever hunt any so called ‘monster’ in his life, but if pointed in the right direction, anyone could turn into a hunter. it wouldn’t be a hard stretch for a demon to do it either — especially not these.
‘then again, livin’ after something possesses you isn’t the best way of life. the body is more or less destroyed, broken, and what else. i mean, i can heal, but i wouldn’t want to know what it would be like if i couldn’t.’
“Don’t matter how impractical it is. If ya want to get away from a hound I’m assumin’ the only way to do that is kill it. Which becomes increasingly difficult considerin’ I can’t see the damn things.” Briefly, Crowley crossed his mind, but there was no way in Hell he would be able to figure out how to get the King of Hell to call off one of the hounds.
“Killing it isn’t as easy as it would seem.” Ky might be able to see them, but he still wasn’t going to risk having to take one down. Not to say it wouldn’t be a good idea, but at the same time, he was going to avoid it as best as he could, “Given enough time, I could pull it off, but I doubt it would win me any points back home.”
❛ i guess i understand the will to run. i have ran from pretty much every portion of my life. i’m hoping that this one sticks. it’s been pretty awesome so far. ❜
before this he had always wanted to run. from his family, from his college, from his days of bouncing around and barely making ends meet. he felt like he lived a strong purpose in this bar, in addition to having fun whenever he wanted to.
‘ there are still times i want to keep running.’ honestly, ky would have enjoyed it if he didn’t have to deal with anything. to live a normal life where the most important thing he needed to deal with was bills and what to wear. though, he didn’t have a choice in that life. nor, did he ever think he would have one anytime soon. if he did, he would have had to weigh everything against each other, and then decide. ‘it’s just….. easier to not fight against it at times.’
❝ can’t remember because you’re older than dirt? though it wouldn’t surprise me the way the world is now that some people slipped through without souls… how it always was i suppose. since god and his winged introvert soldiers actually exist. ❞ he was still in awe from how non-hidden the angels had become and how so many people ignored it and wrote it off. keeping themselves in the dark about the presence of monsters.
“Can’t remember ‘cause I was born like this.” Or, if he could remember, he personally chose not to do so. His own memory was shattered, his first trip to hell had been willingly, but one that had marked him for the rest of his existence. He wasn’t ready, he wasn’t even prepared to deal with the after-effects it, but he knew now that it wasn’t worth it, “Either way, It doesn’t matter much too much. Soul or otherwise… it doesn’t change the state of things.”
