Sunday Evening - Fifth Floor Common Room

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter was sitting on the couch with a bowl of popcorn in front of him and a box of cookies from J. GOB.  He'd found some Coca-Cola (and still couldn't get over the fact it came in cans now) and was flipping through the channels on the TV.

Oooh, war movie.  That looked interesting.  The planes looked familiar too.  Peter sat forward in his seat as the title rolled.  Rescuing Corproral Smith?  Did they make movies about World War II now?


OOC: open for all of course but especially saltandammo

"I like the way you think," Peter grinned. "On the other hand, she was somehow in England when we were ought to have been at home."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean frowned. "I thought you were from England."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Originally. But we managed to stumble into another world after leaving London. That's home now."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Maybe not to her?" Dean suggested tentatively.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"I don't...think so. She remembers the same things I remember from there. She knows who she is."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"No, I meant... maybe she still thinks -- thought -- thinks of London as home. Regardless."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Perhaps...the Su I knew certainly thought of Narnia as home."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean shrugged. "You know her better than I do obviously."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter considered. "I think I'm just going to have to get more information about the situation from her. She'll have to answer if I ask straight out." He looked over at Dean and grinned, "hey, my thanks for not kicking my ass for starting to talk about my sister. And for helping with it."

"No problem. I.. uh... kinda had something... well it wasn't the same as you and your sister, but kinda like that. With Sam."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Oh? How so? If I'm not prying into your affairs."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Nah, I wouldn't have mentioned it if I wasn't willing to talk about it. Y'see, I kinda went missing for three years."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Really? Did you ever figure out what happened? And Sam stayed in your original reality?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean nodded. "Yeah. It was some kind of portal to a pocket dimension or something. Time moved slower there; it was only a few hours for me before Dad got me out."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter considered Dean's statement a few seconds before responding, "that's very strange. Were you under attack in the dimension? Was it always winter there?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Nah. It just seemed to be an empty series of caves." Memories of wandering from one cave to another looking for a way out swirled in his mind and he did his best to push them back down to where they only came out in bad dreams.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Sounds like a few hours was enough. If not a few too many."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean snorted. "Yeah, you can say that again."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"I'm glad your father got you out. They're handy things to have sometimes, fathers are."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Yeah." Dean smiled. "Dad's pretty cool."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter grinned back at Dean then looked at the action of the movie.

"Wait, they got all the way there, and everyone DIED? How is that heroic?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"War is hell?" Dean suggested with a shrug.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Well, yes, but...it's still a movie, right?"
