2nd Floor Common Room, Early Friday Morning

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Unable to stand being alone in her room any longer, Callisto made her way up to the second floor common room.

Flopping down on the couch, she turned on the television, eventually tuning into a Slightly Demented Nun documentary.

[ooc: open to all. And for anyone interested the documentary is meant to be the one shot during the 'Art Final'.]

Bel glanced warily at Dean as he entered the room. "Hey," he said neutrally.

Great. Demon. Dean nodded warily at him. "Hey." He slid his hand into his jeans pocket where he'd taken to carrying a flask of holy water just in case. "How's things? Done anything demonic lately?"

[demonbelthazor]

Bel rolled his eyes. "Yeah, I sacrificed a virgin under the full mooon just the other day," he said. "And then I ate a baby."

"Demon humour," Dean said, rolling his own eyes. "Ha, ha. Look, you can't blame a guy for asking." Though granted, if Bel was being all demony, he probably wasn't going to actually be honest about it.

[demonbelthazor]

"I told you I don't do that anymore," Bel said. "I use my powers for good now."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, dude, whatever. I'm sure you're spending all your spare time saving orphans and puppies."

[demonbelthazor]

"I would if necessary," Bel said, "but generally, I spend my spare time with my girlfriend, going to school, or hanging out in one of the common rooms." He gave Dean a tight smile. "But lately I've been spending far too much of my time telling people I'm not evil anymore."

Dean shrugged. "I've been spending too much of my time telling people I'm not Alec. We all have our crosses to bear."

[demonbelthazor]

"Just wait 'til the next time there's a zombie invasion or snowman attack," Bel said. "You'll be begging me to use my powers to help you then, demonic or not."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, right." Dean snorted. "I went on my first zombie hunt when I was twelve. I've dealt with plenty of other kinds of supernatural nasties too. I think I can handle myself. I wouldn't be holding your breath waiting for me to beg for your help if I was you."

[demonbelthazor]

"Whatever," Bel said. He idly conjured a ball of fire and tossed it between his hands.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean's eyes narrowed and he tightened his grip on the flask of holy water. "Is that supposed to impress me?"

[demonbelthazor]

"Hmm?" Bel said innocently. "Oh, this? Nah, just a habit I have. I like to play with fire."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"That's a good way to get burned," Dean observed, an edge to his voice.

[demonbelthazor]

"You don't like fire?" Bel asked.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"It has its uses," Dean admitted. "Surest way to lay a spirit to rest is to salt and burn the bones. But fire in the hands of a demon?" He shook his head, memories of running from a fire with Sammy in his arms far closer to the surface than he liked them. "No, I don't like it."

[demonbelthazor]

Bel clapped his hands together and extinguished the fireball. "Part of what I am," he said with a shrug. "It's as natural as breathing to me. But I'll try not to do it around you."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean relaxed just the tiniest bit when the fire disappeared. "I'd appreciate it," he said, levelly.

[demonbelthazor]

"I only use it to protect myself and my friends now," Bel said. He grinned a little. "And to light cigarettes."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Bet that's just a great party trick," Dean observed, feeling the tension ease a little more. He relaxed his grip on the flask of holy water as it looked more like he wasn't going to need it.

[demonbelthazor]

"Yeah, I come in real handy for marshmallow roasts," Bel chuckled.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

In spite of himself, Dean smiled at the absurdity of roasting marshmallows with demon fire. "Parties and campouts," he added to his last statement.

[demonbelthazor]

"And moving heavy stuff. And transporting people across the country." Bel sighed dramatically. "My work is never done."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Doesn't sound like it leaves much time for the rescuing of orphans and puppies," Dean observed, sounding almost friendly.

[demonbelthazor]

"You don't get much sleep being a hero," Bel nodded in agreement.
