[VOICE]; UN: [USERNAME NOT SET]

[demonicbeauty]

[Well, that's quite the beginning of a conversation.]

You did...literally offer to teach me about sex. On the network, remember?

[It's what got Anakin all snarly.]

I'm a bit confused.

[By...just about all of that sentence. And to her credit, she sounds baffled too.]

Does 'literal' mean something else, this time?

[venatoris]

He thought I literally fucked you.

Which I didn't. I didn't even hit on you for Christ's sake. Did you say anything to him?

[ Because if Cas had just seen the network shit he would've realized it was entirely innocent. Probably. But Cas didn't mention shit about that so that leads Dean to believe something got said, that then got misconstrued and instead of talking like normal fucking adults, they did all..

this. ]

[demonicbeauty]

[She makes a noise. It's hard to parse if it's surprise, disgust, amusement, or some strange combination of all three.]

What? Of course not. Why would I lie about that? It was Sam who wanted to--

[Oh, she should not have said that...]

[venatoris]

What?!

[demonicbeauty]

[This is what she gets for trying to live honestly, isn't it?

The gods are having fun with her today.]

Sam overheard us discussing sex and apparently thought that meant that I would be interested in copulating with him.

I mentioned it to Cas, but I certainly never would say anything to imply that you and I...

Dean, I'm sure you're very talented at sex, but you're like my brother.

[venatoris]

[ yes. yes it is. ]

Sam. Sam Winchester. My brother hit you up to get laid?

[ and no one has told him about this? what the hell. what the HELL. ]

You mentioned it to Cas--of course I'm talented at sex, yeah--wait a minute. Brother?

[ There's a lot to parse in all these words. What the fuck. Like, he's glad she's finally considering him family but also hmph :| ]

[demonicbeauty]

[She can sense his frustration. And kind of shares it. But she's holding back half of the story and, really, so is he.]

Dean...what's a "revenge orgy?" And why would Cas want to "piss you off?"

[The words sound strange and alien coming out of her sweet little mouth. But she's trying here!]

What's at the root of this?

[venatoris]

Man, Airy...

I don't even know anymore.

[demonicbeauty]

[A deep breath. She lets it out slowly.]

Evelyn, Cas, and I had tea the other day. Never once, in our entire conversation, did I say that you and I had sex.

[And that's the truth. Even if it's missing the parts about their concerns around Sam and his soul.]

What did Cas do?

[venatoris]

He was under the impression that we had, for some reason. So he threw a big ass orgy at the house - our house, out of spite, cause he's petty like that.

[demonicbeauty]

Why would he...

[You can almost hear the light bulb click in her head.]

You're in a relationship with him. He got jealous!

[venatoris]

...Why do you sound so damn pleased about that?

[demonicbeauty]

I'm not, I'm furious with him! How dare he try to hurt you!

[But a furious Airy is basically a fluffy, white kitten trying hard to be a tiger.

All the same, there's no greater crime among Alastrians than hurting your own mate. It just isn't done.]

[venatoris]

He didn't--

[ well, yeah he did. but-- ]

He thought I'd done it first. It didn't used to be outta the realm of possibility for me. So I guess I can understand it.

[ Like. It sucked, and it's cute that she's mad on his behalf. People so rarely are. ]

[demonicbeauty]

Dean, I...

I am so, so sorry that he did that to you.

[And she rather wishes she'd been able to predict it. She might have chosen her words more carefully. But she was worried about Sam and she didn't think.]

And I'm sorry if I said something to...but I didn't...I would never...

[venatoris]

Yeah, me too.

[ He's getting a headache. What is his life, what a mess. ]

I know you wouldn't. It's not your fault.

[demonicbeauty]

I fear it might be.

[She scowls, even though he can't see her.]

Dean, I didn't know...

[venatoris]

I know, I know. It's okay, really. I mean it.

[demonicbeauty]

Dean...

What's a "revenge orgy?"

[venatoris]

[ oh hell no ]

This kinda conversation is what got me in trouble to begin with.

[demonicbeauty]

That bad?

[venatoris]

Bad enough.

[demonicbeauty]

Oh, gods.

[Headdesk. Possibly literally. There's a thump.]

I don't understand people's attitudes toward sex here. I really don't.

[venatoris]

What, how casual it is?

[demonicbeauty]

Well. Yes. And no.

[She takes a deep breath.]

I never thought of it as something to be discussed in whispers, but Anakin seems to think it is. And then when I talk about it openly, Cas misinterprets what I was saying.

And then Sam--

[A beat.]

Please don't tell him I told you that he asked me. I think he was embarrassed when I said no.
