'listen to the warning' the prophet he said

[godsprophet]

Who: Chuck Shurley and OPEN.
What: There's only one way forward, and this is it.
When: Day 121.
Where: The tunnels.
Notes: No, really, this is wide open. I made very little OOC plans so come at me.

Raphael had come by earlier and said he would actually bodily drag Chuck into the tunnels if he didn't go willingly. But it didn't seem like he had an option either way. Earthquakes kept shifting below his feet -- it seemed to be tearing the entire cape apart. He had no doubt that, if he stayed, he wouldn't be alive to see whatever happened to the little town where they were held captive.

Chuck spends most of the time trying to decide what to take with him. Specifically, his typewriter. Balthazar had gotten it for him, and he'd used it well. It seemed like a shame to leave it behind. But, on the other hand, it wasn't exactly lucrative to go about dragging a typewriter through a series of tunnels who knows how long. He reluctantly leaves it behind.

He enters the tunnels alone and is glad he did. The effect is so instantaneous and so sudden he nearly trips over himself. Because, while he might not use all the omniscient and omnipotent powers he has at his disposal, he's always aware that it's there, hiding underneath his fingertips. But now, in these tunnels, it's gone. Vanished. Disappeared. He's honestly nothing more than the human he pretends to be.

It's an uncomfortable reminder of the amount of power this place -- these scientists -- hold over him, and it's not one he appreciates. He's never felt truly powerless, literally and figuratively, before, and he does not approve of these feelings in himself whatsoever.

But there's no place to go but forward. And so forward into the tunnels he goes.

Even powerless archangels are pretty terrifying as far as Meg is concerned. In fact she'd be more than happy if all the angels up and left - apart from Cas, obviously, and maybe Balthazar. Then again, she'd gladly get rid of Crowley while she's at it too. Come on, the place would be much more peaceful and people would be less worried about getting stabbed.

Meg rolls her eyes. "You can take care of yourself? Really? And here I thought you were a helpless little puppy dog..." She inches closer, crowding in on Chuck's personal space.

[godsprophet]

Not all the angels were bad. Samandriel wasn't terrifying. Balthazar was surprisingly nice. Anna had been sweet, before she left. Castiel was always polite.

But Michael? Lucifer? Zachariah?

Really, Chuck's just hoping the Cape isn't going to become Apocalypse 2.0. Especially after the first one had just been averted.

Meg moves closer and Chuck leans back. Dean might have vouched for her, but that doesn't make him any less wary about being around a demon.

"What? No, no, of course I can take care of myself. Just because I'm not a Winchester doesn't mean I'm not... you know, incompetent or anything."

[foundacause]

Balthazar really is nice - in all the right ways. And his meatsuit is all kinds of pretty. And don't get Meg started on Cas. No, seriously. There are feelings there that shouldn't ever exist in a demon. It's kind of gross and sappy.

The others though? Nope. No. Meg wants no part of that.

Aw, Chuck. Don't be wary. Don't you trust Dean's word? Well, he is a Winchester and they tend to be fabulous at screwing up. So maybe it's wise to be wary. But it hurts her precious little feelings. Meg leans in further, resting her hands on the side of the tunnel either side of his head. "Oh?"

With a smirk, she presses her lips to his.

[godsprophet]

Chuck does trust the word of the Winchesters. They stopped the Apocalypse, they saved people, they hunted things. The Winchesters were good people and of course Chuck trusts them.

But trusting a demon? Putting trust into a Lucifer loyal demon while he was all alone in a tunnel?

Yeah, that doesn't sound like one of his better plans. Of course, he wasn't expecting this.

"Wha--" is all he gets out before Meg kisses him and Chuck just... instantly blue screen on deaths, please press any key to continue.

Does... does he kiss her back? He had broken up with Becky, and it had been a while since he'd... you know. But, on the other hand, she was a demon. He's pretty sure there are some sort of moral implications to that or... something.

And so, he just...

????

Ex-Lucifer Loyalist. Let's please remember she's playing for Team Winchester now. Well, okay, she's playing for Team Fuck-I'm-In-Love-With-An-Angel, but that just happens to coincide with Team Winchester for the time being.

And Lucifer still scares the crap out of her. But she's dealing with that... Kinda.

But really. The whole time she's been here how much trouble has she caused? None. Well, there was the incident in the bar but she was the victim and there was the incident with Crowley but he deserved it.

She kisses him for a moment longer before breaking it. She remains in his personal space, almost nose to nose with him, with a smirk on her lips.

All things considered, Meg has kept out of trouble remarkably well. He supposes that might have something to do with her continued presences in the lives of the Winchesters and Castiel. They did that to people. He's not sure how, but he can't exactly ignore the evidence when it's standing right in front of him.

Meg pulls back, but not away and Chuck blinks owlishly at her. His gaze travels from her eyes to her lips, back up to her eyes. Wow, she was.... she was still standing really close.

"Uh..." Which is about the best he's got at the moment because what? Granted, Meg wasn't a bad kisser, and he greatly prefers to be kissed to killed, but, no, seriously, what?

[foundacause]

He should totally write the epic love story of her and her unicorn. Only not. Because then she would be forced to stab him in the face repeatedly until he had no face left to stab. It would be messy and it would be a shame to destroy such a pretty face.

And really, the whole deer in the headlights thing he's doing right now? Kinda cute. But he doesn't seem to be doing much to defend himself, does he? Only goes to show he can't take care of himself all alone in the tunnels.

Oh well, since she's still this close to him she might as well steal another kiss - after all, his angelic handlers will probably smite her once they're powered back up.

[godsprophet]

If he'd been alive -- or, would be alive? Timelines were confusing -- by the time Meg realizes her epic unicorn love for Castiel, he would have written it. However, there was that pesky 'Only one prophet allowed at a time' rule and, well. Kevin had called dibs. Her love story will have to remain unwritten.

But Meg kisses him again and you know what he's only human, okay? Especially at the current moment, with the the whole lack of powers deal. There's only so much he can take when a woman has pushed him up against the wall and is repeatedly kissing him.

And so Chuck kisses her back. After all, she's just as human as he is, currently. He doesn't have that much to lose, and makeouts to gain. Even if she is a demon.

[foundacause]

Well who made that rule in the first place, hmm? Was it God? Chuck has no one else to blame but himself. Everything ever is God's fault, okay? And if it's not God's fault then it's the Winchester's fault!

Besides, Kevin is an adorable little nerd to keep around the place. Shame he's not here to brighten the place up a bit.

Oh, hang on. Did Chuck just find his balls and kiss Meg back? He did! He is kissing her back. This is a thing that is happening. She smirks against his lips before kissing him harder, parting her own lips to invite him in.
