.01 caliber [ action + video ]

[ The first thing that Cougar registers, beside the fact that the process of arrival is as annoying the second time around as it is the first, is that it's cold. There's snow covering the city now, a bit jarring compared to his last memories of both here and home, but nothing he can't deal with

[ Cougar is welcomed with a bright smile and a familiar face. WELCOME BACK MAN, snow and holidays were waiting for you! ]

Welcome back, Mr. Alvarez. I hope you're doing alright.

[theclaws]

[ He would tip his hat to you, Helen, but alas. And he could do without the snow 8( ]

Thank you. I'm fine. You?

[notanemptymotto]

[ Come over here and get a real jacket goodness. ]

I'm fine, give or take a few incidents.

[theclaws]

[ Could he 8( ]

Good to hear. Holidays are soon, sí?

[softwaring]

[Not paying attention at first, honestly:] I'm not allowed to touch the hat, remember? I've got a crappy knock-off if you want, Coug.

-Cougar? [Head shooting up, he opens his mouth, closes his mouth, then starts pointing.]

[softwaring]

[And ah-the struggle.] You're, you... Jesus, I haven't lost it, right?

You're actually back, yeah?

[theclaws]

... crappy knock-off? [ Why do you have a crappy knock-off of his hat, Jensen.

But the question just gets a nod and a small twist of his mouth in a smile. ] Hola.

[softwaring]

Don't- don't ask dumb questions right now. [Rubbing at his face now, unable to keep what looks like his dweebiest grin yet, mixed with some unbelievable emotion.]

You asshole. Sure know how to keep someone waiting, you know that?

[Dean watches him with curiosity.] You're friends with Jensen? Welcome back, I guess.

[theclaws]

Mm. Teammates. [ A nod to the welcome, though. ] Thank you. He's been being good?

[ Kid kind of has a tendency of pissing some people off just by breathing, so Cougar has to make sure... ]

[likemichael]

Ah, I gotcha. [He shrugs a little.] Good as the rest of us, I figure. He's a good guy, friends with a buddy of mine and me.

[theclaws]

Good to hear. [ Slightest quirk at the corner of his mouth in a smile, but it's quick to vanish. And if he knows Jensen, well, it's only polite to introduce himself, so - ] Name's Cougar.

You were in the city before? [Cue curiosity.] I'm not sure when you left, but everyone is recovering from a strange event where many of us lost touch with reality.

[theclaws]

Not long. It... wasn't snowing. [ He frowns at the white stuff, then shakes his head, raising a brow at that description. ] 'Lost touch with reality'?

[alwaysfindshim]

That's only been since the 1st of December, really. [She nods a little bit.] It was an unfortunate week where a lot of us became alternate versions of ourselves, a lot of us turning... evil, in fact. It was horrible, to say the least.

[theclaws]

Disorienting. [ But he's paying more attention to the rest, unable to help the vaguely concerned look at that. ] Was it the Serpent?
