... Trickster. It has to be a Trickster. Because little gray men don't exist.

Then again, today marks one year since I've been here.  I should know better by now.

Also, I'd like to know how the one following me around has managed to give my laptop more viruses in a couple of hours than Dean's ever given it without an internet connection. It infected

[The camera flips on to an Anita whose face shows perfect irritation. Her feelings are abundantly justified, as instead of its usual lush black, her hair is a perky shade of pink. When she speaks, it is through clenched teeth.]

Take my word for it and check your shampoo.

[Sam... can't bring himself to say anything for a long time, needing a few moments to just gawk at her.]

That's, uh.... good advice. It could be worse, though.

[He opens his mouth to give examples of how it could be worse, but... nope, he's got nothing.]

Oh yeah? How? I'd almost rather have had Nair. I don't do pink.

Well, at least you could dye it back. I don't think these guys are here to stay, so once they're gone, you could fix it without worrying about them trying to turn it pink again? In the mean time... hats can be very attractive.

[He smiles a little awkwardly, knowing full well that he's reaching on that one.]

For once I didn't touch your precious laptop. All my guns are in pieces. Pieces, Sam. And they thought it would be funny to take the engine and other essential parts out of the Impala. Granted there isn't anywhere I could take her, but it's the principle of the thing! You do not mess with a man's car just for kicks!

These little punks...I swear I'm going to send them back to their little alien god if I catch one.

[wayward_sam]

I was kinda worried they'd go after my weapons, too. Instead, my laptop's infected with evil extraterrestrial spyware and one of my notebooks is now oozing toothpaste between its pages. I guess they knew where to hit each one of us where it hurts.

[viva_la_impala]

Dude! Your laptop could be being transformed into Skynet. Shut it down!

Toothpaste?...Well at least it's not glue? I'm going to catch one of these things if it's the last thing I do.

[wayward_sam]

... does everything have to be a pop culture reference with you? Besides, Skynet was man-made artificial intelligence that became self-aware, not extraterrestrial in nature. You're thinking of Transformers.

I think I'd prefer glue. A book with a minty-fresh smell is just a little jarring.

The real ones are less annoying. Bizarre as hell, bu less annoying.

[wayward_sam]

I'll take your word for it.

[alwaysaboom]

Now if they would ju -- GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF THAT!

[Audio]

[wayward_sam]

Now if they'd just keep their hands to themselves? Yeah, I know the feeling.

[helena_campbell]

Until a few months ago, fairy tales weren't real either. Although it's a year for you... over half a year for me.

[wayward_sam]

Yea, like I said, you'd think I'd know better by now. I still can't believe it's now officially been a year.

[helena_campbell]

It wasn't that bad a year, was it? All things considered? [Because her stay hasn't been 10/10 but she's still hoping it will come around.]

[wayward_sam]

... aside from some startling revelations about my future and the need to recalibrate my weirdness meter, I'd say it's been pretty par for the course.

[born_from_mist]

T-trickster...? Is that w-what it is?

[wayward_sam]

In my world, a Trickster was the only thing that could create the impossible, such as aliens. Here, though, I don't know what to believe anymore.

[born_from_mist]

I-Is it like a monster?

[wayward_sam]

Technically, they're a kind of god. But yeah, depending on how they use their powers, they can definitely be called monsters.
