[Sam is sitting in a chair in the library, surrounded by all of the books, and he looks somewhat tired, but in good spirits. For the most part. Save for that whole 'he definitely hasn't slept' thing.]

Hey -- I think this thing's on... anyway, I'm Sam Winchester.

[Ordinarily he'd never give out his full name, seeing as they're on the run from the Leviathan and all that, but he's ascertained the big bads aren't around -- so a little honesty couldn't hurt, especially with what he's about to ask.]

Nice to meet everyone. I was wondering if anyone could give me a couple of answers to some questions -- you don't have to, and it's obviously not obligatory, but I'd appreciate it.

First, how many of you have any kind of supernatural ability that was taken away when you got here? It doesn't matter what it is -- telekinesis, the ability to fly -- if anything changed, I'd like to know. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, but knowing what changed is important in knowing how we all got here in the first place.

[And, more importantly, how to get out.]

Second, I was wondering if anyone could tell me where to find some chalk and some spices. Specifically, rosemary, allspice, or nutmeg. Salt would be good, too. I know there's probably a grocery store or something like that around, but any pointers would be great. And, uh --

[Sam pauses before clearing his throat, thumping his pen against the table for a few seconds before continuing.]

Hypothetically speaking, if you had a coat with a lot of blood on it, what would you do to get it out? And I need to know where to find non-blood-stained clothes that'd fit a normal-sized human being. ... hypothetically.

You'd manage if you had to learn how to walk.

Hah, sure! There's nothin' that can stop this hedgehog! It'd just be a pain, that's all.

You've settled in pretty well considering not everyone else is like you.

[Human, that is.]

What can I say? I'm a flexible guy. If I can handle time travel, pocket dimensions, and Ant's cookin', I can totally roll with a place like this.

[smartwinchester.livejournal.com]

[... whoa, wait a second.]

You know what a pocket dimension is?

[waypastcool.livejournal.com]

I've been in one before. Place is called the Void, and it was totally weird.

Plus, if ya spend too much time in there, you'll turn into crystal if you try and leave.

[smartwinchester.livejournal.com]

How did you break out of it?

[waypastcool.livejournal.com]

This dude named Naugus busted me out. He's got the power to control the Void. If he wanted to, he could open and close it at the drop of a hat.

Is it just a power thing or was there a ritual behind it?

[waypastcool.livejournal.com]

No ritual. Just some tough magic.

[smartwinchester.livejournal.com]

Do you know how the magic worked?

[waypastcool.livejournal.com]

[He shakes his head, shrugging.]

No clue. All I know is that he's got complete power over the place. The guy can do practically anything with it. Plus, he can use his mondo magic spells to change his looks and cover folks with crystal.
