[The feed shows Castle laying on his bed, looking half-asleep or maybe just bored. He could probably be doing something productive, something that could benefit the war effort in some way, but would rather ask the population at large a question.]

Hey, Asgard - What's your favorite book?

[He's not doing research of any kind, just purely curious. But if anyone asks, this is somehow related to the Welcoming Committee. Don't worry, he'll make it work.]

Do you think we need to be worried about him?

You're asking a half-demon with daddy issues if she thinks you should worry about Satan. [She sighed.] In principle? Yes. Right now? I don't know of anything specific.

Yes, I was referring to more immediate danger rather than your personal feelings about him.

Honestly he's never presented anything to me other than indifference, but, as you said - Satan.

That's basically the size of it. He hasn't done anything, but I'll never let my guard down around him because of what he is. It's a good policy with him.

The nakedness is kind of weird. And the boobs.

Yes and no. I mean, it freaks me out too, and I always prefer he... she... it...whatever. Clothed. That's the point. But angels and demons are weird. They weren't really designed to be like humans. Succubi and incubi are kind of an insult to the whole idea of child-bearing. Normally, they're spirits and they don't really care about gender the way humans do.

At least where I came from anyway.

It makes sense. I'll take your word for it. You've got a lot more experience in this area than I do.

consider that a good thing. Curiosity aside, most of them are a serious pain in the ass on good days.

Believe me, I'm glad I don't have experience. It's been enough to deal with murderers and other psychos.

Those can be a real treat at times, but most of them are just human so it's a different sort of evil. Most of them. You probably wouldn't be that surprised what people are capable of if you've dealt with that sort.

Yes, that's true. They're mortal.

[He thinks about 3XK, the killer with a personal vendetta against him whom he'd thrown off a bridge into the Hudson. No body was ever found, and as any good storyteller knows, if there's no body, death isn't a guarantee.]

Anything can die. It's more... most humans I've ever met had limited vision when it came to death, unless they were truly insane. Those... were special, in a not good way.

We fear death. It's hard to imagine what it would be like if we didn't have that fear.

Re: Video; private

[samantha_grey]

Which is why insane people can be as dangerous as they are at times. But we know this. [She grunted.] How'd we get on this? Weren't we talking about books?

Video; private

[writeswrongs]

We were and then we started talking about you being half-demon and kind of segued from there.

Conversations are weird. That's what I say, though I suppose that makes sense in its own way. It'll happen. Not sure where to go next. We went to hell already, and I don't know heaven. F that place, seriously.
