[ video ; a few hours before the end of port ; open ]

[ Red eyes and messed-up hair, guess who just woke up. ]

Elena! Where the frak - are you in the city. Are you dead. Don't be dead.

[ added soon after, also open: ]

Dean! What did you do with Elena's pants?

[ spam ; last few hours of port ]

[ Racetrack is buying out every single astrological sign thing from a kitschy little shop. All of it. Pillows. Jewelry. Notebooks. Hairbands.

This is probably near a beach somewhere. ]

[ video ; after port ]

Nothing like seeing a real live planet...

I'm awake, if anyone was worried.

Anyone want to go run a few miles?

She told me she was draining them to unconsciousness. Is it possible that's what she thinks?

I'm telling you she didn't care. She came off that guy like a bad drinking fountain and didn't do anything to help me save him.

She gave me some pills in a ziploc like that changes anything. And she kept trying to blame Mal because she wasn't right up her ass keeping her from being sloppy.

Okay, start from the beginning? What ziploc? What pills?

[Dean rolls his eyes and blows out a breath, but he does, in the end, start at the beginning.]

I was checking the paper, found some reports that stuck out to me. Police calls. Some stuff that read familiar to me. I've dealt with shit like this before, okay?

So I go down to stake it out - second night in, and I'm down in this stupid nightclub, and there's Elena. I hang around, check a guy that "had too much to drink" while his friends are helping him out the door, and wouldn't you know it something's had too much to drink of him, too.

She went out the back, I went out the front, we met over her next meal in an alley.

So the first guy wasn't dead.

[This is a good sign!]

Okay. And then the second guy dies and you two bang each other up a little.

The first guy in that club that night. Remember I followed three other bodies to that area.

Something like that. I interrupted, she half took out his throat, I tried to get the bleeding to stop while she tried to explain to me that no, really, she was only munching on bad guys, and oh wouldn't I like to be pissed off at anyone else for not stopping her?

The guy died, and I tried to use dead man's blood to take her back to the Barge without a fight. Newsflash: That doesn't work on her kinda vein hoover.

Frak, I forgot to set this private.

Okay. She's definitely grounded.

Feel free to help me think up a creative way to mess up her day, because that's going to be the most effective way of punishing her. The big stuff, I think she'll make herself not care about, so I'm going to try little but lingering annoyances first.

You looked her for the rest of port?

[Dean doesn't care about the private part - he hasn't said anything he wouldn't say to anyone here, except maybe he'd have been a little less overtly annoyed about vampires and hunting them.

Not like that's much of a secret anymore, though.]

Oh, I'm real good at being obnoxious. Only neon colored makeup from now on. Mismatched accessories. Short sheets. Toothpaste that makes her teeth turn green if she drinks live blood.

I tried, anyway, but it's a big city and she knew I was on to her by then. And then you guys showed up, and I uh. Yeah.

I was thinking a tag line on all the times she texts someone, like "I got caught eating people in the City of Angels".

Make sure it has one of those little smilies.

How often does she text?

I have no idea.

What about a glitter banner.

Maybe with neon lights.

And an airhorn.

I'll put in the request for the text and sees what happens.

Okay, but seriously, she was killing people.

D'you have any clue how to deal with vampires?

The file had a little primer on powers.

And honestly, Dean, she's not just... a vampire. There's a lot going on there. I think she's hurting so much that she thinks she's better off feeling nothing, and it seems to me that she has to hit the bottom of that spiral herself before she comes climbing out.

I'll try to limit the damage to people on the Barge next time. At least they can come back.

Yeah, that's great, but here's the thing: maybe those guys were assholes, maybe they weren't, we'll never know. It's awesome that she needs to get in touch with her inner Pickle or whatever, but it's not awesome that other people are paying the price for that.

We don't get to decide who deserves what. Neither does she.

And if I'd been awake, I wouldn't have let her off the Barge.

But I wasn't awake, and I can't change what happened, and I can't make her feel guilty about it. But my bet is she'll feel it eventually. Sooner or later.

[Dean is never, ever going to like it, and no one can make him.]

Did you find out who it was that let her off? That blood is on their hands.

I don't know. And how would they know how dangerous it would be?

It doesn't matter. You can't just go taking responsibility for people and then dropping the goddamn ball.

Not you, you. Them you. Whoever.

Maybe no one thought to stop her.
