[ John is in what looks to be a shop that's been abandoned for quite a while. There's a few bits of furniture with sheets over it. There's dust and cobwebs and the feed shakes as he accidentally bumps the table as he's trying to set it down. Once it is set up, he scrubs a hand over his face, through the bit of scruff at his jaw, and then around to rub at the back of his neck. He looks tired.

He istired but oddly energetic at the same time. ]

Right, not sure if any of you have been having trouble sleeping as well but I figured I may as well do this since I found the space for it. It's in Willful Machine, warding on the door glows amber. Easy to spot. I can still drop a location here in case.

I might be able to help with easing some of the bloodlust that seems to be cropping up. I've got incense and I'm working on some tinctures from those roses left behind for us. Smoke wands, too. Meditation seems to help. Yoga as well. I'm decent at both, don't mind showing anyone if they need it.

[ He reaches out for an old book covered with a dust cover and blows off the lingering film clinging before peeling that off. Any well-versed in the occult or magic might recognize the original grimoire of King Solomon. He's about to reach out with his free hand and turn off the feed when a thought suddenly occurs to him. ]

Oh, and I'd hate to go making such a terribly broad offer like I did back in the old town so to clarify: don't bother stopping in Maul. I wouldn't want the riff-raff to go showing up.

[ This is the smile on his face as he shuts the feed off. There's a location for the shop embedded in the message. ]

Unless that's a party drug I'm probably gonna pass. And if this is a MLM pitch I think you need some work.

If you wanna put glitter in that glue you're sniffing that's fine, but it's not fair to get your whackadoo all over everyone else. Meditation and yoga mats aren't gonna save a life, I hate to break it to you.

[ Wow, the Sams just aren't introducing themselves on their best foot ever with Constantine, are they? The only one on his good side at the moment is the kid. ]

You got something in the way of you reading? Never said it would save someone's life. Said it might help ease some things. You don't want to join in, that's fine. Big head like that you'd probably go right into the door anyway.

[Guess it just happens that Sam Winchester, in all his many iterations, just has Some Issue with British magic users. It's not personal. Probably.]

Eh. Honestly? I lost interest about half way through. Something about your accent I think.. smoke wands.. yoga.. Harry Potter, blah blabla blah

[oldhound]

[ Yeah, he's used to that sort of reception outside of his old circle he ran with back in the day. John rolls his eyes. ]

Right, good. So how's about you take your attention issues and whatever else you've got crammed up your arse and piss off. Let the people who actually want to try something instead of mouthing off try and work all this out?

Unless you're not done. Must be hard trying to get those cogs actually working, maybe you got some ocean water in your ears.

I can wait.

Wait for what? For anything you just said to make sense? You're gonna be here a while, bud.

[oldhound]

Cause you think I'm going to just be here waiting all day with you? Sorry to disappoint.

[ And that'd be him ending the video to Sam. ]
