the inevitable SPN 3x07 post-ep snippet

[vaznetti]

It kind of amused me that all the John Winchester fans thought exactly the same thing about Bela's informant, the one who told Sam and Dean to stay the hell away from Gordon.. And then phantomas posted this macro. There are many other things I should be writing right now, but this is what came out. Full of spoilers for SPN 3x07, obviously, and lacking in sense or a beta.

Bargaining (post-ep snippet for "Fresh Blood")
by vaznetti

"This is an impossible situation." Bela felt that her tone conveyed the precise mix of reason and forcefulness necessary under the circumstances. "You will have to leave."

The man -- the ghost -- kept his arms folded across his chest. "I'm not going anywhere."

"But I've dismissed you," she said. "You are supposed to be gone now."

"I've already crawled out of Hell, darlin'. Do you really think you can get rid of me?"

"This is my car," she said. "I spend a great deal of time in my car, due to the nature of my business. I simply cannot have you taking up space and--" and smelling the place up, was what she wanted to add, but it sounded so undignified and in fact the ghost, being a ghost, did not smell at all. Although he looked like he ought to. "--and interfering in my affairs!"

"You're a thief," the ghost said. "I don't care about that. But we are going to have to have some rules when it comes to my boys."

"And I suppose your first directive will be to stay well away from them? I'm sure you haven't noticed, but they're big boys now. They can take care of themselves."

"The first thing is for you to find out the value of a single human life, in a demonic contract. I need something worth exactly that."

"Really," she said. "And why would I do that?"

The ghost smiled, and all at once Bela saw where Dean got his charm. Goodness. "Oh, don't worry. I'll make it worth your while."

"Well," she said, but it was impossible to keep from smiling back. "I'm not sure about that. I'm worth a very great deal, you know."

end.


Bela is a great deal of fun to write; I'll have to do that some more.

Yes! I'm sure the conversation went very much like this.

Although I do believe it might have been Jim, as well.

Really, I think there are any number of people it might have been. We should all write one!

I just really, really like the idea of John haunting Bela. Bickering!

HEHEHEHEH.

You are awesome for writing this. I could picture it SO clearly. :D

*subliminal message of the day: you will write more Bela!fic*

[vaznetti]

thanks! Is it skanky that I think she'd flirt with John pretty much nonstop? Except that when Dean is around, she'd flirt with him instead, just to see what John does?

I will write more Belafic! she is fun to write!

Bwah. Bela would totally do it. She seems to have such a practical view of the supernatural. Flirting with a ghost would be a diversion. And yes, she'd try to bait John by flirting with Dean.
