Hey. My name is Sam and I've been here for about a month now. [ Give or take a few days. ]

So, it's been requested of me and my brother Dean to help out a little where we can, using the skills we have. [ Not a problem there. But here's where it gets a little dicey ... it's no secret that he and Dean hunt the supernatural, but it doesn't exactly bring him great comfort having to publicly out themselves, especially given some of their experiences with the FBI in the past. Thing is, if it gains them a little credit to their offer, Sam sees no other choice in this matter. And hey, maybe they won't have to go undercover as agents and health inspectors anymore.

Here goes: ] I'd say we're both pretty experienced in combat and defence. Back home we're hunters so dealing with spirits like this is kind of our M.O. Haven't really figured out what manner of spirit this is yet, but Rastus thought it wouldn't do anyone harm to learn a little defence training, so we're opening that up to anyone interested in maybe getting a few tips from us.

Right now we wanna get a headcount for interest. More details to follow. If anyone's got any questions, we're here to answer them too.

Oh and one more thing: my brother and I are gonna be out of town for a few days if anyone's looking to see us in person. If all goes well, we'll be back soon.

Thanks for your time.

dude i thought we agreed on CAMP WINCHESTER

( when did they agree to this, dean. when.

regardless, the next messages are directed at the network at large: )

anyway no we're not ghostbusters but u can call us if somethin goes bump in the night

nobody should want to be a hunter but if u wanna learn we'll teach

( attached below is something dean scribbled up real fast on his tablet, which will eventually make its way around town in the form of poorly written flyers, like so: )

@missprincessmary, audio

[withsadness]

Will there be s'mores? Camps are supposed to have those!

[In which case, count her in.]

[helled]

I don't think we did, Dean.

[ It makes him feel a little uncomfortable, the formality of it all, but he kind of likes the poster.

You know, secretly. ]

[moderatelymaladjusted]

Alright, Ledzeppelin. Are there's any guns in that arsenal and would you know how to teach someone how to use it? When you mention lore, is it information about this place?

Why plaid?

Why ghost hunting? There are no ghosts here.

i have plaid and i can kill monsters but i dont know a lot yet

can i join the camp please and learn to be a winchester hunter

@jupitersgrace

[notthatjason]

Camp Winchester?

[Well, I mean, now he HAS to go right? Too bad this is text, you can't see him smiling to himself and shaking his head.]

The things we're dealing with here seem a little different from ghosts. Can you really teach anyone warding? I always figured that was a different kind of magical skill set.

@cuttingedge

[knifecollecting]

I'm not wearing plaid for either of you.

[Jo, you probably have plaid on right now. Don't pretend.]

text @ Soldier

[worthallthis]

There is already defense training twice a week. Multiple teachers. Can combine with those if you have different things to teach

[Soldat isn't sure if they're confused that these two people didn't see the notices on the bulletin about Javert's classes, offended that these two people did see them and thought they weren't enough, or curious if these two people did see them and thought they weren't enough because they have something different to teach.]

[helled]

Hey Soldier, sorry about that. We're not trying to step on anyone's toes or anything.

We just figured we'd put it out there that there are a couple of things we could probably share with whoever was interested. In my experience, there aren't a hell of a lot of hunters out there in numbers and less with the kind of knowledge we've picked up over the years.

[ And the Winchester brothers have a ... (completely one-sided) complicated relationship where Rastus is concerned, where they're grateful for the items procured to them, but still unsure whether Rastus might mean them harm in the long-run. Kind of run of the mill Winchester stuff, really. ]

My brother ... came up with the name.

( text | un: warlock )

[necromantiae]

spirits the only thing you hunt? seems like a pretty small market.

( aka do you hunt other supernatural things, boys? )

[cained]

it'd be easier to ask us what we don't hunt and use your imagination
but warlocks ain't off the table if that's what u really mean

( at least, assuming the username is as on the nose as dean thinks it is. )

@lonk; voice

[sublimebeast]

What kinda weapons do you guys use?

audio;

[helled]

Hi — uh, Lonk.

Depends on what we're hunting. Blades and guns mostly, though; they seem to be pretty handy in a majority of situations.

[freetobe]

I'm assuming you'll leave out wardings regarding certain celestial beings. For hopefully obvious reasons.

ahahaha mega private

[helled]

Of course, Cas

What do you take us for?

[cained]

( is this the first time they've really spoken more than, like, five words in passing since the church? probably. but it's not weird! it's only weird if they make it weird. )

cmon cas dont go gettin ur feathers in a fluster
we ain't gonna spill the holy beans

@Grandmaster

[paletteswap]

Out of town?

Which direction are you headed? We should be doing something to the map so that we do not retread the same steps again and again.

[helled]

Heading down south

You been down that way recently?

@violet_raven; audio

[featherknives]

Watch out for the green-eyed ones. They cause hallucinations.

Also, if you DO run into them, call me. I want to turn them into my personal pincushion for all the shit they did.

[Yes, she is still holding a grudge. They made a shishkebab out of her a few months ago and she's still angry.]

audio;

[helled]

Hallucinations? [ Luckily, or maybe unluckily, Sam happens to have a little bit of experience where hallucinations are concerned. But all the same — ] Got it. Thanks for the info.

You got a history with these things?

[ Grudges? Oh, yeah. Winchesters have got 'em too. ]

@darkness

[evulsed]

We'll see how great these lofty skills of yours are against the spirits here soon enough, then. I have a feeling they aren't what you're used to.

You haven't done that well so far, after all.

[ neener neener dean winchester ]

[helled]

They might not be what we're used to, but we're pretty good at improvising.

You got some information you could share about the spirits here?

[ Not going to take the bait on that last bit, but Sam's gotta wonder whether the message was meant for his brother, maybe. ]

[cained]

( hey vanitas guess what 凸(｀⌒´メ)凸 )

is that a challenge or a threat

@javert

[policier]

You best pay heed to Vanitas' warning. These creatures are much more difficult to kill than you may think. They are like people, in a way: each of them have their own strengths and weak points.

[cained]

( javert no how could u agree with his mortal enemy )

we've killed gods pal
if they can die we can kill them

@jupitersgrace

[notthatjason]

I think it's great to offer your skills and knowledge. I think we've done as well as we have around here because people have been willing to help each other.

But, I did want to point out, we already have defense classes going on. Javert, Soldat, and I have been helping teach anyone interested how to engage in different kinds of combat. I mostly teach sword skills myself. It was my way of helping.

I'm not trying to talk you out of it, obviously, I just thought it might be a better idea to combine forces?

[cained]

no offense but we're good
this town is plenty big enough for the both of us
