Video : second verse, same as the first

[hunter_returns]

[The feed comes on to a slightly wan looking Sam, back at the hospital again. But he’s in better shape than he was the first time he’d arrived in Heropa. No trying to play through the pain, no trying to tell everyone he was just fine. Nope. This time he’d sucked it up and stayed in the freaking hospital until the nanites.. or whatever they were, did their job and put his busted ass back together again.]

Hey, guess I’m back for round two, or something like that. I’m not even sure how long I’ve been gone. Dean? If you’re still here, I need to talk to you. Soon.

[Sam braces his hand on the side of the bed, trying to lever himself into a more comfortable position and instead, the metal crumples beneath his hand. He winces and surveys the damage.] Damnit. Just when I was getting used to the whole Frozen thing.

Super strength! I always liked that one, but what you got the first time was better. There's just something about psychic powers...

[ He is not talking about Sam's frozen abilities. Not at all. ]

[hunter_returns]

[Sam doesn't care for the reminder of being possessed either. But at least he's his own air conditioner? He pulls a sour face at Lucifer.] I didn't like them the first time around. Glad to be rid of them. [Because with premonitions also came killer headaches.]

[angelfire]

Well, they did come with a price. It was hard to keep all that demon blood down, hm, Sammy? And now, I suppose, it's a little late for a relapse.

How are you feeling there? Shiny and new yet? Because you look awful.

[hunter_returns]

I'm fine. [And even if he wasn't, Sam knows how to play through the pain. He's going to be just fine. Mention of the blood just gets a scowl.]

And whatever power I got from the demon blood it's either dormant or burned away.

Takes some getting used to
Probably moreso if you couldn't already stop cars I guess

[God knows he's accidentally broken lots of stuff around his own house here]

[hunter_returns]

Not unless I wanted to get crushed by them.
Guess you wound up with the same problem? I have to be careful with everything, I feel like it's all made out of glass. One wrong move and smash.

Been holding back my own strength for years
Just a little more to throw around now
I'd say you get used to it but
Still break things sometimes

[dontforgetpie]

Which room are you in? [Dean's looking a little worse for wear himself, and even though he's excited to see Sam again, it's been a rough week without him. He's pretty damn sick of the Porter giving him his brother and taking him away over and over, but at least Sam seems like he remembers being here this time..]

[hunter_returns]

[At least he's in one piece and hasn't done anything completely insane while he's been gone. However long that's been. He'll scroll through the network later and see what he might have missed.] I'm in 310, set for discharge in a couple hours.

[dontforgetpie]

I'll be right there. [He disconnects and arrives in the room seconds later. The sound of beating wings barely having died down before he's stepping closer to Sam and pulling him into a tight hug.] What happened? You were gone.

[Dean pulls back as he asks the question, keeping his hands on Sam's shoulders.]

[heavyhitter]

[heavyhitter]

Welcome back, Sam. Dean will be delighted to see you again.

[Not even a little sincere.]

[hunter_returns]

Wish I could say I was happy to be back.

Why, is here really that bad for you?

[flowerette]

[ When Sam had disappeared, Raina was at a complete loss. Lucifer had become a gnawing concern in both hers and Chilton's lives -- so to see the man back, Raina doesn't even hesitate. ]

I need to see you at your earliest convenience.

voice; private

[hunter_returns]

Okay. I'm heading home soon.

What happened? What did we miss?

voice; private

[flowerette]

So much, Sam. So much has happened in the past few days.

[ An agonized pause. ]

I'm being blackmailed into signing a contract with Lucifer. I haven't yet signed, I have time to consider and...with any luck find a way out. But I would much rather tell you the details in person.

[resipiscent]

Did you get wrecked again? [He's not sure he's actually talked to Sam, but he remembers coming to heal him the first time, so...]

[hunter_returns]

Hey, whatever happened I got brought back here in about the same shape. But they were ready for it, got me stabalized a lot faster.

[resipiscent]

Good. You need another round of healing, let us all know.

permatext; comm tag is "Tadashi"

[tadeadshi]

[Well. Dean and Bela and ...Lucifer? Already got to him. So what else is there to say really?]

Welcome back, Sam.

[hunter_returns]

Hey. Thanks.

I'd ask if Dean was staying out of trouble, but I think I already know the answer.

[tadeadshi]

Yeah there isn't much that can help that. Guess they already filled you in on how long you were gone.

Sounds like home was a little better than last time?
