[starfleet] In which Dean is in a completely unexpected situation.

For the record, Dean wanted it to be known that he was really bad at this.

Even when he was human, his social skills were mediocre at best, but now that he was an angel, they'd really gone down the tubes. Which was somewhat daunting when knowing that he had the potential of meeting a sixteen year-old kid who wasn't even in his own time period. He wasn't even sure how this had happened. All he knew was that genetically speaking, he was this kid's father, whether it was through accident, intention or stupidity, and he wanted to be there. In some way. Some how.

He didn't know how, but he had a feeling that there was something there.

Besides, he couldn't have dragged himself out of this even if he wanted to at this point. He'd already dug himself in deep enough that he was attached at this point, he hadn't even met the kid yet. The Irrational Protect Reflex had already kicked in, and that meant Dean was already too far gone to be fixed.

Now he just had to wait for the kid to come to him.

That was starting to be a little harder than he thought.

"Everything. Which ammounts to nothing." He shruggs a little. "I want to stay with the Enterprise. Their my family. My unit. I have no one else but you. I hardly even know the other X5s." And that limits him and he knows it.

"So then the next step would be to find the job that keeps you there."

It would be easier on another ship. Most of the Enterprise crew wont want to leave, so there's aren't a lot in the way of opening."

"I'm sure Captain Kirk and Dr. McCoy would be able to find something for you."

"Oh, they would. But. . .I don't want to be pandered to, you know?"

"I can understand that."

"I still haven't figured out why they decided to keep me in the first place."

"Probably because they like you. Kinda weird, I know, but I can see why."

She watched as Dean stiffened and turned to face her. "What do you want?"

"I need you to take care of something. I didn't want to interrupt, but it's a little time sensitive, and she is your responsibility." She slipped her hands in her pockets and made her way closer. "She also won't deal with me anymore. And my vessel doesn't appreciate getting punched in the face all the time."

Dean rolled his eyes, before turning back to Alec. "This shouldn't take long, if you don't mind?"

He eyed the new woman suspiciously. "Okay. New rule. I want no less than thirty feet of lead time. 'Kay?"

She chuckled. "Sorry." She then raised her hand in a wave. "I'm Sera. Short for Seraphiel, but Sera is easier to say. I work for him. Sometimes."

"Sera does not have to stay if you don't want her to. I know she can be rather annoying."

"Ouch, big brother. That's rather uncalled for." She shrugged slightly, before turning back to Alec. "But I was thinking milkshakes."

One eyebrow climbed. Contrary to popular belief he could do that even before he met Spock. "How about I just make her work for it?" He did like the idea of milk shakes though.

She smiled. "I'm good at earning my keep."

Michael glanced between the two of them for a moment, before sighing. "Fine. I expect him in one piece when I get back." And in the blink of an eye, he was gone.

Seraphiel waited for him to disappear, before turning back to Alec. "So. Milkshake?"

"I'm thinkong on it." He considers her. "Was that a good guess or have you guys been watching me in some weird way?" Dispite what Dean may think Alwc wasn't an easy sell. But it was easier with Dean he had science and the scent of uniot on his side.

"We watch everyone," she replied with a shrug, pushing herself on the ledge of the roof and crossing her legs under her. "It's part of our job. To watch over and take care of the beings of this world, and in some occasions to guide them to their proper path."

"Take care of, how exactly?"

"Depends on the being. Most of the time it's just trying to avoid some kind of Armageddon. As I'm sure you noticed, Armageddon has many varieties."

"Only kinda? I'm heard about one or two. Jim stopped one I guess, if you call a crazy dude with a black hole maker an armageddon." A pause. "All right. Milk shakes."

She grinned. "Awesome."

Then she paused. "We can go the old fashioned way, or we can take the angel express. I know a place with a really good milkshake, but it's in this little town in upstate New York. Which this is not."

This makes him nervous. Normally he's all about throughing himself into adventure but. . . "Can I see you wings?" Sometimes the best thing to do is to just trust the animal instinct.

"Sure," she said with a nod, before closing her eyes and concentrating.

Hers response was different from Dean's. While archangels were all thunder and lighting, meant to impress and intimidate rather than comfort, seraphim were built a little differently. There was still noise, like wind chimes on the wind, and her feathers were rounded, the light bouncing off them like the light hitting the dusty gold pipes of an organ.

He reaches out, because clearly looking requires hands and eyes as well as nose. But he stops himself. He doesn't like people touching him without permission. So he has to get that permssion befor touching someone else. "May I?"

"Go for it," she nodded, opening her eyes a bit to watch him. She was always curious as to how different people reacted to her wings. A lot of her charges had a bit of child-like nature to them, but there always seemed to be a bit more amazement than when they were looking at the rest of the world.

He reached out with careful fingers, this time knowing not to expecting the physical contact of his fingers against a surface. But still the feel was softer that Dean's. More like a warm blanked than the heat of a fire. He shivered. "You're different than Dean." He had sort of expected the basics to be the same, but they weren't.

"Seraphim are different from archangels. Archangels are meant to be warriors, to protect the prophets and convey God's wrath upon the people, to fight His wars. Seraphim, which is what I am, are meant for worship. To serve God through prayer and song."

He rolls that over in his head. "So as a whole you're. . ."" he paused thinking of the right words. "More like a governing body than just an army."
