A time to vent, a time to breathe [Open]

Kate was back up from the city, her knuckles now abraded and bloodied. Her hands were sore and likewise so from the stick she found. The clockhouse was there, but they were gone. It was over. Still feel like crap, but going down there helped in a big way. Now she was just walking around, some of the earlier weight lifted a little.

Or at least it was easier to hide any vulnerabilities now.

"Avenger, huh?" Dean says thoughtfully. "Still, that's pretty damn up there, isn't it? The Avengers kick ass."

He grins. "Definitely more kick ass than my title."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Thanks, well we sometimes work with the older Avengers on the bigger events."

Kate smiled brighter, and added, "We do, and what's your title?"

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"Yeah? Bigger events like end of the world, events?"

Dean shrugs. "They just called us Hunters, back home. Boring, but the majority of us are too busy to come up with something better."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Exactly, and Hunters? What are you hunting exactly?"

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"Demons, vampires, ghosts, other things like that. And witches. I hate witches."

Kate nodded at that, "Have some back home too. We just don't run into them that often.".

Though on hearing that she worried a little that Billy and Tommy might run into trouble if they ever popped. Not that she would mention their odd background.

"You've got witches? Ew, nasty. Unsanitary." Dean shudders.

Dean is the king of odd backgrounds, so he'd probably be able to empathize, really.

"Well there's the Scarlet Witch, she can shape reality with her magic. She was one of the Avengers and two of my teammate friends are her sons. I think yours are different."

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, sounds that way. You guys are superheroes. Witches where I come from are nasty pieces of work."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"That's us. That"s the case with some witches and demons back home too, but we don't run into them that often."

"This whole different universe thing is givin' me a headache." Dean sighs.

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Tell me about it. I can raise you one. Try alternate versions of your own world, complete with similar but not the same people."

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"Oh, man. That's too much." Dean replies. "So you know people here but they don't know you?"

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Pretty much. Was really confusing for both of us in one case because the version in my world is an ass who helped get a law passed that started a lot of trouble."

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"What kinda law?"

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Superhuman Registration Act. If you wanted to be a superhero you were supposed to register with the government."

[pie-bitches.livejournal.com]

"Nice. Shows how much the government appreciates the heroes, huh?" Dean looks vaguely irritated at that.

Kate nodded, "They did, until some... well they were a bunch of flashy wannabes really with a reality show? But they had staged some fight with villains, only they were fighting for real and one of the villains blew up. Battle was right by a school that was in session at the time. Can guess what happened next."
