Hello everyone. My name is Julius Visconti.

Allow me to take this opportunity to formally thank all of you. I was held in prison for some time along with some others. I understand how much trouble you went through just to aid us.

There isn't a lot I can do to repay the favor. For that I apologize.

[He bows his head down in apology.]

I promise that I'll work even harder from now. [It's the least he can do around here. Julius isn't going to waste his time.]

On another note, I'd like to ask you all a question.

What do you know about magic? I've been intrigued by its concept and origins for some time, yet I hardly know anything. Magic is a difficult thing for me to grasp. I'd appreciate it if we could sit down and discuss it in detail.

[Neat. Must be nice to be able to hide away from your enemies.]

It is. Regarding the spells you have for protection...is it intended to be used on one person or multiple people?

I'm just trying to keep these options in mind when I think about magic.

[As if he knows how it works.]

[ crazy nifty, it's true. the bad guys always find a way around that little trick though. to Dean's endless, endless regret. ]

Well, you got personal protection spells — pentagrams, old language spells that you can carry on you or wear — depends on your aesthetic I guess. Then you have the more, ah ... contextual protection stuff. Hex bags can protect you and a bunch a people around you, depends on how potent you make it.

[ it's ok Julius. Dean has an idea how it all works.

can be kind of a crapshoot sometimes with him though... ]

[Poor Dean. He has too many regrets.]

You are quite knowledgeable. When you were back home did you work closely with magic? I can't imagine another reason why you'd have this much intel on it.

[This entire conversation is just making Julius realize that he and Dean live literally worlds apart. It astounds him each time.]

[ Dean sniffs lightly. he's totally not bragging. ]

Yeah, I picked up a couple a things throughout my long career as a hunter. All that supernatural crap's kinda my area of expertise.

Somehow, I woulda thought you'd be more familiar with that stuff, what with eating gods and all that fun stuff.

It's more scientific in nature than magical. [They call them Gods but in reality it's just a hunk of cells. Their entire body is comprised of a substance that's dangerous for humans, that's all it really is. Not magical or anything like that.]

You're a hunter? I can't say I'm overly surprised to learn this about you.

All the facts add up well.

Yeah, well. In some parts of the universe, people'll tell you science and magic are like two sides of the same coin.

Personally? Not my problem. If it works, it works, and I'm gonna use it.

[ Dean puffs his chest up a little. call it a sort of low key preening. ]

Yeah, I look the part, don't I? It's the muscles, huh? Or was it my, ah ... fighterly swagger?

That is a good point. I can't honestly say that science and magic are unrelated to each other.

[Wow, just use what you can huh? Julius nods in response. Though he seems to be thinking on Dean's words a bit more.]

I doubt it's either of those things.

[He silently questions his life decisions. This is the first time he's heard someone use the term swagger in that kind of context.]

[ his mouth falls open in slight dismay.

truth be told, he isn't that great at reading Julius's serious business face.

he clutches his chest in mock pain. ]

Ow, that burn.

Were you serious earlier?

I apologize if I misunderstood your intentions. [Julius looks down at himself he's pretty terrible at handling normal interactions. He needs to get used to speaking to people casually instead of treating it like it's order and business.]

Hmm, which part exactly?

[ hard to tell with Dean. half the time, he doesn't take/mean anything seriously.

he leans forward, his tone conspiratorial: ]

Important life lesson number one, kid: never apologize for inflicting a good burn on someone. What are you even apologizing for?

[ he leans back, joining his hands behind his neck. ]

Relax. Chill.

I'll do as you say.

[He really does need to chill out. Julius can agree with that much. His brows ruffle together in confusion. Wow, he's so sure this is the first time someone has told him to relax. It's very strange.]

What sort of activities do you partake in for relaxation?

[ if he hangs out with Dean, he'll get used to it very quickly.

...he might actually pick up a few crappy habits if he hangs out with Dean. enjoy! ]

Activities?. No. No. See, the point of relaxation, is not partaking in any activities.

[ a beat. ]

Least not any activities I can talk to you about.

[ understand that how you will, Julius. ]

[Oh doing nothing...it's harder than it sounds. He frowns. There's always something that needs to be done. Julius is such a busy person]

I see.

[No he doesn't see it .]

I don't know what it is you do that makes this matter so secretive. Although I suppose that this is entirely my issue alone. I'll find some more appropriate ways to relax.

[ Dean arches both eyebrows at Julius' tone and lets out a low laugh.

he's just so amused at how stuffy Julius is. ]

Now, now. No need to get all huffy.

[ he narrows an eye at Julius, in mock speculation. ]

You really wanna know? 'Cause it's a big deal.

Tell me what it is. Apparently my curiosity has gotten the better of me in this case.

[You can't just say "I can't tell you" and not expect him to wonder!]

If it's a big deal then is it appropriate for us to be discussing this over the network?

[ Dean is just quietly laughing his ass off over the network. very quietly, but damn, this is the most fun he's had in weeks. ]

Trust me, anyone listening to this conversation over the network bailed a while ago already.

[ he stifles his chuckles, clears his throat and says, very seriously: ]

Do you have any idea what pornography is?

No, I'm afraid not.

[Julius is still inquiring about it in a serious manner. Dude has no idea. Pornography isn't a term he's familiar with either. He folds his arms and thinks about it as if it were a life or death topic.]

I don't know what pornography is.

[He said it.]

......

You don't know what pornography is.

[ this information is most distressing. ]

Oh my god. I weep for your libido, kid.

I'm not following what you're saying.

[He says so looking baffled and extremely dissatisfied.]

This is the first time I've heard of it. Pornography sounds similar to photography.

[Could the two be related???]
