          castiel tilts his head, looking at the man as though staring into his soul, as though he’s analysing it. there’s something off about him, something inhuman, but something he can’t quite pinpoint. he’s never seen anything like him before. he doesn’t know what to think. as an angel, he should know about almost everything in creation. “ i don’t have many answers to offer, ” he states, voice low and eyes narrowed. “ i assume you didn’t come here intentionally. nobody i’ve met so far has. we were all brought here by someone, and while i have my assumptions, my friend and i are searching for evidence to back up my theories. ” he paused, staring at the man further. it was going to frustrate him if he didn’t ask. “ you aren’t human, yet you’re nothing i recognise. what are you? ”

  intentionally ? for god’s sake , niklaus could imagine no scenario where he would’ve wanted all of this to happen intentionally . witches abusing their magic and chanting in a foreign tongue was a part of his normality , but even he had to admit that everyone he had come by thus far on this land served no purpose to him . if a witch really had been trying to get himself to go mad enough to drive a white oak stake into his own heart , they would have forsaken him away with his now deceased father . if this so called self proclaimed fbi agent was scrambling for answers , the original figured it was worth hearing him out . there would be no use in killing him , after all . ashy brows raise in alarm as an unexpected inquiry is directed his way . for the past week , he had been compelling and feeding his way through an entire population that seemed to be made up of nothing but humans . and going off of whatever suspicion this man held in his eyes , niklaus could sense a whiff of supernatural from the other . yet , even he was unable to make the connection . a hunter , perhaps ? “ i’m a thousand years old , agent swift , and time is very precious to me . if i have to spend another day without answers , i might have to rip your head off . “ he stated , impatience ridding of any chance for him to make a good first impression . “ come on now , fess up . what are these theories you speak of ? “

          sticking to the shadows and trailing klaus in silence was maybe not the best idea, in hindsight, but caroline had to make sure it was him. the last thing she remembered from home was finding out that he was dead, something that would’ve been a relief had tyler not died along with him. and she could recall the fear that her own death was imminent, that the salvatores would fall alongside her, but that had never seemed to happen. perhaps being brought here had somehow saved her, or perhaps… perhaps klaus wasn’t dead after all. and the evidence was walking right in front of her. the threat snapped her out of her thoughts, heart racing with a spark of fear. yes, that was him. there was no doubt about it. “ you’re supposed to be dead, ” came her response as she finally stepped into the light and allowed herself to be seen, no falter in her step. maybe she was poking the bear, but a bear that seemed to be fond of her, for some reason. she couldn’t completely trust that it wouldn’t bite, but it was less likely to hurt her than it would most. “ how’re you here? is tyler–? ”

    his steps slow down , illuminated by the light that now replaced the usual veil of darkness that had once surrounded him . in a sea of unfamiliar faces , hers was like a breath of fresh air . niklaus suspected this was yet another hallucination , preventing him from seeing the truth — but he could hear her pulse . it was beating rapidly and acted in unison with the string of questions that she seemed to want answered . that’s all it seemed to be these days : unanswered questions . “ caroline . “ his arms almost hung lifelessly by his sides , the built up tension now diminishing from his previously offensive stance . over the past week , bits and pieces of memories that were once forgotten had continued to resurface . the original began to recall his mother and her failed quest to rid of all vampires , to rid of him .    he was the most powerful being in the world . their rag tag group of arrogant vampires nor his self righteous parents would ever be the reason for his demise . it seemed as if having caroline appear in front of him was only speeding up the process of recollecting some of the information he had once lost . “ i am alive , am i not ? therefore my biggest disappointment of a hybrid is as well . “ he completely glosses over her question of how he had cheated death because it most likely involved an answer she wouldn’t want to hear . “ now , explain to me how your witchy little friend dabbled in her magic to sever the link between my siblings and i ... and i magically ended up on this god forsaken planet . what did she do , caroline ? “ there were no hybrids . his siblings were nowhere to be found . no elena therefore no human blood bag to bleed dry . she was his only chance at an explanation .

                THE BRUNETTE’S BROWS FURROWED slightly, this man sounded like a late night infomercial  —  actually no, he sounded a lot like those old recordings of j.a.r.v.i.s she’d found ages ago.  “ well considering that the man died about a millennia ago…i don’t think you’d be able to interact much, unless of course you performed a séance. “ and she’d leave it at that, this place had brought back someone for her, tony had been dead for more than a solid decade in her world and yet she’d been able to see him again, but she still couldn’t wrap her mind around the why of that situation, nor did she care to  — for the moment anyway. she was too busy enjoying time with him, loving that for once in her life her family felt complete because with pepper here, it felt like the universe had finally decided to give them the second chance everyone had gotten when tony brought them back. 

it took her a moment to decide to answer his question, but a light chuckle did slip past her lips before she spoke. “ don’t get it twisted, insufferable know it all, is my default setting. “ she stated with a roll of her shoulders. “ my FAMILY is here, both of my parents who believe it or not have agreed that keeping me on a leash isn’t PRODUCTIVE. “ granted she could find ways to sneak out of course, but morgan did appreciate being able to focus her energy on other things, especially when it came to getting stark industries off the ground now that? that was something she was utterly passionate about. “ oh i don’t know… maybe it’s the fact that we’re on an ALIEN planet? “ her voice was once again laced with her signature sarcasm. but she could appreciate the genuine curiosity even if she couldn’t quite get a read on the man before her. “ it’s what i do, i tinker, i build... and innovate my way out of things. “ and occasionally she used her genius to change the world, but that fact was best left unsaid, for now. nodding as he gave her his name, she did consider omitting hers simply to be difficult but once his hand was outstretched she figured, that adding ‘ rude ‘ to her charming set of qualities wasn’t the way to go. so she dropped her colored pencil on her lap and took his outstretched hand with her own, giving it a firm shake and maintaining eye contact with him, before she took it back. “ morgan, morgan stark. “  she finished an obvious note of pride in her voice as she said her last name.  “ i’d WELCOME you and all but from what i can sense a ‘ welcoming party ‘ is the LAST thing you’re interested in correct? “ that much had been clear seconds into their conversation, but she’d let him admit that out loud instead of being clear about it for herself. 

   " contacting the dead ? that would be witchcraft . quite certainly not my area of expertise , love . “ perhaps the mere concept of vampirism was a bit too farfetched for her to properly grasp . he knew a human when he saw one . if she wasn’t , she would’ve surely caught on to the irony of it all — niklaus had been dead for over a thousand years .

    calloused fingers intertwined behind his back , following her every movement with hues darker than the abyss . “ ah ,  i’ve murdered both of my parents before they could murder me so forgive me if i find your family matters rather ... trivial . “ a devilish smile flickers across his features , hoping that his brutal honesty did nothing but tie a few knots in her stomach . she didn’t seem prone to a little intimidation but surely violence was a sensitive topic to many . for a man who profited off of his immortality and the vast world of the supernatural , for some reason , he was finding it extremely hard to believe they were on some extraterrestrial planet . everyone he had come across by far seemed so painfully normal and oblivious . perhaps this was his curse bestowed upon him by a higher power . to be stuck in a land of brunettes with bad attitudes and faulty leads . “ very well , i shall remember that name . morgan . “ niklaus repeated the name to himself , unable to find any trace of her in between the lines of his intricate history . his own hand retreated as hers did , trying to put his finger on what it was that made it seem like she knew more than she was letting on . “ on the contrary , do you happen to be a part of a welcoming committee of sorts ? i’d like to meet them , especially if they are even as half as pleasant as you . “ he found himself mirroring her sarcasm as she seemed to respond to it well . perhaps she was an indication that there were others who had answers that were better than all of this being them stuck on an ‘ alien planet ‘ .

    witches . it had to be the witches . niklaus could find no other explanation as to why he was experiencing scattered memories along with untimely hallucinations . this world was but a semblance of what was and truth be told , he was aching to go back home — to be given answers as to what all of this meant for the fate of his family . it seemed as if his supernatural abilities as the original hybrid had remained intact . however , despite his superhuman speed , he could no longer outrun the looming figures of darkness that pursued him . he could hear voices , almost as if they were taunting him . he had always been a mad man but to feel so powerless was driving him over the edge . niklaus had disappeared with the wind , steps slowing only when he reached the side of what seemed to be an empty building . this land was dry , almost humid and as his senses were heightened , so were his emotions . in a violent rage , he picked up on the first sign of life trailing him , mistaking them for the reason for these demons that chased him . “ you have two seconds to convince me not to end you right here , right now . “ he warned , taking the initiative to advance towards them .

                THE BRUNETTE’S BROWS FURROWED slightly, does now studying the man who’d approached her  — doing her best to asses danger, not that she was ever any good at that. had she been then plenty of what she got into at home would have been avoided, but it never hurt to try and determine just when she’d need to ‘ yell out for dad ‘ especially on a planet that seemed hell bent on adding more of the weird and unusual. “ yes, exactly like that… congrats on ENTERING the modern era ben franklin. “ she finished, voice dripping with sarcasm as her chin tilted upwards. “ and you thought you’d ASK me because? “ she questioned with a roll of her shoulders. “ must have missed the moment when i put up a sign that said i was an ‘ information booth ‘ “ and on the sarcasm went, a personality trait that had already gotten her in trouble on this planet. 

“ but if it helps, we seem to be running low on our ‘ flirtatious ‘ blonde supply for the moment, could i interest you in any of the variants instead? ‘ annoying ‘ and  ‘ petulant ‘ are what’s on the menu. “  her thoughts lingered on two particular people,  as sigh slipped her lips, as a little guilt seeped in as she thought of her parents and what she would be feeling if she didn’t have them with her. “ look… sir, if they didn’t come with you, chances are they’re not here. “ her mom had shown up about a month later after all. “ but it doesn’t mean they WON’T be, eventually. “ because clearly if they targeted one member of a family then they’d bring them all? it’s what had happened with her anyway. “ just wait it out. “ she finished, thinking the conversation would be over and dark eyes focused on her sketch once more, but then he spoke again. “ i wouldn’t particularly label this art. “ she began to explain, but paused as she gathered her thoughts. “ it’s more of a design, i’m an engineer. “ she added with a scrunch of her nose. “ and this is just a 2D representation of a very real nano tech suit, i’ve made. “ another pause. “ and believe it or not deciding on the paint job, has been a bigger nuisance than actually figuring out how to WORK tech on this godforsaken space hole. “ she paused once more. “ but thanks mr...? “

    she reminded him of someone or rather , multiple someones . all of them blonde and all of them displaying this same sort of unsolicited spurt of confidence . all of them so painfully stubborn . “ benjamin franklin . one of our founding fathers . i don’t think i’ve had the pleasure of meeting the lad . “ he leaves that up for interpretation , figuring that it was much too early on in the conversation to mention his inability to age . with every bout of ignorance that escapes her lips , his grin widens . over his time being on this god forsaken realm , he had come down to the conclusion that his reach didn’t extend as far as he would’ve liked . no one seemed to know about the terrifying reign of niklaus mikaelson , the original hybrid . the most powerful being on this earth . or , the other earth , at least . it was a truth he felt pained to admit but it was below him to take that anger out on such a young lady . after all , she had a whole dull mortal life ahead of her .      when they resorted back to speaking about his estranged siblings , he furrowed his brows . “ and what about you ? “ he asked , quite taken with the hints of knowledge that she seemed to have about where here happened to be . “ where is your family ? sounds like your incredibly mundane solution of waiting it out hasn’t worked out for you seeing as you are all alone . “ niklaus had never pegged himself to be a man of much patience . waiting it out simply wasn’t an option nor could it ever be . now that he was missing his hybrids , he would walk and search every inch of this land in order to reunite with his siblings . he took another look at her drawing or 2D representation as she liked to call it , soaking in the details as if he had missed them the first time . “ fascinating . now tell me , what would you possibly need a purple nano tech suit for ? “ if he were being honest with himself , he had expected nothing more than your average brunette with a bad attitude . and although that might be true , he knew better than to rid of someone who could possibly be of use to him . “ klaus . call me klaus ... and you are ? “ he held out his hand for appearances’ sake .

                    it had been a day, and castiel hadn’t gathered much important information since he’d arrived. granted, the time had been spent finding dean (as incredibly awkward as that was), and settling into his new – hopefully temporary – home. now, though, it was time to focus on figuring out how to return to his real one. to earth. luckily for him, one of his fake fbi badges had been in his pocket when he’d been brought here, and although he wasn’t sure how many of the planet’s inhabitants would even know what the fbi was, he thought it was worth a try. it had always been the best way to get information out of people, he’d been taught. “ agent swift, fbi, ” he greeted the first person he saw, flashing the badge upside down, before slipping it back into his pocket. “ if you wouldn’t mind answering a few questions? ” @zertheastarters​

    the original spares the incoming voice a glance , tilting his head in amusement . “ good evening , agent swift . “ his smirk was a tell-tale sign that he thought the other’s attempt at asserting dominance was but a game of charade . “ fbi , you say ? “ his first animalistic instinct was to snake his fingers around the other man’s throat , have his remains plastered to the wall behind him in mere seconds just for stopping him during such busy times — but again , perhaps the situation would be much more favorable if he was the one asking the questions . “ i think the question you should be asking here is ... “ niklaus momentarily trails off , gaze almost as ominous as his unfinished sentence . his chest heaves up and down with every breath as he closes the distance between them by an inch . “ what sort of answers you have for me . “

kori was enjoying exploring this new planet very much! they wondered if they lived on an island or if it was a large piece of land. were other beings here on other parts of the planet? there were so many things to explore. she was going through the tour when she wondered off, enjoying the plants that were growing that she had never seen before. “look at these beautiful flowers. do you suppose they have small animals here that are native to this planet, as well?” she asked the other. @zertheastarters​ ​limit three responses

    niklaus had roamed the earth , dripping in immortality , for over a thousand years . in doing so , he had only assumed he had experienced everything there was to experience , sought out all of the world’s wonders . that is , until he was placed in completely unfamiliar territory by what he could only chalk off as some sort of dark magic . he felt very much like himself but yet , not like himself at all . it was infuriating so to say the least but he hid it surprisingly well upon being approached by yet another fresh face . “ forgive me if i had better things to do than wonder if there are other worldly bunnies and squirrels roaming around . “ he comes off harsh but his temper vanquishes his ability to care . his fists are clenched but his voice calm . “ tell me . what do you know about this place ? “

                   SHE’D GRAVITED TOWARDS THE most isolated corner she could find, a note pad full of doodles tucked safely underneath one of her arms and an obnoxiously large ‘ alcoholic ‘ drink in the other —  one that she probably shouldn’t be having, given just how much comfort she’d come to find in said substance, but that was a rabbit hole she didn’t want to chase, not at the moment anyway. so instead she focused on the sketch in front of her, color pencils at her side, she reached for the purple one, as she admired her work. “ hmm.. “ her voice trailed as she reached for her glass of gin, a mental conversation with herself wasn’t out of the ordinary, and she would have probably began talking out loud had she not felt the persistent stare of someone’s eyes. 

pushing her dark and clearly oversized glasses upwards, the young woman huffed. “ you know that phone we got does come with a CAMERA... “ her voice trailed for a moment, but her sarcastic flourish wasn’t going to end there. “ if my BEAUTY really is so distracting that you have to stare like a PERV… take a picture. “ she finished with a tilt of her chin. “ i’m feeling charitable i won’t charge. “ she added with a roll of her eyes, before she looked down at the pro type sketch of her suit, she’d been working on. “ but as long as you’re here… what do you think of this? does purple match my complexion? or is it too much of a fall color, for my fair SPRING complexion? “

      " ah . yes . are you talking about this , love ? “ his thick accent was laced with short-lived curiosity as he held up the cellphone he had obtained through compulsion . niklaus was still in the process of finding discrepancies between this strange world and his own : technology happened to be one of them . “ humans and their tacky little inventions . nevermind your hardly endearing ego . i was actually looking for my siblings . have you seen them ? “ the look on his face morphs into one of deep resentment , pupils dilating . one too many times had his plans for his family to reunite been foiled and it was doing absolutely nothing for his lack of patience . “ a blonde about yay high . would have been flirting with the first lad to spare her a glance . “ not too long after his question had been asked did niklaus realize his efforts would be futile .       she seemed too self absorbed , too human . drowning in her own little world . an unfamiliar face . young , with a noticeably steady heartbeat . she would be of no help to him with his trek to locate his family . but her sharp tongue intrigues him and so he stays to indulge in light conversation .  “ ... exquisite drawing . i happen to dabble in the arts myself . “ the outlines catch his attention and he finds himself peering over . “ what is this , might i ask ? “ if he was going to be stuck in an alternate reality with someone who clearly had no idea who he was ( otherwise , she would not dare to speak to him in such a manner ) — he would have to make do .
