hellofistUm. I'm awake, now.
[Have a wave and half a smile, Barge.]
Didn't mean... to worry anyone. Sorry. I'm okay, though. I know... things have changed. Birthday passed. Was going to be... first one. Never knew it, growing up. Guess weapons... weren't allowed them. Merlin said, can have party. Don't know how, though. Could use tips.
Want to see everyone. Can meet somewhere, or you... come to Merlin's room. Staying here now, moved stuff already. It's... safer, this way. For my heart.
[That doesn't make a lot of sense out of context though, does it? She sighs and her smile fades, dissolves into a look that's somewhere between uncomfortable and just sad.]
There's a man here, David Cain. My father.
[She's truthful almost all of the time anyway, but this is when it becomes clear she's affected by this flood.]
Don't kill him. He's not... worth your time. Deserves a chance. Bad father, bad man, deserves to die, maybe should die, but... deserves his chance, too. Just leave him alone. Don't want people... getting hurt. Love you all too much.
That's... guess that's all.
Private to Bruce Wayne
Don't anymore, okay? Once is enough.
I love you.
Private to David Cain
Promise still stands. You kill anyone, I kill you.
... Hope this place... works, for you.
Spam for Dean and Barbara, separately
[Some people deserve to see her in person without waiting so she goes to them first, knocks and knocks and knocks on their doors until they open up, let her in. Once they do, they'll have an armful of Cass because there's no stopping her once she sees those faces again.]

1/2/13 17:03 (UTC)I'm so glad you're okay!
I've had a lot of birthdays. I can help you figure it out, if you want.
[She bites her lip, brow scrunching, and then switches the filter.]
[Private]
About your dad - I'm sorry he's a horrible person. That surprises me, because you're...well, really not. But if you don't want anything to happen to him I can protect him.
Private
1/2/13 18:41 (UTC)[And she looks so relieved to hear that.]
Will need... lots of help. Don't even know... where to start.
[The part after the filter switches has Cass sobering up a little, but she's still smiling. She hadn't realized there were people out there who would protect her father because she wanted him alive, not just run to kill him because of all the things he had done.]
He could use it. Don't think... he'll fight back. Defend himself. Didn't, last time... I saw him. [She looks a little ashamed, here.] Almost killed him. He... wanted it. To die.

I don't - I don't think people should kill each other. But I understand why it happens. And if he was horrible to you - [She shakes her head.] Parents are supposed to protect their kids.
But killing him won't make any of that go away. And if he really...if he can change. Then maybe he can protect someone else's children.
Private
1/2/13 22:37 (UTC)[It's kind of hard to wrap her head around all of that happening in honor of her.]
Feel same way. Killing is... not answer, to anything. Didn't know he was father, for long time. Thought... trainer. Keeper. Didn't find out until older. After... I ran away.
[The bit about protecting other children hits home hard and she nods. She doesn't think she's the only one anymore, just the only one that survived. The only one that worked.]
Want that. Him to change. Can't fix me, I'm too broken. But he can... stop others. No more Cassandras would be good.
Private
1/2/13 22:43 (UTC)[She's nodding, agreeable and thoughtful - and then those last words stop her stone dead, and she frowns at Cass severely.]
Hey. Stop right there.
You aren't broken, okay? You're - you're sweet, and brave, and kind. You are so much more than whatever horrible things have happened to you.
Private
1/2/13 23:49 (UTC)[She doesn't feel sorry for herself, she just knows there's things about her that don't work right. She's tired of trying to change those things though, the progress doesn't last and she has better things to do now.]
