( this isn't the first time she's foolishly accepted a quest on her own — though, in her defense, the first time she didn't actually have any friends willing to go with her on what they all thought was a suicide mission into the sea of monsters. but it all worked out because percy decided to take it upon himself to crash her gig much like dean is doing now. and, yeah, she'd bitched about that, so there's no chance she's not going to bitch about this, too. )
Really? ( as indignant as only a teenager can sound. she urges her horse — aptly named midnight oil — forward to catch up, huffing her disdain. it's still strange riding a horse and not a pegasus, but she's getting used to, you know, being on the ground. ) I don't need a chaperone, Dean.
( and yet. here they are. she's not stopping and he's not stopping, so they're in this together now. that's fine. whatever. if her pride wasn't feeling so bruised, she might be happier to see him and maybe acknowledge that it's a good thing he's here, since her last trip into the badlands didn't end so well. she'll get there eventually, probably once the first monster shows up looking for lunch. at least she's more equipped this time, feeling much more comfortable in full armor with a sword at her side. just like home. )
