Who: Astor Bennett, Sam Winchester, and OTA
When: Day 29, after the snowball fight
What: Astor needs to warm up with some hot chocolate and eat something
Rating: Probably PG at most
Status: Complete

After the snowball fight, Astor was tired, wet, cold, and hungry. And wired. She knew if she went back to her room, she could take a hot bath and ask the Planet for something to eat, but she was in a good mood. She'd all but forgotten that she was so upset about leaving Cody behind involuntarily. The people here, so far, were really nice and they knew how to have fun. Even the grown ups did!

She wandered around the resort for a little bit until she could smell the unmistakable scent of food and headed inside. It was a restaurant of some kind and there were weird stone statues standing around almost at random, but Astor ventured further in and took up a menu. A short scan of it gave her a big grin.

"Hot chocolate with lots of marshmallows. And a brownie. A big one that's really gooey and warm," she said to no one really in particular before plopping down into one of the booths and shaking the melting snow out of her hair.

"Yeah, a little bit, but that's not for us to judge," Sam said carefully. "That's what we have lawyers for and hopefully they're good enough that they send the right people to jail to be punished. I was going to be a lawyer before I took up this hunting job," he admitted. "Some things are just evil. And some people are just crazy. But they shouldn't be killed, they should be taken somewhere where they can get help. They're human. There's a difference. Yeah, vampires are real and I only kill the ones that won't stop killing other people even after I try and get them to stop. If I can reason with something, I always try that first. Just going in and killing something isn't the way things should be done."

Astor gave a sigh of frustration. "But Dexter says, 'the system is flawed' and that sometimes bad guys...really, really bad guys don't get caught. And that they just keep on hurting people until somebody stops them," she explained with as much patience as she could muster.

Sam had said he was going to be a lawyer, so Astor bit her tongue against going on about overhearing Dexter and Sergent Debbie talking about corrupt judges and lawyers making lives for good cops harder. She probably wasn't supposed to hear that conversation anyway, so no point bringing it up to Sam.

"Some people are crazy, but aren't there also some people who are just evil? Like...Charles Manson, he was a really, really bad man," she said knowingly. "He made people kill other people. That's not just crazy, that's evil. Right? So it's like that, right?" she tried to appeal her case to him.

For a few moments, Astor had been really excited. Maybe she'd found somebody with an Inside Shadow or Dark Passenger who just harnessed it differently than Dexter did; differently than she and Cody were going to. Now, she wasn't so sure.
