[The young man that appears on the Plane might seem familiar to some, particularly those who've been around for a few years now. He has dark hair and good cheekbones, and is wearing a pair of dark sunglasses and a snappy suit. For the first few seconds after his arrival he just looks around, obviously confused.]

[Then, slowly, he reaches up and pulls off the glasses. Anyone near enough would be able to see yellow eyes with vertical slits for pupils, much like the eyes of a snake. Right now those eyes are filled with something like recognition.]

Bloody--

I know this. Why do I...?

[Another moment and the eyes close.] The Plane. That's what this is. I--

[A pained expression crosses his face and he lifts one hand to his head, as if stricken with a headache.]

Go- Someone, I need a drink. Where's the bar gone to?

And where's the angel when you need him?

It seems that way. I can't believe I'd forgotten this place...

Er. How've you been?

[lamb_of_gold]

....Forgot?

Well enough, I suppose.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

I haven't thought of the Plane in... what, two years? I've been working, sleeping, acting as if it didn't even exist. I didn't even recognise the shop when I spotted it in Soho. How's that even possible?

[lamb_of_gold]

The same thing happened to Sam...[But he's gone again, too]

I'm afraid I don't know the hows.

[He shakes his head.]

I need a drink.

[And he starts toward the bar. It's... kind of like an invitation for Mu to join if he wants? Except Crowley doesn't actually say it, cause that's just how he is.]

[lamb_of_gold]

[He gets it and follows quietly, since Crowley probably has questions up the wazoo.]

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

[They take a roundabout sort of route to the bar but Crowley's got a sort of instinctual memory when it comes to locating alcohol. He slips back behind the bar and mixes himself a quick Bloody Mary, then looks up at Mu.]

What'll you have?

[lamb_of_gold]

Nothing, thank you.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Mm, suit yourself. [He leans against the bar, still on the side opposite Mu, and downs half the cocktail in one go.]

You mentioned Sam. Anyone else around here I'd recognise? Cy? Juni? The Doctor?

[lamb_of_gold]

Which Doctor? There have been several come and gone from here.

Cy and Juni...[Mu shakes his head] I haven't seen either of them in a long time now.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Ah... that's a good question. Tall, skinny, great hair? Penchant for pinstripes and long coats?

[He takes the news about Cy and Juni silently for a moment before shaking his head.]

That's too bad. I might actually miss that little beast Cy--now that I've remembered her, that is.
