[Barbara's smiling. It's a cautious, calculated sort of smile, but it's real enough. The bags under her eyes have faded, but they're still apparent. Those looking keenly enough might notice she's holding herself a bit stiffly.]

Hello, multiverse.

You've tapped into the Barge's network. We're an interdimensional prison ship meant for rehabilitation. [The smile thins, sharpens.] Meant being the key word, here.

If anyone recognises me, feel free to say hello.

Or, heck, if you just want to shoot the breeze with someone from a different world. I'm Barbara.

Man, this is embarrassing: I swear I don't normally tap into things I'm not definitely trying to tap into.

[Have an uncertain, but distinctly sharp-eyed smile from a face that might look familiar, Babs.

Then he's grinning like an empty-headed idiot anyway.]

I'm Alec.

[Barbara stares for a second. It looks like she's talking to a younger Dean, but the cadence and body language is all wrong.

But it's not like she hasn't seen this happen before, so she grins back.]

You know, somehow I'm not convinced.

[Hey, at least this one's fun, and doesn't call him any of the names he sees trying themselves on behind her eyes. That makes his tomcat grin a bit more real, anyway.

He's still very obviously used to getting a lot of attention for said smile. And said face.]

Can't have that, can we? What would it take?
