(closed) it's a common thing to be out of line

Who: Alice and Crowley
When: After the fake mission
Where: Starting in the standard carriage, then moving on
What: Alice is huffy, so her demon dad decides to start havoc to amuse her.
Warnings: Spoooooky ghosts.

Usually Alice doesn't mind dealing with missions. It's why she goes on them rather than staying back on the train - it's her hero complex playing up, the part of herself that she would never admit to, but that wouldn't want to see even a single person hurt who wasn't deserving of that hurt in some way.

But this wasn't like that. They were fighting against what felt like an impossible enemy, and for what? For absolutely nothing. She wasted way too much energy on a place without a single person in danger, and nothing could be more annoying to her like that. Nothing would make her feel more like she's just some puppet, being manipulated by forces greater than her all over again.

And she isn't afraid to show it either. Once Alice gets tired of beating up training dummies in a faint attempt to try and get this anger out, she just gets to outright sulking.

It's that way that a certain demon might happen upon her - while Alice is sitting around in the standard coach, slumped on a chair, her feet up on the table because screw etiquette, she's angry, and her facial expression looking like she's just about ready to kill something.

(Except more in that huffy teenager way. Maybe your daughter is hitting puberty, Crowley.)
