Mary Winchester | 04 | [In Person]
[She couldn't sleep. She hadn't slept properly since she'd arrived...aside from the times John would stay at a motel after their fights, she hadn't slept alone since she was eighteen. Pulling the housecoat tighter around herself, she walked silently through the dark halls. It had become almost ritual to do this at night, walk herself until she was about ready to collapse...it was this or stare at the walls, cried out but unable to rest.
Not caring about where she went, Mary soon found herself staring into the gym. Taking a breath, she stepped inside, a small step for most, but a big one for her. It wouldn't kill her to have a look around, it wasn't like she was doing anything else anyway.
Sitting on the mat, she looked around. Ever since that guard beat the crap out of her, she'd thought about coming here and making herself useful again...she was hesitant though. Part of her wanted to build herself back up like she used to be, to not have to sit back and watch those she loves fight alone, it was beaten down by her other half though. The one that longed for that normalcy she had been denied as a child.
Sighing, she buried her face in her hands. She didn't know what to do. She'd fought so hard to escape having to fight monsters...but was just going to sit back and watch people being slaughtered and beaten when she could have done something to save them?]
...Why am I even here...

Appearances can be misleading - I'd give you an exact age, but even I'm not sure of that...
And I'm sure there's a story behind why a normal modern housewife is this anxious about a gym.

So I take it you're not human then? What are you?[She'd known there was something off about this woman, she just couldn't place it.]
[Don't say anything, Mary. Don't say--] Because I wasn't always a 'normal modern housewife'.
[Dammit! as long as she didn't say anything else, she may be able to get out of here without out letting on her past. The last thing she needed was enemies right now...]
Normal Modern Housewife, meet Normal Harmless Actress.
Not a clue. Everything gets a bit hazy back past the Crusades, I'm afraid, and the most I have to go on is that I'm not quite the girl I used to be. [] I'd say you should count yourself lucky you had that chance, but this place makes it a little hard to keep status quo.
