Liz was out away from the Inn around noon trying to complete a science experiment that she thought might be useful for the obstacle course she and Kitty were almost ready to start building. She had all the components laid out including benign acids and basis. She wanted to see how she could cause a spray of foam jut out as an obstacle that might need to be avoided or at least distract for a while. It was like a much more sophisticated volcano experiment but instead of 'oozing lava', her goal was for spraying foam.

She was currently on the ground writing notes about a failed attempt - doing things like this was nice to get her mind off of other things that had been taxing her mind lately. That's when she heard panting. Liz looked up, expecting, maybe, to see Dante, but what she saw made her freeze. There was a wolf a few yards away. In her peripherals, she could see three more. Liz knew enough about wolves that she figured there had to be a few more behind her, since they hunt in packs. She started to do quick calculations on how fast they probably were and how fast she was not and then what chemicals she had with her that might be good distractions...

(ooc: Anyone who has a pup itching to use their powers or feel useful, feel free to come help Liz out. There is 6 or 7 wolves depending on your needs [a typical wolf pack size])

"Maybe. Maybe that's the common denominator with us. I mean not everyone needs to change obviously, but maybe this really is a nexus but not of time and space but our time and space. Maybe we go back and it's same shit, different day or maybe it's because of the choice we made here that we stay the same course or take a different one."

She smiled slightly, "maybe I tell destiny to kiss my ass and maybe destiny tells me to kiss its and it is what it is. Just hope there isn't a crossroads demon here." Sam told her about those and the deals you had to make.

Her brow furrowed. "Crossroads Demon?" Unlike Molly, Liz had never heard of one. She did know demons usually meant evil, but those were stories in her world.

"Yeah, have you heard the legend of Robert Johnson that sold his soul to the devil at a crossroads in Mississippi?" Molly looked at Liz. "It's a legend but the truth behind the deal with the devil seems is real. You have to dig a hole in the center of the crossroads and bury a picture of whoever wants to make a deal. You literally deal your soul to hell to get what you want. Robert Johnson supposedly did it for musical talent."

She hadn't heard of the man, but it all sounded really scary. "I don't think I'd ever have something I needed to make a deal for that badly..." She did believe in God and in Hell, but not to the extent that there were demons running around among them. Now she had to wonder if there were. "I guess I'll be sure not the dig a hole in a crossroad and bury a picture." She smiled a little.

"Really?" Molly looked at her with a small smile, "not even a chance to go to another time and place, a world that might not be yours?" She paused to let that sink in, "demons know how to tempt you really damn good, but they probably won't be at this crossroads. One would have showed up by now."

She assumed. To be honest they didn't have them in her world ... that she knew of anyways besides the Robert Johnson legend. Molly made a mental note to ask Sam, Mary or Dean if a crossroads demon could show up here if someone buried a picture.

Liz ducked her head because, well.. maybe she would have considered it, if she were given the option. But the more she thought about it, the more she realized that Peter would never have forgiven her and it would probably have hurt more than helped. Upsetting Pete that much was something Liz never wanted to do.

They were almost at the doors to the lobby now. "Thanks, Molly... for everything." Not just the wolves, but the chat as well.

"You're welcome." Molly paused before they got into the lobby where they could be overheard. "And if you ever want to talk or have questions about sex, feel free to stop by my room or come find me by the pool or bartending." She smiled, "I don't have a lot of relationship experience, but sex I can help you with."

She blushed again, but nodded. "Okay." She did have questions and maybe Kitty was getting tired and weirded out by answering them. The last time had been... embarrassing.

Liz paused, hovering for a moment like she wanted to do something, then gave a little hug to Molly because Molly had, after all, just saved her life among everything else.

"Thanks again." She paused for a second time, awkward, then pushed through the doors to the lobby.
