"then get up and do something, jessica."

john's always been pro-action, it's easier, moving instead of reflecting. he's sure she's had more than enough reflection herself.

"if you need ideas, i'm looking into something small stakes. it should only take a few hours."

excitement shone in her eyes for what felt like the first time since her near death at stanford. she knew sam hated it, seeing that revenge-fueled hunting desire in her eyes. but how could she know about monsters and not try to stop them from hurting other people like her? how could she not aid in the warpath of the very demon that had ordered her death?

but she had to try to play it cool in front of john. jessica wasn't an overly-eager damsel in distress waiting to happen. she couldn't be that again.

"really? you'll take me? ... what are we looking at? a spirit? ghouls?"

"ghouls ain't much of a beginner's hunt. spirit. you're going to have to listen to instructions."

there's a concern about dragging jessica into their world deeper than she already is. it's going to start a fight with sam. but sammy had never understood that if you're not fighting them, if you're not learning how to stop the monsters in the dark, you're a sitting duck for when they come after you.

"if you can't do what i say, then this'll be the only hunt you go on. understand?"

well, that boulder’s ME. ❞ ❝ i prefer to keep work and my personal time separate. ❞ ❝ sure, you look like a strong breeze could blow you over, but you are solid as stone. ❞ ❝ that pride will be your downfall. ❞ ❝ i’ve been abandoned by love…by luck…by happiness. ❞ ❝ at last…i have been waiting for you to arrive. ❞ ❝ i am stunned. i am in complete and utter awe with you. ❞ ❝ despite all we have endured, my feelings for you have never altered. they never shall. ❞ ❝ am i some sort of villain? or a force for good? ❞ ❝ i’m just fated to be unhappy. steer clear or you’ll catch my misfortune. ❞ ❝ you’re your own worst enemy sometimes. ❞ ❝ i will crush any opposition. i will rule. ❞ ❝ that’s an old dangerous road absolutely crawling with monsters. ❞ ❝ now that you’ve seen it, i can’t let you live. ❞ ❝ you look like a gentle soul who wouldn’t hurt anything. ❞ ❝ my body…my mind…everything. i’ll sacrifice it all to destroy you. ❞ ❝ i had almost forgotten the thrill of battle. that feeling as blood surges in my veins… ❞ ❝ i bet evil always scatters when you show up. ❞ ❝ it’s important to remember that luck and love aren’t things that run out. sometimes they just take the long way to get to you. ❞ ❝ i’m gonna make my ancestors proud today. ❞ ❝ this world should be shrouded in darkness, not bathed in insufferable light. ❞ ❝ it would have been more…satisfying to overcome a worthy foe. ❞ ❝ a mere mortal will not stand in my way. ❞ ❝ you’d walk away…from someone in need? ❞ ❝ you have proven yourself, and you no longer need me. ❞ ❝ i have some heartbreaking news to share. this will be tough to bear, but i ask that you stay strong. ❞ ❝ you might think of this as ‘hush money,’ and…yes. that’s what it is.. ❞ ❝ now, let’s both pretend like this never happened. ❞ ❝ you might think i’m a hopeless coward…and you wouldn’t be entirely wrong. ❞

ANYWAY HELLO

MOL: They’re rules, they’re establishment, they’re centuries of meticulous knowledge stored up that only intervene in the forest of moments. Restrained, controlled violence.

Hunters: Chaotics, lawless except among each other. Can’t keep their noses out of business even when it’s small. Often extremely violent with less refined methods and emphasis on personal freedom

" — but i guess you jus' gotta wait until he gets back from the store. " dean answered pointedly, defining a different conclusion to his father's own thoughts for the sake of dismissing the question so as to prioritize a different one. " where have you been? " his tone was sharp, a bit impatient, in fact. he wasn't too please with the lack of answers thus far.

"i've been following up on leads." a non answer, information dean already knows. but the less he knows, the harder it will be for him to follow john down this path. and he won't take his boys down that death sentence with him. not with everything he's uncovered. "its been better to fly under the radar, the bastard's hard to get anything on."

"good to hear." and it meant that dean had the time to look after the car, that he hadn't been hurt too badly while john's been gone. the state of the impala was the best meter he could have on his eldest some days. "how's sam doing? i'd ask him myself, but..." the last fight they'd had before sam left still hangs around the two of them.
