Supernatural: leapfrogging

Castiel

"We need to find another vessel ASAP." I bark out the words, hardly certain if they are my own. Dean's thoughts are all a scramble, and I try to hear them clearly, but they bustle together and come out as nothing but the fever pitched ring of audio feedback. "Oh my dad, Dean, calm down..." My reassurances seem to calm him for long enough for me to finish the conversation with Sam, "Dean seems terribly distressed about something." I explain, "but his thoughts are far too loud and jumbled for me to hear them properly."

"Wait, you can hear Dean's thoughts?"

"Clearer than I could ever hear the thoughts of any human whom I have occupied the skin of. Even Jimmy Novak." I say with a smile.

"What does that mean? Is it a good thing?"

"Well, it's good news for you and for Dean, it means that you both have very strong spirits, to put it bluntly, you two won't go down without a fight when it comes down to your final days, that's for certain. The angles knew you had strong blood, though I think perhaps they may have underestimated just how strong. I'm sure that if Dean wanted to, if he really focuses on it right now, he would be able to expel me from his body with as little as a single thought."

"Woah.." Breathed Sam, a little dumbstruck.

"I can feel Dean beginning to get a little restless, I think it's best if we follow his advice and start searching for my new vessel as soon as possible."

"Oh sure, you said you would need a vessel with pure, righteous blood, right? Where do you think is the best place to start looking?" T

"Well, if I were you, I would be looking in all of the churches, but, given the choice, I would rather not posses a living body, it feels too much like I'm stealing life away from them. And I suppose I would rather not be digging up any tombs, I have enough marks against my name in heaven without that kind of thing."

"Then I think we'd better be stopping off at the nearest morgue. I don't know about you, Cas, but if you don't mind, I think I'm gonna pull in at the next motel. It's been a long, long day and I'll need at least four hours sleep before we start digging up any bodies."
