Lovely Δ SPN [ 1 ]

chapter fifty

They're in the motel after finding Castiel's vessel Jimmy at the aftermath of an angel fight. Jimmy sits and basically devours a burger and fries while the brothers sit on either side from him, across from each other, and Evie is on Sam's lap.

"You mind slowing down? You're gonna give me angina." Dean says.

"I'm hungry." Jimmy defends.

"When's the last time you ate?" Sam asks.

"I don't know. Months." Jimmy says. He hums in delight, continuing to eat.

"Are we just gonna stare at him the whole time he eats?" Evie asks.

"What the hell happened back there? It looked like an angel battle royale." Sam says.

"All I remember is a flash of light and I, uh... I woke up and I was just, you know, like, me again." Jimmy says.

"So, what? Cas just ditched out of your meat suit?" Dean asks.

"I really don't know." Jimmy says.

"You remember anything about being possessed? Anything at all?" Sam asks.

"Yeah, bits and pieces. I mean, angel inside of you, it's kinda like being chained to a comet." Jimmy says.

"Ah, that doesn't sound like much fun." Dean says.

"Understatement." Jimmy says.

"Cas said he wanted to tell us something. Please tell me you remember that." Sam says.

"Sorry." Jimmy apologizes.

"Come on, what do you know?" Dean asks.

"My name is Jimmy Novak. I'm from Pontiac, Illinois. I have a family."

"So, what do we do?" Sam asks as the brothers stand by the car while Jimmy's in the room and Sam is holding Evie.

"What do you mean? The guy's got a family. We buy him a bus ticket, send him home." Dean says like it's obvious.

"I don't know about that. Dean, he's the only lead we got." Sam says.

"He doesn't know anything." Dean says.

"Are you 100% about that?" Sam asks.

"You think he's lying? What, you wanna go Guantanamo on the guy?" Dean asks.

"Dena, maybe he doesn't even know what he knows?"

"Huh?"

"I say, at least we get him to Bobby's. Maybe all he needs is hypnosis or a psychic. Or hell, maybe Cas will just drop back into him."

"I don't know, man."

"Dean, back there, that was angel on angel violence. Now, I don't know what's going on, but it's big. And we can't just let the only lead we got just skip out." Dean shakes his head. "What?"
