"Half a glass."

Sat was sat at the kitchen table, watching Castiel carefully as he rolled up his sleeve. A dagger lay on the wooden surface next to a small glass tumbler.

This should have been an emotional moment, and perhaps it was in some ways - they had succeeded in psyching each other out so that they thought this was the only solution.

He was quiet, eyes focused on what he was doing instead of on Sam, watching his own blood drip into the glass. Sam had mentioned the healing before, and it made sense for it to be a side effect, though he disregarded the last thing Sam stated. That could easily have been a psychological effect, and likely was; didn't he feel similarly on demon blood ( ... )
