He doesn't know me. I guess ... people can come here from different times. And he's from before, when they were still fighting Amara.
[ Jack doesn't understand it fundamentally but he doesn't get a lot so he just accepted it without question. There is no reason that Castiel would lie to him and he does feel very different. Rundown. Broken. Not the confident and together father that he knew and counted on. It's strange for Jack to feel like he's the one who is more secure. Enough that he felt like he had to take care of Castiel, not the other way around.
He takes the drink and tries it, and this one tastes good, he smiles at her. Some of the harder things make him cringe but this is okay. He offers it back to her for more. He wishes a little bit that he could get tipsy because talking about his father not knowing or loving him hurts so much. He knows humans often drink their troubles away, but he doesn't have that option unless he downs a few bottles in a row, and even then it's iffy. ]
I learned something I didn't know before. Castiel is who let Lucifer out of the cage, he is responsible for my eventual birth. I wonder if that's part of why he felt that it was his duty to be connected to me.
[ If Castiel didn't do that, Jack would never have been alive. And so it was Castiel's responsibility to take that child if he refused to kill him and make him the opposite of Lucifer. Jack doesn't know if this makes him feel better or worse about their relationship. He knew Castiel always felt obligated to him, but his love was sincere. ]
He didn't like what I told him. I don't think he likes me either.[ Said glumly. ]
