[progeny]

[are you ready for this, dean? the texts come one after the other, barely any break given for him to reply before jack's sending the next-]

Dean. How do I cook a frozen burrito?

Why is there a pineapple on the wall?

What does trigonometry mean?

The police are cats. They look like they're possessed. But they're not. What's wrong with them?

[ He's never going to be ready for this level of… Jack. ]

rogaine sam finally let you out of his sight for more than 2 seconds? I'm impressed. why the 20 questions kid? sam busy washing what's left?

[progeny]

Who's Rogaine Sam?

I only asked four questions. Well, five now.

[ruined]

[ Awesome. ]

I'm not big on questions kid. you need somebody to show you how to load a gun or gank a monster? fine. but my name isn't google

[progeny]

I know. You're Dean.

Would you show me? How to load a gun. I've never used one before.

[ruined]

nobody ever showed you? you said I'm your friend in your world and I never showed you how to use a gun?

[progeny]

I've only been with them for about a month. And Sam was the one who was helping me.

[and using a gun was never an option. not when he was so focused on trying to get jack to use his powers]

[ruined]

[ Who is this kid that's been with them for a month and somehow they're friends? He's so out of practice having friends that it leaves him feeling both uncomfortable and exposed. ]

sam was helping you but he didn't show you how to use a gun on day 1? sloppy

[ It's not exactly judgement, more like he doesn't know what else to say because he doesn't understand yet. He doesn't get it and it bothers him. What the hell's the missing piece here? ]

[progeny]

I'm not a hunter, so I've only been on one case with them before.

I think I want to learn how though. I want to be able to help people.

[ruined]

okay. and you think learning how to use a gun is how you want to help people?

[progeny]

No.

I think I want to be a hunter. I want to protect people.

[ruined]

only one way that life ends kid. bloody and alone

do yourself a favor and go to college

[progeny]

No. I have to help people. I can't do that if I go to college.

[ruined]

you really want this don't you?

[progeny]

Yes.

I want to be good. And hunters do good every day.

[ruined]

ask sam. I might be a hunter but I've done a lot of bad. you don't need to learn from me. learn from somebody who actually has a working conscience

[progeny]

Sam is teaching me things already. But I'd like to learn from you too.

[ There's no response back this time, but Dean's thinking about it. Will think about it until he sees Sam unloading groceries from Baby at the weirdly gothic looking farmhouse a few days later and finds out who Jack really is. ]
