for charloft: Woke up without powers...

[likely_evil]

If you are special in some way, (vampire, werewolf, psychic, et cetera), how would you react if you woke up one morning stripped of your power?

When I first got them, I would have been glad to have them gone. I never wanted them, and they caused me nothing but trouble and psychotic hunters trying to kill me. And we won't even go into the little ghost town death match.

But now... if I woke up and they were gone, I know we would be in deep shit - the smallest being Lilith coming to kill us in our sleep, and the biggest being the Apocalypse. For all that I'm being told that using these powers is wrong, I don't see how we would have won otherwise. Samhain? Alastair? I'm getting stronger each time, and I know I'm almost to the point where I can handle Lilith. And once she's gone and the seals are safe?

Then I'd gladly wish them away for the rest of my life. To finally be free from this curse in me... probably the best thing I could ever imagine happening.

But not while they are keeping Dean us alive - and now if the angels themselves can't even protect him? - It's up to me. And I need to be stronger still.

If I woke up and they were gone tomorrow - I would have Ruby give them back to me. Even if it's disgusting and I hate myself every time I do it, I can't be weak now. I can't afford to lose Dean again, or let Lilith win. Not happening, even if I have to sacrifice myself in the end to set the world straight again.

I meant further back but... You've got a point there.

Thank you.

You think that what-- what we have will be good enough, in the end?

[likely_evil]

I dunno. But I can hope it is. We've been able to accomplish a lot of things together. I'd put money on us being able to take on an Apocalypse.

Money, huh? I expected something more interesting from the smartest Winchester.

I'd doubt you'd let me bet using the Impala as collateral.

... definitely not. I guess we'll have to move our asses and do it without a proper bet.

Hustling pool is more fun.
