“ sometimes, the bravest thing is to walk away. ” Balthazar & @cainevesson
hums in response, as if he isn’t quite sure that cain is right. "that never quite worked out for gabriel, did it?" head shakes, as if balthazar feels obligated to keep to the mission. to help castiel and the winchesters. of course, he would much rather be off enjoying human things such as good spirits and better company. but when castiel begged a favor - well, balthazar couldn't quite say no. there were angelic siblings that he favored over the others in the host.
"it doesn't seem to have worked out so well for you, either." he doesn't fear cain. knows that the other could probably end him if he so desired. que sera sera, and all that. "well, lets not dwell on our mistakes, present or otherwise."
expensive bottle of wine held up. "i brought this as a gift. after all i've heard you've learned to cook over the years - more than whatever it is you humans ate in the beginning," hand waves dismissively, "i'm such a fan of fine dining." which is to say, balthazar has invited himself to dinner.
