[There is a moment when it occurs to Dean to dig into that doubt he can see in Stiles now; that he doesn't trust the Admiral with Scott's life could be something Dean could get his own doubts in around, could start winning Stiles over to his side, to not trusting something so clearly demonic. If Scott stopped breathing, a faithful warden would know that he'd come back in an hour or so anyway. What is CPR against all the amassed magic here, and the Admiral's death toll?
But he bypasses it; maybe it's something of the old Dean, maybe it's that even now he isn't particularly inclined to be cruel and there is no way around the fact that that would be cruel. Instead, he shakes his head.]
Don't fool yourself. Staring isn't gonna change anything, and you aren't doing anyone any good thinking it might.
