Soushi thought he'd heard something? Whatever it was, he looked distressed about it, and that was enough to set off warning bells for Castiel. But whatever Soushi might be hearing, Castiel definitely couldn't make it out. That didn't necessarily mean much, though, as mind tricks were common in this place. He narrowed his eyes, curious to know more, but left that alone for now.

It seemed that Soushi was serious about wanting to travel with him tonight. Castiel was of two minds about it, but in the end he realized this would be the best way to keep an eye on the half-demon. And it was possible Soushi would be able to gain his trust eventually as well. Since Soushi was supposedly some kind of guardian, that likely also meant he had experience with fighting, so he'd be a helpful traveling partner.

"If you want to search for that room, we can do so. Escape is my top priority as well, so we can explore ways to do that together." Tonight, at least. Castiel wasn't going to sign himself up for any more than that, not yet.

This room that might contain some of their possessions wasn't one Castiel had been to, but he had a vague idea of where it was from the maps that were posted up periodically. He was confident he could find it, if his healing body would allow.
