They had wasted too much time. That was made clear by the desolate nature of the hallway. Castiel realized that it was his fault, for fixating on a clue that they had not been meant to follow, but he didn't bother apologizing. It had been Gabriel's choice to go along with it.
It looked like the door that they were coming up on, to the left, would only lead into more rooms. They would need to keep moving, and hope that they didn't reach a dead end at the end of the corridor.
But now that they were on the move, it seemed like an ideal time to question Gabriel on something that he had been wondering about since their earlier discussion. "You questioned me about dying before," he spoke up as he walked, not bothering with a lead-in. Castiel managed to meet his brother's eyes for only a second or two before looking straight in front of him again. "What happened?"
If he caught the archangel off guard, maybe he would answer directly instead of trying to avoid the question.
