[ Billie was just another person in a line of people who tried to use Jack for her own reasons. Even his fathers technically did that, for missions, but with them he doesn't mind because he knows it is for the right reasons. But he's so easy to manipulate that Billie was added to the list of foolish reasons he trusted someone. At least the others did too, it wasn't only him looking to the wrong source. ]
Yes, but I think it's triggered by something needing to happen. I didn't absorb Lucifer by being around him, it was when he and Michael fought and he died that it came into me.
[ So Rowena is under no danger right now, her power safely within her. She'd need to use it on him or close to him for him to take any of it in, and he doesn't know yet if it's something he can gift back. He's been able to share his power before so it seems like it's possible. He gave Castiel power from the womb to survive, and he's happy to share, so it's not all in one place. But this is new. He's flooded with it now, but it's not as bad as the bomb itself was. ]
I can feel it though. I did blow up from the bomb against God, but it was in the Empty. And I must have ... cracked open, I guess? So it's coming in.
[ It's the natural state of being for Jack throughout his life that he never knows how to control what's on his fingertips. This is no exception. He has the active power of himself and an archangel now, and Rowena understands how dangerous that could be. But it's because he trusts her so much that Jack is telling her at all. He's not afraid she'd fear him and push him away. She'll know better than him what to do. ]
