[Right here, right now is where Dean could really use a drink. But he's a shark-man, and he's underwater, and he'd probably lose the whiskey before it got in his mouth anyway.
He regrets a lot of things, yeah. Mostly having to do with Sam, or his father. Dean should have done a lot of things differently. But he knows there are others who feel the same. So when Philip finally decides to speak, the silence that lurches between them afterwards is almost deafening.
Dean has killed monsters. Some of them retained a semblance of humanity, and sometimes Dean felt regret afterwards. After plugging a werewolf with a silver bullet for his brother, because Sam wasn't strong enough to do it himself.
Plenty of people die in his line of business. That's just the way it is. But Dean has never killed someone in cold blood. He does realize, however, how monumental a step this is for Philip to be telling him what he did. And Dean has the sinking feeling it has something to do with all of Phil's questions about possession.
He stares at the markings on his shark's tail, chewing the inside of one cheek.]
