The sisters talked to each other or to Novak; not that he gave them much more attention than anyone else in the room, despite their determined efforts to engage him. There didn’t seem to be any snide observation worth making that wasn’t made to Novak first and foremost. It was fascinating how they hung on to every response they pulled from him, triumph glinting in their beady little eyes, at each hard won word. You had to give them credit for persistence.

Dear Mr Winchester,’ it began. That was weird for a start. Mr Winchester was his Dad, well, up until a few years ago anyway. Dean was always just, Dean, for anything that mattered. Seriously this whole baking thing was bizarre enough, if they started calling everyone Mr this and Miss that, like some crusty old romance novel, he’d have to tell them it had all been some huge mistake and make a run for it. I don’t know, Jody.” Dean replied. “He looks more angry than lonely to me, doesn’t look much like he wants to talk to anyone.” The guy had a handsome face, for sure, but there was something off about him. Something that made Dean hesitate when he was normally all about jumping in feet first. It was probably something to do the money and a natural aversion to the blind privilege that came with it. Please leave me alone, Sarah, this isn’t achieving anything,” he sounded so put upon; Dean might have felt sorry for him in any other situation.

They’re Sarah’s sisters,” Sam informed Dean nodding towards the two women currently failing to engage Novak in conversation. “The one with dark hair is called Meg, and the other is Hester – she prefers to be called Mrs Hurst, the other guy is her husband.” Sam had managed to trap Sarah in conversation for more than quarter of an hour. Dean had considered launching a rescue mission, but Jody stopped him with a hand on his arm, pointing out that Sarah didn’t seem to mind. She was right too, judging by Sarah’s smiles and the way she absently twisted her hair around her fingertips. Dean knew the tells. They’d been directed at him so often he could read them as if they’d been painted in letters ten feet tall. In January 2016 he became a patron of Warley Woods after a number of years being actively involved. [38] Politics [ edit ] Dean pushed the paper away, and ignored Sam’s grumbling protest. “Okay,” he conceded, “that’s a fair number of zero’s. But let’s be real, I’m hardly likely to win. I’m a mechanic, Sam, not a baker, and Bobby can’t afford to keep my job open while I go off chasing some stupid TV show halfway across the country. He needs someone here who can work every day.” Dean held up his hands in surrender. "Relax man it was just a joke; just a very bad joke. But seriously, you look like you'd rather be anywhere but here right now so..." Under the Equalities Act 2010, it is unlawful to harass, victimise or discriminate against anyone because of their race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, or disability. The law does not outlaw discrimination on the grounds of weight, height or hair colour, although if obesity is the result of a disability, such as depression or diabetes, it could be covered.

Dean tries again, calls a little louder this time, “Hey, Castiel.” Still there’s no reaction. He’ll try one last time. He’ll even leave the relative safety of his workspace and go over there if he has to, if that’s what it takes. Dean opens his mouth to call again, just as Novak spins around, standing as he goes. He’s fast, and remarkably graceful as he moves, probably does yoga or some other bendy-exercise-garbage that Dean wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole (though he did once spend a remarkable and enlightening weekend with a yoga instructor – but he isn’t going to think about that right now, and definitely not in connection with Castiel Novak, who he also wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole). Sam looked away from the lady in the blue dress and frowned. “The good looking...?” Sam’s eyes went wide as Dean grinned. Sam clearly recognised that look. “Dean, I don’t know what you’re thinking, but seriously, do not go messing with this guy,” he warned. “This competition is important for you, the last thing you need is to go causing trouble with one of the most powerful people on the east coast. Pam might think the sun shines out of your ass right now, Dean, but believe me, she’ll drop you from the show in a heartbeat if you so much as look at Novak. Leave him alone it’s not worth the risk.” Pamela was, as usual, in her element and busy being introduced to the beautiful woman’s companions.

Even if legislators did manage to come up with a broadly acceptable definition, obesity is not like race, gender or even age. An individual’s weight fluctuates, meaning they may dip in and out of the 'official' range of obesity, or they may even try to gain weight so as to get legal protection. This would surely be the most bizarre example of the law of unintended consequences, thwarting what may seem at first glance like a good idea. So how did you get involved with the show, Castiel? You don’t look like your average baker; a banker maybe, but not a baker,” Dean laughed. Castiel did not.
