"Holy fuck," breathed Crowley. He stared at the picture, tracing the resemblance, and then up at Zatanna. "John has a son..."
If he wasn't already sitting, he'd have to. The demon was suddenly dizzy; inundated with hundreds of questions and he didn't know which to ask first.
But what he ended up saying was, "Yeah, he's rather insistent about that. Doesn't... didn't want to pass on the curse. Or put anyone else in the same position. Worried that his enemies would go after them. Sometimes, though, I get the feeling that he's not so certain about being the last of the Constantines. He talks big, but..." Crowley shook his head, unbelieving, trying to remember everything John had told him about his feelings for Tefe (http://community.livejournal.com/neutral_omens/47793.html?thread=688817#t688817).
Crowley certainly wasn't going to pass judgment on Zatanna for having a child out of wedlock or for not telling the father. It seemed like a damn good idea to him. If John knew and anything happened to the kid because of him, he'd destroy himself.
And because he'd started speaking, the questions just started to pour out. She must have told him about the twin thing for some reason... "So, your boy, what's his name? Was there a twin? Does he have your powers? Where's he been living? Does he know who his parents are?" And then, what he really wanted to know, "And why tell me?"
