[ Under regular circumstances the first part would be the most surprising thing here. After all, where Daniel comes from, you don't often get to hear that someone is a literal God - not unless they're just some scam artist trying to start a cult, after all.
But even though he hasn't been in this place for long, this guy has had the world's fastest course in learning how to accept things that would have sounded completely ridiculous to you, once upon a time. It makes the God thing just a side fact in this entire matter, other than the fact that it means this person they're talking about is very powerful. More so than Johnny himself described, anyway, since he left it at 'oh, he might summon a few skeletons.'
No, what Daniel's attention is instead drawn to is the second part. ]
Your father left you to drown?
[ Maybe more mundane in the face of the entire god deal, but of course it's where Daniel's entire attention goes to instead. He has way too many dad feelings of his own to not be absolutely horrified by the idea. If it had been Sam or Anthony in that water, drowning, dying-- even just thinking about it threatens to make him sick.
How could any parent ignore that?
Daniel may have seemed calm a moment ago, but the worry is very visible on his face now. His skin may even have grown a touch more pale. ]
That's.. why you died? Because you drowned, and he didn't even try to save you?
