The demon sounded like she was happy about getting the meat suit in the bargain, and that she had to talk him into saying yes to something.
Doesn't make sense with needing Sam's rage, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Also weirdness--does Dean want to settle down now, or does he want it for Sam?

Because books.
Oh, they'd want the vessel, certainly. I'm just not sure someone else in it giving consent would work.
I kept expecting Sam to have an asthma attack when he was struggling in the chair.

It sure sounded like they were asking for the same sort of acquiescence they'd been angling for from Sam. She seemed stoked at the bonus.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
They played it like anything in Sam's meat could say yes and it'd count. Veracity of that aside, it read like Garry could give Lucifer the meatsuit invitation.
What gets me is how far they've come from "what don't I know about that kid?"
Seriously.

Art Crawl!!!
What I don't get is why Sam didn't exorcise the demon BEFORE it killed the blond kid. (Given that we know that he memorized the ritual before Dean did. . .I guess this means that they dumbed Sam down too.)
On the other hand, Sam as Gary was hilarious.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Dean taking so long to catch on was ridiculously frustrating to me. I yelled at the teevee a couple times.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, he should have caught on a LOT sooner.

He let Sam drive. . . and then "Sam" hurt Metallicar!

See, I don't think so. Isn't the soul, the person what needs to give consent?...
Oh, they'd want the vessel, certainly. I'm just not sure someone else in it giving consent would work.
I get hung up on this issue when it comes to Sam's apparent inevitable damnation. Mary made a deal with Azazel and sold him Sam in return for John's life. But I thought conventional wisdom was that you couldn't sell someone else's soul, you could only make deals for your own. Because technically you don't own anyone else's. (Dean traded his own; that's different from him going to the crossroads and offering up, say, Bobby's soul.) In which case Sam wouldn't be predestined to have evil shadow him just from those few drops of blood. Because Sam himself never offered his soul.
Possibly I think too much.
