    Summary

    The briefing was simple: ‘Stand guard over the Michael Sword until the battle is ready to commence. Await further instructions.’

    Castiel doesn’t mind working security duty; he was briefed shortly after the initial salvation of the Sword from the pit, and again before taking up his position. He knows what to do. However, it’s easy to forget that the green room isn’t real. Time moves differently there, the space ever-changing to make a prison of mountains, cathedrals, salt flats, orchards, and whatever Castiel was led to believe about Heaven’s greatest weapon—Dean Winchester is something entirely unexpected.

    Summary

    Dean’s your typical half-orphaned, monster-killing 22-year-old until a trenchcoated stranger crashes into his back windshield one September night, claiming he’s an angel that knows him from the future and that he’s on the run.

    Frigging fantastic.

    (Or, in which Castiel gets stuck in Dean’s timeline preseries and Dean kind of hates it—until he doesn’t.)

    Summary

    Dean dies with the Mark of Cain on his arm, waking up with black eyes and hellfire licking at his heels.

    Cas, sick on the stolen grace that's rotting inside him, gives chase.

    As his pursuit and Dean's evasion ebbs and flows, they begin to figure out the difference between marks given and marks received, and what it means when one such mark is faded but not forgotten.

    Written for the 2015 DCBB.

    Summary

    It’s partly to silence his own thoughts, and partly to explain his shell-shocked reaction that Dean says, “I didn’t even think that angels could feel stuff like that.”

    Cas’s face goes blank. Neither Dean nor Cas say anything or look at the other for a long moment.

    “To be fair, I don’t think angels are supposed to,” Cas finally says, voice rougher than it had been, and somehow distant. “Even as a human, I’ve never had a soul.” There’s a glassy look in Cas’ eye as he stares past a spot on the wall, and his voice dips quiet. “What should it feel like? To be in love?”

    *

    Dean didn't think that angels could feel love. He's very wrong about that. But he's also determined to make up for his mistake.
