    Summary

    He misplaced his angel. He didn’t hold on hard enough. He got Cas back only to lose him immediately.

    -

    Cas comes back on a Thursday.

    And then keeps coming back on Thursdays. He doesn’t seem to have much choice in the matter, actually. For the rest of the week, he’s stuck in the Empty, and Dean is left trying to figure out how to save him, how to talk to him—and how to get him out for good.

    Summary

    Cas’s fingertips held in his own, Dean brings the angel’s hand to his mouth, and presses his lips to Cas’s weathered knuckles.

    It’s just a thank you. It’s just a way of saying thank you.

    Of saying 'thanks, I know that having to do this shit all the time must annoy you, and I know that for some reason you’ve chosen to worry about me and I’m sorry that you have to, and also, I appreciate it.'

    It took Dean years not to resent the help of Cas healing him. But slowly the resentment melts into tolerance, and again into thankfulness. And every time Cas touches Dean to heal him, he starts saying his thanks by repaying in touch. It starts with grazing his lips against Cas's knuckles, squeezing his hands, kissing the soft skin of his wrist.

    It’s a way of saying thanks. And, he guesses, sorry.

    Of saying, 'Sorry for scaring you. I don’t know how me being hurt could scare you like it always seems to. But it always seems to. And that scares me.'

    Summary

    “Weddings- marriage- it’s weird.” Dean pauses. “I don’t get it, but I also kinda envy them, ya know?” A deep breath in. He sniffles like a nervous habit. “Like, somehow I thought I’d be dead by thirty, but I also had this thing in my head that I’d get married. That’s what guys are supposed to do- what people are supposed to do. Get married. Just felt like something that would automatically happen whether I wanted it to or not.”

    Did you want it to?”

    Yes.

    Dean pushes his lips out. “Don’t know how much it matters. Pipe dreams usually stay in the pipe.”

    Summary

    He breathes — he is breathing — and somewhere there is a part of him that swells with this breath. Othered from the Shadow, from its limitless void, he is rising to the surface, taking form.

     

    "Cas."

     

    Strange that he should hear, in this place where there is no sound. Strange that it should warm him, grace and soul and body.

     

    "Cas, buddy, you gotta help me out here."

     

    or;

    Cas is being woken from his slumber in The Empty. Dean is here to rescue him, and Cas journeys through the Dark to get to him, to grasp the hand being extended to him.

    A small exploration of Castiel's story, his relationship with humanity, and most of all, love.

    Summary

    Dean’s plans for the future have always been pipe dreams and bravado. He kind of abstractly wanted to live through this - whatever Cas or Sam thinks or accuses him of, he didn’t want to die; he just expected to.
