Supernatural, Castiel/any, as Castiel loses his angel mojo, he loses the ability to understand English & other languages from Earth

no fic yet

but as this idea hasn't left me alone since I first scrolled past it this morning, I might have something for you later this evening.

[Funny story: this was supposed to be 500 words. Instead, it's 1200 and wants to be more like 8000. Forgive the awkwardness as I tried to reign it in

Finally, Cas sits down with him and spreads out a sheet of paper covered with symbols. He points at the paper and says something in Enochian and looks at Dean expectantly.

Dean turns to Sam, who is watching them out of the corner of his eye as he reads on the couch. "A little help?"

"He says, 'This is the beginning.'"

And he isn't kidding. Cas takes him through the Enochian alphabet three times, pointing at each symbol, saying its name out loud, and waiting for Dean to repeat it. Sam divides his attention between them and his book, a small smirk on his face as Dean struggles.

Cas points at the first symbol again. "Pa."

"Pa," Dean says.

"Veh."

"Veh."

"Ged."

"Gid."

Cas shakes his head. "Ged."Ged," Dean repeats, and he stares down at the symbols Cas is pointing at, trying to commit them to memory. They all look the same to him. And how the hell is he supposed to use this to talk to Cas when he can't even figure out the damn alphabet

And forgive the fact that I said 'reign' instead of 'rein' right off the bat like a moron. Sigh.

This is wonderful. <3 Thank you so much! Cas is adorable and wonderful, and man o man but I can sympathize with Dean - HS French kicked me to the curb and back.

Thanks for the prompt! I'm not sure if my fill was what you were looking for, but losing/gaining language and linguistics in general has always been really fascinating to me. I honestly didn't stop thinking about this idea all day. <3

Re: fill - (2/2)

[zekkass]

It's pretty much exactly what I was looking for, thank you. :D (Not that I'd have objected to angstier stuff or whatnot, but this is fantastic. :D)

Once I started writing it, there was so much more I wanted to do with it. I'll drop you a line if I ever have the time to make it the 8000 word fic it wants to be. XD

Re: fill - (2/2)

[zekkass]

Please do! :D

~flails at you~ their precious little faces, omg. (and yes, i'll admit to wanting more of Dean being awkward with Enochian. but you know that shit about me. ;))

Ah! That kiss at the end was so sweet.

And I can understand Dean's frustration. It's gotta be hard learn another language especially when you're not as book smart as Sam, Bobby and Cas are.

Still, he does try.
