[ At first, there is nothing but static, flaring louder and louder, and the picture onscreen dissolving into fuzzy gray and black lines. It rises and rises, hitting almost ear-piercing pitches, until, abruptly, it stops, and the picture resolves itself into a man. There is a faint rustle that may or may not be wings. He peers at the device, head

[Oh, well he's a curious one. She's met some like him before.]

No speaking because it's night. The King doesn't appreciate it. Some sort of voice filtration or cancellation, I suppose.

You're in Promenade.

[ wow that made no sense to him at all. ]

Which King? Where is Promenade and how might I leave?

[She's good at that; making no sense.]

King Tivorno. A mute king who doesn't seem to like others being able to speak when he cannot. He presides over the night here in Promenade. I'm afraid even I don't know where Promenade is within the universe. And there's certainly no leaving, not yet. Not that anyone's been able to find.

Straight up answer: you're dreamin'. Also you nearly broke my ear drums. Thanks.

[He's not particularly happy about that. He's used to his hearing as a dog.]

[ofinsurrectum]

[hellsadogfight]

[Hey there not!son. Not!Mom is chilling in the Garden of Eden like a boss. She's just sort of lounging in the wild growing meadow with an old book in her lap.]

It's a dream world. [That's all She's going to say since Castiel probably has other things to say to her.]

[ there is a very long pause. enjoy the absolute wreck of thought whipping along down the line, a confused mess of i searched for You for months and i prayed, i prayed for Your help and received no answer and have You been here all along? but what he says is... ]

Are you Him?

[lovesskeeball]

[She's patient, waiting for him to collect his thoughts. Castiel has so many questions, so many doubts and She finds herself wanting to wrap Her arms around him in comfort. But She doesn't.]

In a sense. I'm Him but not the one of your world.

[ it is his Father but it isn't, and castiel is unsure of how exactly to take that. his Father is still m.i.a. but... ]

It is...good to see you. Regardless.

[ i missed you, what he wants to say but the words stick in his throat because castiel has ever been awful at expressing such sentiments. ]
