Aw, that was sweet, and not too sweet. Sam's need for Castiel's approval comes across in a wonderful quiet way here, and I love the forehead kiss and what that means to Sam.

[maychorian]

Oh, that's just what I was hoping for, sweet but not too much. Sam and Castiel have had so very little interaction in the show, but there's not a lot of potential for interesting stuff there, with Sam's now-shaky faith and his possible destiny, and Castiel's compassion, as well as his sternness. Thank you!

This one made me get all teary-eyed.

Thank you, my dear! I worry about Sam, I really do. He could use this kind of blessing, so much.

aw, lovely.

[maychorian]

Thank you! ♥

Aww, just lovely. I'm glad Castiel realized that Sam might miss him too.
Also, I adore this part: "They were all mirrors, Sam thought suddenly. Mirrors reflecting light back on each other, seeing it in each other and unable to see their own. And so Sam saw the truth of Dean even when his brother felt only darkness, and Castiel saw the gleaming in them both and did not think of his."
That is so true!

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed my little mental ramble, too.

Lovely. Yes, Sam, you are a pussy to be missing the kid so much :) But we love you for it.

Liked the "light" references and the mirrors reflecting that light. Sweet without being too too much.

[maychorian]

Hee! Sam is such a sweetheart.

Thank you!
