When Dean found himself absently touching the handprint scar on his shoulder, he gave in and called out to Castiel…

UNF. That is such a kink of mine, you have no idea. And lovely h/c. God I’d love to see Dean caring for Cas like this on Show. I mean - we know he does. Don’t get me wrong: I love BAMF!Cas. But… it saddens me that the D/C relationship might be sacrificed still further on the altar of the brotherly bond. I love that Dean has someone outside of Sam. I just wish we got to see more evidence of it. I love how they’re both sorta skirting the elephant in the room [the epic love story of Dean and Cas!!] in this chapter. :-D

I am so miserably unhappy about the pithy amount of Castiel this season, I can't even begin to tell you. Course, it doesn't help matters that all the way back in the 4th season I started to only watch SPN for Castiel. I had my fill of the Emochesters (or Whinechesters, take your pick).

I don't remember which fic it was (and I should, because it was my own), but I once said of Dean that he 'really shines as the caretaker', and I get all warm and fuzzy inside when Dean lets that out with Cas. Love reading it, and definitely loved writing it.

Why?... why something remotely similar to this can't happen in the show?... why?... (*sighing sadly*)

Sorry, I promise you a decent comment later on, right now I need to keep reading.

I feel your pain... I really do. Stupid show screwing up my Dean/Cas friendship.

“Jesus,” Dean muttered.

“Had nothing to do with it,” Cas said into the pillow

Haha, I loved this! I say it all the time, but I didn't think an angel would use the same line. :)

Poor Cas...I hope Dean can fix this...

On a more useful note, you're REALLY good at writing. I'm so glad there are twenty more chapters of this to read!

You gotta love how adorably literal Castiel is :)

And thanks! I hope you still have the same opinion in 20 chapters ;)

I never thought he'd come when Dean called himXD
Next, next next^___^

I had a field day beating up on Cas in this fic... and it was glorious! mwa ha ha!

you know what is sad. That FF writers can get the Characters better of a show than the writers who get paid to do it. And sometimes Sera just seems to think that our worries and demands as fans does not concern herself because we all just want some schmoopy porny Slashfest. But it isnt. I want what you wrote there. ITs IN Character! And the chapters could make lovely little scenes. I mean what would it take? 2 till 5 minutes top? Just a bit more Dean and Cas scenes. Just a bit more Caring from Deans side. You never made it like Deans some girly teenager whos heart stops beating cause Cas is so ho/Beautiful whatever. No He is concerned about his FRIEND! That dean doesnt know yet he loves cas is another matter ^^. I would have loved if Cas came in season six more often to his safe haven dean. It would make scense! Dean was the one who Cas found his faith in. Who pointed out a third way. Freedom. And I loved the Idea of that Vessel. Honestly for me I think Jimmy left Castiels body as Raphael killed them. and all that little things with ( ... )

P.S. and why does everybody think that more Dean and Cas means less Dean and Sam? ITs not. You dont need to sacrifice Cas for the cause of the Winchesters. Actually its the opposite. Save Cas cause he is something good. He makes the winchesters happy. Both of them. Dean loves him for all he did for him. That he believed in him when even his brother and Dean himself thought him to weak to do it. Cas still believed that Dean could do it. as a stranger. as someone who is not bonded by blood or obligation. Cas could have had a pretty neat live if he didnt rebelled.

I don't get that either, because this is DEAN. He'll never not have Sam all tangled up in his life, no matter what. And you know what... Cas is someone who could actually deal with that. If Dean tried to bring absolutely anyone else into their weird little club, it wouldn't work. No semi-normal person can handle the epic gordian knot that is the Winchesters, but a socially awkward angel... no problem.

I have frequently made note of the fact that there are a lot of fic writers out there who write the characters better than the canon team does these days. And I think ‘if fans get it, how the hell is the writing staff so off the mark?’ Very frustrating! I think most television suffers from a lack of guts. Not in the big story arches - like doing the end of the world - but in recognizing where a character is taking itself and GOING WITH IT. Case in point, S5 when Dean was so pissed at Sam… totally didn’t feel right. It’s like the writers decided ‘Dean’s going to be unforgiving on this’, but the problem: the past 4 seasons went to so much trouble making this Dean that would forgive his little brother ANYTHING, but did the writers listen to that? No. They were adamant Dean would be pissed at Sam, so they go and FORCE it, and it felt it. I feel the same way with Dean/Cas. Those two have been heading down one path, and it’s like someone in the writing room lifted their head up, saw the unexpected destination the characters were ( ... )
