summary. (abridged by reccer) An angel’s fall from grace lands him in the body of a young Jimmy Novak as his soul departs. The process leaves Castiel with no memories of his celestial past; he knows himself only as Jimmy Novak, a sickly child whose overnight recovery is nothing short of miraculous. But as Jimmy’s life starts anew, Dean Winchester’s has all but ended. It’s under these circumstances that these two boys come together and forge a friendship that slowly develops into something more. But their path was never meant to be easy and fate eventually intercedes, thrusting them both into the roles they were always meant to play: the angel and the hunter. The Righteous Man and his Protector.
read this. This story left me weak in the knees. It's very, very long, but absolutely worth the time commitment, because HOT DAMN is it good. It's so gorgeously-written, and slow, and detailed, and exhaustively emotional, and sexy, and plotty, and twisty-and-turny, with an insanely hot Dean/Jimmy-Cas and the full, glorious cast of SPN characters. This fic does what the best AUs should do -- gives us radically different circumstances for the characters we know and love, and then shows us, lovingly, precisely, unerringly, how these beloved characters would be in this new world. They're different because the world is different, but they're the same, too. It's amazing.
Any Jimmy Novak or Castiel fan should not miss this one. TRUST ME.
