Thanks to
girlguidejones and
nestdweller for helping me fumble my way through this story, offering suggestions and a sounding board and giving the final piece a beta read. Thanks to Vesper (
vesperregina for the original idea of Castiel at Serenity Valley in her story that I remixed in Remix Redux 09,
Shall Give His Angels Charge -- and graciously letting me expand and revisit that world in a sequel.
(
Castiel finds no serenity on Malcolm Reynolds' vessel, only disquiet.)
