Summary: Set after 5.20 'The Devil You Know.' It turns out Gabriel has more and better friends than he realised. Friends willing to do what ever it takes to bring him back - including manipulating a well-meaning, if somewhat naïve, Castiel. But perhaps the consequences, painful as they are and all the worse for playing out as the apocalypse nears its climax, are just the catalyst Dean and Cas need to admit their growing feelings for each other (and maybe even teach Gabriel a thing or two as well).
Written for the 2010
