Summary: After Castiel declares himself god, he's determined to capture Dean's love by any means necessary.

I don't know about this one. I wanted to like it, and liked quite a lot of it, but overall ended up a bit confused and frustrated. I can always do with more "God!Cas is fixated on getting Dean to love him" (unlike, say, "Cas, God or otherwise, keeps Dean in a happy artificial bubble while in reality the world burns and possibly Sam is dead", which I'm a bit burned out on). And I liked how it starts, with Sam waking up in a strange place, *again*, and how we gradually find out what's going on for both him and Dean. However each section is told out of order (check the right hand side for the numbering - I missed that at first), and I don't know how much that added to the story. Some of it, yeah, but the placement of some of the sections just seemed random. I'm normally pretty good with stories told out of order, but with this I felt like I was being made to expend too much effort for no particular reason ( ... )

sa

A couple of misused words ("pouring over the library", "ruins" instead of "runes", I think). No "his angel".

I couldn't see the pictures in disbil's art post for some reason, probably on my end. The style of the drawing in daeos's post isn't really my thing so I can't judge, but I expect others will like it.

Thank you for this, nonnie! As a dark D/C and D/A nonnie I should enjoy this at the id level for sure. I wouldn't have noticed the numbering, actually, oops.

"God!Cas is fixated on getting Dean to love him" (unlike, say, "Cas, God or otherwise, keeps Dean in a happy artificial bubble while in reality the world burns and possibly Sam is dead", which I'm a bit burned out on).

I hate to ask, but where are all of these?? I like the former better but I can't seem to find Godstiel fics to save my life, so I'd read the latter, too.

ayrt

I'm afraid I'm not an organised reader at all, so I can't point you in the right direction, sorry. Just the last one, which was "Come Morning Light", from the last FD post (in case you haven't seen it).

I don't disagree with the nonnie who said that this one was nicely written with the reveal of what's actually happening, but my main response was "Yeah, I've read this story before. Often".
