Oh, criminy, Carol. This is, perhaps, one of my favorite bits you've written lately. Honestly. So subtle and poignant. Dang, woman.

Awesome! Poor Cas doesn't get much love from my readership, so it's nice to know that this story hit the right spot for you. Thanks! :)

Mmmm....as delightfully satisfying as magazines and chocolates and a kindly seatmate... :-)

Thank you! I figured it would help Cas's perspective, being down amongst the ordinary folk, letting Greyhound do the driving. :)

Cas on a bus fic!

I actually really like the idea that he's wandering around on buses just to keep the tablet safe, rather than stopping in one place where he might be found.

And I'm glad he's still on Sam and Dean's side!

I figure it's just one of those things Show threw out there, that they're not going to do *anything* substantial with. But it's SO much fun. A Celestial Being, going Greyhound - you gotta love that.

Glad you enjoyed it!

This is so sweet. I had no idea when I saw Castiel was one of the characters but this works so perfectly.

Thank you! It was a fun little piece to tinker with this morning - Cas riding a stinky ol' bus to... who knows where. :)
