That said, I really liked the arrangement. It had a sort of quiet desolation. I can just imagine Dean and Cas having moments like these, in the dark silence of a motel room. Your grip on Dean's mental state seemed very in character.

I also LOVELOVELOVE the way you managed to capture Dean's relationship to so many people in so few words:
- He thought back to times when he was a kid and he'd asked his dad whispered questions in the dark, but was always told to go back to sleep, don't worry about it...and he had always felt a little betrayed.
- Cas never gave him another explanation for why he was there, and he never bothered to ask, just accepted his presence as part of the team and left it at that. It didn't bother him though. Sometimes it got a little lonely when you thought you were the only one left awake in the world.
- Sam. As big as a tree, and as breakable as glass. His. His responsibility.
I read those and it was like YES this is EXACTLY how Dean relates to each one of these people. That line speaks VOLUMES about his relationship with John. And the strange comfort he and Cas have, being close while keeping a distance between them. And Sam. My God. That bit ( ... )

I love that people responded so well to this fic, especially since it was my first time writing these characters.
There's been so little explanation on the show in regards to angel's true forms and their relation to the vessels they choose, so I formed my own theory fairly early on, and I'm glad it agrees with you :D
Oh, bb. Thank you so much for this. I've been slightly discouraged about my writing lately, so it's good to hear I've done something right in the past that people actually like :) *smush* I LOVE YOU!
