Author’s Notes: I'd like to thank dazedrose for the sheer volume of work, effort and enthusiasm she put into this reverse bang, I loved the original art and concept from the moment I read it and I think we both have a massive soft spot for post-7x17 Castiel. Working with her was an absolute pleasure! I'd also like to thank my beta verucasalt123 who was a massive support, especially when I was pulling my hair out and thinking I was the insane one! This fic wouldn't be half what it is without her!
