    Summary

    It’s the sun rising. It’s what he thinks as he’s walking back to the cabin, where Jack and Sam will pretend that his eyes aren’t swollen red, where they’ll pretend that they didn’t see him cry as hard as he did. But the great light that comes from behind him isn’t that. The fire that ignites from the heart of the pyre isn’t the goddamn sun.

    It’s Cas.

    (fix-it coda for 13.01 where Cas comes back because I miss him)

    Summary

    Cas is back from the Empty, human, and convinced that his relationship with Dean is unsalvagable. Can Dean get his shit together in time to prove otherwise?

    *

    Cas felt his heart racing as Dean approached.

    Then Dean’s arms were around him. Cas wanted to live forever in that moment of closeness.

    Which lasted all of four seconds.

    Dean drew away quickly, and Cas swayed on his feet, unbalanced.

    Dean gave him two pats on the shoulder.

    “Good to have you back, buddy,” he said, his voice flat and mechanical.

    Cas was dying all over again.

    Summary

    Dean drains his bottle of beer, sets it on the table and gets up, heading for the kitchen. Maybe to fetch another, maybe to leave. But Castiel doesn’t want him to go, doesn’t want to leave this conversation unfinished; he remembers his regret of just a few hours ago, that Dean had never known how he loved him.

    “Wait,” he says and gets to his feet as Dean passes by. They’re standing close – close enough that Castiel can feel the heat of Dean’s body, the vibrancy of his soul brushing against his grace. “Dean, I have to tell you something...”

    Set after the S11 finale.

    Summary

    Cas dies and Dean starts referring to himself as a widower. This is somewhat confusing for everyone involved.

    (Inspired by *that* tumblr post; linked in notes)
