    Summary

    The briefing was simple: ‘Stand guard over the Michael Sword until the battle is ready to commence. Await further instructions.’

    Castiel doesn’t mind working security duty; he was briefed shortly after the initial salvation of the Sword from the pit, and again before taking up his position. He knows what to do. However, it’s easy to forget that the green room isn’t real. Time moves differently there, the space ever-changing to make a prison of mountains, cathedrals, salt flats, orchards, and whatever Castiel was led to believe about Heaven’s greatest weapon—Dean Winchester is something entirely unexpected.

    Summary

    You won’t be able to stop me, Dean thinks into the silence. Just take me, please, take me instead—

    EYE FOR AN EYE, says the Empty.

    Dean is on his knees in his bedroom, elbows on his mattress like he thought he might pray.

    The voice fills Dean’s mind as slowly as cold oil, and drips down the back of his neck.

     

    TOOTH FOR A TOOTH.

     

    *

    Dean makes a deal.

    Summary

    If you lived next door to the Winchester family in 1993, would you call Child Protective Services?

    (For the 2010 summergen prompt by innie_darling: a case in an urban setting- Philadelphia or New York would be especially appreciated (modern or past is up to you).)

    Summary

    “What I want most isn’t sex, Dean. I want—I want you to love me. That’s my greatest desire. And you—you can’t give it to me, Dean. Not the way I want it. Not the way I love you.”
    The words are soft, vulnerable, and it feels as if the very room has been transformed into a homemade confessional, because this is Cas confessing his dearest secret to Dean—again, always again—and this is Dean on the other side, not knowing how to respond. Heart racing, Cas’s figure blurring with his tears. This is the bunker dungeon all over again, with death knocking on their door, and this is Cas dying, again, because Dean is too afraid to give him what he wants.

    OR

    Post-finale, after Jack rescues Cas from the Empty and brings him back to Earth as a human, Cas and Dean have yet to talk about his confession. Dean's avoidance of the subject was working perfectly—up until a routine hunt in which a witch curses Cas to die within 24 hours unless his greatest desire is fulfilled. Seems like they have some talking to do, after all.
