#imagine being Cas at this moment though#it’s the first time in a vessel in thousands of years #all that might and grace seeping out of human skin #the lights burst around him but he pays it no mind #he can tell them where every sigil they’ve scrawled originated from and ways they could improve their work #he is so much knowledge and power #and he’s here on his mission to talk to the righteous man #the man he saved from perdition #and ugh baby you just don’t even know how radically he will change your existence #after eons of living #it will take this one human man to turn everything on it’s head #and for him #you will be the exception to every rule he has #you will be the best friend he’s ever had#and you two just have no idea what’s coming for you #and I will still be telling your story and its beauty when I am old and grey (via badwolfintheimpala)
but imagine Cas’ UTTER CONFUSION in this moment too - because Dean is the RIGHTEOUS MAN - Heaven has been bigging Dean up into this proper valiant hero or whatever - enough that Cas just takes it as a given Dean will naturally be able to hear his true voice being such a special Heaven endorsed snowflake - only Dean CAN’T - and not only that, he spends all his time running away from Cas and then makes a rookie mistake of getting a psychic to try and look at Cas’ true form - and Cas thinks ‘huh this is all very odd and not especially ‘righteous man’-like, but oh well I’ll just get a vessel and we’ll have all this confusion cleared right up’ - except the exact opposite happens! - because Dean is a disbeliever who scoffs at the very IDEA of Heaven and angels and has NO faith even in himself - and that last bit is the most fascinating - that the RIGHTEOUS MAN should think so little of himself as to practically consider himself a monster - and yet THIS is the man Heaven has told Castiel is to be their saviour?? - oh Cas bb your world started turning on its axis from the very INSTANT Dean Winchester entered it
