    Summary

    Grace, question?

    His tone is patient, the chords of his words simplified so that I can definitely understand him without my laptop-translator-rig. See, he’s just considerate like that.

    No one in all the Earth Sci-Fi stories and movies tells you that the aliens will be kind.

    Another tap of his arm. Sad thoughts?

    “Sad thoughts.” I concede. No point lying to someone who can hear your heartbeat.

    Hm.

    I’m proud of myself for identifying the note as a thinking sound, a filler word. I gotta say, my foray into exolinguistics has been an excellent distraction from the general misery that is my now-mostly-remembered-life.

    Do you want to talk about it?

    Some overdue conversations . Time spent together on the way back to Erid re-opens some old (and some fresh) wounds.

    Summary

    Dean’s your typical half-orphaned, monster-killing 22-year-old until a trenchcoated stranger crashes into his back windshield one September night, claiming he’s an angel that knows him from the future and that he’s on the run.

    Frigging fantastic.

    (Or, in which Castiel gets stuck in Dean’s timeline preseries and Dean kind of hates it—until he doesn’t.)

    Summary

    Dean doesn't even get halfway through explaining before Bobby starts laughing. When he lets himself think about it for more than five seconds, Dean can almost see Bobby's point: he's faced down demons, witches, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, angels, and Satan himself and now he's been defeated by the God damn Midwest.
