    Summary

    Castiel was entrusted with the most sacred mission: protect the Michael Sword, the Righteous Man, until he can be of use to Heaven in the war against Lucifer….

    Castiel thought he’d known what to expect when given orders to protect ‘the vessel’. He was a warrior, a commander, and most importantly, he was personally chosen by Michael. He was unafraid. He was ready.

    He was wrong.

    Slavery AU: Cas POV remix of Louder Than Words, from when he fell from Heaven to just past the end of LTW. Book 2 of 4. (Please note: Dean/Cas is the endgame, but does not happen while Dean is below the age of consent.)

    Title inspired by: Louder Than Words from Tick, Tick… Boom!, and Endless Night from the Lion King

    Summary

    Castiel was entrusted with the most sacred mission: protect the Michael Sword, the Righteous Man, until he can be of use to Heaven in the war against Lucifer. He willingly fell to Earth, with the knowledge that he would be captured, enslaved, and eventually fall into the possession of the Righteous Man’s father. He was not prepared for what that would entail, and the horror he would be forced to face at his master’s hands.

    When Dean was seven, Dad went on a hunting trip, and came back with a bound, beaten man in a tan coat who suddenly went everywhere with them. His job, Dad explained, was going to be protecting Dean and Sam while Dad was away hunting.

    At first, Dean doesn’t understand why the man stays around just to basically babysit them... until one terrible day he does: it’s not that Castiel won’t leave, it’s that he can’t — and after that, nothing will ever be the same.

    Slavery AU — goes from Dean’s childhood to early adulthood, and the friendship he builds with the angel his father enslaved. Book 1 of 4.

    Please note! Dean/Cas is the endgame, but does not happen while Dean is below the age of consent.

    Summary

    Maybe the reality is that he clings too much. Maybe he’s too desperate and sometimes, that makes him unkind. Sometimes, he’s rough, because it’s purgatory, because every godforsaken monster wants Cas, wants his angel who’s had the misfortune of being stranded here with him, so he snaps. So he says, Hey, Cas, get the fuck over here, if Cas strays too far. He says, Damn it, Cas, if Cas takes a step too deep into the woods without him, and then he yanks, takes the angel by the hand, brings him closer and closer, and with hands on Cas' hips, he guides him.

    And then eventually, the true hunger of purgatory gets to Dean.

    Summary

    Demons made them do it. Dean's left to pick up the pieces.

     

    Sam is more painful to take in. Whereas Castiel was bruised and beaten, Sam is simply broken. He's curled in on himself, his expression anguished — shattered. Considering Sam's (albeit shaky) religious beliefs, being forced to desecrate an angel is probably one of the worst things that could happen to him. Horror sinks low into Dean's stomach and settles into an impossibly heavy stone. Dean has never seen Sam so devastated before — not even after Jessica's death. Sam has lost himself. He's lost the last bit of faith he had reserved in his own humanity and the purity of his soul. Sam doesn't realize that Castiel wasn't the only victim of rape today.
