Chapter Text
Every human, at birth, is assigned a guardian angel.
Or rather, every angel is assigned a human to be the guardian of. Some angels have multiple humans to watch over, generally families if that is the case.
The angel’s job is to watch over that human. Every human has a purpose, from the second they are conceived, that God gave to them. It was the duty of the angel to see that the human lives out their purpose, to send them occasional brainwave ideas when they were stuck on what to do in their life, to form a chain of events that would give them motivation to continue. They can accomplish this in several ways. Certain angels will choose to simply watch over their human and be a lingering presence, but not one that is visible. Other angels will take a more forward approach and insert themselves into their lives as a friend of the person, but will not reveal their true identity. It depends on the nature of the angel and the feelings of the human. Whatever works to keep the humans in check. Of course, the angels are all aware that every human must die at some point; the point of the angels is not to keep the human alive for as long as possible, it is to make sure that they follow the plan that was created for them.
However, plans are not always set in stone, and even angels are not always perfect.
This story tells of three angels who were perhaps imperfect in their duties, but perfect for the humans they were assigned to be the guardian of. Their names are Castiel, Gabriel, and Avriel. Castiel chose to bond with his human, Dean Winchester, once Dean made a fatal mistake in fulfilling his purpose in life. The two were now firm friends, and had been for nine years, ever since Castiel pulled Dean out of hell. Gabriel had been assigned Dean’s brother, Sam Winchester, and had originally meant to never involve with him directly. However, Gabriel’s nature was often too much for him, and the kind of fun he had convinced Sam and Dean that he was one of the monsters they needed to kill. Gabriel had narrowly escaped that one, and even though Sam and Dean knew his true identity, he still remained distant from them both. Neither of the Winchesters had seen Gabriel for the best part of 8 years. Sam still thought of him sometimes, but what could he do? Gabriel was unreachable all the time he chose to keep himself distant. Castiel was ever present in his human’s life, and Gabriel was totally absent in his.
Avriel, well. Avriel started a band with his.
