   Summary

   Cas summons the Empty, but Dean doesn’t let him go alone.

   ///

   At one end of nothingness, Dean steps a foot forward.

   At the other, Castiel does the same.

   Rather than landing as expected, their feet seem to sink through the floor, carrying them along as if they were being pulled through quicksand, only for them to land right side-up again on the other side.

   At one end of something, Castiel blinks.

   At the other, Dean does the same.

   They’re separated by everything and nothing all at once, as is the Empty’s design. Simultaneously only a hairsbreadth away from each other and eons apart.
