    Summary

    Dean's a mer-dude (shut up, Sam, that's totally a word) who lives on the edge of the reef, far away from the mer-colony. He's not lonely: the hunting's better, he doesn't end up confused by anyone else's echolocating song, and he's got the cutest little clutch of clownfish as watch-fish for his ledge.

    And he's got Cas. Who might not be a mer, but he's something even better: a cecaelia, with eight clever octopus legs and an obsession with making sure that Dean gets to try all the treats the reef can offer.

    (Dean pays him back by teaching him to kiss. Cas never fails to collect.)

    Bobby claims that cecaelias don't mate. That they don't bond. That they don't form families. But that old sand dollar can mind his own business: Cas and Dean are just having a good time and clouding up the water together, after all.

    Right?
