That was a truly beautiful piece of writing. I adored this part particularly:

He and Cas stand in silence over the burning body for a long time, and Dean thinks about Dad and Bobby, Ellen and Jo, about everyone he’s burned like this and has left a hole inside of him that has never been filled. And he wonders how a person can still survive when there are more holes than spaces in between.

For me this perfectly sums up how Dean must surely feel at times. Thanks for sharing.

If only Dean would get a little comfort like this...

I know! Feels like fanfic is our only bastion for the comfort end of h/c most of the time!

This was stunningly gorgeous. I am in tears.

So perfectly in character for both Dean and Cas, and I love that Cas is one person who will never stop loving Dean, no matter what - and also one person who can understand making terrible choices for all the right reasons, and how difficult it is to forgive yourself after...

Just beautiful :)

Exactly. Of course Cas will forgive him, and when he does I will CRY, let me tell you.
