"Hear me, castai-oi -- my protector and my companion," he said, his hand outstretched, his wide eyes pleading. "Do not forget me."

Oh, oh my. This is absolutely... no, I'm sorry, I am completely without words. This is history and love, and such an original way of looking at Castiel's evolution, as a spirit that changes with time but stays constant nonetheless, tied to Dean by all the different forms of his name.

So much love for this. Really. ♥

Oh god, what she said, 'cause she's way better with words...this was epic, but for real, not just as a way of speech.
All of this is beautiful and so original and inspired, but the ending wraps it up in such a way that you look at it in a different light. I'll need to re-read it.
Just. Fantastic. I have no words.

Ah, thank you for saying that! I like making things with many layers going on at once, and I hope they hold up upon re-reading.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

Thank you for this! I'm sitting here smiling.

Oh, this is just PRETTY. And I mean that in a good way.

Oh, thank you, sweetie!! It's taken in a good way. :)

Oh, this was good! :) Beautiful - I enjoyed it. Poor Castiel though. :(

This is so beautiful, and graceful, and has a gentle sadness to it, and, um, also the sex scene is SMOKING hot. Guh. Really really wonderful.

Thank you so much for this comment, which made me beam and also *cracked me up*. So glad you enjoyed the story!

Kay, combining two things I love (history and this pairing), I'm just grinning over here. This was beautiful and sad and lovely and... have I said beautiful?

Very well done.

isosarei May 24 2009, 19:59:06 UTC

Oh, I'm pleased to hear you liked the history aspect. And beautiful... is good. :)

Thanks very much!
