Supernatural fic - "Reasons, Caution" tags to 4.17 and previews for 4.20

[joyeee]

Why fic for previews: I thought it'd be relatively harmless to watch the previews several days before I'd get to watch the episode itself. I was very wrong.

Title: Reasons, Caution
Rating: PG13
Spoilers: up to and including previews for 4.20 "The Rapture"; NOT including 4.20 itself.
Warning: AU - the previews tag doesn't go along with the reason

You need to do more of these. LOTS MORE.

Absolutely adored the idea that it was Castiel who came up with the trick in 4.17, and that this time round it wasn't Heaven but the traitors that dragged him away. I do like to think it was something along those lines, I don't really see Castiel fighting his superiors, but if he was fighting rebels that would certainly explain the state of the place they found Jimmy!

Oh, and extra bonus points for the way you wrote Zachariah, arrogant, contemptuous but still loyal. That's the impression I got of him in 4.17, and I hope he does turn out to be a good guy despite his extreme asshole status ^_^

[joyeee]

Hee, thank you so much for the encouragement! :D :D :D Zachariah is quite ambiguous, but yep, that's how I see him so far!

Like you, I don't see Castiel fighting superiors... unless, for example, he thought they were traitors. (Bah, don't those angel higher-ups REALIZE how deeply faithful Castiel is?!)

On the other hand, unreasonable angelic superiors who use excessive force, enough to destroy the building, just to catch Castiel - even if Castiel doesn't resist... mmm, I sense whump/injustice/angst/ in the air. ^______^

These are both really good. Interesting look at Castiel and his relationship to the other angels.

[joyeee]

Thanks! :D Very glad you liked them ~

Oh... oh, wow. I really like the way you've presented Castiel, through the eyes of others he interacts with. And I'm massivelyinterested in the spin you had on the 4.20 preview. I hope there's more to that, because I want to see what you'd do with the fact that Dean heard Castiel screaming. That Castiel turned in the traitors, at the risk of himself.

Oooh! You have me all bouncy with the possibilities!

[joyeee]

I'm so glad you liked the presentation of Castiel through other characters' viewpoints! Especially Dean's! :D I wasn't going to continue because I already felt a little silly for writing AU fic for a few seconds of previews, but now...I think I can write this so it merges back with the show, at least as far as 4.20. With, um, MORE injustice and angst and so forth! XD Thank you so much, your interest is fueling mine! XD
