Castiel goes up against something way bigger than he is. And it's not even to protect Sam or Dean--just some random civilian. The Winchesters see it, though.

"Holeeeeey shit," swears the drunk guy at Sam's left. "Wouldja look at that."
They're in Oklahoma, land of the tornado and home of the wheat; Sam kind of likes how, on the open road, he can see for miles in any direction. They're not far from the place where the Impala's odometer rolled over from 999999.9 to 000000.0, before Sam went to Stanford. Sam's never forgotten it because he remembers thinking how many people can say they've traveled a million miles and still not gotten anywhere.
But anyway, it's a bar like a thousand other bars, and Sam's used to ignoring drunk people (including his brother), but when the bartender says, "What the hell is that?" in a shocked voice, he finally looks up at the television.
"Oh my god," Sam says, and fumbles for his phone.
"Man, I wouldn'ta fight one o' those in m'nightmares," slurs the drunk guy. "Tha'dude is crazy."Yeah, yeah, I'm watchin' it," Dean says, grabbing the clicker and flipping to the news. As a rule Dean doesn't watch the news, 'cause it's depressing as hell and it's all the

Instantly there is a huge spray of water; it bowls the manticore over, and it roars, furious. Castiel watches with his arms hanging at his side in that awkward 'I don't know what to do with these limbs' way he has

Hooray! I read the prompt and thought, how would Sam&Dean see Castiel fighting something and not join in? And then I thought, television. And hey, another excuse to have Castiel using his sword! I also enjoyed writing about Team Free Will all interacting with one another without being in the same place. :)
*blushes* I'm glad you've enjoyed all my fic; it's been a real pleasure to write for this meme, and to read all the other fantastic contributions. This was just what I needed. So thank you for the excellent prompt(s) and the excellent meme!
this is what gabe had to say about itvikkiApril 2 2010, 03:15:04 UTC
DON'T ARCHIVE THIS MAY SERIOUSLY IDEK. Also, tuesday, when do you get the episode of SPN that was on tonight? Because holy fuck, Kripke really wants me to write this zach/cas fic.

This is how Castiel got himself killed: he stole the remote control.
No, really.
See, the night the last seal on Lucifer's prison was broken, there was a lot going on - Zachariah was gloating about how his plan was working perfectly, Raphael was pissed about being stuck on guard duty, Anna was plotting her revenge in the brig, and Michael was watching TV.
TV in Heaven is way more awesome than TV on Earth; it gets every channel that was, every channel there is, and every channel there will be, and it's like the ultimate TiVo machine. It also gets 24-hour-news everywhere in the world, because you've gotta have coverage like that if you're gonna claim to be the Agents of Fate. (Hilarious!) I've modded my set to do basically the same thing, except the news part, because that's just boring.Anyway, so Michael was tuned into the St. Mary's Sam Getting

HEEE ILU TOO MARRIAGE IT IS ♥ I CERTAINLY DON'T MIND IF YOU REC THIS IN YOUR REVIEW BUT I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'LL WANT TO AFTER YOU WATCH IT. OUCH.
Don't get too excited: Zach and Cas don't actually interact. I'm reacting to the new twist in Zachariah's characterization. But holy crap, basically everything I've posited about Zachariah's nature for the fic has been proven utterly true.
Re: this is what gabe had to say about itvikkiApril 2 2010, 05:40:29 UTC
Tell me: Why can I write about zachariah doing horrible things to cas, but I can't watch zach kiss Mary up the arm? Because, holy crap. what the hell. Thanks, Show, I didn't need that, and neither did Dean.
Now I'm going to have to write the fic where Castiel takes that bad dream away from Dean like a million times over.
Re: this is what gabe had to say about itibroketuesdayApril 2 2010, 05:49:28 UTC
I don't know, but that was TOTALLY CREEPY. Maybe because she's Dean's MOM and she just stood there smiling about it. Whereas Cas, well, who doesn't like to see him get a good whumping?

"Hahaha! Manticore in Oklahoma City! Raphael, pass the popcorn."
"I can't wait to see what havoc this is gonna wreak."
"Yeah, it's awes -- wait, is that...?"

"It's Castiel! That fucking twerp!"
