[ cas can't help the heaviness of his sigh, and he drags a hand over his face in mild exasperation because dean did paint himself into a corner here with his own stubbornness and pride.
facing sam.. it's not easy, he knows, most especially for dean. with the history they've got, he can't blame dean for wanting to keep his distance even if, in all honesty, that's what fucked them in the first place. he's learned enough about the alternate timeline, where sam's from to know that they're stronger together, that keeping their distance had ultimately harmed them.
it's too soon to bring all that up, though. dean's still reeling with shellshock from home, he's still trying to find his footing in this new place, he doesn't have the capacity to even consider the possibility of mending things with sam. but it leaves them stuck like this, strangely apart and there's no fixing it if dean's not willing to stay here, and live in any kind of proximity with sam.
.. cas could leave, he knows. go to wherever dean is. and honestly, if dean would ask, he would, of course he would, because dean's his best friend no matter what, his leader and his confidante, and just because everything ended back home doesn't mean that cas will stop following him. but he's made friends here, he fits in well with his shipmates, likes them, likes the little space he's carved out for himself. ]
You know you can come by any time you want. I'm always gonna be around for you, Dean.
