[ cas just shakes his head. of course it wasn't supposed to go this way. it was never supposed to go this way. but if it's one thing that cas has learned since meeting sam and dean, it's that things so rarely ever do go the way you envision. what's that human saying? the best laid plans of mice and men?
to this day, cas still doesn't have any idea what the mice have to do with it, but the point still stands. what happened.. there's no fixing it, and there's no use griping over it, either. cas will carry his regrets with him forever, but it's about time he started focusing on what's right in front of him. he's always been too pragmatic for his own good.
his brow furrows, though, once dean goes on. ]
I'm right here, Dean.
[ not lost, and not going anywhere. cas frowns in that sort of thoughtful way, his eyes hooded when he lifts them to dean's face. ]
And it wasn't for nothing. Don't cheapen it like that. We fought as hard as we could, and you know.. there's merit in that. To the very end, you gave it your all.
