Re: Gabriel + Dean + open = this is a mess guys
Now that Dean was far more settled, visibly calmer, it was easier for Castiel to be as well. He licked his constantly chapped lips and then gave a silent nod. The apology was… enough. His point had been made, listened to and understood. It was all he asked for, really.
"Okay," he said after a small pause. "Thank you." And he meant it.
