Summary

They are nothing like the men he knew, and yet, from time to time, the light is right or their expressions shift in such a way. They act generously, or out of anger, out of tenderness, out of guilt. They grill or drive to work or rake the yard while Castiel watches, and for a long second he is in front of Lisa Braeden's house again, watching red leaves turn into piles. Watching Dean shake open plastic trash bags and fill them and take them to the curb. Wishing he could speak, and not speaking. Saying nothing. Turning away. Sometimes, Castiel thinks what he is really looking for, is punishment.

(Future fic, assuming an alternate ending to season 8.)
