Summary: A man wakes up in a ruined wasteland, without memories, without a name, without knowing the strange guy who claims he used to be an angel, or that he once had a little brother. All he knows is that the world is dying, everyone is lying to him and that somehow, somewhere, something went terribly wrong. Because someone said Yes when they should have said No, and someone else paid the price.

Masterpost

He finds himself thinking, suddenly, of his brother (and then he thinks of Adam and wonders why it still doesn’t feel like it’s the same thing).

Outsider's POV stories are very difficult to do, but I'm sure you'll nail it!! These kind of stories are always a challenge for readers to deduct from what the person is seeing and thinking what is really what's happening! So it's very interesting!!!

And really, I only asked for a sequel but now when you said 'further stories' I realized that a "'verse" means a lot more!!! The possibilities are endless! and I'n so anticipating the dealing and consequences in all the characters (I really hope Cas makes his appearence again someday and gets confronted with what he did).

Seriously, you've made me a very very happy girl!!

In the stories I have in mind, Cas is a constant, but not easily accepted part of the boys' lives. He's trying, but calling Dean overprotective wouldbe an understatement, and Sam, apart from being traumatised and suffering some long-therm consequences, understandably isn't that fond of angels anymore.

I actually planned another story first, which among other things would have explained what's wrong with Sam. Thing is, I didn't feel like writing it just now. Hence me being enthusiastic about 'verses. :P
It'll be written later.

Having said that, you have a lot of confidence in my writing. Me, not so much. But the outside pov offers an angle here I find interesting to explore. In the end, writing this fic before the explanatory one was also a conscious decision.
I can only hope it works.

Yep, that's me, 100% confident in your writting!! I'm not saying it's easy, but you're amazingly talented so I'm sure the final result will be awesome! I have yet to read anything written by you that I haven't absolutely loved to pieces!

Your confirmation of more Cas trying to make amends and the boys rejecting him has made me very happy. Cas is going to have work really hard!! (and hopefully kill Zachariach and another couple thousand angels as atonement).

I really want to know what's wrong with Sam, I always wondered what would be exactly the consequences (apart from the normal consequences of gang-rape, obviously), I don't think the supposed grace they were puttin into him would do any good....

But I'm a very patient person (I manage to never read spoilers, for example!). And specially when I know the wait is definitely worth it like in this case. So I will wait for this story and all the ones following!

I shall hurry up and finish this, then. Though, by schedule, I'm working on Great Blue World today. (I usually write at last a thousand words for that one every other day. Though I had to postpone that a lot lately in order to finish my big bang in time.) If I finish early, I can continue the fic for you. (But there'll be another thousand words for that tomorrow anyway. I write altenating by day, when I can.)

It's awesome to have such a supportive and patient reader! You have no idea how much I appreciate that!
