14,700 words // T // Dean/Cas, implied past Dean/OMC

Cas is gonna become a hunter. According to Dean and Sam, that means he needs to learn how to efficiently dispose of dead bodies. Cas is good at it, since he can use his power to help out when he needs to, but he comes to learn that ‘being useful’ doesn’t always mean having a shovel in his hand or angelic spark in his fingertips. Sometimes it just means sticking around instead of leaving.
(Basically, monsters die and it’s a backdrop for Dean and Cas being uncommunicative and holding hands. Alternative canon from season 4/5 era through to season 9.)
