I don't understand why you're fighting me, of all the angels.

He had known his brother was right. He was always right, in the end. He wondered if it had anything to do with being the older one.

But it didn't matter. What mattered was that he had been right.

I rebelled, I was cast out, you rebelled, you were cast out. Almost all of Heaven wants to see me dead and if they succeed guess what? You're their new public enemy number one.

He knew that had been true. Everything his brother had said that day had been true. So why not? Why the hell not give into reason? Because that was all he had done, really. He had finally seen the logic his brother had been using. Why hadn't he seen it before, really?

We're on the same side, like it or not, so, why not just serve your own best interests which in this case just happen to be mine.

Of course he had been right. They were on the same side. It would be best if he just sided with his brother. And if they lost, well, at least he would be away from the pathetic, suicidal mess he called his friend.

And to think he had said he would die before he let this happen. How stupid of him.

Castiel. You have a while to think. To change your mind.

Of course he had ended up changing his mind. After all, why not? His brother's side was the favorable side, naturally.

He smiled at his brother and did as he was told, going to gather up the demons and deposit them into the place they needed to be for the next step of the Apocalypse. He worked quietly and obediently under his brother. There was nothing keeping him there. He knew he could leave if he wanted to. Go back to his 'friends' any time he wanted. But he didn't want to. He was right where he wanted to be.

And if Lucifer lost, if Michael destroyed him, or if Sam and Dean trapped him back into his cage, Castiel knew that he would jump right in along with him.


...Oh come on. It's either this, or he's up in Heaven serving as Michael's bitch. And between the two, I think I prefer this. Because while I'm a hard Destiel shipper, Casifer is a fun guilty pleasure.
