So the first draft of this was written in the break between the 300th episode and the 301st so that is the exact moment where it picks up when Cas walks in at the end.

I would also like to say as a disclaimer and explanation to how long this took this was originally just a one shot of creative inspiration randomly written and released on the same day so if it takes me longer or if it is not as good sorry, but I am trying to work out what the hell I am doing with the storyline if I am actually going anywhere with it. Also despite my love for the set up for season 15 and painting god as not a good guy this is canon divergence and will definitely breathe normality into angels lives as much as you can when talking about angels so you can expect if I get far enough in that god will be introduced that he will not be the canon character we saw that as Castiel put it "it is not bad just the absence of good".

So anyways I have said my peace. Enjoy.

Castiel leaned into the hug from dean still not sure where it was coming from but promptly not giving a shit. Eventually he stepped out of the calming embrace looking at the beaten up state of the boys and raising his eyebrow as he had seen dean do before hoping it said 'now what's up' not 'I'm awkward and I don't know shit' which is apparently what everything I do looks like.

Though before the promised explanation for the state of the boys came his entire being started to light up and buzz with an energy that almost felt like when he came back to Dean, and Sam of course, it felt like family.

Then without any more warning there in front of him were being's so bright his out of work angel sight was temporarily blinded until he was able to get a grip enough to filter out some of the light the two undeniably archangels gave off to see they were not alone as the two archangels who could be not be mistaken for anything but identical twins were accompanied by a young child and woman who were definitely human even if the woman had been touched by god.

Though undeniably what was weirdest about them was not who was with them, or even the fact that every archangel was supposed to be either dead, in the cage or in dean. It was the fact that they looked less like angels do and more like jack because their grace was intertwined with the very cells of their bodies instead of occupying the same space like his own did. But despite that it was still undeniable that the twins before him where in fact archangels and not nephilim. They just had their own bodies.

The second they landed the twin wearing a custom high end suit who almost seemed to bleed regret, hurt, and distrust, definitely distrust. To be honest it was not dissimilar to how dean used to be. Anyways he stepped forward and enveloped me in a hug love, hope, regret, desperation, pride and fear seeping into me as he whispered "Cas" like the fact that I was alive and in front of him was the best gift in all of reality.

On the other hand, the other twin who was in a memorabilia t-shirt that mentioned god and the devil just kinda looked at me with such sadness and regret and self-blame as tears well in his ancient eyes, again reminding me of the boy's. Though what really got to me was the fact that both of them seemed so familiar. They felt like home.

Of course before I could really grapple with the unexplained familiarity of the unknown angels dean interrupted with his normal gung-ho attack the people who can snap me out of existence-ness as he growled "get away from Cas" leveling his gun at the suit wearing twin.

"Luci" came the quiet warning from the novelty tee wearing twin as 'Luci' stepped in front of me almost like he had to protect me from dean

Though before the angel could get any more threatening towards dean the god touched woman intervene "Lucifer don't obviously he is trying to protect him"

At that I was slightly lost and kinda checked out for a little bit as I watched almost from the outside as Dean and Sam both fumbled for a second before both shot him in the general vicinity of the heart only for the other twin to step forward and heal him in under a second as he took him back a little bit from where he had been standing right next to him and the one in the suit's "aww" rang across the bunker war room "that hurts".

After a second, it was obvious his brother was fine so the still yet to be named twin said smugly down at his brother who was now covered in blood "Told ya"

'Luci' as somehow I could not call him anything but Luci in my head stood up brushing himself off as he grumbled at his brother sarcastically "Yes Mikey, you are always right"

"But I was…" came the indignant and childish reply only for the two to be interrupted by the woman who was by now glaring at the two archangels "Ohh for your dad's sake, can you two please act your age."

"We are" came the chorus and that was the moment I just knew that I knew them and loved them, and more then that trusted them. As I continued to watch like I was not even there The woman who has still to be named was giving the worlds best you better explain yourself now look on the planet.

Luci then launched into a bullshit explanation which somehow despite not remembering it I just know that I have heard it before. Wait when did I learn to use the word bullshit anyways "We live up to about 50 million years and we are only roughly 5 million years old".*

Sam almost laughed despite his confusion, after all a gun shot had just harmed the man so could he actually be Lucifer, and the women's mumbled response was gold "I am dating a ten-year-old angel, great"

Then the child that the Winchesters had obviously not noticed yet bounded forward into his suddenly open arms "Lucifer, you're my age"

The instant change in the man was beyond obvious as he held the child brimming with pride as he smiled "yes, I am offspring. Yes, I am".

At this point Sam had had it with the lack of explanation and kind of exploded "okay who the hell are you and what are you doing here"

The angel still holding the human child as if she is his own looked at the hunter slowly smirking as if he had not realized he held all the cards in the conversation until that moment "Lucifer Morningstar at your service"

Although before either hunter could respond or Lucifer finish his thought because his much less formally dressed brother spoke up slightly confused "our last name isn't Morningstar, Luci". although what really stumped the brothers was how the angel had managed to sit down with his feet on the map table without them noticing.

Lucifer glared back at his brother presumably named Michael saying dangerously "yeah, well I changed it when dad banished me"

The twins then exchanged in a staring war for a few seconds that not even Dean was dumb enough to interrupt before Mikey subsided only to say "fine he's Lucifer Morningstar and I am Michael Rose."

Dean who despite seeing the man heal instantly flat out refused to admit these men were angels let alone the archangels they seemed to think they were mostly because angels did not have last names, they just didn't. Even Castiel was confused by that one although he felt he should. So Dean let out a loud chuckle and said "Your name was Lucifer Rose"

Both twins then looked at him like he had lost his head before saying in synchronized unison "no" like that was the dumbest conclusion ever.

Only then did the still unnamed women step forward and say as if she had to explain humanity to them often "Lucifer, that would be another thing that people don't understand" at his incredulous look she continued "You know, cause people don't, expect, Angel's to have last names"

To Sam it was evident that the fact that this man was the devil was not new but the more familial aspect too the angels life obviously was new especially as the man launched into a complaint about angel's not really having last names just his siblings the archangels. Although he didn't really listen because he was more caught up on the fact that Lucifer was A) alive and B) not trying to kill them as well as how Michael was there and not in the cage or in his brother, and on top of that there was a real officer of the law and a child acting almost like family to the man Lucifer.

Similarly, Cas was no longer able to pay attention but his was a very different problem as the pounding in his mind that had started at the arrival of the baffling Archangel twins slowly rose to a cacophony that he really could not focus on anything and slowly he felt his grip on consciousness slip away as he heard one of the now indistinguishable twins call out to him as strong arms caught him.

The echoing "Cassie" following him into the darkest recesses of his mind.

*Ps this is not my take on the existence of the world or how it came to be, nor am I trying to disprove your own thoughts on the manner, but this is a story. So yeah
