Prompt: Any, Angels don't need to yell.
Once, wherever he was in the cosmos, Castiel could hear his brothers and sisters. They were connected by Heavenly Grace, mind-to-mind and spirit-to-spirit, all God's children and soldiers and power.
Merely thinking an angel's name brought him to their presence, wherever in the cosmos they might be.
But now Castiel is out-of-reach. He cannot hear Heaven's song or his brothers and sisters voices. They could be screaming for help or cursing his name, and he would not know. Does not want to know.
Dean and Sam do not yell for him anymore. Instead, they call him on the telephone, a small contraption of electricity and plastic they taught him to use.
Wherever he is in the cosmos, Castiel hears that phone ring. Only the Winchesters have the number, and he will always answer their call.
