FACE TO FACE
WOW: climb and empty. Castiel contemplates his first visit to the Empty.
Disclaimer: I don't own him.

Castiel had heard so much about the Empty. That it was dark, silent, soulless, depressing, despairing, hopeless, eternal… the list went on, and none of it was good.
But now that he was here, the one word that crossed Castiel's mind was boring.
Or at least it had been boring, like absolutely mind-bogglingly tedious, until he met 'The Entity'.
Castiel was used to people being grumpy when they were first woken up. Dean, for instance, took obnoxiously grumpy to an art form until he'd had his first caffeine, and then he became his usual delightful self. But this Entity dude honestly made bleary, uncaffeinated Dean look like My Little Pony.
Castiel couldn't help but think the Entity was overreacting. Okay, so Castiel had been wandering around yelling at the top of his voice, but way to labour the point; there wasn't exactly a reception desk here.
Eventually, Castiel had decided that if he irritated the Entity enough, that would give him the opportunity to climb out of this place, if he didn't get kicked out first. He was starting to get sick of the Entity's moaning and – well – as for the whole 'wearing his face' thing, that alone was worth pissing the guy off beyond belief.
Arguing with himself was far too trippy for Castiel's liking. Plus, Castiel thought, his hair wasn't that messy … was it?
