comment_ficHeya, folks, seasons greetings and all that crap. It be Friday, so we get some room to play today! The sky is the limit, as it were, except for a few rules we need to just remind y'all about:
NO spoilers in prompts for at least one week after airing. Also, if your response contains spoilers, please warn for them and leave at least 3 empty lines before starting your fic.
Also, to make sure everyone gets a chance to prompt... no more than five prompts in a row, no more than 3 per fandom. You can always come back and prompt more after yours have been answered.
Please remember to be kind to you code monkeys (who work hard at a job that is time consuming) and code your prompts properly (fandom, pairing, prompt).
Examples:
Numb3rs, Colby/Charlie, The first time Colby called him "Professor"
Criminal Minds/Leverage, Reid/Eliot, "It's getting hot in here..."
Don't see anything that whets your appetite? Check out our lonely prompts archive here on delicious for some amazing ideas that just haven't been given homes yet.
Also, gird your loins, because next week is the start of yet another Quarterly Year Challenge, where we give you no prompts but instead offer lovely prizes to get you to write some of the prompts piling up in our archives.
Ready? Prompt!

Date: 2009-12-11 11:05 pm (UTC)Castiel had argued with him. He'd tried so hard to sway him. But Dean had made his decision. And now the man walking back through those doors, a building collapsing behind him, was not Dean.
"Michael," he said, bowing his head in respect and more than a little fear. Castiel had prevented Michael from taking hold of his vessel, and in the meantime, how much carnage he'd caused. His shame was only matched by dread of Michael's inevitable revenge.
"Castiel." Dean's voice, but the low, majestic tone was not Dean's. It broke Castiel's heart a little to hear. "Thank you, brother. I knew you would do the right thing."
"What?" Dark eyes darted upward.
"You've followed the truest inclination of your soul, and it is because of you that this moment has come. My brother has been--"
And behind him, another figure emerged. C seized up. "He's-- he's still--"
"Alive, yes," said the voice of Lucifer through the mouth of Sam. "Alive and safe, and no longer cursed with a hatred that consumed me for millennia."
"I don't--"
"It was being inside these vessels, you see, that was the key to everything," Michael said. "These two who have fought themselves and each other, but who would still give their lives-- any number of times-- to save this world. We needed to know that feeling. To experience it first-hand."
"To know," Lucifer said, "what our Father saw in them."
"And for that, they had to be themselves, proud and entirely human," Michael said. "You preserved them that way for us. And thus this world will be preserved."
"I don't understand," Castiel said, wild-eyed. "You wanted me to keep them safe from you?"
"Until the very end, yes. So they could save us."
"Then--" A suspicious glance at Lucifer. "Raphael was right? You did raise me?"
"No," Michael said. "That was me. And now I will give you whatever reward you desire, Castiel. My most faithful brother."
For the first time, certainty settled across Castiel's face. He set his jaw. "Then," he said, "I want Sam and Dean back."
