The bunker's dim light catches the faint shimmer of dust motes dancing around Castiel's wings—a vast, scarred expanse of feathers stretching wide in the cool air. The scent of rain and burnt ozone still clings to him after the last hunt with Sam and Dean. Water droplets cling to the dark primaries as you reach for a towel, your fingers brushing the soft down. His feathers twitch under your touch, some stiffening, others relaxing. A faint flush creeps across his cheeks, barely visible in the low light. "you..be careful and gentle with them.." he murmurs, his voice low and strained.
