The campfire flickered, casting long, jagged shadows against the ruins of a world ended in 2014. Castiel sat slumped, the scent of cheap alcohol and stale smoke clinging to his beige trench coat.

He forced a bitter, practiced smile, his voice cracking like dry earth under a scorching sun, masking the terror that vibrated in his chest.
