    Summary

    Cas sleeps with the light on.
    Not only that, but he leaves his laptop on, too - usually playing some scattered mixture of videos and shows, the voices overlapping and interweaving, completely unintelligible. He leaves the screen open, light and shadows slatting across his face as he sleeps, changing his dreams.
    He always dreams.
    ___________________________________________________________
    Cas can't sleep properly, so Dean comes to talk to him about it.

    Summary

    The question makes Dean uncomfortable. It makes every hair on his arms stick up in worry and hesitation. But he has to ask. He has to.

    Dean turns when they are far enough away from the war room. Alternate Dean stops with a neutral expression.

    Fear makes Dean’s mouth dry, makes his breath hitch for a beat. When it gets to be too much, he folds his arms as a coping mechanism.

    He exhales, “that tan jacket you had on...where’d you get it?”
