Thank you very much! Oh, there was no way this one could be hard-edged :) I know why it makes me squishy happy; Sam needs comfort and affection, I think, and while Dean is capable of providing it, he does it in a way that's kind of... eh, how do I say it. He does it obliquely. Not with hugs, but with bottle clinks and shared looks, and letting Sam drive or pick their restaurant, or letting Sam talk about feelings, or ribbing Sam in playful, affectionate ways. Rarely openly; no chick-flick moments. And Sam needs that kind of stuff, don't get me wrong. But I feel like Castiel is sincere and open about things, and inasmuch as he could provide physical comfort, he would do it happily with no pretense, and Sam could relax into it without wondering when he's going to be dumped onto the floor, lol.

Wow, speech! haha

Thanks! :)
