4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

Society if SPN had had the vision and the budget to do a real Angel trueform moment for Cas
Society if Dean had been able to perceive it without exploding and he was bashful about seeing Cas as a Chrysler-building-sized eldritch horror seraphim
Learned that Cassiel, the angel Castiel was based on, guards Saturn, so here are some headcanons that formed
-He and Agiel (the other seraph who guards Saturn) worked together to make it and its moons
-He’s also the guardian of one of the palaces of Heaven (unclear which one), so now in my headcanon each planet in the solar system has/is a gate to a subsection of Heaven.
-Castiel created the rings of Saturn by accident when he made a new moon too close to the planet and it got destroyed. Everyone thought they looked cool so they were allowed to stay
-The shepherd moons in the rings are like his zen garden
-He keeps making moons out of boredom and silent competition with whoever guards Jupiter. Moons Georg
-whatever the heck is going on with Janus and Epimetheus’ shared orbit was him putting them too close to each other and finding an unorthodox way of fixing it. The Virtues hate him for it. They draw straws whenever it’s time to make them turn around.
-His favourite moon is Enceladus and he likes to chill in the underground oceans when he wants alone time
-He hates Mimas because of the horrible screaming noise it makes. He and Dean watch Star Wars and when it gets to ‘that’s no moon’ he says ‘Ugh, why is Mimas in this’. Maybe it’s where they keep Zazel (demon of Saturn).
-Headcanon Agiel and Castiel are the angel equivalent of twins, but they have a yin-yang thing going on.
-Castiel is the goth one, being the angel of solitude and tears and also an angel of death.
-Agiel’s wings are different shades of silver
-As an intelligence angel, Agiel is a chatterbox and a major nerd. Unfortunately they also work for Naomi :(
I doodled a tiny Dean and Cas standing next to a slice of pie and for whatever reason I decided to draw tiny TFW hanging out next to more comparatively giant food
not the best idea considering I'm atrocious at drawing food but ehhh
I just noticed how the plushies are posed like they're witnessing something dramatic. Cas and Deadpool are pretty calm about it, but the poor white blood cell looks downright disturbed, and Zack appears to be trying to comfort it with head pats.
Trueform!Cas doodle I did to go along with trying to visualise my version of his true form from my Destiel ficlet
This is my first time properly drawing a bird, and I probably should have used a ref,, but he still looks cute to me. even with the halo of fire. and the eyes
----
"You're... huh. Not really what I was expecting. You're kinda just a giant crow, man. Not exactly inspiring fear."
-That's a common mistake among humans who have ever seen our true forms-
Cas' true voice inside Dean's head twang with a discordant note, like someone had plucked the wrong harp string in the middle of a song, while his feathers fluffed up and the flames on his halo blazed brighter.
Dean couldn't help the smile twitching on his lips.
-God made crows in our image. They are like tiny angels-
He held up his hands. "Okay, okay, you came first I get it."
The halo simmered down to a gentle crackle as the spinning slowed, and the glitter coming from Cas' feathers shimmered brightly as it floated away from his body. The translucent eyes above his head all closed gently as he shuffled his wings, and Dean found himself transfixed on this show of awkward shyness that he rarely saw on Cas in his vessel.
