Aw, thank you! :D I'm really glad that it worked for you in spite of the angstfest that happened in the middle. ;) and I'm so glad that Cas worked for you in this, I was really hoping that my not-so-subtle ways of using canon would pay off. ;)

heee well Dean might have got caught in the spaghetti trope saying that the hero doesn't get out of it without some kind of permanent damage, but I wasn't gonna skip on all the bad guys getting it in the end, really. ;)
