If I Could Write Season 4 (musings on 4.01 and season 4--no spoilers, just thoughts)  

There's been a lot of musings about Castiel and his agenda--is he good or evil? Is he really an angel? If so, is he really working for God?

Taking all these things into consideration-here's what I would love to see them do with the character.

If I could write season four, then Castiel would sincerely believe that he's doing God's will when really, he isn't. Or put differently: I would squee like a very squeeful thing if Castiel got the order to pull Dean out of Hell by someone who claims to be God, but who really isn't.

Think about it--in "Sin City," Casey tells Dean that Lucifer is the god of the demons, but that nobody's seen him around in a while. The leader of demons now seems to be Lilith. To keep balance between the "demonic" world and the "angelic" world, Kripke's best move would be to do the same to the Christian God--make him into a myth, have the angels too without a leader. Or, give them a leader who claims to be God and is mostly working in his own interest.

So that way--oh, how glorious would it be if Castiel really believed he was doing the Lord's will, maybe he even eagerly believed that God spoke to him when he got the command to resurrect Dean, and later finds out that he's been fooled. Possibly tricked into doing something that would never have been "God's Will."

No way Kripke will actually go there. But oh, how I'd love it if he would. If not, it's still lorious fanfic potential. *makes notes*

By the way, does anybody know if there's an animated icon somewhere of Castiel revealing his wings?

I think it'll end Dean vs Sam because they've been hinting at that for three seasons. :-/

You know, there are times, when being right really sucks.
I'll keep my crossed for being wrong just in case.
