I know enough, [ she says wryly, quietly. not everything, no — but so much that many think it to be the same thing. ]

Dean. You convinced Castiel once, didn't you? You showed him why humanity is worth it. You'll do it again. It's who you are.

[ it's in his nature. and in any case — ]

In the end, Castiel believed in you. Sam has always believed in you. Maybe... it's time you start believing in yourself.

[ruinously]

[ He's unconvinced, but having someone say these things to him twists him up in ways he isn't sure how to define. People don't...encourage him. They don't tell him he's good, they don't tell him he's needed. He's never felt particularly worthy of genuine affection because he hasn't had any since he was four. ]

I'm not sure I know how to do that.

[vivecai]

It might take some time... but listening to those who believe in you is a good start.

[ her tone makes it very clear she's one of those people. ]

[ruinously]

[ It's hard to believe that, too, that anyone actually believes in him. But, he can try. ]

I can do my best.

No promises.

[vivecai]

I'll take that.

[ one step at a time. ]
