Castiel never quite knew what was wrong with him - he only knew he didn’t fit.
After a breakdown, he expected silence, routines, and cold diagnoses. But then Dean appeared. Unpredictable, intense, with that crooked smile that seemed to see through the walls Castiel had built around himself.
A turbulent, poetic, and brutal love story, where falling in love might be the most insane act of all.
(Inspired by the film “Girl, Interrupted.”)
