  Summary

  A rewrite of Season 7 (read season 6 first) featuring Honey Cas and his trauma-pacifism arc but Dean isn't so horrific about it.
  Also Dean doesn't go behind Sam's back and kill Amy the Kitsune for no reason.
  Not much filler and case work, I mostly just care about character development and all the gritty ways they are so Unwell
  Cas gets to admire bugs in peace
  All chapter titles are from Mind Is A Prison- Alec Benjamin
