Letters To Castiel

Sorry if I just missed it (I haven been here for a while), but I was wondering if there ever was a reaction from Misha to the book?

We haven’t heard anything from Misha regarding the book, but you can read all about when it was given to him in this post about NashCon

Dear Castiel,

I know you’re just a fictional character of a awesome series (believe me I know that) but for me you’re much, much more. You gave me the strength to believe in … something - my friends, who are family for me like Dean and Sam are for you and especially in angels.

Angels like you who are loyal and trust unquestioning in a higher power. Possibly I could believe in a god if he could be like you. You can’t imagine what you mean to me.

Thank you and Misha Collins!

Larissa, from Austria

Would it be okay to write a letter in german? Because I'm from austria and I think I wouldn't be able to find the right words in english. :)

Of course! :)

I tried to post a letter, but I guess it was too long because half the thing was cut out. Even so, I've seen longer letters than mine posted here. So, why is that? Am I doing it wrong, because this is the place to drop the letter, right? I'm not a member on tumblr, and I don't wish to be, so I hope that's not the issue.// Mickis

Hello :)

I haven’t cut anyone’s letters - if your letter was on the longer side, half would be shown and the rest is place under a “Read More” cut so that it doesn’t take up too much room on other people’s dashboards.

But I definitely wouldn’t just cut someone’s letter in half. If there is content in there that I think is overly negative etc. I have said since the beginning that I will not post it. But letters that are posted are in their entirety.

Dear Castiel,

I feel odd writing a letter to a fictional character, but here goes. When Supernatural first premiered I wasn’t very interested, considering it just another monster-of-the-week show. But then, fast-forward to February 2011, when I found myself watching episode 6.12 of Supernatural after tuning in to watch Smallville.

I instantly discovered there was much more to this show and immediately took a liking to you. At that point, I wanted to go back and start from the beginning to enjoy the experience fully. At first I was severely disappointed. The show just wasn’t the same without my favorite angel. I stuck with the show and grew to like Sam and Dean as well, although you still held a special place in my heart.

Then when I reached season four I was once again graced by your presence on the show and I felt oddly whole again. Several times I actually had to press pause and regain my composure because something you had done put me in a laughing fit.

Well, in conclusion, I look forward to seeing season seven, even though you’ve been demoted to a minor character. I’m eager to see where your journey will take you in the coming weeks.

Sincerely,
Kevin

Dear Castiel,

I just wanted to thank you. For being there, for giving all of yourself, for loving those boys so much that you sacrificed everything. Thank you for believing in them. Thank you for not giving up.

I believe in you, Cas. And I won’t give up on you, either.

To The Angel That Changed My World Irreversibly,

When I first heard of the show, Supernatural, I had little interest. Years later I saw a few scenes during the end of season 5 but the mention of angels turned me away entirely. It was only by chance that I bothered to watch the start of season 5 after we had the DVDs, and more chance that I stuck with it even though God was mentioned right in the second episode. Ironically, it was War -just the inclusion of the horsemen- that made me stick with the season.

But then I got to know you during your fall. The whole week it took me to watch the season.

You with your failure of a father. All alone in a world of people who could never understand you. Even your lack of cultural understanding, especially the casual references Dean loves to make. They all reminded me of myself and I quickly found myself attached to a being I’d once hated the thought of.

You turned my world completely upside down. Now angels are just as real for me as everything else (though the majority really are more trouble than they’re worth.) I’ve even found myself contemplating (possibly even communing with) a god I once rejected entirely. It’s alarming how easily I shifted my reality to find a place for you and the “family” you bring with you.

I’d have to be stupid not to realize it’s a total crush. (And a total idiot if I didn’t realize just how dumb that is.) But that’s the truth. I was crushing on an angel.

Was, because, as we’ve seen, you’ve now taken on the power of a god. At first I couldn’t accept it. The thought of accepting that any sort of God could actually exist was something I never planned nor wanted to deal with, so I didn’t.

And yet, in not dealing I found myself come to accept it. A half-hearted prayer here. A word of thanks for good fortune there.

Whatever road your future holds I wish you all the wisdom necessary to survive it and become better for the journey. Most of all I wish to see you back. Secretly I pray the return is to your old self, but I can be perfectly content with you as the new God. (Just so long as you lose the new attitude.)

Sincerely,
a secret fan who hated angels one year ago.
Kyrie (Eleison, Christe Eleison)

Dear Cas,

You don’t know me. You don’t know any of us writing these letters to you, and you don’t have to really. All you should know is there are people who still believe in you and are rooting for you, day and night. There are people ready to cross the realm between reality to fantasy to help you and ready to fight every hell hound in hell and every archangel in heaven to save you.

For the most part, this letter is to help save you from a fate that we have yet to find out. But there are also some things I want you to know.

First and foremost, I want you to know that I’m so, so sorry.

I’m sorry you had to bear the weight of the world on your shoulders. I’m sorry you didn’t go to Dean, right before you made the biggest mistake of your life. I’m sorry you didn’t go after. I’m sorry you had to make every tough decision on your own. I’m sorry they turned out to be the wrong ones. I’m sorry when you finally realized that, you were in too deep to resurface. I’m sorry that you lost your friends’ trust, especially Dean’s.

Dear Castiel,

[ed - This letter is behind a cut because although it is beautiful it could be seen as a ‘trigger’ and deals with sensitive material and should be viewed with that knowledge]
