Sam stared at the spot where Raphael had stood and then he simply walked over to the couch to sit down. He rested his head in his hands and tried to process any of this. All of this. The reality that Raphael was alive. That he'd never been dead. That he had been fine ignoring them (him) for years. He looked at the ground because he didn't want to look at Castiel and Matty right now. Fuck them.
Bobby cleared his throat, shrugging his shoulders. "Square One?" Damn.
Suddenly, Sam's face was ticklish and next to him, Raphael was tickling his face with what looked like a golden feather. "For the record, mine are blue. You'll never be able to see it but they're really sexy. Just something to keep in mind." He held the feather up to show his brother Castiel, assuming the other had never seen Michael's wings before. "Golden child, golden wings. It pissed Luci off so much. His were more of an off-white. Eggshell white?"
"You came back." Matty stated, still surprised. Usually when Raphael fucked off, he fucked off and did not come back. And there he was, with Michael's feather.
"Duh." Raphael looked at Sam and smiled. "Big brothers, man. They drive you to the ends of the Earth."
"That is Michael's feather." Castiel stated it like a fact, but on his face it showed a certain reverence. It was a holy artefact after all, from the lost archangel. He wouldn't have thought he'd ever see it. "I don't know if wings are sexy."
Sam didn't know that either, but that Raphael had returned with that one feather made him experience a whole new host of emotions. His heart was really being put through the wringer today. "Thank you." He looked at Raphael and smiled back. Somewhere close-by, Bobby made gagging sounds.
Sam ignored him. "Stay here. Until the summoning."
"Sure, let's all invite themselves and their angels over. Why not?" Bobby huffed, shaking his head. "Aleister will be thrilled."
"I guess I can hang out for a bit." Raphael twirled the feather and then smiled at Sam, feeling bad that he got stuck with the dud of angels. He wasn't really a good guardian but he was trying. "I have all of my brother's feathers. I kept them in case I ever needed to summon them. I've never needed that though until today." And now he was going to confront Michael for the first time in a long time. Yikes.
"Ah, quit your bitchin'. We're the ones who have to sleep on the floor in the living room." And while Matty took the floor, Castiel would sit and watch him while Sam rolled around next to him. "Aleister can just damn well deal." Ugh. Bobby and Aleister.
"Aww, is Aleister your boyfriend?" Raphie asked as he grinned at Bobby. "I do love love. Well done."
"Cool, tiny brother bonding time." Raphael rolled his eyes and then offered Castiel a fake smile. "Sure, let's creepily stare at our favourite brothers all night long."
He winked at Castiel and then held his hands up defensively at Bobby. "I'll be a good boy. I'm an angel, we're always good boys."
"You really aren't. And just because you came through doesn't make you less of a douche." Matty highlighted, not quite ready to forgive just yet.

Bobby looked at Raphael and nodded. "Something like that, sonny. Now, no tricks in here. If you're stayin', you're behavin'."
"We can stand guard over their sleep together, brother," Castiel said to Raphael in earnest, as if that was the best and most logical thing to do.

"Oh Cas, your bae is so prickly."
