From the Beginning, Castiel has always found humanity fascinating. One day, as he sat near a stream, he saw a man with the brightest, purest soul that he had ever encountered. For the next 12,000 years, he finds himself drawn to this soul over and over again, even when Naomi works him over and makes him forget.

Summary
When Simeon's arm was blown off by a shell blast, the magisters patched him up and gave him a spirited tin arm, which works like flesh and blood, but needs a bit more... instruction. In the convalescent hospital Simeon runs into an old friend, who helps him recognise the benefits of his spirited appendage.
Robert was sitting to his left, so Simeon lifted his arm, unbent his elbow, tilted his wrist and rested his spirited hand in Robert's palm. There was a feeling of warmth, of his spirit meeting Robert's, both of them buzzing with Ka. Robert closed his fingers over the cold tin, and Simeon felt the pressure. It activated an answering pressure deep in Simeon's gut.
Casting a quick look around the dormitory, Robert leaned close. "We're not alone here," he said, breath against Simeon's ear. "There's a storeroom at the end of the hallway. Meet me there tonight half an hour after lights out." He gave Simeon's hand a squeeze and stood.

Summary
