He should not even be doing this much. In fact, Castiel acknowledges, he should remove himself from the vicinity entirely.
He had told himself, after the last time, that he would never look in on her again. It was difficult, and there was no purpose to it.
And it aroused comment among some of his other brothers and sisters. Some of whom still occasionally look at him with suspicion for his close attachment to the traitor. Some of whom regard him with pity for the loss of his favorite sibling (even though all are supposed to be valued equally). And some of whom, higher on the chain, watched with mild concern as Castiel, one who was always curious about and appreciative of the world, had quietly drawn into himself and lost interest in the workings of Creation.
All good reasons he should go.
But millennia of connection is hard to shake.
And Anna is still not on a course that will lead back to her parents.
