Author's Summary:
A story in fifteen parts, in which the angel Castiel finds himself put in an untenable position, and consequentially loses his grace. In which he goes on a roadtrip with a demon, discovers the delights of tequila and french fries and pie, plays a starring role in a virgin sacrifice, is deflowered by his favourite Winchester, and then gets some very unpleasant news indeed.

Review:
This fic diverges from canon around the time Anna appears when the Winchesters, well-meaning though they are, ruin the best shot the good angels had at stopping the Apocalypse and in the process, cause Castiel to fall.  The good angels soon come up with a new plan though and this time, it takes the Winchester factor into account.  This was the very first Supernatural fic I read (and I read it before I'd seen the show itself) but I still like it as much now as I did then.  It's very well-written and the original plot works.  Note the warning --- there is character death and associated angst in this fic (there's a lot of that in canon too though so that shouldn't put you off this lovely story).
