[Castiel isn't sure he wishes to. Here, now, he can keep Dean safe. He can choose to always honor everything between them, never to falter no matter what greater good there is. They are in limbo, the Apocalypse is halted for Castiel, and it's never happened for Dean.
Should they ever return home, they will lose one another, because they have been plucked from different corners of time. Castiel will never meet this Dean without betraying him first, and Dean will never meet a Castiel who hasn't failed him.
Limbo... is preferrable, right now.
Castiel will know that he doesn't find his Father, but never be forced to face it. It makes him a coward, and he doesn't even care.]
How would you wish for it to end?
[Castiel can take an educated guess. He will be stuck in Purgatory at least. Alternatively, he will be freed, and he will watch over the Winchesters until they die.

It's a sad story, outside of limbo.]
