Well, we don't know how he landed. I didn't think of him falling and dying. I just thought he "ended up" in the Cage, with all the precision that fails to convey.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because books.
I thought a fall like that would stop your heart long before you landed. I guess I'm also assuming, though, that it's not a literal drop from Stull into an actual pit. I thought heaven and hell were closer to another dimension than a tangible place you could get to.

So maybe he would get hungry.

I highly doubt that's what would happen.

I don't get why your minds are not in the gutter. What's (not) wrong with you?

There are better words for that than eating?
I'm all for them seeking shelter in each other's arms. And, you know, other body parts.

Unless you do mean he is eating him (out).

I initially thought the angel swords were just manifestations of the angels' will/aggression/power (hence why angels could only be killed by other angels). But they seemed to abandon that to let Dean use one to kill Zachariah, and Meg has used them since while referring to there being lots of dead angels to loot.

That still annoys me. In the beginning of S4, when Castiel is talking to Dean in Bobby's kitchen (in his dream), he says that several of his fellow angels had been killed in battle. So a) he knew angels could die, and b) if they were killed in battle, wouldn't he know *how* they were killed? The whole "we don't know how angels are being murdered" was so clumsy.

I thought that last part was referring to angels being picked off individually while not having been in battle at time preceding their death. That this was Uriel killing those who refused to join him during a private chitchat.
But yeah, the whole angels-dying thing did not mesh with the statement that only angels can kill other angels, so unless Cas and his garrison and the other Heavenly folks were battling a whole bunch of "fallen" angels openly on the side of Lucifer . . . ugh.
