First Crowley and now Castle... she should have expected it, really, but it didn't hurt any less. She sighed and sat next to him as she had with her demon friend. It was easier to read Castle. They'd been there for each other through losing Kate and Cas respectively, though he had gotten Kate back, they had still shared that sense of loss and it was incredibly touching seeing him upset over her, too.

It was starting to hit home that she actually mattered to people, as hard as it was to wrap her head around it. She was more or less a pariah in her world, but Paradisa had changed her quite a bit, she supposed. And the context in which she was the bad guy didn't really exist here.

She watched him and sat with him until he left, silently praying that the castle would get the memo that she had learned her lesson. Was that, perhaps, the point? Meg could only help.
