ππππ wasn't the type to follow rules just because they were there.
Growing up with two loving mothers-Kaelith Amaris, the fire that raised him, and Lilia Simone, the calm that held him-and a quietly enduring father, Hoshiko Lucianis, Castiel lived between warmth and structure. With his younger half-brothers, he had a home full of laughter, shared custody weekends, and a family that made the broken seem whole.
But still, there was a storm inside him.
He was the kid who climbed rooftops at midnight, fought authority with silence, and disappeared into spaces where no one could follow-not out of defiance, but out of a lingering ache he couldn't name. Something in him always felt misplaced... like a star that refused to align.
Then came the dreams.
A crimson sky. A crying boy. A name lost in the wind. Dreams that weren't his, but pulsed through him like memory.
Determined to uncover their meaning, Castiel begins to unravel the truth behind his father's past-the story of a shattered sky, untold grief, and a love that survived it all. Alongside him is π»ππππππππ πΉππ πΉπππππ, a soft-spoken but sharp astronomy student who seems to understand the language of silence more than anyone else. With her presence, Castiel finds a strange sense of gravity-someone who doesn't try to fix him, but sees the constellations in his chaos.
As the lines blur between dream and destiny, Castiel must confront the part of him that's always felt fractured-and choose whether to live beneath the shadow of the past or rise and become the light he's always been afraid to be.
Because some stars don't burn out... they're just waiting for the right sky to shine.
