[ The place: Serenity. The person: a newly world-hopped, currently invisible-to-human-eyes angel of the Lord looking for his friend. It's probably a good thing that Castiel still has the ability to hide himself from people's view when he wants to. From what River's said before, he doubts the rest of the crew would be best pleased at finding a mysterious stranger looking to talk to River on the ship.
Does Castiel even know what he's going to try and do here, or even if he can do anything? The answer to that would be a resounding no, but he's not going to let that stop him from showing up anyway. Anyone who has a problem with that isn't going to be met with much patience.
In all honesty, he doubts anything he could do or say could make this better. He's not stupid. But River's his friend, and even if sitting quietly so she's less alone is the only thing that can be done, it's... well. It's something.
After checking that Simon isn't around, because that would make for some awkward explanations, he makes himself visible again. ]
