One of those great seemingly throwaway but actually incredibly important moments is Cas telling the hunter where to find spell ingredients, right down to the exact room, drawer, and how it’s labeled. Combined with how Cas has slowly, the canon sneaking up on Cas, made Cas a fixture at the bunker. He not only lives there. He knows where stuff is. He doesn’t need to sleep, maybe he organized the drawers of spell ingredients himself, or maybe someone else did it, but Cas knows it like the back of his hand. He knows the bunker. It’s his home, because that’s where his family is.
Agreed. I love this.
Plus you know when Sam and Cas label things and do this kinda stuff they do it properly, working as a team and totally in sync in the way they work, whereas when they do it with Dean he’s the one who labels things “gross stuff” while they both roll their eyes at him and glance at each other with indulgent smiles.

Accurate. Also even if Sam organized the drawers, Cas’s detailed knowledge of where everything is is very telling. But yeah I think Sam and Cas maybe did it together or sleepless Cas, wandering the bunker at night, finds projects for himself. Also…Dean’s been missing for weeks and Cas and Sam could easily have been doing obsessive over-organizing as a coping tool for their worry. Sam wasn’t sleeping either just due to worry. Oh no, now I’m thinking about Sam and Cas finding each other wandering the bunker in the middle of the night, during times they weren’t each out there following a lead, both full of Dean worry and looking haunted at each other and did they join forces organizing stuff because it helped soothe them and maybe they talked about Dean.
