[Raphael lashing out is expected, and so it's no shock when there's sudden blinding pain and Castiel drops to his knees on reflex, doubling over with one arm around his stomach and the other on the ground to support himself, hacking up a huge mouthful of blood. It's vessel damage, and he will heal, and Raphael's actions are proving more than Castiel's words ever could.
He raises his head just enough to see Mary hit Raphael, and though on some level he's pretty sure that's both humorous and impressive on another he's suddenly very very worried. Mary just put herself in a great deal of danger, and Castiel can't protect her like this.]
