Summary
Having expelled more than his fair share of demons, Father Castiel Novak is something of an exorcism expert—or at least he was before his recent excommunication. After receiving a desperate plea from Sam Winchester for help exorcising a demon from his older brother, Dean, Castiel travels to their home on Pruitt Island to offer assistance. While there, he’ll have to figure out not only how to save Dean, but how to navigate his unexpected, growing feelings for the man, and whether Dean’s reciprocation is genuine—or being orchestrated by what’s inside him.

Summary
When a new sales manager joins the office and turns the entire floor on its head, Dean makes a reckless, ill-advised decision out of spite.

Unfortunately for him, Castiel is unreadable, devastatingly attractive, and completely immune to Dean’s usual charm.

Summary
In 1839, Dean Winchester has left behind the night terrors of his childhood and the unnatural desires that ultimately drove his family from England.
Now in Nuremberg, he enjoys a quiet life with his brother, sister-in-law, and pious fiancee. As a favor to his solicitor brother, he travels to Transylvania to meet with a client, Count Orlok. In the looming, decaying castle blanketed in snow, Dean finds the count to be a lonely figure seemingly desperate for human connection.
As Dean's health declines, he is plagued by strange, vivid dreams that span the castle's history, his own memories, and fantasies he had hoped to leave years in the past and an ocean away. While his life and sanity crumble, he must choose between what he should want and what he fears.

Summary
Jack is in charge of the universe and Castiel is no longer dead. There’s a new plan with a new system linking Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory together to create a fair afterlife for all. Dean enters Heaven six months later, which is bittersweet all around. But none of that is as difficult as the task Jack assigns to Castiel, declaring him the only angel for the job, which is to take in reborn angels and raise them like human children with a present father in a loving home, earning their loyalty through affection and guidance rather than orders and punishments.
Besides the mission assigned to him to become a parent to his former siblings, Castiel also has to figure out what the two unfulfilled desires he has according to Jack, and how to achieve them once he does.

Summary
“You’re an angel.”
Layla doesn’t know why she says this.
Though, the moment the words leave her mouth she believes them to be true. There have been days over the last year when she couldn’t remember her father’s name or the recipe to her favorite sugar cookies (the really chewy ones her grandmother used to make for Christmas), but she was certain that this man was an angel.
“My name is Castiel.” -

Summary
Castiel Novak is perfectly happy with his work as an instructor at the FBI Academy, regardless of his parents’ belief that he’s wasting his medical degree. But then his life is turned upside down by a new assignment: to join Agent Dean Winchester in investigating X-Files — FBI cases that involve unexplained phenomena.
Castiel is meant to test (or rather, debunk) Dean’s famously wild theories, but he soon finds himself drawn into events he can’t explain. The more time he spends with Dean, the harder it becomes to resist the pull of a man who cares more — and believes more fervently — than anyone Castiel has ever known.

Summary
Dean is a reaper. Escorting souls to the afterlife is more than just a job to him — it’s a calling. Not always an easy one either, but he copes just fine until the day he reaps the soul of Naomi Novak and meets her grieving son, Castiel.
Castiel is kind, handsome, and Dean can’t stop thinking about him.
As time goes on, Dean finds it harder and harder to resist the pull Castiel seems to exert on him. But is he ready to face the cosmic consequences that result when a human and a reaper fall in love?

Summary
When we leave Layla Rourke, her fate seems sealed and Dean carries the question "Why me and not her?" What if that wasn't the end of her story?
I had this thought during a rewatch, and my husband really liked the idea, so I'll share it with you, too. Written in the style of Carver Edlund.

Summary
There are two Dean Winchesters in hospital beds.
One, recently saved from hell, has just learned that he’s the one who jump-started the apocalypse and, because of this, he’s also the only one who can stop it.
The other, years earlier, has just learned he’s going to die.
**********
It would have been nice to have had the angel’s healing mojo in the past. But when it comes down to it, it’s not them he wishes they’d had the angels around to save. It’s everyone else—all of the people they hadn’t been able to save. Or worse, the ones that they’d damned.
In particular, he can’t stop thinking about Layla. The girl who'd had more faith than Dean could ever dream of. He was chosen to be healed when she had deserved it so much more. Before the other night, he hadn’t thought about her in years. He’s been too much of a coward to look her up because he knows what he’ll find. She’d told him she only had six months, and that time was up long ago. There’s no way she’s still around to save now.
But angels can do a hell of a lot more than just heal people. They can travel back in time too.

What if season 4 Dean and Cas time-traveled back to 1x12 Faith to save Layla?

Summary
It’s 1973, and it’s the middle of spring, and each passing day is warmer than the one before it. The troops are returning from Vietnam in droves, and the American shores they stumble upon are just a little more accepting of homosexuality than the ones they left all those years ago. But Father Castiel Novak has never even stepped foot out of Salvation, let alone out of the Midwest, and as the only priest in this very small town, he’s determined to remain in the closet until his very last breath.
Things take a turn when Salvation’s newest resident confesses to having urges for other men. Dean Winchester wastes no time in asserting himself as both intolerably arrogant and an ungodly temptation, and Castiel’s only defense is to keep his distance. Despite his best efforts, a friendship still ensues, and it’s a very slippery slope then, with things going from bad to worse when Dean offers his self-proclaimed good hands to help bring Castiel’s family home back to life.
