Summary
Cas comes back from the empty. Human, and without memory.
There’s resilience to be said about the human spirit, though, and how after everything- we still have our souls. They tie us together in ways beyond reason, and Cas doesn’t know why- but he knows these people, they’re important. He feels it.
With this work, my primary thesis has been expressing a parallel to Castiel's Despair confession with Dean's expression of feelings here. Because as I see it, Castiel's confession is less about him expressing himself and it's more about getting Dean to feel loved and earning of that love and understanding that he's made of more good parts than bad because that love exists. So essentially through the angst of Castiel's memory loss, we gain something else here- his ability to view his life and his relationships from an outside perspective. Unmarred by his previous transgressions and the years between them, there's a clearer perspective to be gained as to the extent of care surrounding him, fitting him in a place to newly see the depth of care for him.

Summary
In which Amara doesn't bring back Mary, she brings back John Winchester.
Dean is uncertain what Amara's meaning is when she brings John back, and struggles with coming to terms with the new family dynamic. Sam tries harder to keep the peace than he used to, and Cas does not get along with John at all- though he tries. Testosterone is at an all-time high as these four men struggle to coexist in the hunting world with very different ideologies.
We explore just how much the brothers have changed in the ten years without their father's guidance, the trauma they still haven't resolved, and the feelings that Dean and Cas hold for one another despite the very real and new barrier that is John.
This story begins 12x01 and ends around 13x06

Summary
Chuck is gone and the world is back in order. For once there’s no big bad and this little makeshift family can focus on trying to start the rest of their lives.
With Cas back from the empty, Dean now has to face his feelings on the angel and an 'i love you' he doesn't know what to do with. In true Dean fashion, he deals with his feelings on the matter by absolutely not dealing with them at all. How long can this really last, though, when everyone knows Dean Winchester is just as much in love with Castiel as Cas is with him.

Summary
It's funny how such a small thing can make such a big difference.
All he wanted was to get Tav to stop pickpocketing him; to keep his treasures (and his trousers) to himself. But she couldn't do that, so now here he was, lacing an onyx ring to the inside of his shirt so it wouldn't go walking off. Sure, there might have been an ominous diary entry regarding a hasty marriage, strange wounds, and eventually death but that doesn't mean much without the other ring.
Oh look at that, a skeleton with another ring. How... fortuitous.
(Or Astarion learns that Tav is his greatest treasure after a prank gone too far)

Summary
“Weddings- marriage- it’s weird.” Dean pauses. “I don’t get it, but I also kinda envy them, ya know?” A deep breath in. He sniffles like a nervous habit. “Like, somehow I thought I’d be dead by thirty, but I also had this thing in my head that I’d get married. That’s what guys are supposed to do- what people are supposed to do. Get married. Just felt like something that would automatically happen whether I wanted it to or not.”
“Did you want it to?”
Yes.
Dean pushes his lips out. “Don’t know how much it matters. Pipe dreams usually stay in the pipe.”

Summary
How can he say more than the words that don’t even capture a fraction of the pain. You were dead. Three words that are too weak to hold up the agony. Cas, you were dead, and you weren’t coming back. I know because I burned the body.
“Okay, alright. You don’t need to speak. It’s alright- I’ll- I’ll just-” and then Cas is holding up a glowing hand that he moves over the vague shape of Dean’s body under the tangle of his bedsheets. “I can’t sense anything wrong. Nothing malignant, or even duress of natural causes. I don't- I don’t know what’s happening.”
Cas, man, it’s actually not as bad as it seems. I think I’m having a panic attack.

Summary
“So- so you’d basically be using some sort of sigil to mask our human souls from the Empty?” Sam’s voice interrupts Dean’s desperate train of thought and startles him back to the present.
“Yes.” Jack is nodding, smiling, all gap-toothed and kindergarten positivity.
“And the only parts of us the Empty would see are whatever dead leaves the angels and demons left in our gutters?” Dean raises his eyebrows.
“Exactly.”
He lets out a low whistle. There’s a living warmth finally coming back into his complexion. Not done yet, Winchester, still one more rescue mission. “It’s gotta be me. I’m going.”
