    Summary

    Castiel comes back, human, and suddenly the world feels different. Dean calls him Castiel at first for fun, to mask the weight of everything, but it doesn’t stay a joke. With every repetition, it becomes something else—tender, binding.

    OR
    A story about finding each other, quiet mornings, stumbling into domesticity, farmer’s markets, paint stains and coffee rings, maybe one last case, and the raw intimacy of learning each other without walls. In small rituals, they discover what it means to live without blood and fear, and to love without it.

    Or
    A quiet love story about humanity, healing, and the way a name can mean everything.

    or
    they get together, kiss, and have filthy sex, too.

    --
    "The first time Dean says his full name, it startles him, deep, hits him like a thunderbolt. His eyes widen before he can stop it, and the word strokes something ancient in him, as old as the last wisps of his grace holding his skin together, and yet, embarrassingly human. It lands somewhere deep in his chest, somewhere to the top of his lungs, igniting him like a dropped match in dry grass. And something—heat or want maybe—flickers to life.
    Dean doesn't look away. Then he says it again, slower."

    Summary

    Cas was taken by the Empty on a Thursday.

    Chuck is defeated and freedom awaits Dean, but at what cost? Can Dean survive without Cas, and more importantly, does Dean want to navigate life without his best friend?

    There is also the small issue of the fact that ‘He didn’t get to say it back.’

    Or: The one where Dean wanders the bunker alone and tries to forget he is still alive.

    Summary

    He can’t handle losing Cas, and he especially can’t handle losing the ex-angel over something as stupid as him liking to dress up in pretty underwear because it makes him feel beautiful.

    Dean will either never speak his mind or he will die of humiliation, and he far easier will take the former.

     

    (TLDR: Dean Winchester and his macho-manly internalized shame struggles to accept the fact that he likes wearing panties. Cas shows him there's nothing wrong with it. Angst, some miscommunication, love, and smut ensue.)

    Summary

    When Dean’s grief is loud enough to wake him in The Empty, the entity casts Castiel out, but not without a price. He comes to in a barn in Pontiac, Illinois, with no memory of who or what he is. With nothing but an initial on the back of a photograph, and his heart’s instinct telling him to head west, Castiel begins a journey of self-discovery.
    Meanwhile, Dean is a broken shell. Rather than live under his brother and Eileen's pitying and concerned gaze, Dean decided it was time to move out of the bunker. With Jody’s help, Dean moves into a small lake house just outside of Sioux Falls, where he can mourn in peace and in his own time. Dean is determined to be better for Cas, even if it’s too little too late.
    Little does Dean know that it is never too late, as the Cas in Dean’s dreams is doing everything he can, to find his way back home.

    Summary

    Ten months after a traumatic experience leaves his daughter mute, single father Castiel Novak decides to heed the advice of Claire's therapist and get out of the city for a while. Obsessed with My Little Pony, Claire begs to go to "a pony farm" and, well, Castiel will do just about anything to make his little girl smile. A quick Google search later and he's booked a three month stay at Winchester Family Farm.

    Neither Castiel nor Claire knew what to expect when they arrived at the farm, but it certainly wasn't a gorgeous, green eyed cowboy who knows ASL and has a penchant for collecting orphaned animals. Nor were they expecting the entire Winchester clan to make them part of the family. But that's exactly what happens, and it isn't long before Castiel realizes that not only is Claire healing, but he is as well.

    A story about hope, healing, and finding home.
