    Summary

    He watches Sam’s finger point to the written words, “Dean still hardly talks,”.

    A few beats of silence pass—nothing out of the ordinary, at this point.

    “...Is this what’s happening?” Sam asks gently, implementing that tone of voice that always seems to remind Dean with a heart clenched in nostalgia that his brother is not a little boy anymore, but rather is now a grown man with an impressive emotional maturity.

     

    (TLDR: Dean Winchester and selective mutism: told throughout different stages of his life now that it has come back in full-force yet again after losing Cas to the Empty. Angst, hurt/comfort, and most importantly: happy ending.)

    Summary

    A few months into Innocent's papacy, an incident arises where not enough beds are provided for the Pope's traveling companions. Rather than force Thomas to sleep on a couch or go to a hotel, Vincent insists they share the large bed provided to them.

    What they don't expect, however, is to find out how touch-starved they both are and how wonderful it feels to fall asleep in each other's arms.

    Summary

    Thomas had been mesmerized by that gaze since the very start, when the Holy Father, then Cardinal Vincent Benítez, had looked up at him in that small room in the Santa Marta, hands clasped gently in his lap, with nothing to his name but a few official documents. Thomas had felt his heart skip a beat when those kind yet strong, unyielding eyes had settled into his own, Vincent’s lips quirking upwards just so.

    At the end of the Conclave, Thomas Lawrence had thought the worst to be behind him. But, apparently, God wasn't entirely done with him yet. First, he'd had to deal with the late Holy Father denying his resignation. Then with Adeyemi and Tremblay nearly toppling the Church over. And now...now Thomas had fallen in love with the Pope.
