    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.

    Summary

    Dean almost couldn’t believe it when he saw that huddled body swaddled in a tan trenchcoat sitting in the middle of the dungeon floor. Cas was back. After months of searching, digging through the archives to find a way to drag his ass out of the Empty, they had finally done it.

    But something was wrong.

    This wasn’t the Castiel that smiled up at him with a tearful goodbye after revealing his true happiest moment. This was a wild, snarling beast of a man, warped and twisted, feral thanks to the damage of the Empty. A man who would probably rip out Dean’s throat rather than confess his love.

    Even when Dean breaks through that wild exterior, he discovers that Castiel still thinks he’s trapped in the hell that is the Empty. That nothing around him is real.

    Dean just has to get through to 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

    Haunted by his time as a demon, Dean feared he was in a losing battle with the Mark of Cain. So when he learned how to make a Ma’lak Box, he prepared to make a sacrifice. Castiel was not prepared to let the man he loved, spend an eternity of torment six feet under. While Dean grapples with his demon inside the box, Cas frantically searches for a way to rescue his hunter. The question becomes what will happen if the Deanmon is already in control when Cas succeeds. And it’s a question that’s complicated by the fact the Deanmon has made it clear he desires to rule hell… with Cas at his side.

    Summary

    “So what’s up with- Dude, again?” Sam’s voice rings through the room incredulously.

    Dean grunts in response.

    “You can’t possibly still be tired. Like, I feel like this should be physically impossible.”

    “Tell that to my melatonin levels.”

    “How do you know what melatonin is?”

    Dean does his best to roll his eyes under the cover of his eyelids. “Jesus, Sam, I’m not an idiot. Will you shut up so I can sleep?”

    He hears Sam huff. “Ya know, if you wanted to nap, you could always use that thing you have called a bed.”

    “Not the same,” Dean grumbles. His body doesn’t get all loose when he’s laying in his bed watching horror movies. The synapses that slow their firing contentedly seem to be wired to that same invisible bodily response of the outside world, and apparently being in the openness of his family’s space turns his brain into mush. “Now unless someone’s dying, I’m beggin’ you to shut up.”

    or the one where the whole family is together, dean finds enough peace to take some naps, and he's not sure he'll ever figure out how to say those three big words to cas

    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

    Mrs. Christian, owner of Lebanon's only grocery store, had once been a perfectly respectable woman. But now here she was, completely invisible, being forced to witness Dean Winchester's love lessons, all in an effort to teach Castiel how to flirt and bed a woman.

    “Thank you, Dean,” Castiel said and he looked as thankless as one could be. “For our fake date yesterday. I think I'm ready now. To find a woman...like you want me to.”

    "I want you to be happy, Cas," Dean said. "You're human now. Hunting isn't a life."

    But oh, how utterly strained and painful his smile looked! And then, Mrs. Christian had an epiphany and her body shuddered with homophobic shock. How had she not seen it before? How had she not noticed how thin their fake-dating pretence was? This godless man, Dean Winchester, was an authentic homosexual, wasn’t he?! He hadn't been pretending!

    She lost consciousness at once.

    Summary

    Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak have been best friends since they were four years old, and Mary was still fresh in her grave. Castiel isn't an idiot. He knows that the feelings he has for his best friend probably don't count as platonic, but Dean, as ever, is in complete denial.

    The worst part? He's always had to be in denial.

    Aside from being constantly tortured by mixed up emotions, he's also constantly tortured at home by his only surviving parent.

    Prequel to Breathe, but you definitely don't need to have read that first.

    Summary

    “Fuck, I can’t believe that, I can’t...you really wanted to fuck me.”

    Cas doesn’t say anything and Dean glances through his fingers, just to be meet with the sight of an angel shifting in his seat, staring at him with these stupid blue eyes, but now they are...fuck, they are darker, the pupils blown and Dean’s throat is suddenly very dry. He sits upright like a lightning bolt has hit him.

    “You...you still want to fuck me”, he whispers.

    ---

    It's their last night on earth and finally Dean and Castiel allow themselves to give in to what has been between them for years now. It doesn't matter if that would complicate things between them. They're gonna die anyway, right?

    Until they don't.

    Summary

    Heaven is white.

    Well. Isn’t that fucking stereotypical.

     

    -

     

    Dean isn’t really sure how he got here. Or even why he’s here. And hell, for all the times the Winchesters have died, he thinks he ought to know the drill by now. But what he doesn’t know is when most folks go, they find something different.

    There’s a system God put in place. That when you’re gone (for good), there are a couple things you gotta do first. There are five people waiting for you.

     

    They are the five people you meet in heaven.

    Summary

    Dean’s favourite coffee shop, The Graveyard Shift, is only open after the sun goes down. Which is perfect for him, because that’s exactly when he craves coffee the most while doing the overnight at the fire hall. The coffee shop’s owner is pretty perfect too, but it’s kind of a bummer that Dean never gets to see Cas during the day. In a world where the supernatural live more or less in peace with the rest of humanity, it’s a little impolite to ask Cas just what he really is - or what his dark past entails.

    Summary

    As soon as it was done, he left.

    He left Dean's body and Dean left the room.

    He knew that he couldn't leave Cas like this, shouldn't leave Cas like this, but he couldn't stay, he couldn't look at him, couldn't touch him, couldn't see skin his own hands had left blemished and tainted and torn, couldn't see the angel violated and hurt and broken by his own body.

    The door unlocked the moment he had done what he'd come for, had taken and destroyed and left. It flew open, revealing Sam who he knew had been furiously beating against the wood while- while...oh God, he was gonna throw up.

    His brother looked shocked at the picture that unfolded in front of his eyes, his features contorted in disbelief and disgust at the crumpled and naked figure in the centre of Dean's mattress.

    Dean's mattress. In Dean's bed. In Dean's room.

    He felt sick.
