Summary
Keeley looked at Roy, but he didn’t notice because he was drinking his coffee and looking at Jamie with such unmistakable fondness that it made her a little uncomfortable. Like, maybe she shouldn’t be there to see that. Were they really going to spend the whole day watching footie together and then having dinner together? Would Jamie be sleeping there that night? Was this their standard Sunday tradition? Because that’s exactly what it felt like. Like she was the interloper in somebody’s happy little homelife. Jamie looked over and caught Roy watching him and Keeley was sure he blushed. Just a little, the top of his cheeks turned pink before he looked back down and focused on what was left of his food.

Summary
Cas asks Dean to marry him, and Dean can't think of a reason to say no.
~~~
"Dean," Cas says calmly, gingerly sitting his fork down, and oh, this is gonna be a thing, Dean can tell. Sure enough, it is because Cas goes on to say, "What would you think if I suggested we get married?"
Dean blinks and swallows the food in his mouth, staring at Cas curiously. "I would think...you were either on drugs or going insane, why?"
"I'm not inebriated, nor mentally unstable."
"I—I…" Dean takes in a deep breath, then blows it out heavily. "Cas, you're not fucking with me, are you?"
"I'm not," Cas tells him.
"Okay," he says, "fuck it, let's get hitched."
"Thank you," Cas murmurs sincerely, then picks his fork back up and goes right back to eating.

“But you know something? If I couldn’t get you laid, at least I gave you a good first date.”

Summary
Cas comes back. It's not exactly the reunion that Dean is expecting.
~~~
Dean stares at him, flummoxed. Cas quite literally poured his heart out to Dean, gave a truly sappy and distressingly romantic speech and everything, then proceeded to give his life so that Dean could live his. And he wants to act like he doesn't want to see Dean, be around him, touch him?
Actually, Dean's ninety-nine percent sure that Cas probably wants to fuck him, and while he has no clue how he feels about that, he's pretty goddamn sure that means Cas doesn't get to act like this and make it authentic.
It feels strangely real, though, as if Cas wants nothing more than to get as far away from him as possible. This is a blatant contradiction. Even someone as weird as Cas doesn't want to get away from the person they have the desire to fuck five ways to Sunday, that they're in love with. That's not how these things work, so Dean isn't buying it.

Summary
“How the fuck do you know my name?” Dean hisses.
The man doesn’t look scared. He is watching Dean like there is nothing else worth watching, lips a little parted, eyes a little soft. And blue. Real blue, like the ocean on a postcard.
The ice spreading down Dean’s spine makes him shiver.
“I suppose you could say I’m your guardian angel,” the man murmurs. His breath fogs pale between them. All of him is unnaturally warm, like Dean’s touching somebody with the sun sewn up beneath their skin. “I have known you, Dean Winchester, for a very long time.”
*
Dean meets an angel who says he's from the future. It all gets a lot more complicated from there.

Summary
What good is a soldier without a war to fight?
--
Dean, adrift without Cas in a world that doesn't remember ending and desperately refusing to believe in the hope Jack offers, stumbles out of hunting and into a life he's absolutely not equipped for -- except for how it might just be the one thing that can keep him together.

both arms cradle you now by philomelas_tongue
Fandoms: Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022)
03 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
“I’m not trying to clean up any mess,” says Louis, so sincerely that Daniel almost believes him. “Frankly, you’ve done better than anyone could have been expected to, under the circumstances or otherwise. I’m offering because I care for you, Daniel, and because you should have had more support from the beginning, and this is an unfair way for anyone to enter into undeath.” And, he adds, in a thought hardly louder than a whisper, if it should have been me, then at least let me — help out, now. I can’t undo the past. But I can do this.
“I don’t want to be your — your charity case,” says Daniel, out loud. I don’t need your fucking pity.
Louis looks at him for a long moment. Daniel, if you think pity is what I am feeling for you, maybe you do need my help after all.

“Lestat,” says Daniel, “are you inviting me on a five-month-long European playdate with your husband?”
“If that is what will get you to accept,” says Lestat, “then yes.”
“What are you actually up to?” asks Daniel. He’s young, in vampiric terms anyway, but he was not born yesterday.
“Me? Up to something? Please, Daniel. What do you take me for?”

Summary
Dean’s sitting at the kitchen table with Sam when his phone rings. Jody’s name flashes across the screen and he considers not picking up. It’s not like Dean doesn’t want to talk to Jody, it's just that he can’t bear talking to anyone these days.
“Hi, Jody,” Sam says.
“Howdy, boys.” She asks them to take over a case. Something about werewolves. Dean doubts they will, Sam hasn’t let him pick up a gun in months, not since their last hunt.
Jody’s voice cuts through the phone. “Alright, if you boys don’t wanna take the case, I’ll see if Castiel will, but I think he’s helping Claire in Colorado–”
Dean doesn’t hear a damn thing after that, and by the looks of it, Sam doesn’t either. For the first time in days, Dean opens his mouth and speaks. “Cas is alive?”
Jody’s voice is quiet on the other end. “He didn’t tell you?”

Summary
Dean’s your typical half-orphaned, monster-killing 22-year-old until a trenchcoated stranger crashes into his back windshield one September night, claiming he’s an angel that knows him from the future and that he’s on the run.
Frigging fantastic.
(Or, in which Castiel gets stuck in Dean’s timeline preseries and Dean kind of hates it—until he doesn’t.)

Summary
A 14.13 Lebanon rewrite. When Dean uses a wish-granting pearl to try and kill the archangel Michael before he can escape the cage in Dean's head, they instead wind up with a newly-resurrected John Winchester.
It's been more than a decade since John died, and a lot has changed: Mary is alive, Sam and Dean have what passes for a proper home in the Men of Letters Bunker, and they're living with angels. John doesn't know angels are real, he doesn't know about the fragile new relationship between Dean and Castiel, and most of all, he doesn't know that Dean said yes to Michael, or that Dean's plan to defeat Michael would send him to a fate worse than death.
Now Dean must contend with both his father asking questions he can't answer, and his loved ones learning about the darker truths of his childhood, all while constantly battling the archangel trapped inside him. But Dean coming to terms with his history may be the difference between this being the beginning of a journey—or the end.

Summary
The briefing was simple: ‘Stand guard over the Michael Sword until the battle is ready to commence. Await further instructions.’
Castiel doesn’t mind working security duty; he was briefed shortly after the initial salvation of the Sword from the pit, and again before taking up his position. He knows what to do. However, it’s easy to forget that the green room isn’t real. Time moves differently there, the space ever-changing to make a prison of mountains, cathedrals, salt flats, orchards, and whatever Castiel was led to believe about Heaven’s greatest weapon—Dean Winchester is something entirely unexpected.

Summary
“Dean, you - you’re going to become an angel. I have no idea what that means for you. I have no idea if you’ll even still”- Cas breaks off, throat working around something he can’t - or doesn’t want to - say.
“If I’ll still be me?” Dean finishes the sentence Cas so desperately didn’t want to give voice to.Despite everything, Dean's life as a human must come to an end. But that doesn't mean the end of this. It just means the start of something totally new.
