Summary
My take on the idea that Chuck won and possessed Jack in 15x19.
"Dean should have known earlier. Everything about Jack had been wrong, somehow, but he’d attributed it to the various things that had gone wrong in the kid’s life plus the addition of the new powers.
It takes him a week to figure it out, a week after Chuck is powerless, two weeks after Cas is dead.
Then he knows, from something about the way he hasn’t heard from Jack, from how Eileen is still missing, from how Cas is still dead. It isn’t Jack, not the Jack they knew.
He tells Sam, of course, as soon as he realizes, not that it’ll matter. They’ve tried to fight Chuck enough times before. He knows them too well to let them win."

Summary
“The tree was guarded by a pack of djinn… think I’m technically married to their queen now.”
-Castiel, ScoobynaturalDean has Cas back alive after four months with the help of a djinn queen, Cas’ apparent wife. He still doesn’t understand a lot, though, about the exact circumstances of Cas’ marriage or what it means about Cas’ confession to him. Worse, Dean knows it’s just a matter of time before Cas and Sam figure out exactly what he did in his determination to see Cas again. He knows it won’t go over well. It doesn’t help that he hasn’t been able to get even his four hours of sleep since Cas died and can’t talk about the events of that night to Sam or Jack, even now.

Summary
Happy ending. Canon-divergent fic from 15x03 “The Rupture” where Cas is killed and possessed by Belphegor during the divorce arc. This was developed with my friend Dhruvi on tumblr.
“Belphegor looks different from when he’d first taken over. Cas’ body is dressed in an awful robe and jewelry that clinks when he moves. The oversized sunglasses are covering up Cas’ eyes.“What if I said Cas was still here?” Belphegor breathes out. Dean can almost believe it. At least the blood is gone. Belphegor had cleaned Cas up. It won’t do much, though, when Dean will have to kill his body again.
“I’d say you’re full of shit,” Dean says. He knows better. Cas was dead before getting possessed. It’s tempting, though, to believe that he can have another chance. Dean had gotten other chances to get Cas back, many of them. He’d lost them all, one by one.
Cas had thought he was dead to Dean. He’s just dead now.”

Summary
Dean is completely out of his depth with the sewing machine. He’s never even used one before this. But with Cas back from the Empty, and Jack safe with them in the Bunker, he needs something to do.

Summary
For the anniversary of Castiel's introduction. Have a finale fix-it!
Castiel can’t see. He can’t move. He doesn’t know where he is. All he can do is listen to the radio. It plays music, sometimes. Other times, he can tune in to the prayers from his family.
And maybe, somehow, the radio waves can help him get out.

Summary
Castiel is alive. He's back from the Empty, and he knows Dean loves him too. He had been so sure that Dean was going to kiss him.
He couldn't. Castiel's deal is still in effect. If Dean kisses him, or says anything back, he will die again.
Jack seems to think that Castiel will get out of the deal. Castiel knows better. His actions have consequences. To himself, and to Dean, who wants him too and still can't have him.

Summary
Castiel doesn’t know how he got from the Empty to the floor of a barn. The last thing he remembers is saying his confession before falling with Dean onto the hay. And Dean has been different since his rescue, has thrown out all boundaries he’d ever said were customary. Humans always manage to surprise Castiel. Dean surprises him most of all.

Summary
Cas moves into the bunker as his powers start to fail. Dean doesn’t know if the arrangement is as permanent as he wants it to be. He's also not sure why he keeps dreaming about his friend. All he knows is that he wants Cas to stay.
Overall warnings: canon-typical miscommunication & Dean having self-hatred issues.
Now complete!

Summary
Dean knows exactly why he’d pulled Cas out of the Empty. It’s not charity. It’s selfishness. He’d made Cas lose his paradise, the version of life the Empty had created for him with his mirage of Dean, just because Dean was too scared to be alone. Dean had promised Cas that he’d pretend for him. He’d said he’d do whatever Cas needed to be as happy here as he’d been in the Empty’s reality. But Dean doesn’t even know how to be the person Cas thinks he is.
Either Cas is lying, or his standards are impossibly low. Cas apparently thought it’d be enough for him just to be near Dean. But that’s not what love should be. It should want something back. Dean’s own feelings are irrelevant. He wants Cas, wants to be someone who deserves him. He can’t have him. He can’t construct a monologue about his reasons for loving Cas like Cas had done for him. He’s pretty sure that holding Cas’s hand would make him combust, after so long subsisting on scraps of shoulder-pats and Cas only touching him to heal him.
