    In which Dean has the hots for a librarian named Cas, Cas may or may not have the hots for a mechanic named Dean, and Gabriel joins Sam in the peanut gallery in the hopes that he might just get to do a horizontal tango of his own.

    Summary

    Dean wasn’t the type of person who did this kind of thing. He just wasn’t. GISH?? Ugh. The whole thing was just further proof that Dean would do anything his brother wanted him to do. Why else would he be in a Stormtrooper costume, calling up his ex-girlfriend for a private yoga class? Had he been stuck in a rut that long? Given that he’d been pining for the same freakin’ guy, his professor and coworker no less, for three long years… maybe.

    Cas was definitely the type of person who did this kind of thing, not that many people knew that. He was one of the most well-respected professors at KSU. His students and coworkers didn’t need to know that he was captain of a GISH team, or that he knitted kinky accessories and made art with his online friends. His TA certainly didn’t need to know either. Just professionalism, of course. Nothing at all to do with the failed attempt at a relationship, three years of pining, and frequent inappropriate daydreams.

    A two-person love triangle with online friendships, costumes, and a lot of glitter.

    Summary

    It starts with Cas’s obsession with the new café in town. Or maybe it starts with Dean’s obsession with Cas. Or, perhaps, it starts with the first peaceful autumn Dean’s experienced since he was four. It definitely starts with a man and the former angel who loves him.

     

     

     

    Or, the one where Dean finally has the balls to tell Cas how much he’s loved (spoiler: it’s a lot). Plus, cookie experiments, sad girl autumn music, colorful foliage, and other fall things.

    Summary

    Jack is 18, and he just got a job at the fire department. He's excited but also terrified, because his shift partner is even more intimidating than he expected. Jack has a lot to learn about firefighting and EMS, but underneath it all he's just searching for a sense of belonging.
    Dean has been a firefighter for a long time. He's not interested in explaining the things he knows by heart to the new kid. His frustration, though, might be a symptom of something else: the gradual realization that he may live and die without a life partner, and without ever coming to terms with his sexuality. Enter Cas.
    Cas is Jack's adoptive father, and on the surface it seems he has everything figured out. He's openly gay, owns a small but successful coffee shop, and has a lovely home where he lives with his son. But he has a tumultuous past, one that he's never fully been able to escape. No one has ever told him that maybe it's not avoidance he should be working toward, but acceptance.

    Summary

    This is the knit store AU that no one asked for but I wrote anyway, where Dean, Sam and Mary sell yarn and teach knitting and crochet. Dean’s also a firefighter, because who doesn’t love a man in uniform? Sam walks dogs. But just what is Mary doing at Surekill exterminators?

    There’s Destiel and Saileen romance. Hijinks and happy times, with just enough angst and drama to keep the story going. A happy ending guaranteed.

    Selling yarn, knitting things. The family business.
