Summary
High up on the cliff that borders the ocean and the quiet fishing village, there stands a lone bird statue facing away from the ocean, wings spread open as if it were mid-flight. His mother always told him to remember two important things when visiting the statue:
One: It liked being pat on the head.
Two: It can grant wishes if you ask nicely. Sometimes.
But Xiao thinks there’s a third important thing that should be added to the list:
Three: If you talk to it, it’ll use the wind to talk back to you. And it really, really likes to talk.

Summary
Twenty-three years of head-over-heels, devastating devotion and love, love, love for the man with bright eyes and dark hair. Fourteen years of friends, best friends, of always together. One moment of rejection.
Nine years of apart. Nine years of heartbreak, nine years of continents away, of not speaking, of no acknowledgement, no interaction, no closure, no peace. No happiness. Nine years of Dean’s life entering motions, going through them, constant, cold and mechanic, like clockwork. Nine years of alone.
God. Nine years. A lot has changed. And yet Dean still loves Cas just the same. Even if his heart hurts all kinds of different.
On the day of Jimmy Novak's funeral, Dean sees Cas for the first time in nine years. He adored Castiel the moment he met him, at only four years old. But after fourteen years of friendship destroyed by one moment of heartbreak, and after nine years of silence, Dean is convinced Cas will want nothing to do with him. And it's killing him.

Summary
Silent.
The coffin is silent.The ocean is silent, save for the constant hum of pressure, which is almost worse.
Dean keeps his eyes shut. He breathes, tells himself he's gotta get used to this, he's gotta breathe, he's gotta calm down. But still he trembles, because the concept of forever—it's only this now.
This prison.Nobody's fault but his own.
Dean thought he could do this. But it's been barely a week and he's panicking. He's breathing, or at least he thinks he is, but no air is filling his lungs. He's just gasping uselessly, heart pounding too fast, mind scrubbed of everything except fear. Maybe there’s no air left at all.
Dean's phone is dead now, though he'd conserved it for as long as he could. It's so dark and so small in here, too small, and he's trapped, trapped forever in here.

Summary
Dean is a rock star with a bad reputation in the tabloids and his contract's up for renewal. Cas is an out-of-work actor with two big-budget flops under his belt. Their publicist comes up with a solution -- pretend to date to temper Dean's reputation and bolster Cas' star power.
But Dean's habits are exactly the kind of thing Cas hates and Cas' closed-off professionalism makes him Dean's definition of a buzzkill. Not to mention that when Dean finds someone attractive, he likes to fuck it out of his system. And Cas, well, he made his agent promise to pull him from the arrangement if things get too real.
