    Summary

    Some people lose their voice in the world all at once. Others, little by little. It can be challenging to overcome that kind of loss. One of them has been torn into a sabbatical of silence. The other is parched for sentences that feel like his. But something happens when they meet at the Groves Art Center, where figures are drawn and quietude becomes invitation. What begins in stillness unspools into passionate awakening—with art and ache, with the language that lives between two people who don’t need to speak to understand. This is a love story told in glances and graphite, in margins and motion. A connection that redraws the edges of intimacy and rewrites their hearts from the inside out.

    This story updates every Tuesday!

    Summary

    Two months after Dean is dragged to Hell, he crawls out of his own grave with a mysterious handprint branded to his shoulder. A strange being named Castiel claims that he pulled Dean early to stop the literal Apocalypse.

    Now Dean must figure out a way to derail the divine destinies of him and his brother. They must find a way to stop Lilith without killing her, while all of Heaven and Hell want Dean back in the basement so The Plan can continue.

    The only one in his corner is Castiel, but can this stupidly handsome stranger be trusted? After all, no one else but Dean can even see or hear him...

    [AKA A S4 AU retelling with healthy brotherly bonding, tons of TFW feels, a very sweet slow burn, and Cas in a waistcoat!]

    UPDATE! CH 1 contains an embedded piece of wonderful fanart gifted to me!

    Summary

    Above the picture-perfect little mountain town of Heaven’s Hollar, a man lives off the grid. Castiel is a mute mountain man living with faithful sidekick Pitbull Dozer, just trying to get through his life when a surprise December blizzard catches everyone off guard. What exactly will he do when a strange man collapses on his porch in the middle of the storm?

    Dean is a down-on-his-luck author, and trouble has visited him threefold: his agent has given him five days to submit a new book outline or be let go; he’s had a major argument with his best friend Adam about his brother Sam AGAIN, and he’s crashed his car into an embankment when a blizzard hits out of nowhere.

    Dean, Castiel, and Dozer must learn to trust each other to survive until the plows come to set Dean free.

    Will they be able to overcome their pasts to have a potential future?
