Summary
Bradley shrugs. “No one there knows about us yet. We didn’t really get together until after we graduated, and I don’t know about you, but I haven’t really mentioned to anyone that I’m dating the Jake Seresin.”
“Are you trying to decide how to tell them?” Jake asks.
Bradley settles back into his chair. “Actually, I was considering what would happen if we didn’t.”
“If we didn’t tell them?”
A mischievous grin appears on Bradley’s face, and holy shit, that’s another one of Jake’s favorite expressions.
“I was thinking about challenging you to a competition.”
Jake grins. “I’m listening.”

Summary
As a kid, Dean’s dreams were pretty straightforward: food, a roof over his head, and maybe – if he really let himself dream big – a family that wouldn’t kick him out the second he became more trouble than he was worth. College? Not on his radar. Suddenly he’s here, though – on a football scholarship and faced with the possibility that this time he might get to stay.
For someone more well-adjusted it would be a dream come true. For Dean it’s a nightmare of desperately keeping up appearances while he’s drowning in other people’s expectations.
At least until a game of Truth or Dare sends him face-first into the arms of Castiel Novak. Senior. Resident (ex-)drug dealer. Obnoxious literature major. Heavily tattooed and everything Dean is trying to leave behind.
Dean needs a favor and Castiel is all too willing to deliver. Unfortunately the offer comes with strings attached that go well beyond the fake relationship that Castiel asks for in return.

Summary
"You seriously expect me to believe you don't remember?" Mina sneers as she takes a fucking aggressive bite of chicken. "It was weird. Even for you."
Um... Ouch. The fuck? He'd take it more offensively, but he thinks he remembers his high school teacher saying all geniuses are a little eccentric. Same shit. "Girl, no. You know what molly does to me!" He slaps his hand on the table in frustration. He wishes she'd just fucking tell him what he did so he can eat her out, and they can move-
"So, you don't remember busting in me when your little roomie walked in on us?" She interrupts his train of thought, her words causing him to drop his chicken because whaaattt? That did not happen.
He says as much. "That's crazy!" he defends with both his hands up. Is this one of her mind games?

Summary
Nam-gyu's eyes shoot open and he lets out an involuntary yelp. Any ache in his body dissipates as if it were never present to begin with. Thanos is in front of him, his lips pulled back into a smile and a familiar shine in his eyes. He's pumping his fist out rhythmically to the blaring music, jerking his body around to it. Nam-gyu's heart is beating harshly in his chest and he lifts shaky hands out of his pockets to feel his pulse. His stomach doesn't hurt, his knuckles aren't bruised or covered in anyone else's blood, and most notably, Thanos is alive.

Summary
Gone, gone. He can’t feel his hands. Gone, gone.
Is there a word for the absence of an echo? When you call into a vast, dark space and expect an answer, even just a reflection of your own voice, but nothing will call back to you? These are Dean’s thoughts. This is the world.
Wall at his back. Shuddering. Gone. Hands numb, shaking. Bereft of tears. Cas gone. Which means love gone. Forever.
Wall at his back and he can’t stop trembling. Numb. It could be seconds, or minutes, or hours. It feels like years. Time dissolves around him, the world dissolves around him. Cas. Gone.
And only the absence of an echo of the world, left.
.
Fixing the events of 15x19 to give the characters believable arcs and the stories they deserved (including Michael because WOW) and the events of 15x20 so that, essentially, they never happened and Dean grieved properly before getting to live out his days with the love of his life, on earth.

Summary
Dean is really trying to listen to Sam talk about organic vegetables his fiancé wants, but his attention is brought to a commotion near the front of the store. There is a loud crash, like glass breaking. Immediately, Dean is on edge, his hand hovering over his concealed gun. He takes a few slow steps towards the end of the aisle, but doesn’t make it far before someone turns into the aisle from the opposite side. Dean turns to ask if the man is okay.
The words get stuck somewhere in Dean’s throat, his eyes going wide. The man is wearing a suit and a long, tan trench coat. His tie is blue like his eyes and his hair is sticking up in all directions, completely wild and untamable in a way that has Dean swallowing the lump in his throat. The way this man walks, almost at a run, is like he’s on the most important mission of his life.
“Dean, are you still there?” Sam asks, shaking Dean out of his trance.
“I- um,” Dean starts, but suddenly there’s a large, strong hand on his shoulder and he’s being manhandled up against the shelf of bread.

Dean’s plans for the future have always been pipe dreams and bravado. He kind of abstractly wanted to live through this - whatever Cas or Sam thinks or accuses him of, he didn’t want to die; he just expected to.

For All You Young Hockey Players Out There, Pay Attention by thursdaysfallenangel
Fandoms: Supernatural
23 Jul 2022
Tags
Summary
Dean Winchester knows two things about hockey, two things his dad made sure he knew. One, hockey is a guy’s sport, and two, hockey is family. Hockey meant Sam and Bobby and Benny and Victor and Gabriel and hell, his entire team. So when Victor gets traded, Russian-star-turned-new-teammate Castiel Krushnic becomes a threat. As much as Dean hates him for that, the longer he sticks around, the more he begins to threaten that first rule too. Dean’s been taught his whole life that those who play hockey should not be captivated by deep accented voices and the way a guy handles his stick, so how the hell is he supposed to justify what he’s starting to think about Cas? All Dean wanted at the beginning of the season was to win, and now all he wants to do is figure out how he feels about Cas and how to deal with it without ruining his career and tearing his family apart.

Summary
In his final year of college, Dean Winchester’s got a lot of decisions to make: what he’s going to do with his life, where he’s going to do it, and most importantly, which girl he’s going to do... right now. And later tonight. And the next night. And the next—
When new transfer student Castiel Novak shows up first in his class, and then his friend group, Dean can’t help but see it as an infiltration. Something is up with Castiel, and he’s going to find out what. More accurately, he’s going to enlist his best and longest suffering hacker friend, Charlie Bradbury, to do it for him.
Not a single one of Dean’s suspicions has anything to do with the fact that upon their first meeting, Castiel insults his shoes, his general existence, and his masculinity by— looking at him like that.

Summary
In 2009, months after rescuing the Righteous Man from Hell, Castiel rebels against Heaven’s plan and chooses to help Dean Winchester. He is immediately killed by the archangel Raphael for his transgressions.
But then God brings him back to life—with a catch. Castiel can return to Heaven and ask for forgiveness, or continue to help the Winchesters, alienating himself from the only home he’s ever known. To help him make his decision, God sends Castiel back in time three years ago.
Now in 2006, Castiel is faced with gaining the trust of a younger, skeptical, pre-hell Dean. Without the threat of an apocalypse or avenging archangels, Castiel accompanies the Winchesters on a case and wonders if he truly has a place with them, or if he’s only an angel too blinded by his devotion to a human.
