Summary
For a long time, Castiel thought that every earthly possession other than the immediately necessary was excess to requirement. But Dean – Dean who named his car, who keeps a photograph of his mother in his wallet, some thirty-plus years after her death, who still has the crumpled ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign with a sleeping pelican emblazoned on it from the Microtel outside of Roanoke where he first kissed Castiel, clumsy and unsure, under the unsteady fluorescence of an exhausted bathroom bulb – is sentimental.
It puzzles Castiel, where Dean draws the line between what is meaningful and what it is worthless.

Summary
Every year, for many years after, someone would inevitably shout at a table mate, DON’T EAT THE TURKEY! Or someone else, typically Jo, would start moaning inappropriately around forkfuls of pie until Ellen broke out the full name warning, but she was never quite able to do it without choking down her own amusement.
Dean took it all in stride, what did he care? That had been the Thanksgiving that changed everything in his life for the better. Even if he was never going to live it down.- Language:

Summary
This is the day that marked the Holy and Blessed Union of Dean Winchester and Jo Harvelle.
The merging of prominent bloodlines is always a grand occurrence, but breeding pedigree hunter families like Winchester and Harvelle is something to be rejoiced. It is also something to be meticulously planned, which thankfully the Host is very good at.
Or, the romantic comedy where Dean Winchester and Jo Harvelle are destined to get married, Castiel is given the task of playing matchmaker and fails terribly, the entire Heavenly Host becomes a sitcom audience, God warns against male pregnancy, and Jimmy Novak is incredibly unimpressed with angels in general.

Summary
The worst part, Dean discovers, of getting randomly assigned a Barbie premiere shift turns out to not be avoiding the garish pink Barbie merch or sweet-talking someone into trading shifts with him so that he can work Oppenheimer, but rather that the only coworker even willing to consider swapping is Samandriel's surprisingly hot cousin, Castiel.
Which is kind of a problem, because it means Dean has to stop being tongue-tied long enough to, you know, actually sweet-talk Castiel into swapping.

Summary
“Okay,” Claire says. “Headset, headset, I need a headset now!”
Dean chews on half a piece of jerky like it’s nothing, like he has no stake in whether she finds the goddamn headset or not.
Claire walks right up to him and tears the jerky out of his mouth. “I know you know where they are,” she says, the jerky crumbling into bits that rain down on the Bunker floor. Claire has had a very long day—a very long weekend, in fact, which is ending with the wildest plan to solve a case that she has ever had the pleasure of concocting.
“Jack’s got all the electronics,” Dean huffs.
“I know you’ve got a headset around here somewhere, Winchester. I’ve seen you on your Walkman!”
Jack’s voice floats to them from the cracked door to his room. “Um, Claire? The bitrate’s changed again.”
Claire yanks the container of beef jerky off of the table. “Damnit, Dean Winchester! Come help your son become a video game streamer on the internet, or so help me God we’re not going to save this ghost!”
