Summary
Dean was intimately familiar with guilt. It came along with hunting, especially when it wasn't a clean cut monster kill and innocents got involved. But this guilt was unlike anything he'd ever dealt with before.
When Cas died in the Bunker's library, an angel blade in his chest and the Mark screaming in Dean's ears, the guilt drove him into hiding. He disappeared and isolated himself like an animal secluding itself for death.
He makes a prison of nature for himself in the woods and expects to never see another soul again.
But fate has other plans, plans that include Castiel.

Yes I'm Still Mad About the Supernatural Finale by TheSilverQueen
Fandom: Supernatural, Supernatural (TV 2005)
10 Sep 2022
Summary
Here I was, happily minding my own business, when Supernatural dropped the love confession episode and I instantly was struck with Destiel Derangement Syndrome and fell head over heels back into the Supernatural trashfire. Then the finale happened, and well, the less said about that the better.
So! Here's my series where I fix it. Because YES I'M STILL MAD and also I have many ideas.
1) One does not simply walk into the Empty = My Orpheus & Eurydice take on Dean dragging Castiel out of the Empty
2) Mirror, Mirror = Dean uses a magic mirror to rescue Castiel from the Empty- Words:

Summary
Season 9 AU. Still relatively new to humanity, Castiel struggles with both Dean’s confusing behaviour and the loss of his angelic faculties. When a pissed-off witch restores his ability to see the supernatural, the curse seems like a blessing. He can help his friends again – and when Dean’s lies blow up in his face and Sam is once again left hovering between life and death, Cas is happy to be useful. But his abilities keep getting stronger, and they might just be more than a human brain can handle.

Summary
Dean Winchester should have nothing to prove. He's the brightest star at COVEN Modelling, and that's after flaming out on his previous catwalk career. He's the comeback kid. Or so he’d like to think, until the spectre of what derailed his first career and poisoned the closest friendship of his life comes back to haunt him...
Castiel Novak has nothing to lose. He finally cut ties with his family's fashion empire and burned it down on the way out. COVEN is his last chance. That, and Dean works there. The man has been a rival longer than he was a friend, but if Cas really wants a fresh start, he'll have to clear the air…

Summary
“It frustrates me,” Cas mutters, “how the same sensation can feel sometimes good, and sometimes not.”
Dean’s hand is still rubbing slowly down the length of his spine, like he’s petting the valley between the wings he can’t see. “Well, that’s just par for the course,” Dean rumbles. “Sometimes a body wants touch and sometimes it wants to be left the fuck alone.”
Cas always wants touch. At least from Dean. He doesn’t say so. “It frustrates me how much good and bad I can feel at the same time.”
“Oh, buddy,” Dean says. “Yeah.”
(After the perfect darkness of the Empty, Cas finds the world a little...overwhelming. Dean tries to help.)

Summary
Eight weeks ago, a man found himself on the front porch of a house he'd never seen. With no idea who he was or how he'd gotten there, he could only accept what the police told him: His name was James Novak, and he'd been missing for years.
Temporarily housed and working in a shelter, he suffers from recurring nightmares about killing a man named Dean, believing he must've murdered him. But after he's recognized by a young woman at the shelter, the real Dean turns up looking for him.

Summary
Memento mori = remember you must die.
Part 1,2,3 are about this latin phrase ^ and of the repeating cycle of Neil’s struggles facing the inevitable deaths as he finds himself stuck in a horrid time loop and how he fights to escape it. (Part 2 is Andrew’s pov of couple of loops and part 3 is Aaron’s pov on a certain loop)
Memento vivere = Remember to live.
The last part of this series: continues right after Neil escapes the loop and is given the chance to heal from the mental cuts each death created from the painful journey and added trauma to the mix of already existing wounds.
A lesson of how precious life can be and to cherish it because at the end of the day we got one life and it's a shame to waste it over the fear of losing it.‘Nobody promised tomorrow, so live it like its the last one’

Summary
Growing up in a small town in Kansas, Dean learned from a young age that there was only one rule that couldn’t be broken, one place he couldn’t go - through the forest, to the long-abandoned Angel’s Hollow. But when Sam disappears, Dean’s left with no choice but to follow his brother's tracks through the dangers of the wood; little does he know that the most dangerous creature of all lurks not among the trees, but in the Hollow itself. Dean sets Sam free, at the cost of his own liberty - and, bound by magic, resigns himself to living out the rest of his days in the Hollow, at the mercy of the being within. The angel of Angel’s Hollow, however, has a story - is a prisoner, too, as much as Dean is. Only one thing can free them both - but it is impossible. For, after all: who could ever learn to love a beast?

Summary
“I know how that is. Husbands: can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em. Mine’s the same way. Probably would’ve stormed out of here sooner than yours did.”
Her words send Dean reeling, knocking the air out of him in a way strangers haven’t been able to do in a very long time. He can’t even find the words to correct her until she’s in the middle of another sentence.
“He’s not my husband.” She blinks at him. “I mean, we aren’t even together. We’re just friends,” Dean clarifies. For the life of him, he can’t figure out why it sounds unbelievable to his own ears.
---
Five times Dean corrects someone about his relationship with Cas, and one time he realizes he doesn't need to.

Summary
In a world where the first words your soulmate will say to you get inscribed on your wrist at 16, knowing if you've met "the one" should be easy. But when is Dean Winchester's life ever that?
Because the thing is, it's the first words they say to you face-to-face that count--not over text message or video chat or any of the ways he's been communicating with Cas since they met online.
The night before they are supposed to see each other in-person for the first time, his mind won't shut off--too busy retracing the four words on his skin over and over again that read, "What you got there?"
It didn’t sound like something Cas would say—nor did the child-like scrawl it was written in look like he imagined Cas’s handwriting. But how could it possibly be anybody else?

Summary
A week ago, Dean was pulled out of Hell. Now, he’s apparently woken up in 2018, and the angel that a mere twenty-four hours beforehand had threatened to chuck him back into the pit is sleepily pouring himself coffee and wearing Dean’s second-favourite Zeppelin shirt. It all seems like a perfect happy ending, but with Hell’s scars still so fresh, Dean can’t imagine how he could have possibly gotten there.
At the same time, the Dean who went to sleep in the bunker, right next to Cas, wakes up on Bobby’s couch in 2008. He’s instantly bombarded with questions by a Lilith-obsessed brother and a man who’s been dead for years, and must decide between keeping his finally-perfect life intact, and the lives he could save by re-writing history.
Regardless of these choices, both Deans are trapped in the wrong decade, and their only way back lies with a Castiel still very much under Heaven’s thumb – one who might find the future Dean describes difficult to believe.

Andrew isn't a renowed author. Sure, he has his fans here and there, a few hardcore readers, but he's not famous or internationally known.
So, when he stumbles across his own book in a place where it absolutely shouldn't be and in a language it absolutely wasn't translated to, he makes it his personal mission to find the person behind it.

Summary
It's been ten years since Watford graduation, a whole decade since Simon last saw Baz, his boarding school roommate. And yeah--he thinks about Baz a lot. He's the reason Simon realised he's queer, after all. So accidentally stumbling into Baz's barre class? Sure. It affects him. Of fucking course it does.
Baz, on the other hand, is absolutely unaffected, thank you very much, and yes--of course that's an all-out falsehood because fuck. How could he look at those moles and those curls and that horrifying coordination and remain unmoved? He's not a fucking robot, for fuck's sake. I mean, really--have you seen Snow is 5-inch inseams? Have you?
This is the story of Baz and Simon. Of slutty athletic wear and supreme thirsting. Of social work and barre classes. Of friendship and accidental dating. Of risotto and sofa snuggles. Of two people who used to know each other, who are learning each other anew.
This is the story of two people who find someone to hold their hand in the darkness.
