    Summary

    Dean Winchester was twenty-six years old when a car accident killed his father and left him paralysed from the waist down. A year and a half later, Dean is in a wheelchair and lives in a care home in Kansas, where he spends his days waiting to die. It's only when Castiel Novak starts volunteering at the care home that Dean starts to wonder if a changed life always equals a ruined one.

    Summary

    Castiel sacrificed himself to the empty and Dean died after saving the world, again. Everything was as it should be... right?

    When Castiel is ripped from the grips of death by Jack he is, to put it simply, confused, but he's even more so when he is dragged away again only to wake up in 2001 with no memory of who he is. Along the way to unveil his identity he meets a charming and cunning Dean Winchester. As they grow closer, more of Cas' forgotten past begins to rise to the surface and he must face the question that has been looming in his subconscious, just out of reach.

    Is this his second chance?

    Post 7.17 The Born Again Identity

    As a reward from God (who may or may not be drunk) Team Free Will (and those reluctantly dragged along) end up attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

    Madness ensures.

    (In which Dean and Meg have a weird fascination with Hell, Crowley starts an underground black market, Gabriel has it out for Snape, Sam makes a female friend who doesn't die, Castiel watches Lord of the Rings, Adam gets out of the cage and Jo is the only sane one around.)

    Summary

    “Your brother is missing.”
    That’s how it starts. But now Dean’s dead, gone, or maybe he never really existed in the first place. Maybe Dean was never real, and it was always Michael. Because if Sam knows one thing, it’s that Michael is all that is left.

    S1AU tying in s4+ plot in which Dean once used to be an archangel and that’s not a good thing

    Summary


    Dean already knows that the future isn't looking good. Sam's sneaking out at night and lying about it. Dean's pretty sure the angels are dicks and that they're lying to him. It isn't until he gets a visit from his own ghost that he realizes just how bad it's going to get, and the future that was becomes part of Dean's memories of the past. Surely, with all that he knows, he can fix things—if he can stay alive and sane, that is. A season 4 AU that bumps into seasons 5 and 6. Written for the 2011 spn_gen_bigbang challenge. Art by amber1960.

    Broadly inspired by a_phoenixdragon's excellent 2010 spn_j2_bigbang piece, Perspectives, which left me feeling melancholy, and for some reason (because it never happens in her story) gave me the image of Dean in a hospital bed, quietly rejecting the comfort Sam tries to offer.

    Summary

    Castiel Novak is twenty-six years old when he's killed in the Civil War. The first soul to be laid to rest in the grounds of the new Lawrence Memorial Cemetery, his spirit remains in a liminal space—not in the living world, but not passing on, forever tasked with helping other spirits to go where he cannot.

    His vigil over the grounds of his cemetery is a long and lonely one, unable to interact with anyone who still remains in the land of the living.

    Until he meets Dean Winchester.

    Summary

    -

    From the outside Castiel Novak looks like a regular guy: a good job, two teenage kids, a nice house and a crappy car he’s way too attached to.

    But there’s one thing no one knows about him: that, over twenty years ago, he used to live next to none other than Dean Winchester – back then a brash and loud-mouthed boy and nowadays a huge movie star and Hollywood’s sweetheart.

    Castiel never bothered to tell anyone about his childhood friend because frankly, who would believe him? Probably even Dean himself already forgot about his former awkward and weird neighbor, so Castiel seriously doesn’t see any point in mentioning the whole thing ever.

    But then an interview on national TV happens where Dean reveals way more about his past than ever before … and Castiel - as well as the rest of the world - suddenly realizes that he left a much bigger impact on Dean’s life than he originally thought.

    Summary

    Chuck was gone. The Empty, Death, the Devil and Doomsday. None of them would ever come knocking at Dean’s door again.

    His life was one endless road, and he was driving down it at night in Baby with the headlights out, unable to see even a fraction of the way ahead of him. All his focus was on the rearview mirror, where Cas stood getting smaller and smaller, aglow in the setting sun that crowned him in a broken halo. Looking like a smear of golden blood against his jaw.

    And Dean thought that feeling would last forever. That he’d drive til he hit concrete hard enough to crush him back to unholy dust.

    Because Dean had forgotten the number one law of this fucked up universe, which was, that Dean Winchester was a luckier bastard than he deserved.

    -

    Cas comes back. Dean gets his shit together. We all cheer.

    Summary

    Edward guts him with his eyes, with his glare. He looks distressingly close to tears.

    “I’m not letting go of you.” Edward squeezes Roy’s wrist until it hurts. Until Edward’s adrenaline and fear shake down Roy’s skin and sink into his bones. “S-So stop—stop being a dumbass and help me—”

    The kid’s voice finally breaks open, raw and wet and scared. It strikes Roy’s core deeper than any bullet. Any knife.

    Any impact.

    Ed’s glare comes down on him fiercely. Roy is about to earn it.

    A mission goes very, very wrong.

    He lets himself do nothing but wallow for three days after Chuck is defeated. On the third day, he leaves his room, refusing to see any symbolism in it.
    "Dean what are you doing?" Sam asks.
    That's a stupid question, but Dean answers anyway. "I'm bringing him back."

    Dean's fine.

    Then he gets a piece of metal stuck through his ribs. But he doesn’t die, even though he’s pretty sure he should’ve.

    He’s still— fine. No matter what Sam thinks.

    (And Cas is still gone.)

    Summary

    Set days after the events in Shadow (1.16), Dean and Sam are trying to get as far from Chicago as they can when an unexpected and yet familiar arrival throws their world into disarray. Dean didn't ask for a glimpse into his and Sam's future, and he's still not sure he wants one, especially not when his future self starts talking about angels and miracles, like either of those things could possibly exist.

    "Okay, let's say you're right. Let's say at some point I'm going to travel into the past, meet myself, and then force myself to take a cross-country road trip with myself so that I can find some dude I refuse to talk about. The hell, Sam? Does any of that make sense?"

    Summary

    "If you think you can come into my territory and make demands, you are even more stupid than you look", the Empty says with John's voice and Sam can feel the way Dean tenses beside him even more, "Castiel knew what he's gotten himself into. He made the deal, not caring that he would leave your sorry clingy ass behind. He's mine."

    Sam's hand tightens around Dean's arm, but he knows his brother well enough to know that he's only one snarky remark away from lounging himself at the entity. So Sam does the first thing that comes to his mind.

    "Do you have that written down?"

    ---

    Sam and Dean are saving Cas from the Empty. Sam gets into a law argument. That's it. That's the fic.

    What if Dean went to Sam at Stanford for help trying to find their father, and Sam said no? Who would he turn to? Would the Devil's Gate still be opened? Would Dean still make a crossroad's deal? Would Dean still meet Castiel? These are the questions I try to answer in this series.
