Summary
“You’re one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan,
Designed and directed by his red right hand.”
It all starts with the mysterious note left on Dean’s chair.
It all ends with Dean coming to terms not only with what he’s capable of, but how much that knowledge doesn’t bother him.Series

Summary
“Maybe I know some things about myself,” he says. “And maybe you know them too. From– from rebuilding me or being in my head or just– from knowing me. From–”
“From loving you,” Cas supplies.
Dean looks at him and nods.
“Knowing and saying are not the same thing, Cas. Does that make sense?”Or: Dean Winchester comes to terms with some gender stuff.

Summary
Castiel is a shapeshifter, haunted by his mother’s murder and terrified of becoming a monster himself. Survival means pretending, and he’s learned to be anyone but himself until the night he meets Dean Winchester.
Dean is a hunter, raised to follow his father’s orders and become whatever the job demands. He doesn’t know who he is when he’s not performing, until he meets someone he calls “Blue”.
What begins as a quest for revenge turns into something else: the collision of two men hiding from the world, each desperate and terrified to be seen beneath their disguises.

Summary
As a grease monkey turned college freshman, Dean's constantly three seconds away from being stressed out of his mind. It hardly helps that he's finally figuring out his sexuality in his thirties.
What might help with that stress is a little phone number (and a big credit card bill). If he can't figure out how to be bisexual in person, he can at least give it a go over the phone, right?
(It's probably a bad idea, but he really can't help himself.)

Summary
Nothing happens at first. Nothing happens except Dean feels warm all over, like the sun-baked ground, warm in a wave from the top of his head to his toes; nothing happens except the tension that has been building up in Dean for three months, for a year, for his entire life snaps like a string being cut and he slumps forward, bonelessly relaxed.
He realizes distant, as if through a dream.
This is what it feels like. This is Cas touching his soul.
*
Cas heals injured souls. Dean's could use a touch-up.

Summary
There's a bone-deep dissatisfaction that lingers within him. He can't fill it with work, or with food, or with company, or with knowledge or stress or relief or sex. He throws himself into the nearest body for a fuck or a fight or a firm hug, and it does nothing for him. He yearns. He yearns.
(Sam feels guilty and hollow. He fails to fill the void with hunting. Cas fills it with pain.)

Summary
Dean Winchester moved to North Jersey on a whim a few years ago.
Charlie, his high-school bestie, scored him a paramedic job in one of the most violent areas in the country. Dean didn’t even blink. He’s wanted to be a medic ever since he spent his childhood patching up his dad’s various open wounds. He could tell you it’s because he’s noble, but nope — Dean just likes digging around in the squishy parts.Also, Dean’s an idiot.
His adrenaline addiction sends him straight into a dark alley one night, where he ends up on his knees in front of an ocean-eyed mafia god who looks far too eager to let (force) Dean explore the insides a bit more.Series

Summary
In the spring of 1944, the 104th Medical Battalion of the United States Army is disbanded, and its men reassigned to various infantry companies in preparation for their invasion of occupied France. For First Lieutenant Novak, this is less than helpful, as he has so far met his platoon’s designated medic a grand total of twice, and has both times found Sergeant Winchester to be the optimum combination of reckless, arrogant, and downright insufferable so as to make cohesive platoon function near impossible. When the time comes to move out, however, Castiel has to reconcile himself to the fact that men are going to go down and trust that Dean Winchester may well be the only person who can put them back together again. WW2 ETO infantry AU.

Summary
NEWLY ADDED EPILOGUE/TIMESTAMPS!
Castiel Novak didn’t know his life could hit lower than sleeping in the stockroom of the Gas-N-Sip until he's mugged one night after closing. He comes too in a laundromat, dazed and injured, in front of a worried, handsome stranger.
Dean “Cowboy Chaser” Winchester is a storm chaser known for having the best footage of the tornadoes that descend upon Tornado Alley, in the heart of the Midwest, every spring. He's built a tank--The Imp--from a 1967 Chevy to ride into the storms. His brother is normally his chase partner, but Sam is on bed rest and Dean needs help. He can’t survive and make a profit on his own. Things aren’t looking well until an injured man stumbles into the laundromat.
After some stitches, sandwiches, and stain remover, Dean offers to hire Castiel as his assistant for the storm season. It’s more than he’ll ever make at the gas station. Castiel just has to worry about runaway livestock, dangerous storms, and the nightmares he still can’t escape from the worst day of his life.
Will Castiel take this incredible offer? If he does, will they be able to work together and survive what Mother Nature can throw at them?

Summary
After a hunt goes wrong, Dean drives like he’s trying to outrun the guilt clawing at his chest. Castiel refuses to let him spiral alone.
On a dark roadside, with the Impala cooling beside them, Dean finally stops running long enough to fall apart, and Castiel stays. What begins as grounding and comfort turns into something deeper: an act of connection, trust, and chosen intimacy that helps Dean come back to himself.
Sometimes surviving means letting someone hold you through the aftermath.

Summary
Chuck is gone, Jack is dead, and Cas has left the bunker. All that remains for Dean is hunting, but even that backfires when he’s hit by a witch’s curse. The curse has him traveling through Cas’ past, doomed to witness his worst moments without being able to help.
By sheer luck, Dean finds a way to communicate with Cas, leaving him notes across time in an effort to make up for past mistakes and let Cas know he’s loved and valued. But will it be enough to change things for the better between them and end the curse that’s keeping Dean trapped?

Summary
Dean is something a late bloomer, so it makes sense that he doesn’t start university until he’s already in his late twenties. He’d planned for a business degree, something that will give him a mooring in an unstable life, but an unexplainable encounter during a class trip leads him down a different path.
Fifteen years later, history professor Dean Winchester and his best friend Charlie are both fresh off a divorce and heading back to Rome to try to recreate the magic of that long-ago summer. Older, heavier, but probably no wiser, Dean goes back to the strange statue that he’s been obsessing over to tell it how it changed his life. He’s not sure what he expected, but it certainly wasn’t for the statue to reciprocate. Or to ask Dean to show him the pleasures of the city he’s stood sentinel over for centuries.

Summary
When Dean Winchester’s friend and neighbor, Garth, moves out of their duplex, he is not expecting him to be replaced with a cranky, weed-smoking recluse with zero taste in music, but that’s what he gets. But Dean soon realizes there is more behind Castiel’s brooding stare and prickly personality. There is someone worth getting to know. Someone who needs a little TLC, even if he is too stubborn to admit it.
Castiel Novak is a survivor. He has survived his parents' tragic death, He has survived being kidnapped and tortured by his own brother, and he has survived living with the constant flow of nightmares that have followed. So Castiel can certainly survive having to live next to an annoyingly cheerful (beautiful) man, with kind green eyes and an unhealthy affinity to classic rock, who is determined to be his new friend.
Or, the one where Castiel starts a friends with benefits relationship with his new neighbor, and finally starts to heal his heart.

Summary
After Charlie's death, Dean can barely stand to even look at Sam. Fearing how dangerous he's becoming as the mark on his arm weaponises his grief and anger, Dean opts to shut himself away in Cain's house, with Castiel his only link to the world.
But Castiel discovers that he can do more than just bring Dean supplies and weather his increasingly bad moods. His touch, it turns out, brings with it the mark-numbing effect of angel grace. With this treatment, Dean can feel something other than pain and rage again.
What he feels for Castiel, though... that scares him almost as much as the mark does.Bookmarked by lainovereasy
