Summary
This is a re-work of Season 12 moving forward. I always thought it was a mistake to bring Mary back. Dean never needed to look back in that sense. She never treated him like a child or helped heal the broken inner one. So I always thought, he should have been able to be happy and be a Dad.
I tried really hard to keep the cannon of everything that happened before the start of this work. But with that said, some stuff might just be wrong. I tried, I'm only human. I did my best but I'm sure I've missed a few things. I have read so many amazing works on here that I think some things from those have stuck in my brain and are now cannon =) Whoops.

Summary
“An angel walks into a saloon, what ever shall the punchline be?” a dirty drawl comes from across the room as the doors swing, singing squeaky tunes behind him.
Castiel didn’t want to come here, to Earth, to America, and specifically to Wichita, Kansas—Yet his mission demanded it.
It's a very tying—I mean trying time for him.

Sam’s big brother was wearing his cockiest, most insouciant, completely bullshit smile on the day he told Sam, “So, uh. I’m gonna ask Cas to marry me.”
Sam dropped the grimoire he'd been browsing on his foot.

Summary
"Cas is alive," Sam sounds as bewildered now as the first time he said it, however long ago. One minute, ten minutes, an hour. Dean wouldn't know. Time seems to be folding past him in unpredictable bursts. He's not convinced this isn't a dream, actually. No way it can be real.
Right? No way Cas would do that to them. To him.
Not after what he said. Not ever.
Right?

Summary
It’s only Ed and Harry who think they’re real paranormal investigators, Dean’s just along for the ride. The abandoned buildings are cool, and it’s a pretty good distraction from the indignities of his real life– taking care of Sammy, keeping up at school, and trying to figure out if he drunkenly confessed his gay feelings to that one weird guy who keeps showing up at Charlie’s events.

Summary
Despite their age gap and differing social circles, Castiel has struck up a warm friendship with Mary Winchester, a wealthy widowed socialite. When Castiel needs a place to stay, Mary invites him into her house, where there’s loads of spare room. Castiel’s aware that they make an odd pair, but he doesn’t fully realize how things look to outsiders, especially to Mary’s eldest son. All Dean Winchester sees is that his mom has apparently hooked up with a hot young guy (who is totally Dean’s type) and that makes things… weird.

Summary
AU where Dean is the angel and Castiel is a hunter. Father Castiel Novak of the Vatican's 23rd 'Huntsmen' Division knows that he belongs in Hell. He isn't entirely sure what to make of the angel that pulled him out of it, or his increasingly dysfunctional fellow operatives, or the fact that it seems that he's accidentally kick-started the apocalypse. It's going to take more than prayer and salt rounds to fix up this particular mess-

Summary
Castiel liked quiet. He liked predictable. You could probably call him boring and not be wrong, but Cas didn't care. He was happy that way.
Until one day, his street got torn up as a construction crew moved in, loud and persistent and, as far as Cas was concerned, specifically sent to ruin his life. Especially one construction worker who seemed to take that job personally.
Dean had to be boring. He had to be quiet, predictable, and boring. Because those were the pillars of stability.
With a bipolar diagnosis and the baggage of everything he blew up on the road to getting it, he knew better than to take the little things for granted.Then, a regular job on a regular street brought C. Novak into his life. C. Novak, who was rude, infuriating, and, unfortunately, smoking hot.
Cas and Dean both had to learn to make room for things that mattered, even if they weren't little joys. Even if they could be disruptive. And annoying. And they had to learn to navigate the room that was made for them.
Somehow, between the arguments and minor freak-outs, they both had to learn how to make space for something bigger than routine.

Summary
Team Free Will can’t seem to catch a break.
Metatron is in the wind. The brothers are at an impasse. Dean is succumbing to The Mark, and Castiel is on angelic borrowed time.
So when Dean finds a missing persons’ case that might just be a lead, Castiel is all too happy to go along for the ride.
Their so-called milk run takes a sour turn when they discover that the missing teen’s old CRT TV is a conduit for an unknowable force that wants, very badly, to make itself known to them, and worse, their secrets known to each other.
And it’s going to use every available wavelength to do it.
Including Castiel.

Summary
Dean Winchester has hunted monsters his entire life. One rogue mage shouldn't be a problem. The bounty is generous. The job should be easy. Dean catches him on a cold night and thinks the hard part is over.
Castiel Novak doesn't expect mercy. He's made his peace with what's waiting for him in the capital. He hasn't made his peace with his failure at Carver's Hollow, but that's a different kind of sentence.
The road to Alderwatch is long. Long enough for Dean to start doubting everything he was sure of. He has hunted things that wanted to kill him, but he's never hunted anything that kept saving his life instead.

Summary
Dean doesn’t expect anyone to believe that he saw a UFO. Hell, he wouldn’t believe it either if he hadn’t seen one when he was just a kid. On the other hand, one not-so-close encounter with the third kind doesn’t mean he isn’t fit to do his job, so he’s not thrilled about being slapped with desk duty for it. But when it turns out there’s more to his new officemate, Castiel, than an inability to organize his filing cabinets, Dean thinks that this might be his chance to finally get some answers.

Summary
Cas has been hovering around Dean more than usual, silently watching him with growing intensity. Dean’s been patching up Baby and trading snark with Sam. Cas doesn’t understand the ache in his chest when Dean laughs or when Dean wipes grease on his jeans.
After a particularly flustering encounter (Dean tossing Cas a wrench with a wink), Cas appears in the kitchen with a grave expression and solemnly asks Sam and Bobby:
“How does one... court a human?”
Sam spits out his drink. Bobby drops his newspaper. Chaos begins.Bookmarked by CONFUZZLED_17

Summary
Cas swallows again, selfishly holding a bit tighter around the hunter as he mumbles, “I’m just worried about Jack,”.
Lie, Dean detects immediately. He can tell that it’s a lie. He just came in and found Cas crying with the page about himself—that Dean earnestly wrote—in the Bestiary open on the table; what the hell would Jack have to do with that?
Dean next speaks with a gentle suspicion in his voice, sounding not like he’s accusing the angel but instead like he’s opening the floor for him to tell the truth without judgment. “That’s all?” he says softly, voice comforting and familiar by Cas’s ear.
“...Yeah,” Cas says, lying again.
(TLDR: Cas dealing with his secret of the Empty deal, until he can't anymore. Lots of angsty hurt/comfort, tears, feels, and softness.)

Summary
Dean Winchester grows up under heavy expectations, carrying responsibility for his family and hiding his own exhaustion behind discipline and routine. An unexpected collision in the hallway introduces him to Castiel Novak, whose kindness and quiet attention begin to change the way Dean sees himself. What starts as embarrassment and denial slowly becomes recognition, trust, and love.
Through friendship, challenges, and moments of vulnerability, Dean learns that he is more than the role his father set for him. With Cas at his side, he discovers pride, belonging, and the courage to imagine a future shaped not by orders, but by choice.

He’s got a shotgun in his hand and his mother’s broken rosary around his neck. His eye is cut open and dripping, and he’s got forty years of Hell fresh in his mind.
Do not. Fuck with him.

It's been four months since he died, when Castiel wakes up, six feet below the ground, alive. Alive without an explanation, with a mysterious itch under his skin and rumors of a whisper, a whisper of something so powerful, that demons themselves are running scared.
Then he meets the thing that pulled him out—a spitfire angel named Dean, who turns out to be nothing to run from.With his sister Anna at his side, Gabriel at his back, and three angels in their corner, they're gonna take the fight to them. And they're gonna show God just exactly how they feel about his plan for fate and destiny.
