Summary
Castiel doesn’t know where the runaway in Dean has gone, but he’s not sure that man exists anymore. The omega in his backseat has been badly broken. He hasn’t said a word to Castiel; hasn’t protested aside from flinching, hasn’t even pleaded to be spared. He’s just… empty. Tired. Castiel can smell layers of fear, sour and old on the omega’s skin, an emotion so often felt that it’s now a permanent stain on his scent. He can only begin to imagine what Dean has been through to put him in this state of apathy.
At sixteen years old, Dean Winchester signed away his life in order to protect what he loves most. He's spent the last eleven years as the property of various alphas, each crueler than the last. Purchased by a new master that promises him nothing but safety, his life is about to dramatically change - and with any luck, it will be for the better.Series

Summary
In a world in which people evolved from both Primates and Canids, Alpha Dr. Castiel Novak has taken on the monumental task of rebuilding a society broken from years of neglect. The most Dominant Alpha in living memory, Castiel’s calling to renew his species’ dying culture is shared by mesmerizing alpha-Submissive, Dean Winchester. Always close, scene partners, unmatched colleagues, and best friends, the two men’s quiet pining for one another fools no one but themselves. Although desperately in love, alphas cannot mate with alphas, and all too soon, disaster walks into the American Caniforme Research Institute in the form of April Anderson, who is destined to ensnare Castiel whether he wants her to or not. True-Mate Triggers cannot be resisted, and a bereft Dean flees the ACRI and the agony of watching his beloved, now tied to another forever. But the Universe has its own plans, and Castiel’s young mate may prove the very catalyst that Dean and Castiel never knew they could hope for. Just as all their stars seem finally to align, they’re in for another body-slam. Enter Michael Lancet, Dean’s unexpected True-Mate, an Omega unlike any they’ve ever imagined, and the one who may hold the power to unhinge it all.

Summary
Castiel manages to escape the Empty, but on borrowed time. Before he hands over his grace, he accidentally forges an angelic bond to Dean, his new life mate, and grace tainted with humanity has no place in the angel afterlife.
The bond forces Dean and Cas to navigate new waters, as they can now see into each other’s minds and feel what the other feels. Grace sex between Dean’s soul and Cas’s grace becomes a new normal in the couple’s lives, until it causes something they never thought possible...
This is my version of a post-finale fix-it, starting after the events of 15x18 and reimagining a future for the Winchesters filled with family and love ♡ Hope you enjoy!

Summary
Dean Winchester is living his best life, content and thriving as a private chef in the Hampton’s for a prestigious couple, Chuck and Naomi Novak, and their son Michael. Asked back for his fourth summer in a row, Dean’s more than ready to tackle his daily to-do lists to keep his kitchen stocked and his meals fresh. With a paycheck good enough to cover Sam’s tuition and room and board included, Dean thinks he’s got it made, another easy summer doing what he loves best, cooking.
Until the Novak’s youngest son Castiel shows up and turns everything upside down. Sure, Dean has no trouble navigating a kitchen, but when it comes to a carefree, handsome wild card and matters of the heart, he may lose all sense of direction.

Summary
A Soulless Sam traps and attacks Castiel--Dean finds out.
This story is coda until it isn't, because I realized I wanted the boys to have a happy ending. It follows season six plot/timeline for several chapters and incorporates quotes from actual episodes. Rape, rape aftermath, and recovery are explored. Eventual smut and even some fluffiness.
Without a soul, Sam could see everything a little bit more clearly. Feelings no longer distracted him from goals. He was free to pursue anything without shame, guilt, or hesitation. He turned an analytical eye to all that lay before him, calmly calculating the movements and reactions of those around him to stay ahead of their thoughts and actions. He was always playing a role, acting through a scene, he had been for months and he was getting very good at it.

Summary
[Update: 1 Mar 2016: Rewritten/Remastered! Please reread if you've already read it because this is the final version I've been dying to turn this into. This is how I wanted this story to be, and how I imagined it, and I changed enough for it to be a new experience. Thanks!]
Dean and Castiel's relationship has evolved over time- from strangers to roommates, roommates to friends, friends to best friends. The most troublesome evolution came to pass when they went from being best friends to "We're just friends."

Summary
Castiel Novak is used to change. He's used to being the new kid in school. So when he moves with his family to the small town of Rail Pass, he doesn't expect things to be much different than the last three towns.
But then he meets Dean Winchester, an aggressive fellow student who sees Castiel as the shiny new toy he and his friends get to mess with. Castiel has had his fair share of bullies in the past, but nothing like this. He's never felt this way about a bully, or anyone for that matter, before. Maybe something's wrong with him, that he could feel so attracted to someone who makes his everyday life hell.
But then again, he sees the way Dean looks at him sometimes. And there's a lot more to Dean Winchester than meets the eye.- Language:

Summary
Maybe he didn't need to wrap his arms around Cas at night. And maybe their legs didn't need to be so tangled. But Cas had read somewhere that being that close could synchronize their heartbeats and make them calmer at night and therefore it would help them sleep better. It was for scientific reasons that they were a heaped pile of grabby octopus legs and blankets every night.
Dean and Cas have been best friends since they were six. They're now twenty and in college and sharing a bed nearly every night. Yet, they still deny that they are together. Everyone around them knows Dean and Cas are in love with each other, they are just waiting for the two to figure it out for themselves.

Summary
With a storm surge on the horizon, Dean Winchester needs to get home, but he can’t ignore the feeling in his gut urging him to turn around. The awkward, hoodie-clad homeless man has already disappeared from his rearview mirror yet something draws Dean back. Maybe it’s the fact that the guy looks lost in more ways than one, or maybe it’s something behind those intense, ocean blue eyes, but either way, Dean can’t leave the guy stranded in the impending downpour.
Castiel Novak is running away from his problems. Far away. It’s a decision that made sense at the time, but with his resources running low, no place to stay, and the sky about to rain down on his head, he’s beginning to rethink his life choices. All seems lost until a green eyed local offers him a place to stay dry for the night.
This chance meeting between two strangers shifts the course of both their lives in a way that neither could’ve ever expected, and as they struggle to deal with the secrets of their past while navigating their relationship into the future, they come to find that maybe together they’re the perfect storm.- Language:

Summary
Or, a year in the life of Dean Winchester
Dean’s bi: sexual and polar. He’s got a string of hospitalizations under his belt. He’s a felon. He’s got a secret. And he just might have a crush on the wry, socially awkward, and devastatingly handsome artist who lives in the apartment below his. But Dean doesn’t have friends, and he certainly doesn’t have relationships. He has what his therapist Pam calls “impulsive, reckless sexual interactions.” His attempts at meaningful connection have resulted in ruined friendships, broken hearts, restraining orders, and lifechanging ramifications. Dean’s too focused on holding down a job and relearning how to live by himself after years of being babied by his little brother to worry about romance, right? Right.

Summary
“We did good, Dean,” Sam says. “We got him back.”
Dean huffs a hollow laugh, because yeah, that’s always what it’s about, isn’t it? Cas or Sam or Dean getting themselves lost or dead, and then taking turns dragging each other back from the brink. He shrugs, shoving his hands into his pockets.
“We got him back, yeah,” he says. Sam nods, watching him. “So now what?”

Summary
Sam and Jess are getting married and Dean couldn’t be any happier for them. Honestly, they’re kind of disgustingly perfect for each other and Dean’s pretty damn excited about staying with them the week before the wedding. He’s Sam’s best man, of course, and he doesn’t even mind that Jess has her own best man to share in all the organisational duties. The more the merrier, right?
Except Dean must have done something to epically piss off the universe because Jess’s best man just happens to be Castiel friggin’ Novak. He’s got even hotter since High School, but apparently no friendlier and if Cas wants to spend the week pretending like they’ve never met before? Fine. Two can play at that game.

Summary
Sam and Gabe just bought a new house in a quaint, small town that boasts the logo, ‘Safest Town in the USA’. Their brothers come to visit and can’t help but notice just how peculiar the place is. Charming Acres is...idyllic (according to Sam), Stepford (according to Gabe), strangely picturesque (according to Cas), and just fuckin’ nutballs (according to Dean). Their picture-perfect neighbors are actually sneaking around at night, the kids have imaginary friends, and the kindly older neighbors across the street are obsessed with Christmas, even in the middle of July! When one of the neighbors dies mysteriously, it takes more than the town’s local police to solve it. Never fear! Sam, Gabe, Cas, and Dean are on the case. Oh, and the grumpy old men down the road (Bobby and Rufus) are willing to lend a hand...and an insult.
