Summary
At Sam's suggestion, Dean and a newly-human Castiel go undercover at a couples' retreat in Vermont to investigate several unexplained disappearances. Between listening to Cas affirm their relationship goals to a group of strangers and putting his hands all over Dean during couples' yoga, not to mention all the damn hippie food he's had to choke down, Dean's not sure he's ever felt more out of his element. Oh, and did he mention there was only one bed?

Summary
Jack pulls Cas out of the Empty, just in time to save Dean. With Dean unable to live without him, ready to die on that rebar, neither of them expected to live to speak about Cas’s confession. But he’s back.
After six months of pure hell without Cas, Team Free Will deserves a vacation. Along the road, with the confession looming and Cas unabashedly in love, Dean is forced to confront his own feelings and the trauma that made him the man he is. He’s tried for years to show Cas the worst of him, to warn him. To prove that he is not worthy. And yet, Cas always came back. He didn’t want the perfect, clean, Righteous Man. In his final moments, from the very first meeting, he saw straight through to the core of Dean.
And he loved it anyway.
This is the story of how Dean Winchester learns to be free.
This is how Dean learns to be loved.

Summary
The world is empty. Castiel’s sacrifice has left them reeling. The aftermath of Jack’s detonation creates something in him that he doesn’t understand. Dean cedes all leadership to Sam, lost in the numb haze of guilt and grief. Sam’s renewed determination carries them all, and he refuses to accept any outcome that isn’t the world put to rights and his family, all of them, together again.
The three of them aren’t all that’s left, however; Michael finds that his personal freedom and refusal to fight come at too high a cost. Suppressed voices fight to be heard, and Death’s absence creates a unique if morbid opportunity.
Earth is a necropolis, Heaven is collapsing in on itself, and victory over Chuck won’t be enough to repair a crumbling universe, nor will returning to old regimes be enough to prevent a free world from repeating its mistakes. The actions and decisions determining the shape of reality can no longer be restricted to a road that always leads to the Winchesters.

Summary
You will not play a passive role in your own fate.
You flee through the woods, desperate to get away from your kidnappers, from the hell they want to drag you to. You will choose anything but that, even if it means taking the biggest risk of your life as you unknowingly approach a Gothic castle and ignore its clear warning of danger.
You expect to be turned away, left to fend for yourself alone in a strange country inhabited by terrifying, otherworldly creatures.
What you don't expect, is to be taken in and cared for by one of them.

Summary
Sam is tired of Dean and Cas not communicating--especially when their fighting almost causes Dean to run them off the road during the events of 12x10. So, he comes up with a plan. Lately, the internet has been buzzing about this list of 36 questions that are supposed to help foster understanding between partners--and OK, some articles were calling it '36 Questions That Lead to Love'--but that's not the goal, just a potentially nice side effect. That is if he can get the hunter and angel to play along in the first place.
