Summary
Human souls are built much like angels, made of light and colour and intent. Lovely little wings that can never fly and wide gazing eyes that can see eternity and hands made to hold their loved ones close. Dean doesn't even seem to notice when his soul reaches out to hold Castiel's hand, but to the angel, it means everything. It's the closest to being loved he thinks he'll ever get. But what will happen when all that remains of Dean is his soul?

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
Dean has been working as a getaway driver for Crowley for 14 years, and has survived by developing a few simple rules: always pick the right music, keep an eye on the time, never give out his real name, and most importantly, make no personal connections with anyone on the job.
Making no personal connections with anyone new is easy when he has difficulty talking in his own words.
Enter Cas, who, in order to pay for his nephew Jack’s life-saving medical treatment, decides to break bad by joining Crowley’s operations. Unlike most of his brothers, he’s new to the world of crime, but their driver’s skills and quiet demeanor have a way of reassuring him.
Throughout the course of several months, their rules fall to the wayside as they fall for each other, each unable to say the words ‘I love you’ for differing reasons.
Cas’ past family life complicates things when Lucifer comes around wanting to know how Cas is getting the money to pay for Jack’s treatment. Everything comes to a head when Dean is kidnapped for one final job.

Summary
Emma can feel the waters at her feet, ready to pull her under. She doesn't have the two coins to cross and there's nothing waiting for her. Except a moment of honesty saves her, a belief in real honor entrusts her to her father, and she finds herself the charge of not Amazon sisters but hunter brothers. Dean wants her, and it's enough to make her own legend. Slice Girls alternative creating a rewrite of canon events where Dean grows to be a dad, gets the courage to admit he loves Castiel, and pagan gods take the chance to get involved in the boy's lives as much as they're allowed in an attempt to fix some issues they have with how the world's been getting run lately.
Gabriel hates getting pulled into all the politics he's been trying to avoid since he took Loki as a host and Sam just finds the whole mess a headache, neither helped when they just can't stop ending up in bed together. And in it all Crowley just won't keep his selfish head down and make life easy for anyone.
All in all, Emma's life is going to get really complicated, but when has anything been normal for a Winchster? Adding in the normal drama of the life of the Greek gods? It was just asking for trouble.- Language:

Summary
Dean presented as an omega at twelve, and has spent his life in a privately funded omega house. Now, at twenty-six, he's a known troublemaker. And, he's the oldest omega at Sonny's. He needs a suitable alpha, but he doesn't want one. He has, in fact, fought tooth and nail not to have one.
Castiel Novak, eldest son of Zachariah and Naomi Novak, maintains the large, ancestral estate, Tor-Valen. He is far more interested in his bees and providing for his servants than tying himself down with an omega. But, his parents insist. To comply, Castiel sends his butler, Meg, to specifically buy Dean. Because, everyone in town knows Dean Winchester isn't some cowering, conniving omega.

Summary
Dean is fine. The way he sees it, things are simple. He had a house and a family and food in his stomach, and now he doesn't. And yeah, that's a downer, but he's not going to let that stop him from being fine, because he's in control of the situation. He definitely doesn't need anyone to save him. And it's not like the weird guy with the nice butt from down the road is the knight-in-shining-armor type, anyway.

Summary
The briefing was simple: ‘Stand guard over the Michael Sword until the battle is ready to commence. Await further instructions.’
Castiel doesn’t mind working security duty; he was briefed shortly after the initial salvation of the Sword from the pit, and again before taking up his position. He knows what to do. However, it’s easy to forget that the green room isn’t real. Time moves differently there, the space ever-changing to make a prison of mountains, cathedrals, salt flats, orchards, and whatever Castiel was led to believe about Heaven’s greatest weapon—Dean Winchester is something entirely unexpected.

Summary
Castiel's spent most of his adult life keeping his head down and staying out of trouble. This is a deliberate choice on his part, because as a cousin of the King, he'd rather stay unimportant and forgotten. This changes abruptly when King Michael decides that he has a better use for Castiel: he is to be wed to a noble member of the neighboring Republic, as part of an agreement between their two nations.
Castiel knows he has to obey, but that doesn't mean he won't rebel in what small ways he can. Unexpectedly, his actions end up having far-reaching consequences.

Summary
Existing rather than living, accident survivor Dean is offered a job playing a Knight Of Hell Boss character in his favorite videogame 'Moondoor'. The salary, the free VR rig, the opportunity to play games for a living... where's the downside? But when an offer from Roman Enterprises seems too good to be true, chances are the gift horse is going to have very sharp teeth.
##
Sam was too busy gaping with shock to say anything coherent, so Gabriel dove in and took over. “So, um, what was that?” he asked Castiel.
Castiel just blinked at him uncomprehendingly, raising one hand to touch his mouth with a puzzled frown.
“You and Dean,” Gabriel clarified. “What was that all about?”
“Dean. Uh. Dean hugged me,” Castiel said, his expression cool but his eyes shifting awkwardly away from the cat’s penetrating glare.
“With his mouth,” Gabriel drawled.
Castiel patted his lips again, guiltily, but then looked defiant as he stated firmly, “Yes. He hugged me with his mouth.”

There is no such thing as a guarantee when it comes to war.
The outcome's known. Why try?
Return your rusty sword to battered sheath,
bow your head and bend your stubborn knee. Why
take the field when you cannot win the war?
But Harry -- he went down to Agincourt.

Summary
In which Dean Winchester gets an unsolicited dick pic from an unknown sender which is both totally not disappointing in that it's a really nice dick pic, and incredibly disappointing in that it's clearly a downloaded picture of his favorite porn star.
There's absolutely no way it's actually this porn star sending it to him, right?
Right?
