Summary
Dean almost couldn’t believe it when he saw that huddled body swaddled in a tan trenchcoat sitting in the middle of the dungeon floor. Cas was back. After months of searching, digging through the archives to find a way to drag his ass out of the Empty, they had finally done it.
But something was wrong.
This wasn’t the Castiel that smiled up at him with a tearful goodbye after revealing his true happiest moment. This was a wild, snarling beast of a man, warped and twisted, feral thanks to the damage of the Empty. A man who would probably rip out Dean’s throat rather than confess his love.
Even when Dean breaks through that wild exterior, he discovers that Castiel still thinks he’s trapped in the hell that is the Empty. That nothing around him is real.
Dean just has to get through to him.

Summary
After Castiel confessed his love for Dean Winchester and was condemned to The Empty for eternity. After Sam and Dean Winchester save the whole damn world. (Again.) After all the people who were snapped returned, getting back to their lives never even knowing the world ended. After Sam and Eileen got together and Dean spent the required amount of time drinking himself stupid. After all that, Dean pulled Castiel back to Earth.
They may be covered in thick black ooze and years of Almosts and Maybes, but that’s all over now. They’re in the After, and in the After, they don’t have to be brave. They can choose to save each other instead.

"'You’re pretty when you cry, you know that?' Castiel says softly. Dean bites at his lip to keep control of himself. 'Let go for me Dean, it’s okay. I’ve got you. You’re safe. Come for me.'"

Summary
Twelve days on the road leaves Dean wound tight, lonely, and half out of his mind. The hunt is easy; the silence after is not. With no Sam beside him and no Cas to patch him up, he ends up alone in a shitty Nebraska motel with too many memories and too much need.
Cas’s texts don’t help.
The last one “I miss you, Dean” nearly breaks him.
Dean tries to be good. He really does. Forty three minutes of pretending he isn’t hard for the one person he’s not supposed to want. Then he gives in.
And the moment Dean whispers Cas’s name, Heaven answers.
What begins as Dean’s desperate, lonely night turns into something far more dangerous, tender, filthy, and impossible to ignore. Cas is done pretending. Dean can’t hide anymore. And nothing between them will ever be the same after this.

Summary
“I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.”
―J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the KingFor a man raised on hunting and hellfire, who'd seen angels fall and demons rise, he should’ve understood sacrifice better. Should’ve known love when it was handed to him.
Instead, he'd stood there like a coward, letting Cas fall without reaching out to catch him.
The walls, the silence, the stillness — all of it bore witness as Dean Winchester, who had carried the world on his shoulders and survived hell itself, shattered into pieces over the one thing he could never fix, never fight for, never save.-
Or, Dean grieves, grows a beard, becomes a dad without realizing it, and get's his happy ending. (Not a fucking rebar, for fuck's sakes)

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
When Mick Davies flirts with Castiel, Dean’s jealousy boils over, hard and fast. He doesn’t want to admit what it means, but Castiel isn’t letting him run this time. Not when the answer’s been written across Dean’s face for years.
A sharp-tongued argument turns into something much rougher, hands on throats, words left unsaid, and Dean finally giving in to what he’s wanted all along.
Castiel is done waiting.

Summary
Dean Winchester walks out of state prison with nothing but the clothes on his back and the ghosts of every mistake he’s ever made. Living under his brother’s roof means rules, curfews, and constant supervision—measures meant to keep him steady, to keep him clean. But loneliness is a dangerous thing, and Dean’s restlessness eventually leads him to the last place he ever thought he’d go: a church.
That’s where he meets Castiel—quiet, widowed, and hiding behind walls no one dares to climb. Dean’s never been good at boundaries, and something in Castiel’s sadness calls to him like a prayer. What begins as hesitant conversation turns into lingering glances, then late-night confessions whispered in the dark.
Dean doesn’t know if Castiel is salvation or sin—only that being near him feels like breathing for the first time. And when friendship starts to blur into something far more dangerous, both men are forced to decide whether love born in brokenness can still be holy.
**
Loneliness brought him to the church. Desire made him stay. Love might just save him.

Summary
Cas is gone and he’s never coming back. The Empty said it would take him forever, and forever is endless, like the Cas-shaped hole in Dean’s life. There’s no getting him back. No way for him to hear those three words Dean never said. Dean knows this, the same way he knows that Cas’ death was his fault.
And then suddenly, forever isn’t as endless as he thought it was. And maybe— just maybe— he can get Cas back. -

Summary
“A hunter is handcuffed to a table in an interrogation room and a pretty boy fed walks in the room.”
In Sam’s opinion, it sounds like the start of a really funny joke. But who’s laughing? Not Dean, he’s flirting. And not Spencer, he’s trying to not become a statistic on law enforcement officials who become entangled with the suspects they’re hunting.
*****
Or: five times Dean Winchester meets Spencer Reid and one time that Sam actually introduces them on purpose.

Summary
Spencer Reid is finally where he wants to be; he has a meaningful job, his own book-crammed apartment and friends that actually like him despite his quirks. His life isn’t perfect but he’s happier than he has ever been. That is, until his past catches up with him, messing everything up again. Things he would’ve preferred to keep hidden come to light and while his team frantically searches for the man who’s after their youngest member, Spencer is forced to spend a lot more time in close proximity of his best friend and (very straight) work crush, Derek Morgan, than what could possibly be good for him…

Summary
He can hear voices outside, and a sound that bears a striking resemblance to Morgan’s laughter. Forty four percent of incarcerated people have some kind of mental illness. It’s not surprising his mind is resorting to something that sounds comforting from before, he’s probably suffering some kind of break right now, in the after. Still, the memory of the sound curls itself under the throbbing of his traitorous heart trying to escape the confines of his ribcage. Perhaps there was something to be said about how the memory of Morgan’s laughter could still do this to him after all this time. Then again, this too, should be familiar. He’s always been powerless in the face of that thousand watt smile, more so when it was directed at him – toothy, and blinding.
or, Derek makes breakfast for Spencer and his mother. Somewhere in between sharing meals and showing up, they find their way back to each other.

Summary
Spencer isn't sure he ever really knew a time before wanting to die.
Logically he knows there must have been. Children aren't inherently born with that desire. But he can't pinpoint a specific moment where he became aware of it. Where he didn't have the List.
Now it's simply a fact of life. Get up. Go to work. Come home. Consult the List, the Pros and Cons of continued existence. Make coffee. Have dinner. Sleep.
Spencer had always found just enough reasons to keep living, tenuous though they were at times. Then Emily dies.

Summary
“If you don’t want me to go with you...then don’t go, Dean,” the ex-angel finishes with a note of casualness in his voice, as if the decision is simple.
Unfortunately, Dean Winchester is nothing if not stubborn.
He sucks on his teeth for a moment, roughly picks up his duffel, and slings it over his shoulder as he storms past Cas in the doorway with a bite of, “Go get in the damn car,”.
(TLDR: Cas is rescued from the empty, human. Dean wants to stop hunting because he loves Cas, but can't figure out how to let himself; however, he doesn't want Cas to hunt either, because he loves him. Conflict, angstiness, and love ensues.)

Summary
Now that Chuck is gone and Cas is back, they can finally just live their lives. Dean is still trying to figure out what that means for him and if he can trust Cas to stay this time. He’s also trying to figure out where Cas is getting the random assortment of objects he keeps pulling out of his sleeve. He always seems to have exactly what Dean needs. Or maybe the truth is that Cas is exactly what Dean needs.
--------------------------------
Cas flicks his hand in a motion that Dean finds familiar, the same one that always produces his angel blade. But instead of the silvery-white gleam of his signature weapon, a little book of matches falls into his palm. He hands it off to Dean. It’s from a strip club in St. Louis, judging by the mirrored silhouettes of two curvaceous women and the address printed on it.
“Got something to tell me?” Dean chuckles.
“Yes. I agree you’re getting too old for digging up graves. Although I assume you were asking where I got the matches. I’m not going to tell you.”
Dean gapes at him. “What? Why?”
“Because the expression on your face is hilarious,” Cas says, and saunters off toward the car.
