    Summary

    So, the first thing that happens is Castiel comes back.

    ~~~

    "Right," Dean says eventually, gruffly. He looks down at his shoes. "I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, man. It's—you know, yours. Do your thing, love who you love, whatever. I can't really stop you from loving me, if that's what you've decided to do, but I don't—I can't—"

    "I know," Castiel murmurs, still just smiling a little, not looking heartbroken at all. "Don't worry about it, Dean, that's all I ask."

    "So we're—" Dean risks a glance up, swallowing thickly. "We're good?"

    Castiel hums. "We're good."

    Summary

    A Curse of Obedience is cast on Dean. Dean finds himself forced to obey every “order” given to him (very literally). Worse, the witch made sure that he can’t even tip off Sam or Cas with what’s going on. Will either of them figure it out? Or will Dean be stuck doing what they say (even if it isn’t what they mean)?

    Summary

    Castiel hated pledging for Theta Alpha Psi. So much. Maybe, just maybe, he could be such a god-awful pledge, that they would kick him out before pledge week was over. In 10 days.

    Dean did not want to let down the other Theta Alpha Psi boys. So, when he's forced to charm one of the new pledges into falling in love with him, he really had zero choice but to say yes. Maybe the boys would leave him alone if he could get this random kid to crush on him before pledge week was up. In 10 days.


    "So, Dean, you think you can do it?”

    “Yeah, man, it’s not that hard. It’s just like flirting with a chick, right?”

    Dick grumbles, and sets off. Soon, they all begin to depart, Dean drags his shit up to his room, and lays down on the bed. He sighs deeply. He glances at the piece of paper in his hands. He just had to do this until Friday. Which was… nine days away, now.

    Nine days to get this poor pledge to fall in love with him.

    What the fuck was he getting himself into?

    Summary

    When Buck, a Paralympic sprinter, agrees to go on Dancing With the Stars, he wonders if he's just made the worst decision of his life. But his love life is dead, his social life even more dead, and he doesn't know what to do with his life in the aftermath of the Paralympics, so why not jump headfirst into this opportunity?

    Eddie has been a professional dancer on the show for years, but after a recent divorce and a disappointing showmance, he's fallen out of love with his job, with dancing, with himself. He has no hope for the next season, until he meets one Buck Buckley.

    The pair feel an instant connection, but will it be enough to see them through the trials and tribulations of the next eleven weeks?

    Summary

    “What can I get you?” Buck asks, wiping a spill on the counter, before flicking the rag back into the sink.

    When there’s no immediate answer, he glances up, and finds himself staring straight into a pair of big brown eyes that look equal parts startled and lost.

     

    Or; Buck’s a bartender at a gay bar, and Eddie’s recently out and blushes far too easily.

    Buck makes him a drink that matches the pretty pink colour of his cheeks.
