    Summary

    “But you know something? If I couldn’t get you laid, at least I gave you a good first date.”

    feat: footsies at a Ruby Tuesday, stargazing, the recreation of an iconic "Dirty Dancing" scene (no, not that one—the other one), and practicing for When You're With A Girl.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “Y’know, we’re exactly a month off from the day we met,” he says, almost to himself, surprised by how tickled he is by the thought. He laughs out loud and Karen gives him what has a fighting chance at being a genuine smile. “Hey, Cas! Go figure! We’re a month early for our anniversary.”

    Cas points up at the light fixture he’s been studying. “I have a sister who looks remarkably similar to this lamp.”

    Summary

    It almost feels like, if Dean went to sleep right now, he could get it back. Like he would slip right back into the dream, and it would pick up where it left off. But Dean doesn’t even want to, now that he can see that world for what it is: a cheap hallucination, poking at all his weaknesses, going right for the soft underbelly Dean never shows.

    All that work. All that work Dean had done over the past few weeks, trying to numb himself and act like he’d forgotten about it. And now it feels like the Empty took Cas all of five minutes ago, all over again.

    Or,

    A post-15x19, forty one year-old Dean gets a taste of what twenty seven year-old Dean went through in 2x20, “What Is and What Should Never Be,” and sees how the shape of his own happiness has changed. Then life goes on, same as it ever was—except for the dreams he starts having at all hours of the day, and a familiar voice on the phone that's starting to sound a little too real.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Dean draws a breath.

    “Okay, you know in Star Wars—” is what comes out of Dean’s mouth next.

    Cas’ expression changes on a dime. Like if Cas thought he had any idea where this conversation might be headed, he sure as hell doesn’t now.

    Summary

    In the morning, Merlin knows, Arthur will don his crown again. But for now their world is only Arthur’s drowsy kisses, and Merlin tracing circles on Arthur’s bare chest, and the night outside is deep and dark and still. There are no conspiracies, no dragons, no prophecies relentlessly unraveling.

    Merlin wishes, selfishly, that dawn might never come.

    (And the dawn obeys.)

    Summary

    Unfortunately, the long walk down the dark hall gave his mind ample opportunity to review, in painfully embarrassing detail, the last few times they had been this close. Specifically: the three kisses that were haunting Merlin to the point of absolute distraction.

    ---

    Or, one kiss becomes two, which becomes three, then four, then maybe one more....
