    Summary

    Castiel Novak is relatively happy living his solitary life as a Starbucks Barista. He lives alone with a cat named Hamburger, and he has one (1) emotional support friend, Gabriel.

    Unfortunately, he is plagued by the fact that some guy (see: a random hot dude named 'Dean') is giving out Castiel's phone number as his own. And he's been doing it for months.

    So, of course, when Castiel's at work and a hot stranger gives him his own phone number for the Starbucks Rewards Program... well... it doesn't go well.

    Summary

    A demon is loose in the Institute and possessing and killing Shadowhunters. Alec falls victim to it and ends up spiraling while trying to right his perceived wrongs in the most unhealthy ways possible. His friends and family try to save him before it's too late.

    An angsty Alec alternate version of the demon possession and fallout of ep204 through ep209. All changes made are for the purpose of making Alec feel worse or adding a little more Malec into my life. A little more hurt and a little more comfort than canon.

    Summary

    "Davey," Jack says, rolling his name ponderously, like a detective who might have just discovered a vital clue, "You ain't never had a girl before, have you?"

    "No," David whispers, hoping against hope that-

    "You ain't...You ain't never wanted one, neither."

    It's not a question. David could protest, lie, rail against the slander. But he can see in Jack's eyes the conclusion is already drawn and framed, just waiting to be exhibited to the world. He braces himself against the wall and nods.

    "Right," Jack grits out. Then he winces, and clears his throat.

    Bewilderingly, he also starts to blush.
